Screenshots in store page look like ♥♥♥♥

[KoTL]

This looks like a 2013 game, i know this game is beautiful. Why did they chose such poor screenshots idk

[shakeyourbunny]

Nothing else found for clown baiting?

I agree. The quality of the screenshots is not good. I hope the game will look better, otherwise there's a serious problem.
I even checked the name of the game on google because on console it was more beautiful than this, the ugly screenshots put me in doubt ><

Even on PS5 this game looks terrible. Visuals aren't what Sukerpunch was focused on. It was the narrative and gameplay.

Really?
When it first came out, I remember watching a few gameplay videos; perhaps my memory is playing tricks on me. ^^'

This is a game that was released in 2018... on consoles. The visuals aren't anywhere near as good looking as you seem to think they are. I've played it on a PS5 at 4K. There are objectively better looking games than this.

Where are you getting the 2018 release from?? It was released July of 2020. I'm aware there are games better looking than this but in no way is it ugly. Could you describe what you don't find appealing? Genuinely curious.

It simply looks dated compared to what's available now. The only thing it has going for it, is good use of lighting. I'm more than aware that it was an intentional choice to forego top notch textures as this game takes a ton of inspiration from Kurosawa sensei's work. However, I think don't think that was the greatest decision.

Can agree that the textures look like it's from 2015, but that's probably also to compensate for the 1000 grass blades within a 20 foot radius and the 100 leaves flying every minute. It just vexes me as to why you need a top of the line PC for the very high preset.

Nixxes ports are ♥♥♥♥, and their track record as far as optimization goes, ain't great.

Don't seem to be many complaints with their most recent work on the "Horizon Forbidden West Complete Edition" port, unless you have something else to share.

This one says as they glaze a multi-billion dollar corporation, and invalidate criticism aimed toward them...

Considering your instantaneous thought is to invalidate what others have to say, I'd say I've contributed more than you have...

I think I remembered the graphics looking a lot better than it actually is, because when I now look up videos of 4k gameplay, the graphics really isn't all that impressive.

But even taking that into consideration, I do agree that whoever took the screenshots seems to have done so haphazardly; they actually make the game look a lot worse than it actually is.

I wouldn't judge a game purely by its graphics. It's the content and the gameplay that determine whether a game is good or just boring eye candy without depth.

Back then I played on 8 bit home computers like the C=64 and Amiga (16/32bit). On the C=64, most of the games looked like a truckload of crap, but the gameplay was able to captivate the player and keep them entertained for a long time. Pixel art is still popular today but there is no comparison to a sprite with a maximum point size of 24 × 21 pixels (HiRes) and a memory size of 63 bytes at a screen resolution of 320 × 200 pixels.
THAT is bad graphics. :D
