    Enough detail to clearly know what it’s supposed to be. Not enough power to clutter things up and make visuals too busy. Stylization to work around the limitations.

    Art tends to shine around limitations.

    And just surreal, dreamlike enough to stoke the imagination.


    I would kill for a youtube channel that just did nature documentary style panning shots over game scenery from this era with some appropriate music. Like how some games had level preview flybys, but slower.

      This isn’t exactly what you are talking about but there is the “unremarkable and odd places in X Game” series by Any Austin. You could maybe watch with the audio turned off to remove commentator. https://youtube.com/watch?v=gGDyB8t1zgE

      There is also a somewhat new but highly prolific YouTube channel that posts videos of characters going on runs through their game worlds depopulated of monsters: https://youtu.be/kmWMgAnPrE0
