What do they mean by this?
- SethMLarson 10mo agoPlayers that don't know the technical term "billboarding" might use this as a way to say that the images of the food are "flat" unlike the rest of the 3D modeled environment. Just a suspicion!
- novov 10mo agoAlso that they use a more realistic style compared to much of the in-game art assets.
- jezzamon 10mo agoI can also be used for derogatory connotations; Another example is for Smash Brothers specifically, the Byleth character's ultra move has a flat image of a character in their game and people call it "png sothis" (character name) to suggest that it's low-effort or not well made
- jsheard 10mo agoJPEG has morphed into a synonym for photo, I guess. See also: Ace Combat 7s infamous JPEG dog. https://youtu.be/IXB1W8va3eg https://youtu.be/IXB1W8va3eg
- hamdingers 10mo agoHuh, Ace Combat sure has changed since I last played it in the 90s.
- efilife 10mo agoIsn't it about compression artifacts?
