Capitalism destroying another form of media through endless chasing of increased profits and grinding developers into dust taking away any creative agency and outsourcing jobs.
“It must be the photorealism”
Genuinely sick of this take. I’m just gonna start blaming cell shading for the decline of the games industry. Marx said graphics style is why nobody buys videogames anymore and why nobody bought bodycam when it came out cos it was too photorealistic and took the devs 60 billion years to make. Unless you have a company with 4 trillion dollars to piss into 75 layers of management and 1 offshore developer we can’t put 20 trillion triangles to craft a photorealistic model of my ball sack for the next live service game that nobody working on actually wants to make. It’s literally impossible it can’t be done the photos are too real.
Can we stop talking like we have no concept of how anything works please? Might as well just start saying game developers are overpaid at this rate
Oh and by this logic good solid art direction is free and simple right? Only photorealism takes a long time to implement? Damn when no art style game slow, when art style game fast!
