Quote:Drawn 2d art, polyagonal art, sprites-in-3d art, etc... that's what I mean there...
... There can be 3D games that have more similar art to some 2D games than some 2D games to some 2D games. The technology does not change the art, it only changes how you go about making it and the amount of freedom you have.

Well the computer doesn't see anything, so that's just a pointless thing to say.
Quote:It's just '2d platformer made with polygons', really... if there is no third dimension in gameplay it shouldn't really be getting the label, I think... unless, of course, you're talking about the graphical style the game uses.

You're really dense, did you know that? How many examples do I have to give? The RPG one should have been enough.
