I understand that there are great things about these voxel games, but I just can't get past the graphics. I've always thought they looked terrible. Just terrible... A friend of mine has been trying to get me to try it out for years now. He always says he knows I'd be into it if I just gave it an honest chance. He's probably right, but I just don't like the look of it.

What seems strange to me is that I actually really like pixel graphics in games. I think it only looks good in 2D games such as platformers though. Here's some examples of a few games that I have that are pixel based:

-Finding Teddy 2 http://store.steampowered.com/app/341020/

-Insanity's Blade http://store.steampowered.com/app/334190/

-Out There Somewhere http://store.steampowered.com/app/263980/

-Volgarr the Viking http://store.steampowered.com/app/247240/

Here's a few examples of voxel based games too, just for reference:

-Stonehearth http://store.steampowered.com/app/253250/

-From the Depths http://store.steampowered.com/app/268650/

-Minecraft https://minecraft.net/

    Stonehearth actually looks pretty cute and interesting IMHO. Too bad it's still in Early Access.

      It's probably a good strategy game. What's wrong with it being in early access? Are you waiting to get it?

    It's not supposed to be about the graphics.

      Yeah, I know. I kind of mentioned that in my post. That is just what I don't like about it though. I can't get past it.
