I probably need to go through a bunch of threads to sort out what was sunk and what wasn’t. Outside of that, do not make duplicate threads just because a member you don’t like made the OP.
One and only warning you guys are getting on this issue. Outside of that, carry on.
someone with that ugly trash Seinfeld guy for an avatar has no right saying something else ‘looks like trash’.
uninspired? so ugly western inspired art and typical rough looking european faces is the only art you accept? that’s racisms towards anything anime.
I’m sure you’re the type that think South Park art looks better, subsconsciously influenced by patriotic insanity (the very thing that generates weeb labeling and xenophobic reactions and rejections towards anything anime or asian developed.)
then there’s the deranged toilet hat wearing psychos out there that get butthurt everytime a game makes it possible to even make “good” looking characters,
which anime has higher potential of providing, unlike cruddy western artstyles
the unjustified criticisms of Code Vein’s art, just goes to show the misguided expectations of some thinking every soulsborne inspired game should follow soulsborne art direction and western art glorification style.
and there is anime that has enviornments that look more “realistic” than the character designs themselves. but they still blend well even with the face detail of said characters is not at the level or style of the enviornments themselves. out of all the comments and criticisms Code Vein has around different sites elsewhere, not one commented about the anime faces looking out of place with the rest of the art. They are focused on whether the a.i. will be better than the early build presented.
any criticisms towards the faces were only from racists that don’t respect anime in general, and only give Japanese games a pass if they look like a western developer made it. That’s how xenophobic some loud westerners are, anime art is always picked on and criticized in the west only by the xenophobic masses. “uninspired”. hogwash, if anything is uninspired it would be art that follows the western mudhole of art direction.
I commend you for what you are attempting to do kohai. However in light of some startling new revelations I have made I do deem it necessary to warn you of the profound impact associating yourself with the individual known as “affinity” can have on your health.
As you can see in this photo, there are two slices of bread.
The “Dirty” slice had a thread created by affinity in order to promote it’s unrivaled and genre redefining texture and taste. The “Clean” slice is of course a normal slice of bread that was properly washed in room temperature spring water at the correct pH levels. After only a few hours the dirty slice began to show signs of being exposed to high levels of fuckstupiditry and shillism that have thoroughly riddled the slice with an assortment of contaminants, rendering it all but inedible.
The Clean slice even after a few more WEEKS is still in pristine condition thanks to it’s lovingly applied cleansing at the hands of a professional bread washer. I think anyone with even a modicum of intelligence can see where I am going with this.
The dislike ratio on that video plus the comments are interesting.
Seems like some people don’t like that it’s a blatant Souls Like and wish they would do something more original. Others feel that the character designs are out of place, they feel they can’t understand who the game is supposed to be for. Which frankly, I don’t understand. There’s plenty of edgy anime with character designs like this, but oh well
there is never enough anime, and there’s no edgy anime with a formula like this.
overall the soulsborne fanbase should not be ungrateful. soulsborne is a young genre, and Code Vein is extremely refreshing from all the Street Fighter, Tomb Raider, and Dragon Quest clones out there.
would Code Vein be more accepted as a Monster Hunter? depends, but overall this is Soulsborne done right, unlike that worthless Nioh game, Code Vein is made for more kinds of people and better creativity and taste in design. plus vampiric role with character creation is very rare.
