shout-out to Just Cause 3 for being colorful. On an HDR display it’s BEAUTIFUL. Also exploding bad guys is fun af
I must point out though ITS SO FUN
yeah, but that’s a whole generation after this. most games were colorful by then. especially once hdr started to come around.
games like crysis 3 and far cry 4 really helped break the trend.
I’d say crysis is almost the exact inflection point. look at it, it still has a lot of that brown aesthetic, but it’s colorful and has bright skies and giant lens flairs. the lens flairs especially became part of the norm moving forward.
It’s SO CHAOTIC AND I LOVE IT

Rainbow barf all day everyday
