Can you play and enjoy a game with an art style you don’t like?

Ehhh...I think that's a bit of a stretch.

Its not really chibi but it has a very “youth” oriented look to it, even the older characters like Raven kind of look like teenagers

Honestly, i can’t even look at certain games. Some I hate the art style so much even if people tell me they’re good I’ll just ignore it. Stuff that looks like this is just a flat out no fukking way.

And if im being honest xenoblade kinda borders this style too, but its saved by extremely good animation and mech
I can't enjoy games with art i don't like. I prefer them to try to go as photorealistic as possible. that anime or kid cartoon type stuff is always a no from.
people hype of breath of the wild for example. I just can't get into it.can't stand anime in particular. they all look the same to me. probably everyone has to rock crazy hairstyles to stand out.
I remember some nintendo dev criticized ghost of tsushima for having ugly characters. i was like :mjlol: i would never have play that game if they looked like a kpop band instead.

Yeah, 15 years of tech difference will do that for ya. Still wasn't chibi in Vesperia (oddly enough, I initially read you saying it was Berseria, but the sentiment still stands). It's definitely a more animated look tho, but it was really good then and holds up well today.

Can't think of the last time I actually played and enjoyed an 8 bit style game.

This the kinda shyt that bytches think about when they hear of a grown ass gamer. And it ain't even that wrong of a stereotype cuz there's definitely an army of dweebs that stan this kind of foolishness. But I can't talk shyt cuz I just logged almost 100 hours of civ 6 in a week so I'm a nikka nerd right wit you nikkas :mjlol: :pachaha:

I only played persona 5 because I couldn’t ignore the hype and praise any more.

On the other hand, if a game has Cyberpunk vibes (Observer, Deus Ex MD, etc) I will give it a shot even if the reviews aren’t the best
