I mean, I'd be pretty upset too if my gaming rig was only good for emulating PS1 games, half-finished Steam greenlight games and playing AAA multiplats like the Division and Fallout 4 but could you guys maybe tone it down a bit?
Who gives a shit? Just play Crash Bandicoot and Civ4, both are better anyway than the shit coming out now.

>people point out that Uncharted doesn't look more impressive than most general multiplats coming out now >go and shitpost a strategy game
Why? Seriously.
Charles Cruz
because graphics in shooters matters more than graphics in strategy games source: dorf fort
Owen Jackson
Because you say so?
Benjamin Parker
Because it's about gameplay OP. Imagine Uncharted with no graphics. Just low poly textureless models. Would you play that? No you wouldn't because it's shit boring gameplay. On the other hand if game with good gameplay has shit grafix, it doesn't matter. Thus the sucess of all the old civs, MoM, MoO, DF, etc. But you wouldn't know this because you're a stupid kiddo who only cares about graphics.

Just clucking hang yourself

Supreme Commander 2 was a fucking gem, right?
Aiden Harris
>graphics in shooters matters more than graphics in strategy games
Even if that were true (which is entirely subjective) it doesn't explain why Civ VI looks terrible.

Christopher Cook
Has anyone really given a shit about Civ graphics? It looks worse but who the fuck cares as long as the mechanics are improved upon.
Uncharted and Sony games in general make the graphics a huge selling point, its not the case for Civ
Cooper Wood
Bullshit. It's just because there's nothing out there quite like Civ and nothing that can compete. That's why for us it's either keep playing the old version of the game till they fix it about five DLCs later or play the new one with shit tier graphics straight out of 2006
Grayson Allen
>endless shilling and sonygger shitposting how UC4 will have the best graphics ever >it comes out and looks okay, they got btfo Gee, I wonder why people shitpost about it
Mason Cruz
Look, we all know that Civ VI is probably dogshit in appearance and content.
The fact remains that strategy games are not fun if their gameplay is not. If you want eyecandy and MOBA tier gameplay, you can always try late Dawn of War series.

Hope you preordered those GTX 1080s, this looks like it's going to need at least two of those.

>Uncharted is a game supposedly praised for looking amazing. >People point out that it doesn't, in fact, look amazing. >Civ VI announced. >It's clearly going for it's own unique art-style, not caring at all about photorealistic graphics or looking like a next gen triple A title. >Somehow this makes PC gamers hypocrites.
The logic here is funny, because there is none.
James Cook
Did you really wake up just to post this, Andre?
Easton Young
How are you not getting this?
The point is that PC players constantly shitpost about consoles holding them back and yet when an exclusive comes out it looks like dogshit
>N-NO, IT'S JUST THE AESTHETIC!!!
The aesthetic to look like a free to play mobile game.
Woah...

>The point is that PC players constantly shitpost about consoles holding them back
Source? I see this multiple times a day as a strawman and don't see anyone actually saying it
Nolan Price
Civ is a game that doesn't need hyper realistic graphics. The draw of the game is strategy so as long as you're able to recognize the individual units then thats enough. If anything the best way to describe Civ VI is "clean" and thats exactly how it should be.
Leo Adams
Seriously what the fuck. This shit looks worse than Civ V tbhfam.
Kayden Gomez
No you're the one who is not getting it here.
PC has so much POWER that developers need to be artistically appealling instead of just photorealistic to sell.
Gavin Green
You either literally just started coming here or are in serious denial
If you'd just said those people were irrelevant shitposters I might be inclined to believe you
Nathan Carter
>simple graphics = bad graphics Civ VI looks fine to me in any case ease of use of the user interface is the really important graphical part of any strategy game
but yeah graphics matter in shooters waaaaaayy more than strategy games in strategy games most of the gameplay information is presented as text and numbers in tooltips; charts etc. If the graphics are not up to par you can still understand what's going on provided the rest of the game has good production values
in shooters most of the gameplay information is presented as the animations going on around you in real time; if the graphics are not up to par you do not understand what is going on
A shit strategy game is decided on its gameplay and not its graphics A shit shooter is decided on both because graphics are integral to its gameplay
Andrew Rivera
>graphics >in a strategy game
For what purpose?
Isaac Sanchez
or its a bait thread and you are the one who is new
Colton Nelson
>implying the ps4 could compute ONE turn of civ VI without catching on fire muh graphix
Aaron Bennett
How does feel that a iOS game has more gameplay than Uncharted 4?
Charles Ramirez
Civ V actually looked pretty impressive at the time, why does Civ 6 actually look worse?
Jeremiah Ramirez
strategy game players (especially turn-based and grand strategy) simply dont give a fuck about graphics. see: all the paradox grand strategy games which are just 2d maps with a gorillion of simple menus and stat screens.
its a completely different target demographic - console players (and AAA game players in general) care a LOT about graphics. you see it all the time, they whine and laugh and complain and gloat about graphics all the fucking time. you NEVER see strategy game players care about graphics at all.
Lucas Green
all these pcfag tears
>g-graphix don't even matter guise
all this back pedaling is fucking hilarious
Christian Bennett
>PC players constantly shitpost about consoles holding them back
you realize that these are complaining about the pc version of multiplats being a shitheap compared to similar games that were made for pc only?
or do you seriously believe people go >FUCKING CONSOLES! THEYRE THE REASON MY DORF FORT STILL HAS ASCII GRAPHICS!
Caleb Edwards
Would you trade a better artstyle for a longer development period? I really really hope they are going simple to its easy to add things in, not just because fuck you
Josiah Thomas
>you NEVER see strategy game players care about graphics What a load of shite, plenty of people enjoy good graphics in their strategy games. The only difference is that strategy players dont care if it isnt pushing the boundaries of technology, since gameplay is the key element.
Andrew Rogers
>people bitching about graphics in a strategy game
Gavin Miller
They do,in fact dont they cry when a multiplat doenst go to pc?
Jaxon Cruz
Even the whole "I ONLY CARE ABOUT GAMEPLAY" excuse doesn't work, this is just straight up bullshit honestly, it looks like a fucking cellphone game or a ps2 strategy game with shit graphics. This is insulting as fuck when you fucking KNOW they have a big budget on these games
