@Cotillion other then her hair, I'm not sure where you're seeing a lot of hard angles. Granted, her hair is a major point of the game so I can see why it is a big deal.

I don't think her hair will really be that angular the whole time. I think they're hyping it up for the box art and overall celebratory nature of the release and success.

You can usually tell an art direction based on the logic of removal of elements. If you were to remove the "hard angles", this trailer would still carry exactly the same theme and emotional purpose.

Contrast that with Wind Waker, where the aesthetics define a lot of the identity.

Neither is good or bad. But I think the indicator here is dramatic flair and not full art direction

Re: Sony Doesn't See Nintendo As A Major Rival, More Worried About Microsoft Next Generation

Nintendo is better poised to dominate the gaming market again right now than anyone else. They've endeared themselves to most every demographic, console and mobile developers, and are developing INTO hardware that is getting cheaper instead of trying to bleeding edge into future hardware that's ultra expensive.

Anyone that doesn't consider them a major contender right now is really stupid.

Re: Future Versions Of FIFA On Switch Could Be Legacy Editions, Just Like FIFA 20

@norwichred It's very valid to hate on EA because this isn't a matter of the Switch being underpowered.

EA's developers are very bad at their job. They RELY on the bloated hardware of the PS4 and X1 to make up for that.

Any developer with the slightest real world experience knows this. That's why they have such poor developers - real ones don't want to go there.
