Noses are for the weak.
So do you have it, sis ?
Noses are for the weak.
Depends on the series. Death Note had fairly normal sized eyes, even on females.Felix said:I still hate the big alien eyes,
Not quite non existent, but merely abstracted.nonexistent noses
Again depends on the series, to go to death note again, you have very few people with weird hair colors.and stupid hair colors,
As you well should, Disney had a hand in the fathering of manga.I blame Disney.

Yeah, it's your opinion, but what sort of discussion do you think could come from "X is terrible shit, period"?
Alexandros said:1. Bad art direction. This is highly subjective and there's no way (that I'm aware of) to prove that a game has bad art direction.
2. Simplistic combat. I provided some reasons for that.
3. Bad writing. Even people who like japanese games admitted this to be true for the most part.
Alexandros said:4. Silliness. I think this is pretty much self-evident and it is also apparent if you read some of the other threads of japanese games. Black Cat said something along the lines of "it's retarded but it's cool". What else is there to prove? Some people may enjoy this kind of thing. I don't.
5.Tasteless sex. Really, does this point need to be proven?

I can almost hear the art director spouting "We want to make the player feel in an alien world" and all the two-digit IQ 'artists' going for a pseudo Star Wars and WH40K look.

How unexpected that you'd prefer the "original" wannabe-settings in JRPGs.
No one is arguing that some Western art styles are as bland as fuck (though the last pic is a rather poor troll). But do you really prefer the gigantic eyes, disproportionate bodies and fixation with adolescents? Generic/boring graphics are relatively innocuous but anime shit actively detracts from a game.roll-a-die said:Let me show you something

I really don't understand why you keep saying this. My complaints were:
1. Bad art direction. This is highly subjective and there's no way (that I'm aware of) to prove that a game has bad art direction.
2. Simplistic combat. I provided some reasons for that.
3. Bad writing. Even people who like japanese games admitted this to be true for the most part.

5.Tasteless sex. Really, does this point need to be proven?
So please tell me, what kind of arguments would you like me to present?

How; Other than in a xenophobic "it's different so I don't like it," way: How, does the art detract from the games?Tycn said:No one is arguing that some Western art styles are as bland as fuck (though the last pic is a rather poor troll).
