Video Game Art

Video games are not mere time killers. They are albums of sound, aesthetics, animation and narrative.

This community is in appreciation of that. Screenshots, fanart, animations, gameplay clips. It is all welcome here.

The one common thread should be an eye for the aesthetic. This is not a place to discuss mechanics or stats, but to show off simply the artistic, expressed through the video game medium.

  1. All rules of the parent instance apply. That is, sopuli.xyz
  2. Include the name of the game your post is associated with in the post title.
  3. If your post is fanart, include a link to the artist in post body, if you can. You may also ping @[email protected] to have it attempt to find the source for you, and provide it in a comment.
  4. MARK ANY TEXT SPOILERS, as for art, do not post content that outright spoils key moments of a games narrative. Content that can only be understood with the context of having played the game, is ok.
  5. No generative AI art.

Too much Japanese for a "European" city

Well this is taken outside of Japantown, looking into the Arasaka (Japanese) business district.

Night City is on the west coast of North America. The world in cyberpunk is heavily controlled by global influences, of which the Japanese Arasaka is arguably the largest.

Never played the game, but I thought it was in Spain for some reason.

The society in the game uses a global currency called "euro-dollars". I'm not sure the concept of countries is relevant in the future depicted by the game. The wars and politics are about corporations, not governments.
