      it will be an endless cycle of brown-n'-bloom and glaring neon eyebleed because corporations have no fricking clue how to actually make good games and will just force their workslaves to make whatever's "in" right now or rather, whatever's "in" 5 years before the game's release

      Here's my take

      also this is more accurate. Original pic is literally what real life looks like during daylight. The horizon objects are blue, shadows become purple. Around artificial lighting, indoors, you might get grey tones at the end of day or night.

    "normal shading" is mario lit by unnaturally pure-white led light. stardew lighting is what mario looks like in a natural, sunlit environment.

        Notice how threads like the one on the left are almost always up and it's rare they actually talk about the game.
        Although, Pizza Tower threads got the same accusations lobbed at them even towards the tail-end when it was still almost all game discussion, yet gachaBlack person threads, master duel general, endless totk/starfield/bg3/ai spam this year, etc. had no action taken against them.

            it actually makes sense for the skin since blood makes it look like that, you'd know if you were white

            this pic actually makes sense, if mario was portrayed as a real plumber (but the SMW art style is nothing like that)

            Modern pixelshitters are like "Shadows are cool, highlightd are warm" DURING THE DAY AND NIGHT. Colorgays even invented a whole religion over-applying day warm night cool to all colors; color theory. It's all bs.

    heh heh. I haven't been here for a long time. here's my filename to prove my loyalty, how long i've been here. this is a funny OP. it's reversal of the typical stardew valley shading thread. i think it's hilarious. while i'm not quite an oldgay, i hope i can inspire newbies into seeing the truth. i can only claim i am a 2016* oldgay, but people can dispute this by saying i faked the filename.

            he;s being very unserious... but only with the amount of knowledge that a true mario fan could possess. he's a higher mario fan than me or you. he can make fun of little mario traits that we never even think of. it's because he loves mario. he wants to drum up discussion of mario. he loves mario. and if i would have to admit it, he loves mario more than me.

    What even is wrong with stardew valley shading, isn't it part of the game's aesthetic?
    Does it have to perfectly mimic Harvest Moon or something?

      >What even is wrong with stardew valley shading
      It's a shitpost, but it's true that a lot of pixelartist or indie devs overuse the warm colors to the point there is barely any variety in color or just doesn't fit the theme or look of the drawing.
