In 2025, 3D is ubiquitous and AI is accelerated, but the value is not in polygons, but in whether it guides the player. The talk is the harsh truth of production: "light as UI", readable silhouette, contrast and temperature, camera and blocking that guide without prompts. I will explain how to consolidate this into processes - taste-gates, mini-style guides, readability tests - so that the team consistently makes not just beautiful, but useful for the game.
