Can Witcher 3 compete with STALKER? Or is there another game, maybe even a console game, with good lighting (or even better, lightning) effects?

Mad Max

Hey, not too bad actually - although nothing was casting any shadows, it's still a nice effect.

Maybe I'll give it another try

why

Witcher 3 has good environments, but it varies a lot. Some better than the others. Stalker is consistent in its mood and environments.
>>
>>333924794
To add further insult, the last stalker game came out in 2009

(though since it was a peecee exclusive, that pegs it around 2020 in console-years)

mgsv has pretty good lighting

That moment where the storm rolls in is cool as fuck. Is Mad Max worth picking up?

on sale sure, wait for summer
cars are fun, batman parts sort of okayish
>>
>>333925840
It's a lot of fun and definitely worth picking up. Driving around the wasteland is great. Everything outside of the car is okay, but not very special. I don't think I'd pay full price for it, unless you're just a really big Mad Max fan, so wait for it to go on sale again.
>>
>>333922070
god, that reminds me how bad sound was in that game
metro in comparison is godly

Speaking of Metro, it is better in every graphical way.

One of the reasons this demo was so damn spooky was because of the lighting. Especially the refrigerator and when you can see the ghost bitche's shadow twitching behind you if you have the right lighting angle when you're possessed.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zRftQ6HYy9o

Just watching that gives me PTSD and I played that demo several times.

metro 2033 and last light has some great moments with their lighting

on a side note, is picking up the redux version for both games worth it? its on sale at my local target
>>
Ayylien: Isolation has some pretty good lightning

Is this sarcasm
>>
>>333926494
Both Metros are great, but the original 2033 is much better than the Redux. Same with Last Light - they just take away from the mood with all the color grading and overbloom.
>>
>>333926630
yeah the foliage doesn't have shadows on my medium settings

but you should try not being blind and noticing the cliff in the back with all those shadows

All Reduxes and definitive editions are shit. I can't think of a single one that actually made the game any better and wasn't just a shit re-release to mark the game's price back up by $10
>>
>>333926685
Are you kidding, 2033 is the one with the brown tint.
In Redux and LL there are actual colors to look at.
>>
>>333926187
Metro had some wonky textures but it did have beautiful lighting. First time I ever stopped and just admired a random lantern.
>>

>Implying

I hope you don't like good lighting because where we're going it doesn't exist.

Let me know if I have to keep posting more
>>
>>333927067
If I was at home I could post my own shots where Redux does look better than 2033 in places. But whatever.

Also, 2033 had an awful brown tint all over it. It was really obnoxious.
>>
>>333927150
It might look better in a few odd places, but the outside areas are ruined by the Reduxes. The one shown here is one of the less badly butchered ones...

GTA V

OP is a faggot.
Last year's Wolfenstein had some pretty impressive lighting in some places.
>>
>>333927150
I can keep posting more as well that shows how badly the dynamic lighting was stripped from the game, you cocksucking faggot. I weep for anyone whose only experience with 2033 is the godawful Redux, since they removed the original from Steam.

https://youtu.be/bWe9L3Wp0JY?t=4m43s

Notice the complete lack of dynamic shadows on enemies and NPCs in the Redux.
>>
>>333925840
If you can handle all the traditional sandbox elements. It's brilliantly mundane, it does everything well, but it plays it safe.
I'd suggest waiting for a sale.
>>
>>333927664
That wasn't really branded as a REDUX or DEFINITIVE EDITION though. It was just ported to next gen consoles and done fucking well. Although i guess you could put it in that category and it'd be the only exception.

Goddamn, i'm not sure if its because i'm playing clear sky but all the Russian guns just go crazy when I fire them, even with recoil upgrades, at this point I just use nato guns bar the mosin-nagant.

Short bursts and higher stability weapons at close range, without moving (I got lucky with the bloodsucker, could have one-shotted me but he must have caught couple rounds to the face)
