how can a tiny ass team of no names make a decent and fun game yet a group of known industry vets with years of experience waste money and make garbage?

>>379210959
>It's impossible to justify graphics this bad looking with more than ten times the budget.

Japanese developers are hacks who don't understand how to use modern pipelines.

It's not malicious, they're just retarded from decades of radiation.

From the way kickstarter works, you can't really judge the game based on how much more it made that it's goal, should probably judge based on the original target.

That being said I think the initial concept art and the "which artstyle do you like" pics look much better than the current product and I feel rused. Going to need gameplay footage from the get-go before I pledge any dollars.

>>379211132
I do believe you since people will blindly defend anything, but I'm also almost sure you didn't only say it looks like shit.

You probably called the director a hack and all the fans braindead retards who suck his dick. That's how many people here behave outside when they forget they aren't anonymous. Then they cry "why are people being mean must because I have a different opinion :( ?"

>>379211478
There is no pressure to make a good product. The money is already given to them at the beginning.

>>379211439
Buttery smooth

>>379211510
Nah, I just said it looks bad and that I expected better based on the concept art and that I was disappointed. I got flooded with "IT LOOKS FINE TO ME, I LOVE IT" and "CONCEPT ART IS JUST CONCEPT ART, LMAO, WHY WOULD THE FINAL GAME TRY TO LOOK ANYTHING LIKE IT?"
I'm not a spaz, didn't go around calling them cucks and shit

Hollow Knight was kickstarted too, though. They also had no pressure to make a good product.

I DIDN'T WASTE MY FUCKING MONEY, YOU HEAR ME!?!?

>>379211439
That's it? That's what people are getting so upset about? It looks fine to me. At best, maybe it's a little lacking in polish, but nothing that can't be touched up come release. The basic design is fine.

Are people just butthurt because they can see geometric shapes and straight angles?

>>379210959
Yeah when or if my copy comes I might just put it into the bin. The graphics are ass

I didn't back it actually. Probably won't buy it either. Maybe that's why I don't care as much about it looking a little rough. Just seems like the castlevania-like that was promised, to me.

but I didn't back bloodstained

I didn't back Yooka-Laylee either. I pirated it, and I still think it's way better than /v/ gives it credit for.

Honestly if your going to back games using Kickstarter you should back Tabletop/Board games only. Majority of the time you get what was advertised.

>>379210959
I dont see anything wrong with this.
stop being such a whiny faggot.
The left game looks like some artsy newgrounds flash stuff appealing but basic.
The right one like like a vita game ported to ps4. going for some sort of realism but stylized to match the character visuals.
Its like you expect some super AAA tier dev team like bloodbourne on every single game.

Also both games use different methods of lighting. Different tastes for different people

¯\_(ツ)_/¯ I could shit on the left one because it overuses black a lot. and i can shit on the right one for using the engine lighting thats still not tweaked.

but i know for a fact you like that shitty artsy game everyone´s talking about.

>>379212747
There's nothing wrong with it looking like a newsground flash game. If anything ,it only makes it all the more hilarious that a newsground flash game still looks a million times better than the trash that got 10 times the funding

Keep lying to yourself, mate. You're just trying to justify the money you wasted.

>>379210959
I really don't understand why devs keep falling for the 2.5D meme. Unless you're hypercompetent (like say, Retro), you're better off with charming 2D sprites. It's too easy to make models look like garbage.

>>379212112
It's look way worse than SotN. The animations are stiff and lifeless and the whole faux 2D look is jarring. The concept art looks fine but in action everything looks cheap as fuck.

>>379212112
I agree it looks like the remake of Rondo of Blood, but smoother. I can see it looking good in time and some of the gray areas are probably pending animations.

>>379211825

Why does Inticreates keep getting involved with these things anyways?

>>379213297
I don't know anything about game development, but if I'd had to guess making a good looking sprite game is much more work compared to the 2,5D since you have to "paint" everything individually.

>>379213130
Yes and?

>>379210959
Why did Inafune and Iga both jump on the 3D meme? Is it that much more expensive to make some 2d assets?

basically it's just people prepaying for their copy of the game
the devs literally said "this is how we are going to make the game - do you want this" and people collectively said "yes, this is what we want" and prepurchased

how is the concept so hard for you to understand

>>379213489
But there's plenty of examples of indie (or semi-indie) games that use sprites and had a lower budget than Bloodstained has. And you'd think Iga could find some decent sprite artists considering he worked on like a dozen 2D games.

>>379211439
Almost looks like claymation to me. I wouldn't call it bad but I wouldn't say it looks good either.

>>379213789
I imagine some people expected it not to look like trash.
The lesson to learn is to always have gameplay videos before you back something.

Yooka laylee is good

>>379213558
>pledging money on kickstarter
lol fag you deserve this pain you have brought upon yourself

>>379213572
I haven't given money to any kickstarter but these three are the ones I was most interested in.
Got a limited edition Star Citizen ship with my GPU though. Glad I didn't pay 45$ for it.

>>379211439
actually doesn't look that bad, i'll have to see how it plays when it comes out before i can go for it though
(i didn't hate how mighty number 9 looked either, all of my problems with that game come from the fucking terrible gameplay design decisions)

if anything it seems like the people who hate it the most are the people who backed it and are angry that it isn't exactly what they want
either that or your typical "lets talk shit about x like it's the new tortanic" /v/ user (which i don't mind by the way, you don't have to like something but it seems bizarre to assume that anyone who thinks the game looks okay has to have paid or contributed towards it in some way. it seems to be mostly people like me who have no stake in the game at all and simply won't buy it if it's shit)

>>379214749
Its most likely the latter.
Remember /v/ is filled with le epic super memer redditors, normies and kids nowadays.

Eh, it's alright. I don't understand why would you hire a company with fairly good pixel artists to make a 2.5D game though.
