Why are FROM map designers so lazy?
>props clipping
>props floating
>texture tiling
>poor LODs for unreachable areas

From are fucking terrible at making forests, I can't think of a single one in their previous games that looks even remotely decent.
>>334363150
I think the area actually looks quite nice, but texture tiling on ground texture is just horrible. That's some Oblivion/DS2 grade shit.
>>334363331
That and the colors are all over the place, lush and green-ish trees with the ground full of red leaves, some other areas have patches of grass but the forest has none.
They always feel like terrain with some props thrown at random.

Bloodborne forest looks pretty good

It's 2016 anon

The weapon, armor and shield clipping is killing me. I get that shit like hair and cloth is difficult, but getting a solid piece of metal to not clip through another piece of metal IN THEIR DEFAULT POSITIONS shouldn't be that difficult.
From is just lazy and complacent as fuck in many regards.

from isn't a AAA dev, they're AA
>>334368553
>from isn't a AAA dev, they're AA
Are you fucking kidding me? They've got over 200 employees and a multi-million dollar franchise that includes more than 5 games by now. Wake up you fucking drone.
>>334368553
>FROM
>AA
They're B dev with one series that made it big.
A-team is working on new franchise.
B-team worked this game you fagotest bullshitter in the world niggas
The entire time my character's legs are clippin on the floor lmao.
Also you can hit many enemies who are behind doors and some enemies will throw themselves into pits while trying to chase you it's jist embarasing.
Still a fun game tho.
some areas look incredibly ugly for some reason, but most look fine. Graphics aside for a second, how the fuck do I turn off the triple crossbow in smoldering lake? I've been looking around for ages but can't find shit

I can't believe they used the same lighting of the forest of the fallen giants for this area, they never fucking learn, miyazaki or not.

GRORIUS NIPPON NO WRONG LEAVE YOU FAGGOTS WESTABOOS REEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE
>>334361556
I noticed that in Bloodborne there's unfinished textures, models fucking up, textures being sized wrong, etc
>>334370504
>same lighting
>implying there's actual lighting in DS2
LMAO
>>334371015
>patched and unpatched versions have same props floating above ground, textures flipping out, faulty LODs

Why are From so lazy
>>334361556
Because their comfort zone was making low-budget niche games with simple graphics, which worked in DeS and DaS and everything before them.
But now that Dark Souls is a big name they're expected to compete with games with much bigger budgets and higher fidelity. Their answer is to just clutter the fuck out of the environments even if stuff clips or has missing textures. Probably also the reason why BB and DaS3 have such aggressive pop-in. Their engine isn't built to handle this many props onscreen.
>>334371550
>which worked in DaS
Everything after Sen's Fortress would like a word with you.
>>334371646
What? Those areas weren't cluttered like BB and DaS3. Izalith obviously had some missing textures and clipping issues and too much bloom, but other than that they were some of the best-looking areas in the game.
>>334371646
>Le unfinished product meme
>>334371887
It's obvious that all these problems come from time constraints, the problem is that they never bother to fix all that shit after release.
>>334371867
Anor Londo is just empty corridors with plain textures and rooms with barely anything in them.
>>334361556
Whhy Japanase devs doesn't like premade graphics engine, imagine Dark Soul 3 running on cry engine or unreal
>>334372129
Because in-house engine are always better because they're developed with all the features you want.
Cringine is unoptimized trash.
UE4 seems less feature-complete than Unity.
>>334365917
Is this a new meme? We take the currently most visually impressive game and say "it's 2016" like every game should be able to look like it? You would need 3 PCs to run a Dark Souls that looks like Battlefront.
