    Well that varies depending on incarnation, but even when she's accepted her appearance, that doesn't mean that the average person is supposed to see past the veneer. But yes, NR clearly wasn't trying to make a character furries would get off to. At least, I don't think they were...

    I realize that I don't exactly hold conventional standards of beauty, but I'm not convinced that the anthro Cheetah (ie: "not just a girl in a cheetah suit") was ever supposed to be attractive in an "idealized" way. Maybe to some semi-furry fetishists, but that's hardly "idealized beauty." That...

    Okay, but unlike physique, an "idealized" facial sculpt is entirely subjective. Personally, I think the wider faces are more "ideal" than the narrow, jaw-focused faces depicted in early western comics. I can agree that making an overweight Spider-Man merely to be "PC" makes no sense since he is...

    There's very little consistency in the sculpt of Satarfire's face over the years between various comic artists. The most consistent features are the generic qualities that pretty much every female character has (high cheekbones, big lips, small nose). I'm not particualrly bothered by the fact...

    Yes, but that doesn't make it look any better. If a game had to rely on sprites made with MS paint due to budgetary reasons and the end product was ugly as a result, then it's still ugly, regardless what processes were involved in its creation. I'm not going to forgive bad visuals because...

    I'm not particularly fond of Studio Ghibli works (though that's primarily a result of their storytelling rather than art style), but I wouldn't at all say that Zelda BotW's visuals are comparable to SG's. The screens you provided from Ni no Kuni are colorful, detailed, imaginative, and have...

    @ KasumiLover69 Incessantly whining like a bitch on your own page is one thing. Abusing an utterly unrelated status post from someone else simply to grouse is completely unacceptable.

    It's nothing about your screenshot in particular. I've seen many screens and gameplay footage and the game always looks ugly without fail. The art style is incredibly generic, nothing contains any interesting detail, the colors are washed, and the scaling makes Link and all monsters feel like...

    Everything in BOTW looks very washed and undetailed, and not in an impressively artistic way. I honestly never understood why it's visuals don't bother it's absurdly large playerbase. I have literally never seen a single impressive screen from it.

    Yes. Some people find the game boring because they choose to cheese every fight with Sloth talisman, shuriken spams or the dual swords instead of actually learning weapon moves/abilities, stance benefits, enemy attack patterns, ki management, etc. If you bother to actually learn the game, and...

    You seem to spent too much time flying (or occasionally running) in strange ways that don't emulate the way a tense Dragonball fight should occur, and it causes collision detection to be a bizarre guessing game. Every character feels like a telekinetic jedi smacking people with punches several...

    Because they are matching the framerate with the standard framerate used in anime as opposed to the 60fps the actual game runs at. But it doesn't wind up looking like the anime because the anime uses motion blur and other effects to compensate for the lower framerate, whereas this game's...

    @KasumiLover69 This is why you are unable to contribute anything substantive to this thread. Your screenshots aren't meant to spur intelligent discussion or highlight specific elements of art design. I gave it a pass with the Tekken stuff because theoretically you could argue that you were...

    Everyone wants to be a super-saiyan. But speaking of, Dragonball Fighter Z is looking damn good from a visual standpoint. I always liked the graphical tech behind Guilty Gear, but didn't care much for the game's character/stage designs. But, as I've mentioned before with Dragon Quest, I'm a big...

    Yes, but it's a particular type of bloom abuse. The "dark" areas are still so bright they look like full-brighted mid-range gray textures only to "contrast" with the same shit plus absurd levels of bloom. They're "contrasting" "bright" with "even brighter." It's dumb. There are a few...

    The Last Guardian is actually quite ugly, IMO. It hurts my eyes to look at. I think it has something to do with the way the lighting is set-up. Everything is too washed and shiny, much like Ubisoft games.

    The double boss mission are, by and large, complete bullshit. If they are indeed adding a new difficulty with the new DLC and they want me to complete those missions all over again on the new difficulty for a trophy I will not be happy (same applies to Twilight missions, since camping the...
