Enemy types you don't wanna see in games because graphics are too damn realistic now
- Thread starter Crossing Eden
- Start date
My dream is for a game one day with giant spiders as realistic and creepy as the one from the second Harry Potter film.
Cus spiders in real life have a very specific look. They're unnatural to us and inherently the opposite of every aspect of a human baby our brain are hardwired to find cute.

Simply having enemy dogs growl when they die instead of yelp makes me feel waaay less bad when killing them. It makes them seem more like monsters instead of puppers.
That seems kinda presumptuous to me.
Im willing to bet the game will be substantive enough to justify it.
And even if it wasnt, those animations are looking like the best of all time.
I wasn't talking about the entire game:
"I've been one of the biggest detractors of TLoU2's marketing here so far"
Nor did I deny that the animations looked good.
I don't think there's any risk of us seeing them in a future videogame, sadly.
Outside of VR jump scares no enemy design made me go "nope". I feel it has to do with the still rather bad animation, sliding around, limbs clipping through solid objects etc. If these things where all physics driven and life like? That would be the time I may consider to nope out. Gfx are good enough at this point. The illusion is just constantly broken.
Imagine last of us 2 but twice as good.

I'm gonna go for a different type of nope and say "dogs as enemies". Not zombie dogs, not mutated dogs. Just plain dogs. The reason is that I love them and hate having to hurt them let alone killing. So with increased fidelity in both animation, sound and models it's becoming increasingly hard for me to play games that makes me do it to progress.
Amen. I love Super Metroid, but I still get anxiety when I get to Maridia. Same thing with Clanker's Cavern in Banjo-Kazooie. Underwater stuff always gives me the heebie jeebies.
Yes, definitely. It's a huge part of the reason why the spider in Limbo was so effective.
Oh no, I'm excited for that game but radscorpions were bad enough in Fallout, some spider scorpion monstrosity in a small space, fuck that.
There's nothing I don't want to be exposed to, including high definition, up close and personal recreations of my phobias. Scare me good.
Depending on the visual style of prime 4, there might be some creepy looking enemies. Some already looked creepy in prime trilogy.
Just think of hd realistic sheegoths. Metroids themselves might even look kind of creepy.
The creepier the better. Metroid is never going to be full on horror, so I wouldn't mind if they went all out on making enemies absolutely terrifying
But you're okay shooting 100s of humans?
(Not just you - everyone in here saying dogs..)
It's not that odd. We're used to killing or seeing humans killed in fiction. It's why movies often use animal abuse for a cheap way to make you hate the "bad guy".
None really. Even if it is something I'm afraid of in real life like spiders it doesn't bother me in a game.
Canine enemies because in RDR2 hearing wolves and coyotes whimpering is saddening. Also I do NOT want to witness Broodmother from Dragon Age Origins in modern graphics, sheesh.
I don't know about you guys but I am awaiting to see if Capcom has kept the naked zombies in remake 2 or censored them.
So you'd be OK with mauling in game attack dogs with your teeth?
If a game lets me do that then I'm definitely trying it out lol
fucking game of the year right there.
After seeing Mr X with PS4 graphics, Mr X.
That is some Berserk shit.
