Despot's Game

More proof that pixel art is a blight upon gaming. They clearly COULD make good looking characters, they just refuse to.

There is certainly plenty of cringe in that game, but I actually quite liked that one. Nothing wrong with a nod to DS

I thought the cringe is the look of the party. I must be getting old

Gud gaem. My only major complaint was that I got constant frame drops during certain scenes, especially during boss battles.

Is that chromatic aberration?

 

[Riskbreaker]

No idea. That's from the recent re-release of GBA Castlevanias. There is only one CRT filter available, it didn't look right so I've turned it off.

GBA games really don't hold up at that sort of resolution imo...

I'll have to give this another try. I remember the combat feeling floaty, like I was controlling a string puppet.

It is floaty, but the game is really fun. You'll get used to it, and it is possible to take advantage of the controls for your own gain. When I played it, there were some crazy moments, where I would make enemies fly all over the place. I think the controls are meant to be physics based like that.

You get used to it.

Castlevania: Dracula X

Spoiler

(Take a good look at my healthbar there. Still, really eye-popping screen.)

After so many igavanias, it was interesting experiencing some of these classic enemies as threatening again. And for some of them their behaviours were more complex even outside the boss variants viz. the axe armour's berserking at ya or you being able to take down his shield.
Also, those goddamn spearfags can kindly stick their fucking spears in their respective posteriors, thank you very much.

Castlevania: Dracula X

Is that some Reshade CRT filter? The game would've looked better without it.

 

[schru]

It looks like it might be applied on top of bilinear filtering or just to a low resolution which is then rescaled to fill the screen, which is why it looks so bad. Those filters should be used with internal resolutions or resolution scaling that matches the monitor's resolution.

 

[Riskbreaker]

It's literally the filter supplied with the Steam release. The only one available. I'd wager that at least some thought went into it - again, it's either that or raw, and it's not as if the raw is accurate to what you would have seen on your TV, is it now?
Anyhow, it looks perfectly fine to me in motion.

 

[Hag]

I'll do.




Quite.
