The art is well done but the style is still absolute ass compared to the first game's fairly minimal style.

I think it's cool, and I really admire that they said fuck it and went for a completely different style.
This art style contains absolutely nothing I liked about Nidhogg 1 and actively turns me off from it. They ruined something really unique for ugly muppets.
The art style is only half of the problem, the animations look awful too.

I was counting the animations as part of of the style but yeah it just looks like a flash game now. Really garbage compared to the really satisfying and appealing animation of Nidhogg 1.
Awfully brave of them to change the style so drastically. I think I'll be able to get used to it after playing a bit.
Never got attached to the first one, so I think this one's.... okay-ish?
Maybe that's their idea, to target those who looked past the first game.
I played it at E3 and you really don't notice the characters' appearances while you're playing. My biggest issue was the random weapon every time you spawn.
mechanically, they added some cool stuff, animation and style wise it's just too fucking soft and wiggly. It doesn't even have 'cute stuff in a gorey setting' charm, it's just kinda off and unfitting of the crunchy fast paced muted pixel art from before

They said that you can customize the order they come out in in the video
Yeah still not feeling the new art style at all. The environments are nice, but the characters just look dopey and don't fit at all IMO. Still looks fun as fuck and I'll probably get it when it comes out though.
Man, it looks a little worse than last time they showed it off, the minimal style worked well for visibility, hopefully someone mods the new moves into the original. The visual don't match, anywhere else they would be nice however. Just an afterthought
