Choosing Between 2D and 3D Characters for Indie Games

[legardaas]

Honestly, it comes down to your team and your goals. If you have skilled 2D artists but limited 3D experience, 2D can save a ton of time and still look amazing. On the other hand, if you want to do dynamic camera angles, cinematic cutscenes, or more complex animations, 3D is often worth the investment. Also, consider the style of the game itself, cartoony, pixel-art, or highly stylized games usually thrive in 2D.
