Oh I get that. I haven’t done AAA gaming in a hundred years, but I think perhaps if everything is drab it might be to counter the hyper-saturation that has taken over gaming for quite some time. I am not sure though. I know that one of the Monster Hunters was created with the intention of appealing to a Western audience. Making things look rather “grown” and I think that this game for the tiny bit I saw is a further extension of this. I can’t say a thing about gameplay, but I think perhaps things are so disjointed because of this. Ultimately though, I am not an “active” gamer or in the community. I often wonder “what do people want nowadays!?” if everything is getting review bombed out the gate. I mean clearly people are mad, but I am not sure what could counter that.
I was wondering this very thing. As some fossils were preserved whole, as others were not. I believe though, the whole ones, or even the ones that captured large contiguous chunks of tail could disprove this. Not sure, just was having a guess.
