Video Game Art

Video games are not mere time killers. They are albums of sound, aesthetics, animation and narrative.

This community is in appreciation of that. Screenshots, fanart, animations, gameplay clips. It is all welcome here.

The one common thread should be an eye for the aesthetic. This is not a place to discuss mechanics or stats, but to show off simply the artistic, expressed through the video game medium.

  1. All rules of the parent instance apply. That is, sopuli.xyz
  2. Include the name of the game your post is associated with in the post title.
  3. If your post is fanart, include a link to the artist in post body, if you can. You may also ping @saucechan@ani.social to have it attempt to find the source for you, and provide it in a comment.
  4. MARK ANY TEXT SPOILERS, as for art, do not post content that outright spoils key moments of a games narrative. Content that can only be understood with the context of having played the game, is ok.
  5. No generative AI art.

Yeah...seems like it'd be pretty light if you include the armor, though, if it's power-assisted.

Samus Aran also lives in the future. We also don't know how medical, genetic engineering, nutritional, or such changes might alter human physiology in the future, and that could be pretty substantial.

Prior to WW2, Japan didn't have access to a lot of milk.

Subsequent to WW2, Japan started importing a lot of milk.

The average Japanese height shot up.

This doesn't have "age at 18", which is what the chart I'm remembering had and is probably a better metric, but here:

Japanese men who are 80+ years old average 5 feet, 3.8 inches. Japanese men age 20-24 average 5 feet, 7.7 inches.
