Philosophy Of Sprite Creation

[BobbyLala]

If the final looks nothing like the original, it's lost it's purpose.

The critique here is not about destroying the soul of art, it's about improving technical skill. Having ideas is the place to start but if you can't draw them decently, isn't that depressing?
If people improve their understanding of form, colour theory etc. surely they can convey the meaning of their art better.

i have no idea what you're talking about with the goombas and whatnot though. that's not philosophy.
