      Don’t forget the pixel art where the less pixels there are, the more art it is.

      I wish i fucking joked but it is absolutely the thing now, just compare a lot of modern pixel games with the early 90’s graphics.

        I mean I guess it depends huh ? Im pretty sure some games with bad pixel art look that way cause the devs are just bad at art.

          Naturally that was the thing back then too, but back then they had to fit in 320x240 and 640x480 and good games did that damn good. While nowadays i am constantly seeing games like Loop Hero or Songs of Conquest (i mean just compare this shit to HoMM2!) hailed as good when they are butt ugly, or mass of the indie games which despite having high resolution and gazillion of real pixels are built to look like they have minimum pixels possible.

          Modern pixels are not even really pixels
