Video Game Art

2029 readers

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.

It's the dog for me. Really brings the whole work together and adds so much depth. Very well done!

Note that I did not produce this, source and artist credit is in the post body.

Scratch is the first spell i cast after long rest.

Find Familiar: Scratch. I think you get it when you throw him the ball at camp.

Wait, are you saying I could have a full party and then summon Scratch to have 5 characters?

[–] teft@startrek.website 2 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago)

You can have way more than just scratch. Currently in my party I have my 4 players plus scratch and two astral plane summons, Cambion and Deva. So I get 7 turns each round.

You can only have 4 fully fledged companions in your party but there's a lot of summons.

Does anybody else not let Scratch leave the camp because you're afraid of anybody hurting him?

[–] mikyopii@programming.dev 8 points 2 years ago (2 children)

Love it! This is my exact party.

[–] teft@startrek.website 3 points 2 years ago (2 children)

Laezel can stay part of your party?! Goddamit. I'm in act 3 and just assumed she fucked off back to the astral plane.

[–] mikyopii@programming.dev 4 points 2 years ago

I'm still on act one but I don't get the hate for her lol. She's rude and blunt but I don't necessarily dislike her. I just learned my lesson to never let her speak for the party.

[–] iforgotmyinstance@lemmy.world 1 points 2 years ago (1 children)

You gotta go save her and get her back mang. Or not. It's kinda up to you.

[–] teft@startrek.website 1 points 2 years ago (1 children)

I'll grab her next playthrough. I don't want to spoil myself too much on how to get companions yet.

[–] massive_bereavement@kbin.social 1 points 2 years ago

I'm on the same boat; I hoped she stick around as she seems op. Too bad I guess...

[–] massive_bereavement@kbin.social 1 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago) (1 children)

Wait, you don't have Wyll?

EDIT:NVM! I don't want to know what's going to happen to get the devil on my side.

[–] mikyopii@programming.dev 2 points 2 years ago

He's been in my camp all game lol.
