Wtf she looked so much better
Wtf she looked so much better
Soul vs soulless
50k sales
2m sales
400+ people involved
6 years to make
Budget must have been enormous. Even if most of those people were only working on it for a year or 2. There's no way it's broken even.
We need her face to be even more potatoed masculine in nature
the nu version actually looks similar to the original, they just made her jaw a lot squarer for some reason
Left looks like she's from a 2004 PC game
Yeah, soulful like the first anon said.
Left is worse
Right is also worse
And that's a good thing
how do you even wake up in the morning?
left look so much better. this game could have had an actual artstyle.
I'm so fucking sick of photoscanned slop.
What's the ring around her eyes? Some kind of makeup?
wow it's like she aged 6 years
I like both, but I can understand that the right would generate more revenue with the normalfags.
Now I am curious how real life Alicia would've looked like.
400+ people involved
Sandfall was like 8 people before 2022 RETARD
Putting every employee of your publisher and every employee in the sound studio that recorded your VAs does not make them developers RETARD
literall soul vs soulless
super realistic UE slop needs to die
LOOK AT THE SKIN TONE
YOU CAN'T TELL ME MAKING A WHITE CHARACTER SAND-COLOURED ISN'T WOKE
AND SHE HAD A GENERIC PRETTY FACE THAT THEY MADE MOON-SHAPED LIKE COUNTLESS OTHER WOKE FEMALE DESIGNS
SHILLS WHERE THE FUCK ARE YOU
This is retarded bait. Left is from fable or some shit. Initial Maelle design was some edgy grim reaper ghost thing.
It looks like Fable, cute.
This is not real. Clair Obscur's development is very well documented and it never looked like this, from their We Lost demo in 2019 Maelle looked edgier but it was still UE4.
And in the Project W demo in 2021 all characters looked the same as they do on release except Sciel was a blonde bimbo
I prefer right.
are you purposely trying to manifest schizophrenia within yourself? because you've been at it for a while
This is 2019 Maelle
youtu.be
Right is face scanned VA, left is the voiceless temporary face
Idk why they always HAVE to look like their VAs
But what if she was rendered with the incredible power of Unreal engine 5.
she looks absolutely nothing like her VA and it isn't a face scan
you would pedo faggot
lmao
you forgot the fps counter tho
SOUL
it renders at a solid 60 fps. (15 real frames, 45 AI generated)
people can't even tell that left is AIslop
grim
Don't tell them or you'll create a contrarian paradox of aisloppa bad vs old good new bad.
made for skullfucking and gaping anal
Kinda, yeah. Although my first thought was Asterigos.
left: better design
right: better graphics.
threatinteractive pls
in what way is it better.
It doesn't look better.
would you rather look a a beautiful vibrant painting?
or an uncanny valley imitation of a real persons acne ridden skin pores?
absolutely not
left looks hideous
holy shit this is perfect
Kek
Looks like a Sims character
soul vs soulless
fucking hate mocap faces
It's sold more than Ubislop's Assasin's Creed Nippon.
That took over 5 years with a headcount of over 2500...
Le French JRPG is doing fine.
CRT is soulful
this isn't
make up your mind Anon Babble
Sims3 vs. Sims5
TS5 is going to suck. You wanna know why? It's on UE5
WILD
expedition 33 situation is CRAZY
Yes she does. That's Jennifer English with a different haircut
It's not CRT, it's about UE5's rendering quirks.
God I miss that brief period a decade ago when we had smooth, highly detailed hair, before devs got obsessed with rendering muh every single strand
Not really, they changed from a cartoony artstyle to something more realistic.
actual artstyle
Yeah, it's called "generic PS2 game".
Not really, old model she looks like a knock off of a WoW npc.
Left is cute. Right is uncanny valley
every ps2 game has the same art style. "the ps2 art style"
absolute retard.
Why did they change it? Even her hair looks terrible in the new one, bitch use some shampoo.
wtf she looked so much better
no she didn't you retard stop pretending to be stupid
but head is bigger somehow
This is exactly the shit that I hate. They decided to abandon any kind of stylistic look and just go for "muh realism". It's so boring.
Am I retarded and missing the joke? Left one doesn't even exist to begin with.
before Tyrone
after Tyrome
she looks like a fucking weg character on the right
I say the red hair was an improvement
Anon Babbleniggers falling for clickbait
Looks Fortnite style. Is this some stock Unreal thing?
THIS IS AI CLICKBAIT FUCKING NIGGERS
THIS IS NOT HOW GAME DEVELOPMENT WORKS
so I'm going to make a heckin soulful PS2 Fable low poly model, then UEmagic it into photorealism
EARLY DEVELOPMENT MAELLE LOOKED LIKE A DEFAULT UNREAL ENGINE 4 PAWN WITH FREE ASSETS
Jesus Christ
NOOO, WHY ISN'T EVERY GAME FORNITE??
Games do change art style mid development sometimes. Borderlands 1 did it.
TF2 as well, but huge overhauls like that are a rarity.
Clair Obscur in particular has a very well documented development history, and it kept the same art direction since the first pieces of concept art, except toning down the purple lighting in the overworld.
This is what that character looked like in concept art at the time. The ponytail only started showing up in late 2021
More like they made a game and then switched to UE5 when they saw metahuman and their gigantic free 3D model assets and just threw everything they had in the garbage.
90% of modern game dev is just searching for assets online instead of making anything
they put her through the "3D Realistic Graphics" filter which also makes women's chins MUCH more masculine. Seriously the change in jawline is like Geralt in Witcher 1 -> Witcher 3.
jfc I guess this place really is just full of retards and children now
Bro, the game was done before they recorded the voices. They didn't facescan the VAs, and that's why lipsync is fucked in some scenes.
Is this the new meta?
Keep a small team to do the solid skeleton of a game, the hire a 100+ people studio for a few months to make stuff around the base you created?.
Actually looks better for how it shades hair and hides sharp edges
What the fuck anon, how did you do that?
nailed it
Nigga that's how every games are made, even AAAA slop. While 99% of the studio is making a game you can a skeleton crew working on prototypes and doing pre production work for the next game so they don't have to fire everyone when the game is out.
Even third parties fishing for contracts have a playable demo so the publisher will be interested in supporting them.
No the new meta is to not doing anything and buy assets on the unity store so you don't have to actually pay anyone and it's much, much, much cheaper.
Those 3000+ employee studios still do that moron. Ubishart heavily outsources on top of their 8000+ full time staff
Maelle if she Fortnite
Soul
Anon Babble is so mindbroken by their own contrarianism that they're now calling 9/10 women ugly
