I finished looked at concept art on creative uncut...as much I could...A ton of it was either ugly, really boring, or like everything else...And most of it was medieval fantasy stuff...And I LOVE medieval fantasy...buuuut...the games that were medieval fantasy (most of the time) I hated soooo much.
THERE IS LIKE NO MODERN STYLED VIDEO GAMES OUT THERE! Yes, there are, and some of those I REALLY like. Modern styled, like, a videogame...cyber-ish...There needs to be more cyber fighting games (not that I've actually found the kind I'm thinking of...buuut).
Lemme show you the games with my favourite concept art (that I've never played):
This is GRANADO ESPADA...I have no clue what it's about, but those character designs are beatuiful!! TT^TT I really like the artist's style, the boys look gorgeous as well as the women do...*dies* So beautiful! TT^TT
This is from FRAGILE DREAMS...I actually heard this game is pretty good. I want to get it, but I heard it's also pretty short...TT^TT I don't want to play a short game, all my favourite games are RIDICULOUSLY long (Like Fire Emblem: Radiant Dawn)...though I'm not sure if Goemon's Great Adventure is long...it seems that way when you can't save (and you spend like 3 days straight not saving the game, then lose it all because you accidentally turned it off or something else, then you'd have to restart all over again)....I dunno why we never saved, I think we didn't have some kind of saving thingy on our N64...I can't remember...>.>
Oh, yeah, about Fragile Dream's concept art. It's probably the most original designs I've ever seen, especially on the boy...'cause he's wearing like a dress thing and a big pocket thing on the front and bunch of other things that he could actually use. The other characters are pretty original, too, except this one guy named Shin who looks like every other white guy (by white guy I mean guy with white hair, pale skin, and white clothes) except for ze sandals and socks...rarely ever see that on a character...for some reason...O.o
This one's NO MORE HEROES...my problem with it is that...why is it so very familiar to me? Like I've played it before or something...but I can't figure out when I played it or where, maybe I just heard of it. But Travis Touchdown...I feel like my brother has been telling me about him...but I can't remember why or what he was saying...Uhhh...I feel like I have a hole in my head (not literally, I mean like a place where my memories are missing). Anyways, I really like the dark style of the character designs and the...ummm...downtown city-like style of the designs? Anyway, I really like the designs, they're very original and creative.
This is Stella Deus: The Gate of Eternity...I really like the designs because they seem very futuristic and awesome and really creative, and I just like the look of them. And everything is sooo shiny! XD I really like the way how all the characters look! ^ ^
And, of course, PERSONA! XD I LOVE the designs of Persona and I really like the artist's style, too. I just love everything about the Persona designs! So I cant' really explain what I like.
But the all around best character designs are definitely the character designs for the King of Fighters characters. I LOVE their designs TO DEATH! I have no clue why! They're...like....rather plain, but they have a certain style to them. I just like the King of Fighters games anyways, too. So King of Fighters wins for best designs, music, and game play! >:) Really, you guys should go play it, it's soooo addicting...
I'd be playing it right now if it weren't for that fact that....I don't have any of the games...XD My brother does, but I don't know where or how...And he won't tell me...TT^TT
Anyways! Let those games be your inspiration for character designing! They definitely have inspired me!
And beware for medieval fantasy and oriental designs...they're everywhere....TT^TT
