Gotta love bringing up Hades as an example of 'bad pixel art'
true
Technically everything is pixel art, since computers work with pixels, it's just the resolution which makes an image look more detailed.
technically not@@vicenteisaaclopezvaldez2450
it's ironic, simple. Delete this comment the FUCK of NOW
Honestly the only even remotely bad pixel art I have seen in an indie game are some of the overworld sprites in undertale
ik this is a joke video but i still wanna say:
i could literally not care less about graphics as long as it looks decent. partly because i've been stuck with the crappiest computer to ever exist and have to play lower graphics games or else my house will catch on fire but really i only care if a game's fun. like how are you gonna be complaining about "oh that blood splatter wasn't 100% accurate to how it would've actually went like in real physics" when you're having the time of your life
i hate the people that dislike every game that hasnt got rdr2 graphics
Same, as long as the game is fun i don't care about graphic
I have some sort of motion sickness to do with certain graphics (like deltarune, learned to get around that though) so i do somewhat care, but other than that i agree
FR, i have over 1000 hours in Terraria, which isn’t exactly known for its good graphics
Ngl, I've seen games from Subnautica all the way down to Rimworld, and old-school Dwarf Fortress, and middle grounds like Gmod and Deep Rock Galactic and all I can say is, YES, ABSOLUTELY YES, idc if the game looks pristine or dog sh- as long as it is good in general quality I'm vibing with it.
I love how he used music from hollow knight music for this.
would have been gold if it just abruptly stopped at "*SHOVELWARE* KNIGHT?? WTF?!" with no ending
Yeah I think that I faltered by not doing that
@@noortlefumbled, even
I wonder how many people thought this video was serious
Browsing through the newest comments, theres one above you
I did, i was this close to writing a 12 paragraph essay about it, or starting my own channel to debunk it, im so glad i read the comments first lol
me lol
i was fully prepared to hear some AAA ceo tell me that indie games all suck and that instead of playing them i need to play their barely finished shooter that only runs on computers with the gigatron-8000 hardware but then you hit me with "i dont know what this graph means but i hope it agrees with me" and immediately knew this was satire
I also like when a low graphics indie game doesn't run on the same PC that runs AAA games.
I want a hyperrealistic AAA game where all the budget went into the visuals. It needs to exceed the capabilities of the technology of our time such that no one on earth can play it.
star citizen
"just get a better pc"
crysis in 2007 lmao
lets be honest, the graphics dont even have to look nice, you can just code it poorly and have it vacuum all the FPS anyway
And it should play itself so that someone can render it into a series of un-interactive pictures. Although they'll probably need a cluster of a million super computers to do so. Wait, that's just a film? Well, it's not like there are games that basically do that anyway so it will be a novel and innovative concept.
This is what EA reads to children before going to bed as they become cogs in the the machine.
lmao
I absolutely love indie games :)

Indie developer here, can confirm that the reason my game isn't released yet after literal years of planning and development is because it's such a lazy low effort shovelware that it doesn't even deserve to be played /s
God tier satire
the constipated voice gotta be the most accurate part
My man's gonna have people coming after him not realizing this is a joke video 😭
Seriously though, this is awesome satire! Really funny and enjoyable :)
This is a masterpiece. 8 times out of ten a 2d game has won over a 3D game for me because shit those stories are crazy good. If you haven’t played Inmost I strongly suggest it. Also The Final Station has an awesome story
I can barely open Steam without a hundred pretentious indie "AAA demakes" (or 'parody games' as I call them) oozing their ugly lacklustre gunk all over my screen. Why on earth would I ever buy a reasonably priced, intelligent, unique, heartfelt passion project when I can lay down seventy quid on the latest iteration of the same game I bought last year but with fancier weapon skins and funnier victory dances? What am I, an idiot? Just because these "developers" failed to get real jobs at real studios, we're expected to give them money to support their "independent" delusions of grandeur. It's borderline obscene. Thanks for shining some light on this important but often ignored blight on the industry...
Being completely serious here I like 2D games more than Full 3D games
if you feel sad, just remember that there are people out there that unironically think like this (ik this video is a joke but people actually think like this lol)
bro I was so worried, thank god
Wait, this was about games? I thought it was about why novels are killing the movie industry.
dude go to the end
@@hollowknightenjoyer I did. Just as the video was a joke, so was my reply.
"I hate Indie Games!" *uses soundtrack form a popular indie game*
Im actually concerned that more than 0 people didn't immediately pick up this is completely satre great video lol
I’m so glad this was a joke. I was about to get violent.
Hollow Knight: 0/10
Background music:
Also 0/10, he just put that in the background to show us just how bad and annoying it is!
@@db9635 completely true i'm glad someone finally noticed
As a gamedev and a 2D pixel artist. I agree totally
At one point when I was in middle school, my younger brother said he's thinking of buying Terraria. I told him semi-jokingly that if he gets a 2D game he's dead to me.
A couple of weeks later, I've seen enough to make me want to give it a shot as well.
I now have 200+ hours in Terraria. I've played through the entire game twice, both times together with my brother. Since then I've mostly been playing 2D games of all sorts (Limbo, Dead Cells, Starbound, Carrion, Darkwood, and so so many others) and they have given me some of the most beautiful and unforgettable experiences I've ever had with a game. I still like 3D games too (Dark Souls, Sekiro, Journey, lots of first-person games etc), but I am much more open to any type of game now; I'll literally play anything.
i play everything but dead cells my favourite game
Same happened to my friend when i was kid i was playing symphony of the night on ps1 and i bought it on ps4 and platinum it so he check it and said wtf is bullshit after 2hours of playing it he cant believe it this game was made in 1997 and it is so good Most of 2d games will never lose their worth compare to the 3d games
I agree. How dare indie games come out fully functioning on day of release.
HAHAHAHA This was hilarious.
a great joke video.
tangentially related, the only issue i've got with some indie games are when the do the whole "cutesy game about depression" but like not in an interesting or nuanced way. you know the old meme "earthbound-inspired indie game about depression".
God bless you bro and keep grinding
❤️
I recently got into indie games and its been great. There is so much passion and love put into indie games. They are all usually unique in someway and there is so many of them while at the same time being shorter so you can actually get through them
Until you realise there just as bad as aaa
2:16 NOT THE OMORIS😱😭
Garten of Banban is 3D so we should accept that the as the one good indie game, alright guys
Gotta say the comunist group part cracked me.
I love that hes talking about hating indie games when there is a indie game music in the background
So true, we need more ultra realistic 4k ultra hd games which have 80% of the gameplay being forced filler content and cannot run on average hardware
This is a certified Triple A Moment
This video was brought to you by EA
Cyberpunk was made by inexperienced amateurs and scammers. CD Projekt Red will even go bankrupt soon because almost everyone refunded Cyberpunk. GO INDIE
noortle: “pixel art sucks”
Pizza Tower: “Am I a joke to you?”
And before your like: “itS uNreaListic!1!1!1!”, Peppino has 5000 frames, half of them are unused, and that’s only Peppinos sprites.
You get that this is satire tho?
@@SquidPartyDude 5000 frames,
jesus fucking christ.
@@polybius-jy5rc Ikr when I first played it I was shocked at how smooth everything looked
i know its a joke video but its really funny just listening to all the bad opinions about indie games while having hollow knight music in the background
INDIE GAMES KILLED MY GRANDMA
I love pixel art game and indie
What, nooooo!
Indie/AA games are not killing gaming!
Indie/AA games are suppose to destroy the triple AAA industry, not emulate the triple AAA industry.
Gotta love how you're using the hollow knight ost for this
Love how he uses indie games music at the end there
All the video is Hollow Knight music
This is what all my friends sound like. Sad.
I actually clicked on the video expecting a hot take that I'd totally agree with. I love my indie games but I think it may be going where mobile gaming went. Not necessarily monetization wise, but over saturation and sheer quantity of them. It's becoming harder and harder both for the gamers and the developers, to spend their money wisely and make a living respectively. There is only so much money gamers can spend after all...
I certainly hope we never get there, and the indie game scene stays healthy and clean :D
It seems you never needed the hot take because it was already within you 🙏
i love this video. i was on the edge all the way through. right into the favorite playlist
I am absolutely hate realistic graphics
so nostalgic, it reminds me of arguing with my friends in 2003
The true dark side of indie games are early 2010's german simulators.
OMORI
love the video im subing
According to CZcams, you made a Hollow Knight video. Congratulations
this video was so horrifying it crashed my CZcams app
Masterfully done sir!
Bravo.
this reminds me of that one video where the Zenitsu VA dubbed text some dude made saying how x games weren't real games lmao
10/10 video except you made me look at those hideous "pixel" things
The best satire is when you cant tell if it is or not
The best bait I ever took. 2 out of 10. Instant GOTY.
But... there are probably folks being serious with similar claims, that makes me feel a bit... scared.
My rage is getting off the charts even knowing this is a joke
I couldn't agree more
I genuinely thought this was serious until the "Shovelware Knight" joke
bud is yapping out of his mind rn
i thought this was real and was ready to fight lol
The funniest part of this video (I do know it’s a joke) is that he’s using indie game music in the back ground throughout the WHOLE VIDEO.
"enter the gungeon is a zelda knock-off" lol
you had me in the first half ngl
az's starfield rant video is making the rounds :)
Ok, i'm glad this is a joke. I got scared for a second.
Man I still play and mod halo 3 in 2007. Graphics don't mean shit and you can still have a fungame without having triple a slop graphics
It's a joke vid lol
I love the sarcastic ideologies of indie games, but it is a funny coincidence that everyone is making 2d games with pixel art
Yeah, that's why I play indie 2d game, my hardware limitations, my potato pc, I don't have the money to buy a new pc~
and fyi, my game collection is 100% pirated~
You almost had me there
I love how you used Hollow Knight Music for this (skong📢)
as a pixel artist can confirm I just draw stuff in mspaint and then shrink it until you can barely make out the lines
also I straight up saw a guy calling 90s fps games (and the modern takes on it) trash because the game mechanics aren't realistic
Damn, this was pretty funny. Keep it up.
the indie NORMIES
I'm not a fan of needing high graphics .. Gotta be fun and that's all that matters
DID you know Dead Cells actually is 3d?
crazy as it may sound, all the character models are 3d models that they put filters and shaders over to make it look like its pixel art.
they went through the work to make it 3d, and then chose to "downgrade" it to 2d pixel art. absolutely brilliant
for a second I thought you were being serious
Well, i know its a joke but some things are right, many indie game devs just copy stuff straight away without innovating, worst there are those who copy indie games that are also copies, just like in AAA and AA, a few games are greally great, then there is alot of knockoffs, then there is the bad ones.
There is a big difference between copying and making something that is part of a genre.
That is peak comedy & sarcasm.
you know the joke is obvious if even me of all people can spot it (im dumb as fuck)
real
"I want short games with blander graphics and less gameplay from people who are overworked, and I want them in 5 to 10 years!"
I didn't realize this was a joke at first. I was pleasantly surprised.
Found the guy who couldn't complete Hollow Knight =D
i mean i get the video but that still comes off as very VERY edgy, great editting though i'm sure it took a lot of time, good job !
Edgy? In what way I don't really see it as edgy.
Also thanks it did take a while :)
Tbh im kinda tired of the 2D pixel art platformer indie games
Speaking of which, if there any gamers out there that are becoming a indie game developer or be part of a indie/AA game studios, don't make a MMO rpg, or a Stardew Valley-like/cozy farming Simulator, or a rouge-like (especially Vampire Survivors ones or bullet hell/heaven ones), or mascot horror, or open world, or metroid-vania as your first game project that you made.
Try remaking games or make a knock-off version of a game like pac man, snake, angry birds, tetris, cut the rope, or better, make a fan game of Fnaf, Sonic, or Dark Deception.
Start something small, then build your way up to improve your creativity, 2d/3d modeling, coding, and development skills.
Pretty good video, but there's one slight error here. You said that Hollow Knight is a Dark Souls rip off, but as a Biology fan I can actually tell you it's the other way around, because Hollow Knight focuses on Insects, which actually started living on land earlier than Vertebrates, such as the humans you play as in Dark Souls. I cannot believe such an intelligent individual such as yourself would make such an amateur mistake!
gamer moment
I dont think all of the indie games that people say are great aren’t really that great but I think the reason that they are way better than AAA games is because they are able to capture what games captured so long ago, trying new things creating new concepts without playing it safe and creating a neche making a deep connection because they are actually really cool and aren’t playing it safe and doing it how everyone has gotten use to which I think is why everyone calls this recent year the best year for games but so many people have burned out this year that wouldn’t have burned out a while ago because most AAA Games feel the same not I’m concepts of gameplay but everyone wants the best graphics the best UI the most hours played but they don’t focus on story as well (not all but some to most) like Spider-Man 2 was a amazing but so so short and some of the arches felt flat but they had a 200mil buget, I also think that this is why remakes are doing so well is because they are taking the old games that captured that magic but the studios that aren’t fully AAA or don’t hold onto the same IP over and over again are making the great games like Elden ring, blood borne, demons souls or mister hunter, resident evil ect but in my mind games are games and I kinda hope indie games become the new AAA meta and puts the awful inexcusable AAA ( most) games that we have now in there place so they try something new also sorry if this is a rant it’s 4 in the morning I have school at 7 I’m high af and I ate 7 cookies
Good analysis I agree with how they capture the older and sometimes jank from old games, but bro go to bed early on a school night 💀
@@noortle bro not everyone lives in the same timezone as u
@@dubiousclouds Dude literally said "if this is a rant it’s 4 in the morning I have school at 7"
I generally thought this was a serious video and these were your actual opinions (which resulted in me disliking the video) until I reached 2:57 you started mocking the Starfield pronouns idiot with that video blurred in the background. I then read this video's description and that's when I un-disliked the video and when I got to the end, I then gave it a like. At first, I was thinking you were a clown; but thankfully after finishing this video, I now know that you're actually a comedian. Absolutely fantastic job man
bro at least they put love and effort into their games
Especially brilliant how you were pooping on 2D while you were using a 2D avatar. xd
should have saved this for april 1st
There's a lot of innovative 3D indie games that offer more than those lifeless triple A games, e.g., Deep Rock Galactic, Battlebit Remastered, Baldur's Gate 3, Grim Dawn, Elden Ring, The Witcher 3, Neon White, No Man's Sky, What Remains of Edith Finch, Slime Rancher, Ghostrunner, Stray, Valheim, Bomb Rush Cyberfunk and The Outlast Trials.
how...how the fuck is witcher 3, elden ring and baldur's gate 3 indie games lol
@@thonato295 They're more like AA but they're not a big company like Blizzard or EA, go look for information on how these project started. People have the misconception that indies games are all 2D lol.
very nice vid.
You should make a video in this style defending microtransactions, or megacorporations over employees
Not a bad idea
