>>46383727No, I genuinely hate all chibi artstyles and want Japanese games to stop using them. Chibi artstyle is not a "real" artstyle as in "I think this is the best possible visual representation of my game"; it's always used because it's cheaper and easier to make than either a 2D game with good sprites or a properly scaled 3D game. It's an in-between for talentless hacks and cheap devs and it has no fucking soul. Fuck chibi, fuck Bravely Default, fuck Animal Crossing, fuck the 3DS version of Atelier Rorona, fuck Dragon Quest 9, fuck Dragalia Lost, fuck Rune Factory 4, fuck the Secret of Mana remake. If you don't have the budget or technology to make full-scale 3D then learn to fucking draw, small scale will always look better with 2D sprites than fucking chibi.
>"But I like some of those games!"And every single one of those games would look better if it was either in full-scale 3D or in 2D sprites.
