Skyrim with mods can have nice looking environments.

This

None of the environments I truly want to see don't exist yet AFAIK

Speaking of environments I fucking love them so much I love abandon looking areas thats been overturned by nature and I love cybercity playgrounds

I love old hidden temples that're cozily packed between a lot of trees

I really dont know why I'm focusing on Character art for vidya I love environments more...

Whats wrong with insects?

I just want a mountain that actually feels like a goddamn mountain and not a pointy hill. Like, a fucking mountain that is by itself the size of an entire 'zone'.

Speaking of forests, they are never dense enough. Stupid archaic character movement, can't have anything that requires anything more complicated than walking.

>>263798905
I like lush forests too, especially North Eastern US forests. REmake and Outbreak File 2 had pretty good forest areas, but they weren't big enough.

>What kind of environments do you like to see in your preferred genre of video games?
I like fantasy settings the most, with lush forests, mystic ruins, and creepy dungeons. Cozy towns in the middle of forests with trees in them. All the good shit.

Sci Fi settings also can be cool, but it takes a shit ton amount of detail to make them really convincing and giving you the feel to actually live in them.

>>263801790
Can you make it any brighter and blurrier?

>>263798905

I just want a really big grassy field that actually takes time to get from one side to the other.

>>263801878

It took me a while to come around to insects but they're breddy cool and useful if your an art person. Humans steal natures OC for their designs

I only really like beetles though

>>263802230

I want this too

I want a character that has some extreme mobility mechanics to make it seem like It WOULD take a while to get from point A to point B in that field
Slow ass characters in big areas is stupid
Extremely mobile characters in tiny areas is even fucking stupider

Boiling Point.

It's an open world game filled with a huge forested country, with random factions wars in the middle of said forest and forest snakes.

Have you ever had a house centipede skitter up your leg out of nowhere?
Have you ever had dirt daubers shit fury all over your house?
Did you enjoy it when wasps built nests on and claimed your porch for themselves?
How did you take it when you saw bees crawling into holes in your porch ceiling?
What did you think of the ants that built several 3 feet deep colonies in your back yard?

Everyone should look at Feng Zhu's work or watch him paint
Hes makes great environment stuff for vidya and movies.
I wish hed go beyond the loosey production stage with some of them but they're still good

>>263802981
I do, have you seriously never been to a real desert? Sand dunes, oasis's, snakes and all that neat shit?
Nothing feels better than scorching hot sand beneath your soft feet, and feeling as if you're being sandblasted when the wind picks up

I don't know what you consider large, but a large chunk of the first Crysis game takes place in a forest.

>>263803039
Huntsmen are great, cunts track down and fuck up every other spider.
True bros

>>263798905
Tron cyberspace

Anything like Act 4 (Hell) from Diablo 2, specifically River of Flame

Towns/Cities/Places intertwined with water (like based across a lake or the ocean or a river or whatever)

Sewers that are extremely long and complex, but are really tiny in walking space.

>>263801790

Pripyat's empty buildings were fantastic.

Did you play Metro 2033 and Last Light?

MGS3 style jungles but with more focus on wild life and hunting.

I can't tell if that is a real photo or not.

I don't know why but video games have a hard time giving you this sense of scale paintings give. It's almost always vast plains and mountains with a few herbs and trees or very closed, cave-like environments.

I don't remember playing a game where I looked up and saw something like this huge door or a statue and was amazed.

I like art deco.

At least I liked it until Bioshock ruined it for me.

I mean, Bioshock looks amazing, but holy shit, is it repetitive. Countless expanse of art deco corridors and some of the shittiest, bland console-influenced level design, ever. Even when they add some verticality into the mix, it doesn't really feel truly vertical. It's all just flat and uniform and glossy. The only place that tries to stand out is that bit with a big open courtyard shipyard sort of place, whatever it was.

I also like space stations.

I still think System Shock 2 was the best space station in video games. The environment wasn't overdone and felt realistic rather than just a setup for a video game. I think this is crucial for immersion -- the more you try to make the environments video gamey, the less fun they end up being. Compare the masterful level design of HL1 to the crap that was HL2.

>>263803039

You just named some of the bugs I hate and exactly the ones I don't mind

Had a centipede crawl on me once and I was done. Went in my basement and then Genocide


Overall I think i hate cockroaches. Not the tiny ones the fucking massive faggots that just sit there and give less fucks that you're going to squish them.

I CANT EVEN SQUISH THEM its disgusting as fuck because they're so big. I just cant do it.
I'll leave a spider alone as long as they're outside.

I had a bro near my porch light all summer he fucking demolished the mosquito for us and then my bug hating bitch made faggot of a friend seen it and got rid of it
Spiders wont harm you unless you fuck with them.

Futuristic cityscapes are another one of my favorites.

That's because most systems are not strong enough yet to create really awe inspiring scenes.

Unexplainable and bizarre constructions or formation that apparently defy both sense and laws of physics.

The sort of stuff that leave you flabbergasted because while it's obvious that they are not natural there is also no obvious way anyone or anything could have built them.

Cities or settlement built on ruins of a ancient civilization, oftentimes the ruins are so massive in size that it seemed that they were houses of giants.

Places that defy the rules of Euclidean space and topology (ie climbing down a stair and find yourself on the roof, one way "portals" rooms leading to or containing themselves and so on)

Cities built in strange ways either by technology or magic (for example on floating pieces of land or in the sea like a giant ship) with many air/ships going to and from it and a lot of commerce going on.

Forests and hills, maybe leading to a stronghold in the mountains.

Underground cities, both deep and semi-covered

Why live if not to enjoy it?

Large expanses of open wasteland with interesting things in it + good atmosphere + fun way to get around

Basically, places that make you travel but also make travelling not a chore.

Imagine crossing the Australian desert in a beat-up jeep 20 years after the bombs fall with fun companions and hilarious idle dialogue and also weird spooky shit at night and enemies to avoid during the day and supplies to scavenge and manage to keep your jeep going and yourselves alive.

Would b fun.

Gothic 3 has a decent dessert area. Its quite large and actually feels intimidating but still full of secrets to find.

This thread is making me wonder about something.

Would you all play a game wherein your main goal was simply exploration?

You'd start out in pretty mild areas with simple walking running and jumping but would later advance to areas where there is possible danger and you have acquired various ways of getting around through your exploration.

>>263805348
DaS itself isn't really all that big though. If you removed all combat and enemies you could probably jog to the end of the zone in like 3 minutes. For an exploration game there would have to be so much more content it would end up being massive. Unless you made everything a puzzle and gave the illusion of an xboxhueg environment, then it could work

>>263805598
Wilderness survival + exploration would be fine.

Learn about the environment by looking for resources, chill out while fake nature unfolds.

They died with the original Need for Speed games, unfortunately, although if you haven't played them ever or just in a few years it's worth going back.

Unless I make it, no one will ever make a comfy 3D fantasy game that doesn't revolve around fighting off monsters but really just day to day life, potion mixing, being a shop owner, exploring forests and gathering herbs.

Hm, a druid game would be cool.

There needs to be a game focused on multiplayer, small server based or something, in which you can build and maintain a town in all kinds of various terrains ranging through all of these.

Something chill and relaxing you can just play around in for fun. Also throw in some Harvest Moon elements.

And I know this will never exist.

NEVER EVER

Seriously, I hate JKR so much for hoarding the IP. But then again, we all know it would be someone like EA or Activision who'd buy the rights for HP video games and those would be just plain shit.

We all want a Hogwarts RPG, rather than yet another game that just follows after the events of the books.

environments with no enemies, with nothing to do.

on my first playthrough of doom 3 i got lost and somehow got into an area i wasn't supposed to be in yet. there was nothing there, and i ran around this area for a half hour or so. after awhile it really started to bother me because i was convinced i was going the right way since i hadn't been there before, and it was probably the only part of the game that genuinely scared me.

There was a city-builder thread the other day. I posted about how city-builders are almost never vertical, you just build a sprawl along the ground and hope a skyscraper grows. I'm shocked we've come this far in years and no one has made a vertically-integrated city sim yet. A cyberpunk city sim, however, ought to let you build in a 3D space. You can sprawl over the ground, but real development would be stacking structures and neighborhoods on top of each other. Too much traffic congestion downtown? Upgrade the skyscrapers to support a sky-highway and sky-rail. Want a landmark but can't demolish any of the real estate it would benefit? Put that fucking castle ON TOP of a skyscraper. Deregulate the roof of a commercial space, watch people put their houses on top of a mall.

If you already released a game you can not change its core very much anymore. You can add on, yes, but if the core is not really changeable.
And MMOs usually are not graphically or environmentally impressive at all.

The only games where you could such stuff are TES games, because they have a core which is capable of creating such things and modders could have enough time if they would be more organized.

No but you can add to a city. Maybe you have a super-massive zone, and you keep adding on to the main city. Pretty much what expansions are for, or rather as patches, which is what they should be

Did you even take a look at that city in the painting.
The city probably had thousands of inhabitants and was detailed as fuck.
To create something like this in 3d would take years for a studio.
Skyrim is good, but the cities are not comparable at all to this.

Yet, the city will still look very poor, because thats just how MMOs look like.
Back then Dungeon Crawlers also could be huge as fuck, but they still looked like shit, because the graphics were just shit.

And a studio would never add so much to an MMO to make it look similar like in this painting anyway.

Not the same guy, but in my opinion it isn't so much shit as it is incredibly shallow.

Every time had thought I was going to get caught up in an interesting quest ( like that female adventurer in the crimeridden town ) the quest just ended after I had done a simple chore like going into a monster infested place.

I really wanted to like it. Mostly because I'm gay for vikings and the environment.

>>263812236
The problem is that there'd be no point in making a map that big. There would be no one to populate it. People hate walking simulators, that's why there's fast travel in obvlion and skyrim.

No, what you are saying is that only MMOs could create such sceneries, which just total bullshit.
The type of game which could create something like this, would be a game, where the devs really have enough time for it, and MMOs are not special at all in this regard. Devs patch their games the whole time, no matter the genre.

I want rolling hills as far as the eye can see, with a partly cloudy blue sky. I want a crystal blue ocean, water so pure you could drink it and weep. I want awe inspiring things, things that inspire the wanderlust in me.

Also vertical level design needs to be more common. I have a diamond boner for games where things go up and down instead of left to right. Gravity is cool.

>>263810341
Yeah, that's fine in papers, but based on my experience, it can only be enjoyable for so much. Test Drive Unlimited 2 was proof of that (and driving was better there, by a fair margin)

>>263812508
This. Most people who play video games dont even want such impressive sceneries because it would make the game way too complicated for them.
Either too complicated or too simple. Because it either would be a really realistic slow paced simulation, or it would be just a stupid walking simulator with no content at all.

Sadly, most people dont realistic games, or games where you have to think too much and need patience. They rather like games which spoonfed you, are easy to understand and simple things running in the background.

I like a sandbox/exploration world big enough that, while I wouldn't want to traverse the entirety of it, I could go in one direction and stake for myself a place to familiarize with and call home. Another player would find some other neck of the woods to call his own. I start a new save and go a different place and have a different experience. That's what a massive world should be. Skyrim promises that but everywhere you go it's the same experience for everyone everywhere.

Excellent thread, folks.
If there's anything modern game design lacks, it is good environmental design and a sense of scale.

Personally, I love all sorts of well done environments: "nice" cyberpunk, grimy "Kowloon" type cyberpunk, FF-esque unreal massive structures, urban decay, massive high fantasy cities, funny looking mountains, comfy looking towns in woods, urban fantasy etc etc.

Pic related. Just a random pic from my environment folder.
I'll post a couple more.

Since good environments are harder to do than boring bland and everyday ones I hardly ever see anything I want in games.

Personally I want to be in a giant hulk of metal, I love exploring space ships and shit, but what I really want is a spaceship so large entire countries could exist within their interiors. Hell I love underground mazes and labyrinths too. I guess I just love the idea of being inside a colossal artificial locale where the natural world holds little sway.

the masses would just shit on this for being walking simulators and most of /v/ as well, the kind of games with these environments would sell less than 100k copies, no matter how badly you wish it could succeed. plus its graphics would have to suffer so that it'd be able to hold more and graphics fags would bitch. the sort of things people in this thread want are literally impossible.
