I need your opinions...again...(Graphic related)

[Classic]

So, as we all know, I'm not working on my projects for the three available current systems.
Instead, our projects will be open source, and available for download on the PC.

While some games have amazing graphics for being "homebrew", we've decided not to push anything.
We're not going to let it be ugly, but it'll be a little rough around the edges, literally.


As a player, would you be upset with graphics like this?
Please note, these aren't the textures that will be used in the game. They are just placeholders for me so when I use lighting, I can see what needs to be lifted or modified.

This being said, you can expect Dreamcast/early PS2 like graphics.

Thanks for your time.

Woah early PS2 graphics? Like opening Cutscene of FFX? THIS IS GONNA OWN

Also I really don't care about graphics. As long as the gameplay is good

The contrast on the pants might be a bit too bright though.

It actually has a neat look to it tyler

Not even close.

Let me rephrase. It'll look more like a Dreamcast game than a PS2 game.

Then I think you'll be pleased.

I said those aren't the final textures.

I think so too. I could easily make things smoother, it's just the funding behind it I don't have for the programming and stability.

That should be fine. You could actually pull something like that off quite stylishly if you make it all colorful and beautiful.

[Classic]

As far as the video I've shown, I'm not necessarily talking about the graphics. The model you see it the model you get.

It's the animation.  
I'll be stuck animating this stuff myself, so it'll look like (if not worse than) that.

We're going with Windwaker cellshading.

[Samus Aran]

We're going with Windwaker cellshading.

oh god yes

I love the graphical style of Wind Waker so damn much. That's just part of the reason it's my favorite Zelda game.

[Geno]

Wait is it gonna be an online game or what

HELL YEAH

[Classic]

Oh, but the water will probably be an animated texture like the one in the video.  

It's all going to be a little gritty. If this project succeeds, then I'll improve the visuals on my future projects.

It'll be neat. Think Alice in Wonderland meets Windwaker.

Well, remember not to make the jeans so bright once you do make them.

Make a Gunblade weapon

Uh...there's a shovel.
