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.

If only there was a FOV slider. Why is it so low?! Makes me super nauseous. It can't be more than 70 or maybe 75. But I want at least 100.

I really enjoyed the first game. I hope the sequel will come to PC eventually, it really is gorgeous.

I have a PS4 Pro so I got Forbidden West on launch, look forward to it. Despite some gripes I had with some mechanics, it is good, and the story left me starved for more.

Felt really betrayed when the DLC turned out to be ps5 only. Back to PC-only I go.

Maybe the best looking game I've seen

Never heard of this game but I’m guessing it’s something my computer can’t handle lol

Forbidden West is on PS4/5 only.

The first game, Zero Dawn, runs even on the steamdeck. Huge recommend, both games are fantastic.

Oh damn.. honestly I don’t have any game system since the Xbox 360 came out lol, is there going to be a PS6 soon? The only thing that dissuades me is the cost of games.

Zero Dawn is regularly on sale on PC, and presumably Forbidden West will come to PC eventually, too.

Sony seems to be taking PC porting very seriously. Rift Apart just landed on steam, and it's a flawless port.

I can't wait for the PC port of this one. I've spent hundreds of hours in HZD.
