In his latest journal

made a nice point about 2d graphics in video games, and how they are bound to make a come back. I very much agree with him ^_^
3d is, of course, great and allow an amazing freedom of movement in games, but there is some problem that come with that..
A very simple one is the fact that it's much easier and faster to do a background in game using 3D than if you were drawing it all in 2d by "hand"
So this means there is less time put in it, and often less love too... In my opinion, 3D graphics tend to lack a soul to them.. sure they are great, neat and cool, very realistic sometimes but... a little cold perhaps ?
Of course, there is definitely numerous games that make an amazing job at having living 3D graphics : Uncharted2 or Shadow of the colossus for example... but it's often the other way around in my opinion.
So to me it's so refreshing to see a game like, for example, Limbo coming out

It has extremely simple graphics but that are infinitely more powerful and striking than anything a ff13 could pull... at least to me
Or also this very cute new Kirby game presented at the E3, with characters made of fabric.
I personnaly do hope we will see the come back of many more such 2d games in the future, with much more emphasis on atmosphear, originality and creativity, rather than cutting edge graphics, that can sure blow you away but often severely lack of magic..
And lastly, have a look at that gallery of beautiful 2D animated backgrounds by Mark Ferrari, a master of the genre who worked on numerous old Lucas art games such as Monkey Island
[link]I don't know for you, but I find those incredibly beautiful, full of poesy and love from the author

I would kill to have a couple of them made for Felarya XD

About this "vore thing" : If you wonder what is vore : you could describe that as a fascination toward the act of consumption. A particular interest to see a creature eat another.
About my work : I try to do polished and well finished pictures so even people who aren't into vore can somewhat find them pleaseant.
If you don't like them just because it is vore please refrain from PM me about it...
