Why does is it look so much worse now under UE4? The character models are downsyndrome-tier at this point.
>Unreal
That's your answer
I dunno, bad developers
It could look like the left with some changes
Now play the XV demo.
We waited almost a decade for jaggies.

Because UE4 is designed for photorealism. KH is a game about cartoons.
Why did they even change engines?
Was the Luminous engine badly programmed or something?
>>320680898
Its always looked like shit with bad art design. All those belts and zippers are sickening. I will never understand why people care so much about this franchise.
>>320681401
They had rendering problems and all the people who know Luminous are on XV. KH3 would only slow development on XV if it stayed on Luminous. UE4 allows very easy collaboration with other studios, like FF7R is doing, because its an industry standard engine
>>320680898
FF7 looks pretty ok do I'm just going to assume the Osaka team's incompetence is at fault here.
The game would take 10 years to come out if it was Luminous engine,
>FXAA
THOSE GRAFIX ARE UNREAL
>>320681063
didn't give guilty gear any trouble. Maybe Square is just incompetent?
>>320680898
Are you fuckin retarded??? This is the most beautiful looking game ive ever seen. And its smooth as fuck. Square enix is breaking new boundries man!
>>320681401
They migrated all the Luminous Engine devs into the FFXV team to get XV done as fast as possible, and since KH3 had barely started they restarted KH3 on UE4 since that was also a DX11 engine like Luminous but an industry standard one they could use and easily learn
>>320682673
It did?
Xtrud looks horrible.

XV demo was unoptimized old build from 2014 running Luminous 1.4
Everything we've seen for XV since August 2015 has been 1080p at 30FPS at Luminous 1.5
The final XV will be on Luminous 2.0
Also XV has only been on Luminous since July 2013, prior to that XV was running on a heavily modified Crystal Tools engine they dubbed Ebony Engine
It's because like most games they release lately SE is outsourcing a lot of the work on this to keep costs down.
>>320680898
the one on the left is CG retard
>>320680898
The graphics are no longer stylized and cartoony with prebaked lighting. It's also worth noting though that those 2 screens are not in the same conditions.

No it isn't, it was running in engine on Luminous, you could even see the aliasing proving it
>>320684365
Looks pretty good for a PS3 game
>>320681392
No anon, they devs just suck balls. Unreal 3 was used to make Guilty Gear Xrd and it looks fucking awesome.
I wonder how 7R would've looked with Luminious.
>>320684783
And this is a PS2 game.
>>320686994
GG Xrd looks great though.
Of course, I'm not going to say it looks better than previous GGs or their sprite work but holy shit if Xrd doesnt look great

Why can't they wait in order to use the luminous engine?
Another fucking decade of wait or what?
>>320680898
Unreal character models very frequently have this plastic model look to them. Is this due to the Unreal Engine or incompetent devs? Seriously, the new KH models look like they're from Nier or something
>>320687509
Originally the plan was for KH3 to start full development after XV is done, while they had Luminous devs spread out between XV and KH3
But doing that would not only slow down XV dev speed but also would result in KH3 starting way later than they wanted
So XV would have been a 2017 release at that rate and KH3 would not have started full development until that time if they still were doing it that way
They didn't want to wait that long, because if they did that then KH3 wouldn't be out until 2019 at earliest
So they moved all Luminous devs to XV around July 2013 to get that done at the fastest it possibly could be where it will be released in 2016, hinted to be a Summer 2016 release, while restarting KH3 from the ground up on UE4 in 2014 and that will most likely be a 2017 release, judging by 2.8 being 2016 release

Gotta have that down-syndrome representation so /v/ can relate to it.
