@BigUkena The shiny elitist are weird man

[Miikoto🇻🇦 @Moth865]

The worst sentiment around remakes is the idea that a remake allows developers to create the “true form” of whatever game is being remade. People act like developers were always imagining unreal engine looking games and any artistic expression in the original game was an accident

[Shiny Hunter Roy @ShinyHunterRoy]

A lot of people these days don't seem to realize that criticism is just repackaged opinions/suggestions.

I could tell you how I feel about a game but at the end of the day you're the one buying and playing it.

[Shiny Hunter Roy @ShinyHunterRoy]

Do I think the new visuals look ugly as hell ? 100%

But other people say they enjoy it so I'd say let them have it and enjoy themselves, I get where you're coming from but I've learned that not every game needs to cater to me specifically.

[PotatoMcWhiskey @PotatoMcWhiskey]

I think the worst part about how awful the OOT remake art fumble is how many people are defending it. Once upon a time we could have bullied these game companies into fixing their mistakes but people are just soydiving for the pre-order button while dismissing every criticism.

[Shiny Hunter Roy @ShinyHunterRoy]

When something is too clean, too "perfect" it can feel sterile and unnatural.

I really Don't enjoy the visuals because its trying to look as realistic as possible in a fantasy setting like I'm looking at a life action film of a fairytale.

[Shiny Hunter Roy @ShinyHunterRoy]

Imagine drawing a circle, it won't be perfect but ppl can tell you hand drew it. The more you try to make it look perfect the more ppl will think you used a circle tool to make it, so what was the point?

[Zelda Universe @ZeldaUniverse]

What are your honest opinions about the Ocarina of Time remake?

[Shiny Hunter Roy @ShinyHunterRoy]

Like y'all know puppets are typically seen as scary and creepy ( in Western media ) where there's countless movies of creepy killer puppets.

Not to mention if you have a phobia of puppets, like this is such a turn off.

[Shiny Hunter Roy @ShinyHunterRoy]

Is this supposed to make me like the design or hate it more ?

[elf 𖥔 ݁ @thinkinelf]

Apparently some of the inspo for the oot remake is the japanese puppets. And if true then their design decisions make sense. Like the enlarged eyes and overall long baby faces.

Its such a gorgeous concept. And if you can, read the thread. Has a lot of awesome info about it.

@digiorpoke ?

[Shiny Hunter Roy @ShinyHunterRoy]

We didn't sit through 5 generations of ppl hating 3D pokemon and praising 2D sprites for y'all to just randomly start saying you enjoy the idea of 3D pokemon

[Luca @can_aydmr]

hmmmm

[Shiny Hunter Roy @ShinyHunterRoy]

@epichexmania Same, I like 2D & 3D pokemon but there is such a thing as " too detailed " to the point where art direction and stylized charm starts to fade.

Like, I don't want a mainline pokemon game to look like pokken tournament with DLSS 5

[Shiny Hunter Roy @ShinyHunterRoy]

@upliftoptimisic " I personally didn't say or think that so the group you're talking about doesn't exist. "

[Shiny Hunter Roy @ShinyHunterRoy]

The new Zelda game is getting clowned on so hard they gotta compare it to a 7yr old game on a 9yr old console to feel good about themselves 💀

[Sekiam @SekiamPKM]

Llevo toda la tarde rayado con esta comparación…

Se mire por donde se mire, es absurdo que Pokémon no esté a la altura en 2026 😔

[Shiny Hunter Roy @ShinyHunterRoy]

@can_aydmr Hmmmm

[Shiny Hunter Roy @ShinyHunterRoy]

@green_l0ver @can_aydmr It's really funny too because the day WIWA's trailer dropped literally no one was saying it looked bad.

[Shiny Hunter Roy @ShinyHunterRoy]

I'm actually really appreciative that Gamefreak enhanced their visuals while also maintaining an aesthetically pleasing art style that feels natural and not weirdly hyper realistic.

[Luca @can_aydmr]

hmmmm

[rohan :) @rohanbooo]

The entire "nintendo hire this man" joke was about soulless unreal engine realism without any art direction. you're missing the point of those memes and reporting your own media illiteracy if you apply it to a game that has art direction bursting from the seams in absurd excess

[Shiny Hunter Roy @ShinyHunterRoy]

Funny how "criticism" isn't "criticism" anymore when it's something you care about

[🖤💎 classic hash (FF n Tales arc)💎🖤🍉 @NorthwardManic]

"Focus, L"
"It looks like AI"
"Nintendo hired that man"
"It looks like it was out through DLSS5"
"Grok-arina of Time"
"Somebody get that one Breaking Bad video"

[Shiny Hunter Roy @ShinyHunterRoy]

Genuinely what was wrong with Botw/Totk's art style ?
