I continued to work on this and while clouds and terrain got better I couldn't get the infinite abyss effect I wanted. 🐸🤷

Thats true yeah. I think that even with more pressure Doug wouldn't have had it in him. I'm worried that I don't either I guess.

Frankly speaking it's because he's lazy lol. He's using adobe's stock photo ai to make backgrounds so he can spend less time working on them. Same reason his art has never improved and he's still using the same sprites from over a decade ago. Zun only really cares about the music and spell cards.

Yeah people are being way too binary about this. Zun is getting lazy about backgrounds but there's no ethical problem here. Touhou has been stagnant for a while, I think he just needs some help with the games.

Yeah this is my take too. It's disappointing because the generations are kinda ugly but adobe's ai is only trained on their own stock photos so there's no ethical issues here.
A lot of people aren't thinking critically about this.

Yeah that's how I feel about it too. The generations don't look very good but there's no ethical issues here.

Maybe the black area should outline the sundog too? 🐸🤔

Yeah I noticed that too. It also makes getting power items that much more difficult at the start of the game, giving the first stage a desperate feeling it really shouldn't have imo.

Even if it's bad on purpose it still sucks. This isn't a take down post or whatever, I'm just sad to see how little has improved (nevermind Zun's character art). Maybe Zun should ask for help with the next game so he can focus on the task he's good at and we'll better visuals too idk. /end

If you compare Touhou 20's backgrounds to those of Riverbed Soul Saver and Infinite Blade Pavilion (fangames from 2014 and 2019) I see an obvious deficit.
I'll try to be nice and mention I though the pictured trees and stars looked alright, but that pyramid really sucks. 3/4

I've been playing the th20 demo and it's not a bad game but the visuals are underwhelming, even a little disappointing. Haven't those fairies been around since like mountain of faith? And still no new enemy types? The backgrounds are nothing special too. I loved the animated boss sprites in 19. 2/4

Battletech and Garlands are fully compatible in my mind!
