How close is the artbook to the final game? I love artbooks and fromsoftware games but most of their art makes it fully into the game so there is hardly any differences between the concept art and final version. The Baldurs gate art book is incredible for that reason. A lot of the art is early in development and a lot of it changed significantly.

Depends on the chapter. Some stuff is clearly final. Like there isn’t any art of Geralt or Ciri that isn’t close to how they actually look in the game.

It’s a free pdf download, if you have the game on GOG.

Video Game Art

Create post

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 @saucechan@ani.social 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.
