Realistic games aren't always grey

Definitly. Not all realistic looking games look brown/grey, but most do.

This is a discussion coming from how varied and colorful MK8 graphics are. Not quite sure why it needed its own thread.

Your insistence that Driveclub and FH2 were grey made me do it, though you weren't the only one saying this.

I posted pics from both the games you called grey, and the only thing which is grey in them are the clouds, the roads and the occasional grey paint on a car.

So, we must retrocede in the argument because you werent happy with the conclusion. It hasnt changed. Those games are predominantly grey and brown with a prevalent dominance of dry tones. This is a fact, you just have to see the % of the image they represent and the lack of color variety and quantity compared to mario kart.

But this is a different thread and the point is that not all look grey and brown, and that is very true, but those games arent good examples. Bring out a Xenoblade X, an FFXV for example, and you see a much richer varied pallete. Straight from real life rips are boring. If that was the measure of good graphics then you are comparing a painting to a photograph. I suppose a photograph is more realistic, but its not necessarely the better looking.
