The graphics aged gracefully, but I wouldn't call them beautiful. I would definitely say the lighting is beautifully done tho. That's what really completes the atmosphere imo.
personally, im a huge fan of ps1 graphics so this may be unique to me and others like me. its certainly beautiful to me haha
Oh no I get that. It really just depends on the game for me. Parasite Eve 2 is one of the prettiest games ever to me. There is something special about that era and the level of detail they were able to paint with the limited graphics.
Also realizing there's the missing ingredient of a CRT screen, which is what brings it all together. Might change my tune seeing Silent Hill on a proper screen again.
I feel you. Warcraft 3's original graphics will always have a special place even if they are trash by today's standards.
I think nostalgia plays a big part.
