2D still packs way more impact, clearer key poses/frames, defined movement, more interesting overall. Its not a 2D vs 3D problem, but an artistic problem. 90s SNK artists used put a lot of attention in the key frames and animation.

@juststatedtheobvious9633

It's also a budget issue. The difference between an expensive 2d fighting game in the 90's and the amount of talent/money needed to compete with top tier 3d models and animations is obscene. Especially since they can't go full anime, which would have saved them a lot of texture problems. Plus, the 90's games had the advantage of representing fashion trends when they were exciting, rather than guessing how to make them seem relevant 20 plus years later. Considering all the handicaps involved, this is surprisingly faithful adaptation. They just need to work on the clothing more. Beyond that, only the steroid abusers and Mai stand out as looking cheap and unrealistic.

The pixelated look better because the style blend seamlessly with the characters’ exaggerated postures and movements, which in turn giving them more personality and individual uniqueness. It doesn’t translate well into 3D so they changed a lot of them to fit its style but normalization isn’t what you would want in a fighting game where character design and traits represent a huge chunk of its appeal. At least that’s what I think. I can never get use to the 3D style.

Character's head tracks you, and your head tracks the opponents, so if you are practicing your jumps and hops against a dummy in training you'll seem them nod their head up and down. It's pretty funny and neat. Also Mai's animations are really well done too. Any time she jumps she puts her fan in her mouth, and when she lands you can almost always see her take the fan out of her mouth except when animations get cancelled by buttons. Also if you use any fan attack in air she'll always take out the fan and put it back in her mouth. There's probably more neat little stuff they put in, but those are the main ones I noticed

@WTFHAX93

2 жыл бұрын

As a Tekken fan myself, I think Tekken's 3D has seen a considerable regression in their artstyle. In my opinion they peaked in Tekken 4. The attention to detail in some of the facial animations or body proportions have not translated well to later games, especially Tekken 7. In T4, characters were much leaner, which is specifically seen with Kazuya, Paul or Marduk. Their body build in that game is much more realistic, despite much smaller polygon count. Hell, Marduk already had his legs shortened and his upper body made bigger in T5. Tekken 7 has very stiff facial expressions, and the models overall have been homogenized quite heavily. Most of the girls have a very similar build, while most of the guys became blocky and super muscular (with the exception of Bob). Leaner guys like Marshall Law, Hwoarang, Lee, Eddy, or even Jin to some degree, were considerably buffed up compared to their previous appearances (compare T4's Marshall to T7's Marshall, the difference is astonishing).

Yeah I'm also on the same camp that thinks KOF 15 models and graphics look really good (except for the fire and ice effects, those can still be improved). It's a better looking game than KOF14; character expressions and faces look much better. Also I can look at the character's model in game, and look at the portrait by the health bar, and see that they look almost if not the same. The same thing can not be said for sprite based games with official artworks or even ArcSys's GG Xrd and Strive. I like GG a lot, but both Xrd and Strive use a less detailed head model when you are just fighting and only uses a highly detailed hrad model during special cut-ins or win screens. Overall I'm just really satisfied with the graphics. It's obviously not going to look like MK11's graphics, cause Neatherrealm is going for that realism look which I don't think would fit KOF. If SNK is to have their 3D models have the most similar animations to their 2D counterparts, I think going for this kind of artstyle is the best way to do it.

With 3D I assume the character model has some physics or bone rigging which keeps the anatomy in check unless we are talking about Arcsys games, cause those are kind of different: DBFZ and GG Xrd/Strive tends to manipulates their 3D models to have crazy proportions in order to make them look good at certain camera angles. It looks awesome in the intended angles, but looks super weird behind the scenes from unintended camera angles.

2D is classic and awesome, but 3D has its benefits. You can do dynamic lighting with 3D models which you can't with 2D (you can simulate shadows with pixels, but can't really do dynamic shadows, not in the way a 3D model does it at least from what I know). I think the transition to 3D is just a natural shift for the industry. Arguably cheaper to produce too. Now that KOF15 is out I think SNK did a great job with the models. edit: there is a weird thing going on for 3D though. I didn't notice it much in game but I should point it out here. A little hard to explain so I'll try to explain it using a brawler like streets of rage 4 for example. In a brawler you can walk up and down the tiles, so you can move more into the background or come towards the foreground, which gives the game's field a depth. KOF is a 2D fighting game, so everyone technically is standing on the same tile/ same depth. However if you compare Heidern's models at 0:30 to Terry's models at 0:36, you can see how Heidern's posture allows him to stand at the same depth for 2D and 3D, but because Terry's posture has him facing the opponent more, his 3D model steps a little into the background. As a result Terry's forward foot for his 3D model is in a different spot (much higher/into the background) than the 2D sprite's forward foot. Terry's 2D sprite has a similar posture to the 3D, but he is much more flat and not really stepping into the background. This is likely due to anatomical reasons. SNK probably can't keep the feet in the same spot without warping Terry's anatomy. Just an interesting observation The above observation is much less noticeable for character's whose posture has their feet pointed towards the camera, or if their feet are really close together.

2D sprites look always better, at least in fighting games. They're much more charismatic but also more expensive, given the fact that the creation of the KoF13 sprites almost bankrupted SNK/Playmore a second time, I can understand their choice of moving to 3D figures.

@@braldoca After all they were 2d gods. But currently they are still inexperienced with modern 3d. Anyways they just need time. Like, FF1 wasnt a technical masterpiece in 91 either... It needed time too. SNK cant overcome their limitations from night to day. They truly didnt care much about investing in 3d graphics, and are just suffering the consequences - now they are behind all other fg companies.

Great 2d sprites will always remain timeless.

Robert hair was cool,

Definitely a huge step up from 14, 13 is still absolutely gorgeous but 15 is pretty good too in a different but similar way.

2D will always has a better chance of standing the test of time compared to 3D but SNK I'd such a good transitioning some of the characters.

They came a long way.

SNK did a really good job transitioning these characters to 3D, they have total respect for their own previous 2D works. In KOF XIV it was weird at start, but in KOF XV it's everything just looking good from the get-go.

Funny how a few pixels have more soul than a gazillion polygons

Excuse me, but what do you do to extract the 3D models from the game?

love how king is just kinda vibing in 3d

I think they should consider cell shade for future instances so that way they can improve how the characters look in 3d, like guilty gear has done.

They said they will never go the Cel shading way since the KoF series was never an anime like game but it tends more to have a realistic approach

@@bassram3337 honestly I would like to see how they would do if they ever went the BlazBlue route, basically having really detailed 3d backgrounds with modernized 2.5d pixel sprites. Blazblue Central Fiction is one of the most beautiful fighting games that I’ve recently played, and it mends both styles pretty well; even when compared to GG imo.

Ok you did kof xv dirty with this vid

Shermie is top-tier

Their 2D sprites, even the old ones look so much better. Kof 25 just looks like a shined up version of 14. Bring back 13 sprites. With that being said, would love to see Shermie and Chris in 13's art style

SNK aways gave a lot of attention to details in his pixel art work. Just look they clothes!

Say whatever you want, doesnt matter what enhanced 3D animation, but nothing can beat kim kap hwan 2D pants animation

Loved how they still put their original formation on the latest game

So far, only SNK did the 3D right. XV moves and flows almost as perfectly as sprites do. I can't put my finger on it, but something about SF IV and V's movement feels off. This game did it almost completely perfectly.

Only thing missing in kof15 is the energy and exaggerated movements. 1:08 look at king’s feet in the 2D one. It’s not just the dynamism of movement but the energetic tempo

Shermie and Leona ....Perfection🔥

I like 2D art and the old Robert and Athena more

They should've kept some muscles in Blue Mary's arms

Thank you for doing this!

I never forget such amay days 2d is forever

Suggestions: KoF 15 portraits vs the same chars in KoF 13 portraits. Or Evolution of KoF portrait art: KoF 99-15. Sugestões: retratos de KoF 15 vs os mesmos chars em retratos de KoF 13. Ou Evolução da arte de retrato de KoF: KoF 99-15.

Animation of the sprites is so much crisper.

SNK have always given us the classic Leona outfit as bonus since going 3D but never the classic Ralf and Clark ones.

Me alegra ver que en kof XV snk hiciera una buena representacion de sus personajes en 3d, ya se que todos amamos los sprites en 2d pero es necesario modernizarse en el apartado visual en especial para Snk que estuvo fuera del mercado mucho tiempo

Como todo PC Gamer, o RGB LED do Maxima deu um Upgrade Monstro, agora ele roda Cyberpunk 2077 sem reclamar de dor...rs Brincadeiras a parte, tem posição que consegui ver estranheza agora lado a lado como o Andy Bogard, que ta literalmente torcendo o quadril no 3D, no 2D a posição dele parece mais relaxada e funcional... Okay tambem que essa comparação foi do XV vs o 2002UM, mas alguns personagens deviam ser melhor comparados com o KOF Xlll como Mai e Leona... ...mas é só uma constatação, ok?

Acho que os sprites clássicos foram escolhidos só pra não ficar tão desigual e humilhante pra KoF 15

It would be great to see this vs KOF XIII Sprites comparison

2D sempre foi melhor, e sempre vai ser...olha o capricho até hoje e muito mais bonito...

terry's muscles are more obvious now

Looks like the girls stopped hitting the gym and gave their gym subscription to the guys.

amazing comparison, it would be cool if you do it with KOF XIII vs KOF XV comparison

Funny how some characters like Kula and Angel were much better animated in 2D.

I would have liked SNK to use the EX Blue Mary desing from Real Bout Special.

Ramon beat the matches, and matches the beat ;)
