>>54116447I've despised this look since the very first time Octopath was announced.
At the time I felt like I was going insane, being the only one thinking it looked hideous in the midst of the entire planet acting like it was the best thing they'd ever seen in ages, while I kept thinking "this looks like RPG maker if someone installed a minecraft RTX mod on it".
Fortunately Octopath and sequels (not to mention countless indies) got extremely successful and made the look ubiquitous so now people have started hating it because it's popular, so I can at least feel like I'm not alone anymore, even if those on my side are anti-bandwagoning retards instead of people with functioning aesthetic sense from the start.
