Do you guys think with the current tech a video game the size of liberty city except with all buildings being capable of being entered is possible?

Probability powers are pretty based

Drummer here. If a stick comes out of your hand it feels like that heavy crash for whoever it hits I knocked the recent memory out a guitarist like that by accident.

I don't think it would run very well is the issue. That's a lot of interior space to render and if you're planning on doing it without a loading screen per building they're either going to be really empty, full and look like ass, or full and unplayable
>>
>>321372726
Should qualify, liberty city from gta 3

Also, merry Christmas dudes
>>
>>321372726
assuming we're talking about a triple A game with like Witcher 3 or Battlefront graphical fidelity

a game that size would probably be a horrendous task for not-1% PCs and consoles would probably have to have huge graphical downgrades
>>
>>321374295
Let's say given gta 3 tier graphics
>>
whoever made this image clearly just got bored and gave up at the piano and basically there's no reason not to pick it if you were going for bass anyway
>>
>>321374401
with those graphics at 1080p, nowadays you could probably do a slightly larger city where you could enter all the buildings
>>
slap bass sounds like the most fun

can I fuck the singer girl though
>>
>>321374791
If that's the case I don't see why they don't do it

Fuck good graphics, get some good gameplay and slap it on an environment and you have the game gta5 wishes it could be

>>321375227
Casuals just want graphics

lead guitar for fucking plasma powers and shredding

Think about all the wasted space, and all the necessary limitations. If there is an apartment building, like in the vain of silent Hill 2, imagine having to design each individual room, and even then in real life you don't just walk into every possible room. Since most people would play that way, there's a lot of wasted effort in something only a really really small minority will bother to experience.
>>
which one gives me more gains?
>>
>>321375912
Why not just use a procedurally generated system where you have a few pre selected factors for each type of building (color, aesthetic, furniture placement and design) and then have each factor be randomized for each building
>>
>>321376113
Procedural generation fucking sucks ans would be pointless
>>
>>321376340
Well if you have enough factors that get randomized you could potentially have no repeat rooms
>>
>>321372726
Totally Violin. The cutest instrument. I want to fuck a violin
>>
>>321376463
No repeat rooms but greatly re used assets. Imagine seeing a couch, then the same couch in different colors in other rooms. How many couches is the development team expected to create even.

I would love to see ot, in fact it's kinds of a dream of mine, but it's very unlikely that any dev will pull it off. If no man's sky ends up looking good I'll be interected in seeing some more dense procedural generation.
>>
>>321377141
Well you could make 5 or 6 different kinds of couches and add in some color swaps and that could be at least not immersion breaking
>>
>>321372726
drums
probably because I watched whiplash recently


and absolutely, that wouldn't be a problem, so long as there wasn't procedural destruction or a lot of individual objects to keep track of

It can be. Rockstar in particular is really good with cutting corners in their scenary. But why would you?

Serious question. What would you even do with that many enterable buildings? Just let you go in with nothing there? Populate some with equipment? Hide the plans to the death star?

Open world walks a fine line between letting you go where you want, and making sure the locations are expansive, but still focused enough to remember a fair amount of those locations, not drive the dev team to a workplace shooting, and keep you interested in looking for more.

I can't think of anything more boring than a large city full of enterable buildings that I keep finding fucking nothing inside of.
>>
>>321372726
Can it? Yes, you DON'T have to load the entire city+ interiors at once, but it is prohibitively expensive. Best we can do right now is procedurally generated locations + a few choice areas for missions. See the true crime series for example; random missions pop up in random buildings, and once you are inside the building(after a small loading screen) you are transported into one of various repeating maps tailored specifically for that mission. So you could respond a call for a domestic fight in central park or another rich area and be transported to map_d3_rich_white_2 for example.

Keyboard Piano me my good man. It will be like, Rachmaninoff goes Touhou.
>>
>>321375912
There should be at least random messages why you can't go into some door. No "The lock is broken" repeated ad nauseam shit.

>>321376340
Not for a sandbox based around ambushes and shit. Just gotta have a good AI or deathmatch multiplayer.

Cola.
Time control is obviously OP with root beer, but at its peak it can only control 6 hours. Normally, people must sleep 8 hours a night.
With cola, you get all 8 of those hours every time and, presumably, you still need to sleep 8 hours with the time power.

All that extra time to exercise, study, work, and not oversleep.
>>
>>321377597
It's pretty boring, it's shit Beethoven composed for no talent ladies in waiting to show off and pretend they are virtuosos.

Don't you have coffee old man? Root Beer is so grossly overpowered compared to all other options, unless you get super time cancer or something then it just makes it crawling-in-my-skin tier. So Ramune I guess for shits and giggles.

>>321374768
Thing is when I get the benefits of the guitar "beeing really cool" how can I be plain?

Singing 100%. I want to be able to talk like a decent fucking human being.

You could literally achieve anything as long as you oversee the project.
