      >real people are ugly (example: ure mom)

      I remember when I was 14 and my classmates made this reaction when they saw her like who's that hot chick and I told them that's my mom.

        The one in the left looks like she will blast your face off if you look at her wrong but would be an understanding and loyal woman if you do romance her, ultimately making her a good soldier and killing hordes if need be if it's for (You).
        The one in the right looks like he will convince all the homosexuals in the barracks to go on strike until you give them money for estrogen injections and other free luxuries then post selfies on twitter posing with the weaponry but refuse to actually fight.

              Zarya is one of the only good characters from Overwatch. Weightlifting, racist Russian is pretty good But still a far cry from Heavy.

      Man that's what I'm talking about right there, what an example.
      A fricking robot Dragon Ball Z lookin ass hedgehog crouching moonwalks backwards on rocket skates before jumping on a giant emerald to power up and go robot super saiyan while a humanoid rat with four penises, spikey knuckles, lego shoes, and dreadlocks gets ready to square off with him while a floating island hangs in the balance in the background.

      No dialogue. No pop culture references (DBZ homage =/= mecha saying "I'm gonna go super saiyan on your ass, motherfricker!"). No forced political allegories. Just Gaming. Just Fiction.

        Jesus Christ, Last of Us 2 is just a 70's grindhouse revenge movie with zombies. Why did everyone go apeshit over it? Spec-Ops the Line does it better, AND it incorporates your dude going crazy into the gameplay, which is the point of a fricking VIDEO GAME. Telling a story isn't as important as making one that the player actually interacts with. Even if the choices were fake to the player it still provided something that made us think about our actions instead of making us watch a fricking movie in between shooting sections. The actions of the character in Last of Us murdering people to in the cutscenes thinking violence is wrong and not killing the b***h that murdered her adoptive father is such a fricking HUGE disconnect between gameplay and plot. SNOY paid for all the hype and normies had only that shit to play on their shitty consoles and that's why it blew up as big as it did. So many other games have better stories, better characters, better plots and worldbuilding. I don't understand why people fellate Last of Us 1 and 2 so fricking much.

          the westoids have been slurping suffering slop for decades wanking themselves to death about how suffering is LE REALISTIC and therefore good
          then come the latest eceleb shilled shit, fear & hunger, made by a literal who weeb, and the guy utterly BTFOS three decades of movie games by actually making the suffering the gameplay itself, like a fricking VIDEO GAME should and even wanked slop like dark souls failed to do

      Only a Ganker moron would be fooled by OP's image. One is from a realistic game, the other is from a cartoony game. Put a fricking Guilty Gear on the left side and suddenly they look pretty similar. But that would be fine because Guilty Gear is LE NIPPON and therefore awesome by default. Zoomers are a fricking embarrassment.

    The west has always sucked off realism. It's why for example Last of Us is so overrated in the story department, why animation is literal kids stuff most of the time, and even when its not most organizations ignore or scoff at it and just vote disney or whatever their kids liked, and why all disney's animated classics keep getting soulless live action remakes. Why stuff with stylized graphics or non human characters are made less compared to before. Live action/realistic was always considered the final form of media, and being forced to make games with stylized/animal/abstract characters was just coping with limitations.

      I think that's the irony OP is trying to convey my friend
      Left employs a "realistic" artstyle yet still manages to remain fantastical, imaginative, and appealing
      Right employs a more unrealistic artstyle yet still feels the need to have its character """accurately""" represent an equivalent real-world example

    Crapcom been pushing all kind of realistic shit with their photorealism facescan tech, so you're not totally correct.

    I absolutely hate the "realism = good" mindset. Everything has to look realistic and ugly now, like why? It's a game, it's fiction. Just make it look pretty and appealing.

    A, because reality has ubiquitous and frequently-annoying rules that fantasy does not possess, and
    B, the juxtaposition between significant amounts of reality's rules and fantasy's lack thereof is charming in that it blurs the lines between the two
