4 random examples and the most recent is from 20 years ago? This is weaksauce OP.

If you think 4 images is not enough, it's because you lack pattern recognition to instantly related those 2 styles with the 90's and 00's.

Like the other guy said, if you had focused on remakes and otherwise tried to make better 1 to 1 comparisons, this would be more than "Old Man yells at 20 year old visual novel."

Kanon came for Steam, with the exact same graphics, in 2024.

Oh wow, two games made by the same company with the same artists a few years apart have a similar art style. What a shocking revelation! Tell us more wise sage! /s

Or you could place a timeline of games in the same series on a timeline and do one to one comparisons of sprites or CGs. Or at least games made by the same company.

If you think a game that came out in 2004 is in anyway reflective of the current state of the industry, you're more demented than Biden.

Furthermore, you're criticizing games that are classics. Games that are old and yet fondly remembered as influential to the medium as a whole in spite of their derpy art style. At this point, they've stood the test of time. Everyone knows they look a little dumb, but the hold up, and are charming because of it. Furthermore, the art style is so distant from the current state of the industry that you may as well be complaining about how all the kids are int disco these days.

You are not saying anything insightful or meaningful. You're either retarded, or have such a skewed perspective of time that I expect you to start complaining about how you can't smoke on airplanes anymore next.

Take me to your time machine so we can go back to 2005.
