I was going to say Kalm was the comfiest city but now that I look at the picture it looks sort of creepy. It's the music that is comfy.

It's so great to hear after all the intense stuff that happened in Midgar.

I wouldn't call Kalm creepy at all. It's FFVII's take on the towns of past Final Fantasy games.

In fact it's comfy as fuck.

I'm usually okay with emulation increasing the resolution on polygons, but in FF7 it just looks weird when the backgrounds are still 240.

Not him, but if you've been here more than 5 minutes you'll have seen how seemingly random the attention from janitors and mods is.
>>
>>3755474
My original post was just a negative criticism, which is perfectly acceptable. The janitor is just a faggot.
>>
>>3755490
Criticism is acceptable, your post however was basically "HE'S A FAGGOT ABLOOBLOOBLOO" which is nothing more than shitposting and trying to start a fight.
>>
>>3755515
So? I made exactly two posts about it, the first post to say that orito is a shitty artist, and a second to explain why. It shouldn't have been removed.
>>
>>3755529
How is complaining that someone's art is shitty valid or interesting conversation though?
>>
>>3755529
Your post was "One, he's a neofaggot. Two, his art is blurry dark mess of shit."

That's not discussion, that's you just trying to start fights.
>>
>>3755529
I bet you're a way better artist, right?

Well, it seems like Square doesn't have the original environment assets any more, so the only way that you'll see those backgrounds in a higher resolution is if they build everything again from scratch (unlikely).

It really is a shame, some look really, really nice.
>>
>>3755558
That's a claim, his art may not appeal to all but it's not completely amateurish. Care to post something? Its rare I see other artists posting here other than the vrtan guy.

It's cool to talk like a teenager though! It makes everyone know you don't play by their faggy grown up "rules" and shit, yo!
>>
>>3755550
Well, my argument is not that the backgrounds should be higher res, but the polygons should be lower.

Although I bet the pre-rendered backgrounds would be gorgeous in higher res... or would they? I feel like the blur from being in 240 with anti-aliasing is maybe what gives it some charm. If it were sharpened too much, it might create sort of an environmental version of the uncanny valley, where we become acutely aware that we're looking at a 3D render and our minds no longer extrapolate the realism from it and it loses its coziness.

I hate when people use this argument. Like I have to be a movie director to dislike a movie.

There is a point to that, but complaining that someone else is shit at something that you also aren't good at just makes you look like a dipshit. Also that guy claimed to be an even more skilled artist anyways.

If something has glaring errors or flaws that really, honestly, stand out as bad, then you don't have to be able to do better yourself.

If there's a quite photorealistic picture of Narshe, clearly drawn by a skilled artist, and you say it's SHIT, then... no. You need to use a lighter criticism, or your just being a spaz. You don't even have to look at that picture.

It's like if someone plays a basically-faithful rendition of a piece on the piano. If you can't do better, but think they're hammering the keys, then you can say it constructively. Otherwise, who are you to have better standards?
>>
>>3756152
It's actually a caricature of Japan after the Meiji restoration, which occurred after the end of the feudal period.
>>
>>3756239
Sorry, during, for some reason didn't realize that the Meiji period actually extended into the 1900s

it was the era of woodblock porn, good times for sure

No it does not. That makes no sense. Would you say that you are not qualified to judge anything that you couldn't do better? I can't dislike a game unless I'm a master game designer? I can't dislike a song if I couldn't be a one man band and record a better one?
Fuck off with that shit logic m8.

>>3756452
More like if you can't actually say anything specific about why it's bad, or what it is about it that you don't like, you might as well just shut up because who actually cares about how you think or feel as a person?

>>3756452
Saying you don't personally like something, or it's not to your tastes is one thing. But saying someone is shit at something that you yourself are even worse at mostly just makes you look like an idiot because you don't really know what you're talking about. Just spewing your opinion but trying to make it sound like it's an objective truth.

But also remember, the guy claimed to be a much better artist in his own right but then never followed up and deleted all his posts. So 99% chance he was just trolling the whole time anyways.
