Back then it was a limitation of the hardware, nowadays it's a design choice.

>People will never make Indies in the graphical blocky style of early PS1 games

It's an untapped market dammit!

Neo Geo easily had one of the best hardware designs ever. It was basically a pimped out Genesis/Mega Drive.

There's else Heart.Break() and some other indie games in that style, user. You should keep up with indie games better than that.

>from 26 years ago

That's a bartop from this very decade, though.

...........

When dealing with unscrupulous indie devs, one should keep in mind that there are modders delivering better than AAA graphics for free.

Yeah but do you how much time, money, and manpower that went into those great looking games?

Still more than what indies have

See

>one should keep in mind that there are modders delivering better than AAA graphics for free

REVOLUTION 60 ON STEAM WHEN!????????

it's just two hipster games with color filters

hipsters can't do 8 bit, can't do 16 bit , can't do 32 bit
what the hell are they able to do?

Modders have all the time in the world though. They work on there projects with literally almost no restraints. They aren't restrained by a budget either. They got nothing to lose.

Indies still have an announced games with a time window in place and budget concerns, and if they take too long then people get pissy, and if they run out of money then do a Kickstarter or sometimes a second one.

>can't do 8bit

What?

>Indies still have an announced games with a time window in place and budget concerns, and if they take too long then people get pissy

This is the most surreal lie I've been fed in this week, and the previous one were quite surreal indeed, as they came from sonnygers claiming pc could not run old dos games as if dosbox never existed, and their game that never ran would turn into another game at each part of the conversation.

I'll adress your faggotry now.

Indies are independent, so they have no time window, no budget concern in the same line modders don't.

And people don't give two flying shit about indies.

and if everything fails they refund their backers and get away with it clean

>Neo-Geo games
>Made by a huge team of well paid professionals

>2010's era independent developers
>Largely one basement dweller doing 90% of the programming, artwork, and sound, and outsourcing any little bit he can't do on his own

What do you expect? Give indies some slack.

t. one man indie dev who is making a game for Steam right now.

>no man's sky delayed
People got pissy

>mighty no. 9 delayed
People got pissy

>Second half of that double fine game delayed
People got pissy

You're that special kind of retard aren't you?

>Made by a huge team of well paid professionals

incorrect.

>t. one man indie dev who is making a game for Steam right now.

If your game is a 8bit parody please go back to neogaf

>Indies are independent, so they have no time window, no budget concern in the same line modders don't.
>And people don't give two flying shit about indies.

You say that, but Sup Forums screams bloody murder if a dev even hints a game might get delayed, or a screenshot leaks that shows a single bug.

>mfw i own a neo geo 4 slot in my living room, and we drink beer and play mark of the wolves among others every weekend

I CAN'T WAIT FOR REVOLUTION 60 THE TRUE 64BIT POLYGON INDIE GAME

Not all of Sup Forums since I obviously am not giving here a flying shit about undertales and other 3bit graphics games.

I already was young and played these, so I want you to actually fucking work and make a good game unlike what technology impeded back then, unless you hate money, that is.

Good, I'm sure your silence on the issue is a great comfort to the developer getting thousands of angry emails when he doesn't respond to a kickstarter question fast enough.

Well you're just special little snowflake aren't you?

Yes, go back to tumblr, I mean, you're the sjw indie playing shitter, so you belong there.

Ah-bloo-bloo-bloo

>It's because of something silly

No, it's becasue you support badly done shitty games with nothing interesting nor fun, so it must be stopped, just like your breathing.

Buckle up kid. Someday you'll find out that people like things you don't like

Theres that one Japanese indie game that looks like early RE/SH and a lot of people here shat on it for the dev being "lazy".

>Default engine and bought assets

>like indies
>people who like indies

>nor fun
>opinion

>people like things you don't like

How is this an argument though? There are literally people who like being peed in the mouth.

Ok? What's your point?

The problem is that what qualifies as "indie" is getting more and more vague as it became a status symbol over a description.


Like Skullgirls isn't indie at all by classic definition, but it's independently managed.
Games like Devil's Third had basically no time limit from the engine change and was completely independent at a time.
Journey is second-party where the only obligation was deadlines, but it easily got TWO.

>What's your point?

My point is that you are supporting indies today again and then you cry like your asses are full of bees when an undertale happens.

>undertale, fez, braid, limbo, gone homo, revolution 60.. the list of horrible indies goes on and on

What you said was utter nonsene.
I'll leave your shitty dying thread, and leave you to your AAA call of duty and madden franchises.

Call of duty is better than any indie game

>I'll leave your shitty dying thread

But this is your thread, I came to ruin it.

They did it back in the mid-90's with limited internet access, no tutorials and their own wits. People of the modern era have more opportunities than ever to seek advice from experts, type in a game's name and get ripped sprite reference, and study. Unfortunately they also have more opportunities than ever to sit on their thumb and complain about things, including how hard it is to make their own things in a world where it's never been easier to make your own things.

>Why does a game with a big budget for it's time, with multiple professional artists with years of experience look better than a game done by a little team of amateurs with a small budget?
>B-but muh cherry picked examples!
>B-but indie games are evil!

>incorrect.
Nice source retard.

Funny since a lot of SNK devs used to work at capcom during the days of final fight and the first street fighter, games that had revolutionary graphics and animations.

This doesn't apply to every snk fighter but at least in Kof 96-98 and the two last blades titles, every stage was made by one artist with around 6 months of time to polish it. The average indie title has a couple of artists working on the entire game and in some cases these are also the guys behind the code of the game.
But it's cooler to hate on indies and act like a contrarian I guess.

Nice projection bud. I wouldnt buy an arcade cabinet that specializes in 2 player co-op and fighting games without friends to play with

>Metal Slug
>big budget
>multiple professional artists
>2 is now considered 'multiple'
>muh indie narrative

If you don't want indie games to be mocked, make better indie games.

Please stop comparing SNK to Indies, I don't want these fruity assholes thinking they are even remotely comparable to the gods that worked on the neo Geo titles. Thanks!

Their pseudo-8-bit graphics wouldn't even be okay back in the 80s

And better gameplay than 100% of modern AAA games!
