Why the fuck would any developer still make sprites in this day and age?

>take way too much work to make
>cost too much money to make
>look dated by virtue of being sprites
>more work to make good animations with less payoff(you can do the same and way better animation using 3d models)
>game will look pixelated no matter what you do
>if you really want you can use 3d models and fake making them look like sprites(ie. ori and the blind forest, salt and sanctuary, guilty gear revelator)
>3d models in a 2d game allow for way more detail and can make the game look more realistic, can use realistic hd 3d textures for the best detail for background stuff, sprites are limited to cartoony shit so it can't look realistic
>making a 2d style game is retarded anyway since it will be overshadowed by all the numerous 3d games being made

>>
>>384647541
Yes actually. Getting hd textures online is stupidly easy and many you can get for free, KI wouldn't be surprised if over half the textures in the game didn't come from a free texture repository. The animations would be easier, if you fuck up animations on 3d models you can just do it over. If you fuck up animations on sprites you have to REDRAW EVERY SINGLE SPRITE. They're way harder to animate right too.

Also sprites affect gameplay too. let's say someone wants to do a 2d action game with combat like a ninja gaiden or dmc game or something, like very fast paced, combo heavy, loots of different moves. In sprites it can't be done, most devs can barely finish a basic metroidvania style game with rudimentary combat, more complex shit would be damn near impossible and take way too long, waste too much time and money, and just not look right. Meanwhile 3d to do that type of game would be as easy as say team ninja making ninja gaiden 4 using the engine they use for 3d, and just setting the camera to be sidescrolling. Easy as hell.

>>
>>384647891
More detail does not always make a game better visually. Often it adds clutter, making it a strain on the eye to determine where a character is.

Sprites are often a better choice for 2D platforming simply because there is better control of the visuals.

Style, well.... that's a personal choice. Personally, Deadlight and Blasphemous don't look like something I would enjoy to play.
>>
>>384648090
I have no bias against 3D models, I like both. But that screenshot was awful. Everything iss either blurry from the chromatic aberration or jagged from the lack of AA, the background is a bunch of muddy low-res textures and the foreground only has a few high-res textures like the mattress and walls. The barrels right next to the mattress look so out of place because the texturing is so bad.

honestly it looks about as good as the walking dead games except all the characters are blacked out so you cant really see much of them anyways

Why would either game be objectively better-looking than the other? Some people hate 3D, believe it or not.

And yes, Ori looks great, but you can't use that to act like 3D games always look better than sprite-based games. There are plenty of examples of modern, ugly UGLY 3D.

You're missing the point. The sprites look good.
>>
>>384648452
Those didn't use real sprites, they used this weird shit where they make the arms and legs and such and assemble them together somehow using a computer generation technique. The animations weren't manually made. Also action combat with combos like that doesn't look as good as the action combos found in 3d games, like this for instance, it straight up looks better:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QLJ5vXH5yb4

sprites means less attacks, less variety in animations and combo techniques, and more limited, also 2d means no crazy camera angles and the action looks less interesting because of it. Why do you think no one makes 2d beat em ups anymore, and instead hack n slash took over?

They're going bankrupt with 3D. Remember Crytek? Those guys who made the incredible-looking Crysis series? They were in such bad shape that they were "promoting" their own employees - with the caveat that after a promotion, you can't quit for at least a few months. Essentially getting free work out of them, since they had no money to pay the poor souls. I'm not trying to be mean, but I think if you look at your underlying assumptions in general, you'll realize why your argument is bad.

Not the same, their issue wasn't a game doing poorly in 3d, it was the inferior game engine. Crytek engine was vastly inferior to the Unreal engine, and it got phased out, just like the quake engine did. No one uses that to make games anymore either.

I'll say this from a standpoint of someone who works in both unreal and unity at my workplace, making sprites is actually cheaper in the short term than doing a full fledged model, baking, texturing, rigging, shading and animating a character.

Bullshit, sprites cost way more to make, take more time to make, and you need specialist artists who can even do those, which are rare these days. 3d modeling is way easier. Also Skullgirls is a terrible example, they needed fucking Disney artists to make those sprites and each character coted over a million dollars. To get sprites and animation that rivals the lion king. Meanwhile Capcom shit out ugly 3d models for sfv and that game made more than skullgirls and is more well known.

No the fuck you don't. Maybe 20 years ago, but nowadays you can literally just tweak some settings in Photoshop and draw it with a tablet. Very few, if any, of the sprite-based games in the last 15 years were made like they were in the old days by placing individual pixels manually over an animation sheet.

>>
>>384652615
To make a sprite you need at most 2 artist, an animator to laydown the keys and timing and a concept artist or character artist. For a full 3D model you would need a a character modeler , a texturing and shading artist, a rigger and an animator. That's twice the number of people. Plus sprites have the advantages of being more maleable and easy smears and deformation. You'd need a pro rigger to get the same similar effect on your 3D models, not even considering the skinning problems that would occur and the texture defformation. Hell the cost and workload of creating blendshapes for the models alone would be reasons enough to go for sprites. Instead of throwing atupid numbers and false things how about you first learn what you're talking about dipshit.

Just you try showing me a 3d animated game with animations that match the quality of a good 2d animation.
Earlier today we had a thread about how 2d fighters were undoubtly better than 3d because animations are bound to be better. You can't easily squash and stretch models in 3d to make them look good as 2d, you're always stuck with the model itself and what it can do based on its skeleton while impacts on well made 2d are SO much stronger.

These 2 games feature such impactful animation.
https://twitter.com/ThunderhorseCO
and
https://twitter.com/virgovszodiac
The only comparable 3d is arguably Smash Bros and that's mostly because of impact effects.

in a world of SEE IT ALL NEED 420 FRAMES A SECOND we live in, it's an afterthought. could it be done with stretching? maybe. but at that point you gotta fuck with an engine to do that and snap it back smoothly OR give every frame a model change manually and i thought saving time/work was the appeal.

Blasphemous is supposed to be about some dark catholic knight dude slaughtering evil Christian demons with weird torture shit everywhere, how the fuck should it look, like goddamn megaman 8 and sonic?

What if the only console he has is a Switch you fucktard?
>>
>>384654658
next you'll tell me this looks better than deadlight

3d models should only be used in games where you can move in a 3d area, and even then, there are sprite based fps'
>>
>>384652615
Son, your ass sure has more options than providing a reliable source, huh?
>>
Sprites are timeless. They'll always look good if they're well made. 3D models will look dated very quickly, even with hyper stylization like cell shading.
>>
>>384646827
>Sprites look dated because they're sprites

Only if you're a superficial retard who considers old automatically bad and therefore dated. Also
>Realistic 3d
Art style is more important then how realistic something looks.

Post the .GIF
>>
>>384646827
it's way easier and cheaper to make low res sprites than decent 3D models
and most indie devs dont understand complicated 3D modeling programs, so sprites are all they can manage
>>
>>384646827
>>game will look pixelated no matter what you do

That's often the whole point.

>>384655098
no fair, that cgi anime was low budget and made by a hack, also anime isn't remotely the same as sprites and you know it, by your logic I can ask why didn't snes and genesis games look like anime then.
>>
>>384647447
This actually just looks like shit. Why would you take bad 3D over good 2D? At least give us a good looking 3D game to compare to instead of this garbage.

why is that dog has balls there?is this a sex game?can you sauce me up senpai?

Pixels are fucking ugly. Why do you think pc gamers build their crazy rigs, so they never have to see some ugly ass pixel ever again.

Ok watch it in motion then:

>That's way too much effort for shit indie devs

There is a matter of resources. Everything costs resources, they are often limited and committing resources to one thing means sacrificing another.
>>
>>384655480
What the fuck, why would you do that, to link it to some video commentary, pseudo e-celeb shitter who talks well even before game footage is shown. Have you no shame?
>>
>>384646827
Seems like it is lacking some kind of collectable items or something. Seems empty and one battle fights. Has hope off riding coat tails of horror games....look at altered beast and see how that turned out.... games like castlevania and gouls and ghosts work from difficulty and the taunting of players to get that candle for maybe a power up while they fight 2 guys and a projectile or medusa head is coming. This blasphemus game seems to only have the gore horror theme....
>>
>>384646995
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH
HAHAHAHAHAHAHA
>>
>>384655098
The eclipse looked legitimately good and was pretty much all 3D. Don't blame an entire medium just because something is shitty.
>>
>>384655887
altered beast had powerups though
>>
>>384655887
I played the prototype, they're not shooting for castlevania or ghouls n' ghosts as far as the combat is concerned.
>>
>>384646827
To summarize OP
>ueee ueee shitty dev for using 2D, this game will be utter shit solely because they're using 2D, if they use 3D they'd save money and make game prettier by default, I also have no concept of graphic artstyle, artist's integrity, process of creating a 2D game and finances, yet here I have a video of Deadlight, which proves absolutely nothing except that some developers can make 2D side scroller in 3D environment. WIth that information I have 100% guarantee that any other developer when producing any kind of game, would and will get prettier graphic when also saving money, and any developer still trying to do 2D will inevitably go bankrupt, since planning, resource managing, deadlines and human talent is still something impossible to manage in the company that specializes in these kind of things. Also, I'm 12 years old and I'm angry that this game doesn't look like Uncharted 4.
>>
>>384656005
I only played it at a friends house as a kid when i was hyped for it. Didnt own any sega consiles. I was let fown. Wasnt fun at the time i can only imagine how shitty it would be now. I did finish brahm stikers dracula on sega cd at the same friends though.

Altered beast just felt like i was lied to about how cool it would be in gamepro.
>>
At least with sprites, clipping is never an issue.

Besides, making sprites is a thousand times easier than 3d models in my opinion,
>>
>>384656276
if it looked like uncharted 4 the horror theme would be a lot scarier, sprites can't be scary or creepy
>>
>>384655393
>That's what millenials actually believe
>>
>>384656427
That's just false.
>>
>>384656408
>Besides, making sprites is a thousand times easier than 3d models in my opinion,

Your opinion is wrong. Just ask SNK if sprites are easy to make.
>>
>>384656146
That is good. Not all games should be copies of shit. I guess i was trying to say that there doesnt seem like an urgency or some temptation to take risk in that video. Seemed like a ninja gaiden run sim with horror theme then strawmen fight and a few pitfalls.

Good game design rewards risk taking at the cost of devastating consequences.
>>
>>384656427
Additionally it would be even harder to produce, since Uncharted is the prettiest game on PS4, but sure, let's believe that indie dev that produces game for Nintendo Switch, is ready to make a game that looks like U4, and is also cheaper to produce than some 2D sprites.
>>
>>384646827
Because sprite art is a work of love and when it's done right it's great. Sorry you cant enjoy anything aside what you're told to enjoy by marketing companies.
>>
>>384656565
We'll have to wait and see, to be fair with the devs it's just the kickstarter prototype, real development hasn't even started yet.
>>
I thought graphix didn't matter?
>>
>>384656490
Well, easy for me anyway.
>>
>>384656674
Eh the order and horizon say hello.....imo they look better. Ratchet and clank... there are tons of great looking games.
>>
>>384656674
They can get hd textures for free of multiple sites, it isn't that damn hard. They could at least aim to make it look as amazing as deadlight.
>>
>>384649151
>indie pixel garbage le dark souls for PC
I mean, a diamond dozen, but if I can get it on switch, suddenly it holds value.

Suck my dick, choke on it.
>>
>>384656779
True i hope it is good i like the theme and art. Guess i was just making suggestions.
>>
>>384656815
Last time I checked, indie dev producing 3D environment ended with Yooka Laylee and afromentioned Mighty No. 9. Again, kickstarting indie dev developing a game for nintendo Switch should be able to create a game that looks like one produced for PS4 by veterans of the industry.
>>
>>384656909
What does a diamond dozen mean?
>>
I would prefer if all games were made in 2d honestly.
I prefer it to 3d
>>
>>384656865
That's nice, textures will solve everything. With that knowledge I can build my own Crysis game in no time.
>>
>>384657104
I was teplying to the comment who said uc4 was the best looking game for ps4.....sorry for the confusion i should have handheld you buy not just quoting the post but the text also.
>>
>>384657218
It could mean anything in this doggy dog world.
>>
>>384654290
All those games have way too fast gameplay to feature actual impactful animations.
As a reference, King Dedede in Smash Bros is the most impactul character because of how fucking slow he is, giving him a lot of time to prepare attacks and shit so they feel much more rewarding than the fast hits you often see in character action/fighters.
>>
>>384655695
That's stupid when you think this pc-98 games where mostly made by small 5 or 6 person teams.
>>
>>384656909
