Photorealism is the go-to look for artists and modelers who have no sense of aesthetics and/or no artistic ability. This doesn't mean that it can't be done well, but most of the time it looks like generic/soulless shit.

DMC4 Vergil is just as ugly as DMC5's, just in a different way.

Because realism is shit.

Yes.

You just described exactly how I felt about New World. Great graphics, but overall just feels incredibly soulless due to lack of aesthetics and art direction.

It infuriates me so hard since top looks accurately like what Eli would grow into. Bottom, in contrast, looks like Prince Charming from Shrek.

dante and vergil being old ugly bastards now works for me

left is photorealism with worse graphics
do zoomers really?

it makes no sense since they're half demons and their father lived for thousands of years

That's vergil's worst model on the left though.

Fat Vergil is better

Retard.

Don't they have regeneration too? Their cells shouldn't be aging in the same way humans do at all or it should be 1/10 of what a humans age at.

Exactly

Kojima dilated too much on the westoid pill.

This. 3 Vergil is the best.

Everything eventually decays
