Thats modern western art that a lot of the game companies seem to be using now days, I forget the name of this new type of art… but you get the idea. Its just art.
I don’t mind it nor the new look, however I know were your getting at… just made me LOL really hard how strong you came with that comment! ahaha
SIDE NOTE: I heard from some game developers friends its also easier to animate and re-use androgynous 3d models for both male and female NPCs. However I think this is more an opinion/preference from a 3d artist who are told to create models that can be reuse later, so take it with a grain of salt.
Ok yeah, granted, that’s true, though it brings up the amusing idea of wearing practical archery clothing, armour and armguards, but then spending hours before every battle applying makeup to make her face more rounded and youthful.
Think of it as more “economical” or “industrial” art as some working in the industry like to call it.
WARNING: Some artist don’t like it when you use those term with this style… darn it I can’t remember what was the name of this style of modern art. Sorry, if I remember Ill post it
