The Art Style and Graphics Discussion

I'm only playing my PS3 /FFVIIPC so I have no screens to take lol

I really love the graphics, it has a SC vibe to it and everything looks so solid and the stages are beautiful. Lili's new outfit is gorgeous(except for the hideous no heel boots...), and even the clothes look as if this could be in SC with how more detailed and homely they look. Lili's hair still looks bad, but as long as they keep it long and free flowing and down to her waist, I can live with it.
Oh....and if you didn't mind, I swiped that Lili pic so I could use it as my avatar.

I almost want to play this game. Almost. Like Tekken's movement feels like ass to me.

It is pretty clunky, but only with certain characters. I've seen a video with no compression and it actually moves much smoother than before. I still like it though, it was my main go to Fighter before I discovered DOA all those years ago...

Finally know what the game looks like can you stop complaining about them skipping the cutscenes when they play eh.

Wait tekkens movement feels like ass hmm. With Koreans philosphy on the game like whiff punishment i dont know what your talking about.

See thats the thing. The movement feels un-intuitive to me and many others. Sure an Apache helicopter has excellent mobility and whiff punishment but I really don't feel like obtaining a mechanical engineering degree to drive one.

They need to add a smooth walking forward animation for the characters, they look like injured horses repeating the same looped step and it looks strange. They already added a new walking backwards animation.

 

[UpSideDownGRUNT]

They finally upgraded teh character models, Lili and Asuka actually don't look like men in drag anymore xD it seems the stages took a hit though similar vain to DOA5 the floor texture in the Brian Fury pics looks more blurred than when i take off my glasses. Good thing you wont see it in motion.

im really impressed by the level of detail that's going into KH3. there are tons of times you'll see something like "they didn't have to do that" but they did and its incredible. small affects like Sora bumping into goofy, the fire leaving trails as it travels over ground, textures on everything. id be 100% on this game if they could just fix those ugly models.

everyone looks for the super realistic games for graphics so its interesting seeing that same level of detail applied to something more cartoonish.

 

[Chapstick]

Oh look more DA:I pics

^I really love the lighting

^I feel like they had trypophobia in mind when making this thing, hopefully none of you have it

Also I mentioned before any race other than humans constantly shifting heights in cutscenes, here's an example of my dwarf inquisitor compared to Iron Bull in a cutscene and in the field

(ignore my inquisitor's dumb facial expression in the left pic) The inquisitor is even a little bit taller than that left pic shows because he's farther away from the camera. I wish I was on PC and could use that free roam camera to see myself levitating.

Cool graphical comparison of FFVII and FFVII Remake:

I never played FFVII, so I wonder if I should play it first before the remake reaches us or if I better don't. Can't decide if it will ruin things for me or make it better. XD

 

[Russian-chiropractic19]

If you don't play it before it comes out you probably won't be able to.

On another note:
I got Assassins Creed Unity (a little late, I know) and I have to say it is a very pretty game...

I'm especially taken in by the beautiful architecture in the game. There are perfect copies inside and out (like Notre Dame or Sainte Chapelle) and there are buildings that are just inspired by the originals (the Louvre and Palais du Luxembourg) but are just as beautifully and intricately designed by the very talented artists of Ubisoft.

Here's for example the Palais du Luxembourg. I've vistited this amazing early baroque palace in reality and I know a little about styles of architecture, so I can tell you, that the real thing looks pretty different, especially from the inside.

The grand staircase:

Some random halls:

And then there's the amazing main hall:

It's some kind of baroque on steroids, more similar to late 19th century historicism (baroque revival or Beaux Arts), like the famous Opéra Garnier in Paris. Nontheless or even exactly because of that I very much enjoyed walking around this palace and taking everything in.

That looks amazing (and like months of work) I need to go to France one day.

Is Assassins Creed Unity any good because wasn't it full of glitches when it first came out?

 

[UpSideDownGRUNT]

It's very mediocre, not one of the better titles, I hear Syndicate is better.

 

[Chapstick]

He probably means you won't want to play it with the huge drop in graphics and more old school fighting system after playing the new one

It's an okay game. It isn't as bad as some guys are making it out to be on the internet. It's overall score is 7 on Metacritic, which combines all valid international reviews of the game. That's literally an okay and above average score. With all the patches it already got it's perfectly playable right now and apart of some weirdly behaving peasants in the street (in a crowd of many hundreds at times) I didn't encounter any too big of a deal glitches. Certainly nothing game breaking. So if you are interested in the game or maybe just the beautifully and pretty accurately depicted Paris of the late 18th century, go on get it. It's already pretty cheaply available now. I got it for 30 €.

But I would certainly advise you to visit France/Paris yourself. I'm every year at least once in the city (mostly around pre-Christmas period) with my family and I still absolutely love it.

Here are a few more pics that I made:

Here you can see from left to right: Le Panthéon, Notre Dame, Sainte Chapelle, Palais de Justice, Hôtel de Ville (city hall), the Louvre and the pic is made from the Bastille which is gone today of course. Everything you see is freely explorable.

The very accurately depicted Sainte Chappelle, a masterpiece of high gothic architecture:

Stunning experience!

It's very mediocre, not one of the better titles, I hear Syndicate is better.

Yes, Syndicate is the overall better game, but graphically it can't hold a candle to it's predecessor Unity. That's why it runs a lot smoother with far fewer glitches, lol.

 

[Jadeinchains]

Thanks. Maybe I will go check it out then for cheap and see if I like it or not. A few small glitches wouldn't bother me. What originally stopped me from getting it was the large amount of reports of game breaking bugs. However if they have been patched out now might be the time to get it.

PS: The games graphics look amazing especially those stained glass windows.
