Exactly why I prefer smaller games with either unique art styles and character designs, than super heavy "gritty and realism". Even games like Dynasty Warriors Origins, while having realistic looking characters, are still stylized in certain aspects.
Although I have yet to play it, I've always thought that Sifu looks fucking great. I'm not the biggest 2D game guy, so I love me an indie game that looks great in 3D. Like Hi-fi Rush, now that I think about it.

It's like someone ran an A.I. uprez filter over a Fable game. Something fucking screwy happened here, because I can't imagine an experienced AAA studio signed off on this Small Soldiers-looking weirdness. I was somewhat joking about the A.I, but... :unsure:
I think some higher up dipshit genuinely thought they could appeal to the Fortnite crowd with this art style. It would be even sadder if the real reason was that they actually thought this looked good.

That might not be too far from the truth - Afterall, EA forced Bioware to use the Frostbite engine eventhough it wasn't ideal for RPGs and the team wasn't familar with it.

Let us now finally close the door of Bioware's crypt and stop pretending that "the next game's gonna be great, guys, it'll be just like the good old days all over again".
I never enjoyed nor was interested in a Bioware game my entire life. Not helping matters are that indie studios have been running circles around them since the mid 2010s now.
