What happened to "mature" art direction? Everything is Overwatch now

[Lord_Potato]

Exibit 3, since CDPR is basically a western dev now:

 

[Reinhardt]

No he didn't
He loved tales of chivalry
Dom Quixote is a parody, not a satire

This guy is usually wrong on just about everything, but he's right here.

Don Quijote is one of the most brilliant, funny, clever books ever written, especially because the author loved its source material so much. It's a beautiful thing, and anyone who doesn't understand that Quijote is in every way a powerful tragic figure rather than simply a ridiculous loser has watched too much Monty Python and suffers from brain rot.

everyone who meets him literally despairs that such smart and good man loses himself only when it comes to chivalric romances.

 

[Reinhardt]

And why do they wear earings, oh god?

they sure ain't pirates

 

[Axie]

Furthermore I believe there was an old term for this in art circles ("barbarogenius") which is sometimes used to describe a simple man who was born with incredible talent (for singing, painting, etc.)

That is not what barbarogenius (Барбарогеније децивилизатор/Barbarogenie le Décivilisateur) mеans. Look up: Zenitism/Zenitizam.

EDIT: The struggle with decline was there, even century ago.

 

[luj1]

didn't you claim to have a Japanese wife?

He had to have because they threw tomatoes at him in Serbia.

Also they're the only society to accept nanodicks as their own.

 

[Semiurge]

With Giger and Moebius throwing the corpses on a pyre.

With Howard Pyle and Hal Foster watching from afar

Zdzisław Beksiński and Roger Dean join in and then they all dance in the smoke.

 

[Lord_Potato]

I'd play a game based on Beksiński's art.

And there's even an RPG in the works!

On the other hand it looks like a Soulslike

Cheap shock value isn't art and never will be art. It is so prevalent in conceptual art circles because it doesn't require talent. You can now duct-tape a banana to a wall or smear shit across it and call it art. Thanks to idiots such as Marina Abramovic. Art = talent or skill.

 

[Silverfish]

Also they're the only society to accept nanodicks as their own.

"There's nothing weird or gay about Frank Frazetta. Anyway, here're my thoughts on your penis."

 

[luj1]

I doubt that. Plenty of his contemporaries drew similarly obscene stuff for fun. People were a lot more chill 100 years ago.

 

[Melcar]

Personally I am more of a Luis Royo fan. Him and Frazetta have lots of "lewd" stuff out there and lots of it are not just "sketches" and doodles for fun.

 

[Tehdagah]

Disturbing art is the best one.

 

[Axie]

Disturbing art is the best one.

It has its place but calling it the “best one” is just having a plain bad taste. And a sign (usually) of mental issues.

 

[Blutwurstritter]

King Arthur: Knight's Tale.

I tried this and found it overly simplistic and easy with small party size and lacking customization.

I'm also not a fan of the grimdark style. Everyone says knights and chivalry are cliché but I can't think of a single property since Excalibur that actually plays it straight. Everything is a subvsersion, everything is an 'alternate take.' No one really wants to do medieval romance like 'The Song of Roland', even 500 years ago Cervantes thought knights were a joke.

I want an unstoppable hero killing 1000 Saracens before falling on his sword. I want Orlando going insane and Astolfo flying a hippogriff to recover his wits from the moon. Basically I want something like The Last Samurai for the west, that romanticizes the shit out of knights and chivalry. But no one even tries because they think it would be hokey and dumb. Maybe it's all Monty Python's fault, and this is an over correction.

I think I have just found the thing for you, although its a book and not a game,

Answer to this thread question is too much writing but short version is> rich Jews in America monopolizing and usurping all the arts for so long and spewing and pushing incompetence from nepotism in their (and not just their) ranks that became a norm in all forms of expression.
And because (unfortunately) kwa still dictates mainstream pop culture, it lowers global IQ and quality everywhere.

nice example>

untalented Jew work considered great art (lel)

A 10yo could draw this shit.

So it's, worthless Jewish "artistic" "culture" that won in America that is to blame. Its similar in other parts of the world, if not Jews its some other group of mediocre talentless people, but with power to monopolize what and who is pushed.

 

[Nutmeg]

Why do you keep saying 100 years ago? He did as much of his art in the 80s and 90s as he did in the late 60s when he started his career and 70s. He died in 2010.

 

[luj1]

I know. Like I said, I very much doubt there is anything gay or cucked about Frank Frazetta. Dude was a chad.

 

[Shaki]

Fortunately AI can't have a cuck fetish, and I doubt we'll have any human artists left few decades from now, so the future looks bright

 

[luj1]

Example from cartoons. The same decline infested all other media as well. From traditional, realistic, renaissance, manly style of art, to the cucked, talentless hogwash for little boys infused with estrogen.

I don't think it's necessarily incompetence but a reflection of their culture, and on an individual artists level, their souls.

"Hey this thread is interesting, people are talking about oversimplified art and-"

>Jewish conspiracy mentioned

Okay I'm going to back away slowly....

 

[TedNugent]

Everything? I think not!

What game is this?

Second look, lion head pauldron annoys me but other than that it nearly does it for me.

Fully agreed, here are some more examples of good old mature art direction:

You know, despite how inexplicably visually annoying this image is, the horse is actually rendered realistically, and I appreciate the fact that he is holding the reins and the handle inside of his center gripped boss held shield. He also seems to be wearing practical clothing.

Shockingly enough, not all comics art is identical in style or quality.
