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.

All rules of the parent instance apply. That is, sopuli.xyz
Include the name of the game your post is associated with in the post title.
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.
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.
No generative AI art.

Just bought the game. The OST isn't that bad as the toxic r/needforspeed redditors say.

I really, really like the cartoon effects. They are so fun.

Literally couldn't agree more. I desperately wanted to for NFS to be distinctive from the other series and they done it really well with the comic book / anime aesthetics, and it gives life to the car for me. Whenever for example you crash, the car will react with a certain emoji, displaying sadness. It was sad to see that so much people hate this feature. Hope Criterion stays with this design.
