From my own standpoint, I really do think the graphic quality of a fangame is important. I've been working with sprites and graphics for fangames for quite a long time now, and I feel like the higher quality the work of the sprites and overall graphics, the smoother the game will look, not to mention that it feels much more like a good amount of effort has been put into making the game look nice. Of course, if people have only recently started spriting I can't really expect them to pump out amazing work either if they have no experience whatsoever so I'll cut slack for those people, but if the graphics look as if they were half-assed and I know that the person who made them can do a lot better than they've put out, I'd honestly feel like it's a bit disappointing, mainly because it could add so much more to the atmosphere of the game if the graphics were done nicely, even if it's very simplistic and depends on the generation the graphics are from. Sure, they may not add much to a story itself, but it most definitely helps with the look and feel of the game, and more importantly setting an atmosphere. If you're going for i.e. a ruined town and the graphics look all sloppy and messy, you usually get the impression of "Okay... I get what they were trying to do here, but...", while on the other hand, if you create and use convincing graphics, it's usually much easier to convey a concept or idea to the player, and therefore could also be a tool to explain things that aren't as easy to explain with text only. So... I myself consider good graphics as my viewpoint as an artist, but from a more objective standpoint it honestly depends on if you're using graphics to create a certain atmosphere for a game, or if they do not add much to the atmosphere of a game (so a more simplistic game that is more oriented towards story than looks or isn't going for a balance between the two). It just really, really depends on how much influence the graphics are supposed to have.

Welcome to Reborn, Akashi! Hope your stay is a good one :] Make sure to check out the community rules on the right so you know what to do and what not to do, and you should be set! Hope to see you around!

please listen to the entire thing oh my god it gets so legit

I GOT A HAIRCUT Before: After

This is correct. Please refrain from making separate topics for each leader if it's only going to be puns and no real discussing about the leaders themselves, it'll clog up the forum. If you really want to make puns like that, it's better to do so in the main discussion thread, or in the wasteland. Thank you!

I HEAR MADOKA SO I CAME RUNNING BECAUSE IT'S A GOOD SHOW and you should watch it tbh Also welcome to Reborn, Alextron! Make sure to check the community rules and guidelines on the left, after that you should be set! Hope you enjoy your stay here :] ...But if we're talking anime recommendations, i would recommend Haikyuu!!. It's a sports anime but it's much better than I originally thought it would be and it has great animation too, so it wouldn't hurt to check that one out too :0 Also gurenn lagann is also very good, and I think if you like that you'd also probably like Kill la Kill, since the same people are behind those two series. Other good series are Nichijou, Panty and Stocking and Erased as well, so you should check those out too if you got time!!

Happy birthday, Comet! I don't know what's going on or what happened that caused you to leave, but I still think about you sometimes and hope you're fine. We miss you and hope to see you around again sometime, and I don't even know if you'll ever read it, but I still consider you to be a good friend and I really hope you're doing okay :c If you ever decide to come back, do say hi okay? ;w; If you do read this I hope you'll have a great day!

Happy birthday Hushie! We don't talk that often although we probably should since you're a pretty great person :V Have a nice day yo!

Happy birthday, DW! Hope you have a great day :]
