Why don't games have atmosphere anymore? https://www.yo

Twin peaks ended.

Because it takes real effort instead of OMG GRAPHICS AND LOOTCRATES

SH also existed in an era when SH1 seemed amazing.

I like SH1,
but i hardly call that scene a proper "atmosphere"

it was always rare though, because most game devs have bad taste and little artistic talent

>>375883284
Because fog isn't necessary to limit viewing distance anymore.

atmosphere is mostly good sound design coupled with a detailed gameworld.

But mostly sound. Thief is a good example of shit graphics but bloody perfect sound effects that create excellent 'atmosphere'

Great atmosphere in vidya has always been a product of the minority

witcher 3 does from what ive played.

I think music is probs THE main source of atmosphere.

SH1 is still a solid game nowadays anon.

I would say Resident Evil 7 had some good atmosphere, but I'm likely to run into RE7 shitposters and idiots who think not a single good game was made after 1999.

>"le 'X' game has good atmosphere"
>posts a picture of fog in a game

it's just a PT knockoff

The atmosphere of RE7 is good because every area is unique and very few if any assets are reused, but it falls apart sometimes, especially after you start realizing how scripted everything is.

>>375883284
I had that atmosphere feeling from RE7.

>>375883284

Souls games have them. They feel like throw backs to 8-64 bit games, but done better.

Fog isn't something they push devs to use anymore, since distance rendering has gone way up with vgus

>>375888304
yeah well at least it fucking exists ya cunt

Yamaoka surely watched Twin Peaks. The bass has the same exact rhythm.
