Tbf we are already reaching diminishing returns with exponentially increasing the complexity of the game graphics (Polygon count) for some years now. For example, NFS Most Wanted 2012 still looks gorgeous to me to this day.

Style > Graphical fidelity If a game has good style and design, it's amazing how well it can hold up.

Absolutely agreed. What are your favorite stylized games?

[–] Thebazilly@pathfinder.social 2 points 1 year ago

Okami and Wind Waker are the first that come to mind. Both have aged beautifully.

I'm not the one asked, but the ones I can think of top of my head are Killer7, which had pretty cool gradient shaders and Borderlands drawn style.

It definitely caters to the OG gamers. Really respects GoldenEye 007.

I'm not the person you asked, but Katamari Damacy had a unique looks that still holds up perfectly, the only improvement to be made is using higher def textures for the later games and remasters.

I think Windwaker still looks fantastic, and Windwaker HD looks as good as any recent release.

Also, Hades is a more recent game with very stylized graphics that look absolutely stunning.
