I love the concept of Minecraft and that it promotes imagination instead of being a FPS. But what the hell is with its resolution and pixelation? I am sure today’s computers can handle better graphics, so why does it have to look like a game from the 90s?
In: Technology
Minecraft looks nothing like a game for the C64.
This sort of graphics would not have been possible on a C64. They actually require quite a bit of computing power to make work.
The original developer made a stylistic choice about how the game should look. The choice of making everything out of blocks does not mean that the graphics have a low resolution.
If you don’t like the texture of the blocks there are a million of skins that make them look differently.
The choice of style has nothing to do with technological capabilities and only looks retro and like from the 90s if you didn’t actually live through them.
