Tron Bonne Moment

[@GusOfTheDorks]

When I was 12 I had no clue how Megaman could turn down her offer. A girlfriend, robots, and I get to be a pirate. Heck yeah I want to join.

Megaman legends with uncapped resolution and texture filtering looks amazing unironically. I can't believe it's low poly style in combination with it's bright colors hasn't been emulated more often in our modern indie game scene

[@nobodyinparticular9640]

Yeah, like, I've seen maybe a handful of games that go for a style like this. Most games that emulate a PS1 look are all horror that think low-poly hard-to-make-out monsters = scary :/

@@empty5013 when has art direction ever been easy? I can think of a couple of games with a really similar style in direction that could work with megaman legends' style

[@IanDerp26]

It’s kind of insane that the best modern example of this style is YIIK: A Postmodern RPG of all things. Despite how insanely mediocre that game is, the art really is great.

[@supersonicfan325]

Not the same art style as this at all but an indie game that comes out later this year "the big catch" I recommend looking at its trailer, strong ps1 art direction

The voice acting just gives the 90's anime vibe and I actually love it

[@ImmaLittlePip]

There's a charm to 90s anime English Voice acting that can't be beat

[@ScrambledAndBenedict]

It worked for me, because all these games take place in non-contemporary worlds. Their worlds are so much different than ours that it makes more sense to me that they'd talk differently rather than exactly like we do. Having weird inflections, pauses, saying things like Jill Sandwich and DIE MONSTER and HAVE AT YOU SNAKE could just be the way they talk in these worlds.

[@valemontgomery9401]

It’s so cringe but I can’t even hate it. It’s just so nostalgic. I get teleported to my granny’s house where I occasionally flipped onto the 4kids channel and remembered it existed

[@associatelordgodfrey]

a lot of the old English VAs had prior training/experience from theater acting, acting in B-movies, or prior VA work for animation. they weren't the annoying clique of idiots we have today, or "influencers" being paid to show up because they think it'll make more younger people like the game more.

Holy damn, those facial emotions just gives so much to the personality.

[@soldierdaddy31b]

This game was a huge part of my summer in 1999; the following year, I'd play MML2. Never thought that would be the end of that wonderful series!

[@deraile]

It's all about art direction. Realism has nothing to do with quality, it's how you apply the style you're going for, be it realistic, cartoony, painterly, low poly, etc. Limitations brings resourcefulness and for sure we had a lot of great instances of great art direction in retro games (lots of bad too but that's par for the course). At the end of the day it's about preferences, but yeah to me this gane has very enjoyable visuals, thanks to great art direction (especially the facial animations (texture swaps) are very effective here). Another great example and perhaps my favorite of that era were the N64 Zeldas. The visuals in those games (esp. MM) are amazing at conveing the gloomy/weird/creepy ambiance. I don't find then ugly at all. Other than personal bias towards modern/realistic games I really don't understand this sentiment, it has the looks of its time and most of all it achieves what it sets to. The music/sound ambiance helps a ton too, though. It's the whole that's truly effective, and those games have a pretty solid and unified package, as far as art direction and conveying feeling through immersion/the environment goes. Love the voice acting in this game though. Coupled with the facial animations, they certainly were a highlight of my time playing MegaMan 64 (finally played through MML2 recently, also dope! Misadventures is next and I'm really curious to see how that one plays. Haven't gotten to it yet).

[@hawshimagical]

zelda ocarina of time and twilight princess looked so earthy organic and natural while cartoonish. people love the look of wind waker and breath of the wild but i cant help wishing they didnt abandon that old art style
