Gaming Indie devs and their obsession with pixel art graphics

[Weebhunter3000]

We have tools available for a single guy to make something like System Shock by himself. Yet the majority of indies insist on using pixel art. It’s not even good pixel art like Chrono Trigger, it’s 4-bit pastel colored vomit like UnderTroon. For the supposed golden age of indies I expected a little more diversity.

Because pixel art is easier to make and pleases the nostalgicfags

And the trannies. They love that shit.

They’re lazy and want to make easy money. Sometimes we get unique stuff like Hollow Knight, but usually it’s cheap horror RPGmaker games or a generic rougelike because people seem to love those.

It's because it's the easiest way to make slop

What's worse is the low poly shit like the tranny bloodborne psx. Absolute garbage. Ties in to how indie devs have a tendency to just copy a game from their childhood.

Forgot about that. PS1 graphics are not even good. I wonder if these devs are all projecting their fantasies onto their games as a form of therapy. The stories they write would make a lot of sense if true.

pleases nostalgia fags it causes a mental correlation between your game and other games thus you're more likely to try it and its lazier to produce it has no downsides and many benefits

many benefits

Benefits to line their greedy pockets!

trannies only know how to design in a specific list of artstyles with pixelart being the honorary one for vidya

That begs the question: why are so many indie devs trannies?

Even in the triple A industry, about a fourth of the devs are LGBT.
