It’s great and all (it really is), but the target audience was just presented factorio 2.0 (and space age), so we’re busy for a few months.

Sorry didn’t know that. I’m not interested in Factorio because imo it looks terrible.

He just told you: “it looks terrible.” And he’s not wrong; Factorio’s art really does kinda suck.

I don’t think it necessarily sucks. It’s just old and I’m not a fan of it.

It looks like the “good enough” placeholder art devs put in before they get around to hiring an actual artist.

Toot

there’s no style to it

I mean, it depends on how you are defining “style”, but, to avoid being pedantic, I actually think that it does have a style, and a very recognizable and unique style at that. It has a very maximalist, industrial, gritty look to it that I love. Everything is so hyper-detailed in model design, texture, and animation. It all fits a very specific aesthetic. It’s completely fine if that aesthetic is not to your taste, but I think it’s disingenuous to say that it has no style at all.

This ia exactly on point. I have never played Factorio but can recognize it from any screenshot from its style.
