The games you're showing have nothing special, it's just good lighting / textures off market. There is nothing complicated to display, almost no entitites, very small maps etc ...
- taeric 6y agoNot wrong, but does it negate the quality of the games? Were they fun? More telling, could they have sold better with a massive marketing campaign?
- MikeSchurman 6y agoWe're talking about graphics though, and those games are nothing special graphics wise. They look like something released 5-10 years ago, definitely not top end. This is not to slight the developers, they look good! It's always easier to make something of of the quality of 5-10 years ago. I disagree with the grandest-parent... top-tier will always be hard, for the foreseeable future.
- taeric 6y agoHmm. I don't want to find myself defending that it is easy. That is not my belief, either. I don't think a lot of the complexity that goes into graphics is essential, though. I do think top end will remain top end. However, I also think many games can be done without putting graphics rendering at the top of the budget. Axiom Verge is a recent find of mine that I feel hits this well. Thimbleweed Park is another good one here. Which is not to say that either of those were easy. I doubt they were.
