Not a big fan
Looks pretty awesome to meeeee
Personally I love the aesthetic.
I Love it! Old school or no school.
It was only a matter of time. The limitations of the past become the aesthetic choices of the future.
New and ps1 in the same sentence make me feel younger, thanks
Well maybe some folks don’t like the simple graphics as in most games.
Why purposely make something look like shit? I don’t get it but to each their own
Love it !!!
We also see these graphics of old ,combined with modern game design leading to some fantastic results.
One of my fave games I played last year :

i dont. If i wanted to play some classics then i will but if im gaming im spending my time with better visuals and a better game
I like games taking a simpler graphics style and spending time on the gameplay, rather tha the AAA trend of pouring the entire budget into “next gen graphics” and forgetting the rest.
(My completely subjective opinion)
But I can’t come to terms with intentionally going for old ugly graphics. I feel the same with pixelart. Why spend so much time making it low res, just for “the style”.
Again, I would rather they spend the time on gameplay and use a simple, modern, decent looking style.
Always hated it, even when it was new… Always preferred older type graphics like FF 4-6, Super Mario etc, or on PC side Heroes of Might and magic, Worms or Master of Orion… and I like modern 3d graphics from near end of PS2 era forwards… that middle area is just rough, hard on the eyes and often confusing to look at.
I can’t wait for this regressive fad to end.
Haven seen or played any. Is this supposed to be an advertisement?
Back in my day we just called that bad graphics..
If I wanted to play a ps1 styled game I’d just play a ps1 game
Is that a fake Steam logo bottom right? Lol.
PS1 graphics didn’t age as well as pixel sprites in my opinion. Sprites still required artistry and style whereas 3D graphics at the time were just utilizing what was available. A handful of PS1 era titles stood out thanks to art direction but I wouldn’t say the big, blocky polygons and pre-rendered faces were an art form.
Lower threshold is fine for creative games to reach players, but many low effort productions lack real gameplay, so it’s not very inspiring.
Meh, it was great in 1998. Nowadays i don’t really like it
Mixed thoughts.
More detail doesn’t inherently mean something looks *better*. I mean, just see any live action cover of any anime show ever. Or even just plenty of inferior 3D animation to 2D animation. I think much like pixel art N64 / PS1 stylized games are a valid art style in their own when done right.
I’d also say not every low detail game is a *retro styled* game, there are definitely some games that are more authentic than others, and there’s a lot of lazy and ugly uncanny valley projects that purport to be retro but just use that an excuse to have low poly models and textures while using modern techniques for everything else.
PS1 graphics was way simpler than that though
I’m getting Fade to Black vibes from this.
Heh, it’s funny how OP probably imagined they’d get a lot of people to be with them in liking old graphics, only for most to not be into them and ending up arguing with them all about why their opinion is wrong.
OP: so what do you think of this?
Reddit: i dont like it
OP: i see. Let me annoy you and claim your opinion is false. I like it, and so must you.
It’s garbage. I like indie games that are pixelated, or tooned like cuphead, or very simple like Hue, Limbo etc, but ps1 graphics take me back to max payne’s “kinda got take the biggest shit while being shot at” face and i did not like that.
OP, please, don’t reply
I love it
Would never ever play one
8 people playing sports games at once! Bring it on
It can work for specific uses, like making a horror game feel a bit more disturbing for instance. But it can easily just appear lazy, as well. It’s not something I’d want to see often but if somebody can utilize it in a clever way then it can work well.
Not loving it. PS1 graphics were left behind for good reason. They looked bad then and they look bad now. There was no artistry to them at all.
8 and 16bit 2D pixel games are far different because pixel art required an artistic hand to make them look good, and is why they basically never age.
No, PS1 graphics didn’t age well in my opinion. My opinion is not very high of this style.
Alao,what games are using this “style?” If it’s a “trend” then I expect a list of newer games using these old graphics.
God OP is fucking insufferable
It’s evolving, just backwards
I didn’t know it was a trend? I think it’s only a “trend” (if it is one) because the developer has cut corners so much this is what they can afford.
Edit: judging by your replies you might have a financial reason why you think this should be a trend. Yikes
Edit 2: so yeah this is OPs game, the defensive replies make sense now. Sorry man, I think your 15+ years too late for this to be financially viable no matter how much you want it to be.
I like how OP asked peoples opinion and then argues with anyone that gives their opinion
