The Witcher 3 Enemy Art Direction Might Be the WORST of the Generation

Reminds me of Draenei in Wow. Could be cousins.lol at TW3 fans trashing God of War designs
TW3 is literally one of my favorite games ever but it is not even close to GOW.

Literally not the case at all. I'd love to see an explanation as to why these designs are "uninspired". A very easy word to vaguely toss around.
Idk about you but I think these all look great. And there are so many more.
Edit: Also, can we ban phrases like "worst of the generation" - they are rarely used in a way that isn't hyperbolic.
Maybe OP is missing some colorful troll-like enemies to bring in some variety.
I could not disagree more. The enemy designs were amazingly grotesque. They were creepy, ugly, and in some cases genuinely frightening if they surprised you.
On what world do all of those look the same?
OP
OP
The examples posted all shared the same drab color palette - the first and last one looked like derivatives of eachother too
I find it quite original to have one of the biggest monsters in the game looking like that.
Indeed. Thousands of games in the entire generation and OP chose The Witcher 3.
I guess it's nice to live in such a small bubble though.
Sorry but having a similar color doesn't mean they look the same.

The *insert aspect of game/show/movie here* of *insert name of game/show/movie here* is not up to my liking therefore it literally killed my dog.
I'm obviously exaggerating, but damn if it doesn't feel like that on here sometimes lol
I don't see anything special here.lol at TW3 fans trashing God of War designs

I also do. To have one of the best villains be so unassuming you simply forget you meet him at the very start of the base game is great. Looks like a generic NPC, which is actually really original in a way.
I agree, the enemy art direction is the worst of the generation. CDPR can stand to learn something from 'Life of Black Tiger', truly a masterclass in enemy design that outshines The Witcher 3 on all fronts.
look at these elephants

crikey even a crocodile

I'm not sure it is. If I go out of my way to create something that's ugly, being ugly isn't a bad thing as long as its consistent with the world it's being put in.
100% disagree. As a Eastern European i find their Eastern European designs to be refreshing and something very unusual for what is typically found in AAA games. Not everything has to have Western European and/or Asian design. Im all for more cultural styles to be represented even if some people find it "ugly". I frankly adore seeing Eastern European monsters come to life
I personally don't find these super inventive. It's just some armoured guys, like the Wild Hunt, which is just isn't special imo.lol at TW3 fans trashing God of War designs

Not saying that either is badly designed, but it's a case of "been there done that".
Looks like a black metal band cosplay.lol at TW3 fans trashing God of War designs
