What game has the best graphics THIS-GEN i.e. no fuckin' crysis or modded pc bullshit.
thanks for posting if you follow the rules
if you didn't follow the rules, you are a massive faggot cunt and I hate you and hope your dog dies of cancer
>>343317386
Crysis OP.
>>343317870
Im still sad we have next to no good Crysis 1 mods
>>343318220
What are you talking about, there were some amazing mods back in the day. I put so many hours into them.
>>343317386
Battlefront or The Order. Uncharted 4 is close.
>>343318525
wat
name some, moddb only has shit thats unfinished
I do remember the immersion mod similiar to the FC2 one though
>>343318813
Not him but xigmatek mods were fantastic fun. I didn't get into any content mods because all I needed was to noclip with rapid fire implosion rockets.
Most fun I've had in an FPS.
>>343318659
Ryse, Rise of the Tomb Raider, and Quantum Break look better than The Order and Uncharted 4.
Xbox/PC graphics > PS4
>>343319792
Actually, no, those games look mediocre. Ryse is 3 years old, ROTR looks like a 360 game and Quantum Break is horribly inconsistent.
>>343319792
(you)
Witcher 3.
>>343320608
Lol. No. Witcher 3 looks like plastic, cartoony shit.
>>343320727
Literally the most natural looking game next to stalker.
>>343317386
>no fuckin' crysis or modded pc bullshit.
faaaag
>>343320842
Define "natural". Realistic?
>>343320727
Keep telling yourself that at night if it helps you sleep, kiddo.
>>343319792
I played all of them on PC and Ryse is the best looking one of the 3 and even that one has some really bad looking areas. Tomb Raider looks good, but not amazing and Quantum Break has great surface reflactions, but that's about it
The Order is pretty much photo realistic and Uncharted looks either really really good or just good.
Only judging graphics here
>>343321040
Is this supposed to be an impressive screenshot? GTA V is easily the best looking open world game.
>>343321130
You said characters were cartoony and plastic, I was showing a screenshot filled with characters that fit neither of your "criticisms".
>>343320395
>>343320513
>>343320754
>>343321056
He's right though, The Order only looks alright because of the excessive use of motion blur and letter boxes. Uncharted 4 looks inconsisent as fuck, looks good in one place, looks like a PS3 game in another.
>>343321298
uncharted 4
>>343320945
Yeah pretty much
>>343320395
>>343320513
>>343320754
>>343321056
The shitposting is real.
Quantum Break is literally the most graphically advanced game of this gen, ROTR is objectively better looking than Uncharted 4, and Ryse is top class in visuals.
The Order looks like garbage, it's just a filter simulator.
>>343321386
There he goes again
>>343321439
Well then no, you're objectively wrong.
>>343321491
The shitposting is real
My games look better than your, i can do this all day kiddo just like you
>>343321386
why does that say watch dogs 2? speaking of which, Based on the e3 demo, WD2 looks like it'll have a pretty graphically decent looking open world to explore.
>>343321523
Define objectively
>>343321509
>says Uncharted 4 looks very good or just good
>show picture where it looks fucking terrible
>lol there he goes again
>>343321056
>Ryse is the best looking one of the 3 and even that one has some really bad looking areas
Every single game released has some really bad looking areas.
>>343321650
because everyone was saying Uncharted looks super good before it came out just like they did with WD and then it turned out to be a mediocre looking game
>>343321668
Indisputable. Based on objective reality, rather than subjective opinion. The Witcher 3, factually, is not the most "realistic" looking game available.
>>343321787
U4 ended up looking beautiful though. Not even memeing, I kept having those wow moments while playing it.
>>343321784
Did Mirrors Edge?
>>343321650
WD2 looks almost exactly like GTAV, it's a very slight improvement over WD1.
>>343321917
In some areas it looked good, in others like in the screen I posted it looked terrible
>>343321871
This guy.
>>343321917
t. console player who has never had a good pc
>>343321491
>>343322150
Name one PC game that looks even remotely as good as Uncharted 4.
>>343321871
>>343322150
t. mustard memer
obviously it doesn't run like a pc game, but that doesn't stop it from looking good in many areas
>>343317386
Battlefront
>>343322221
Battlefront
>>343321871
Ah I see, shitposting.
Please give us an example of your "most realistic current gen game without mods."
I don't even understand what you mean about the characters looking cartoony. I'd they looked like Breath of the Wild characters I'd agree, but they don't.
>>343322470
Agreed, actually. I think that's the only one.
>>343317386
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jV-_7JbiqDs
>>343322529
Arma 3 as well
>>343322343
I think what he is saying is those "wow" moments you experience when seeing something graphically pleasing like an awesome sunset is nothing groundbreaking or new, and most have been watching in game sunsets and marveling at sites since Morrowind. Consoles finally caught up.
>>343321871
Ashk and he shall deliver.
The Order: 1886
>>343322817
>>343322494
So realistic right, with the oversaturated bullshit lighting and blurry featureless textures.
Cuphead
some good graphics in this thread
and it hasn't even derailed into hyperbole console war completely yet. lets see more graphics
>>343317386
Uncharted 4
Batman Arkham Knight
Until Dawn
are all really nice looking games.
That T-Rex tech demo from PS1
>>343322210
>low settings
>>343322221
>>343322343
t. they literally have never saw a graphically impressive game in motion until 2016, the year consoles finally achieved 2007 PC graphics
Witcher 3.
Game with the best graphics would be a fully modded out Skyrim.
Find me a better looking game.
>>343323334
>muh low settings
Nice delusions, show me a screenshot of that area with high settings
>>343318659
Not really. The order doesn't look good and isn't even technically impressive since it's look mainly comes from filters.
U4 is mostly prebaked stuff and still doesn't look that good because of out of control jaggies and a lot of low poly props.
The Vanishing of Ethan Carter all the way.
>>343323394
LOL'd
>>343323469
Lmao. Looks like shit compared to Battlefront.
>>343317870
first post best post
put the console shitters in their place with a 2007 game. fuck your rules, graphics are graphics mods or not
>>343323536
I know that you're memeing but please, lets pretend we're having an actual discussion.

Kek. Thanks for more ammo
>bloom
You can turn it off
>over saturation.
Never felt Velen was particularly saturated in color
>>343322985
How can one man be so but blasted by how natural the witcher 3 looks
>>343323334
so you admit that U4 looks impressive, and your assuming the people your responding to have only seen games on current gen consoles and have no access to anything else and are now using this as some insult?
>>343323064
more for u

>>343323430
>low settings
that anon is retarded, that's Ultra settings and I was posting that screen to actually show that the game looks good
>>343323667
I'm not. Battlefront looks more realistic.
>>343323726
R6 Siege also looks good.
>>343321491
lmao did you play the same quantum break I did
it looks like garbage. 1080p is upscaled 720p, literally back to 2005

Stop posting screenshots, you're fucking terrible at taking them.
>>343323881
Some maps look really nice but some are ugly as fuck
>>343323726
>>343323881
I'm forced to run the game at 1440p because there's unbearable input lag at any higher res.
What a shame.
>>343320727
Deluded sonygger detected.
>>343324118
Sure :^)
>>343324196
What? Witcher 3 looks better on PS4 than it does on PC.
>>343317386
>Which movie had the best CGI?
That goes to movies like Transformers, but we all know those movies are garbage.
Same applies here. Games that spend most of their time and effort looking nice typically have shitty gameplay and are bad games.
Games like Uncharted and Witcher might look nice but the gameplay is awful. These developers seem to be keen on the idea that visual fidelity and a "cinematic" presentation in which the player has no real control is what makes a game immersive and they're hilariously incorrect. Super Mario Bros. on NES is more immersive than Witcher 3.
>>343324103
>png
>still looks fucking awful
Yes it did. It looks worse than a 3 year old PS3 game.
>>343321298
Nice cast of shadows there sonyfriend.
>>343323952
Yes it is
>>343323854
No, not really.
The lighting in battlefront abuses bloom and god rays WAY too much, as well as having worse textures for the most part compared to EC (mainly because EC's textures are literally photorealistic since they were all primarily scanned from real life objects).
Also I hate the "Realism" == good grapics trend. I want some fucking styalization goddammit. If I wanted to look at a realistic landscape I'd go outside.Both Battlefront and EC are pretty good at this though.
>>343321491
>Quantum Break is literally the most graphically advanced game of this gen
top fucking kek
>>343320608
>>343320945
Witcher 3 is heavily stylized. It's got this really sharp filter look to it which is quite easy to notice on higher settings.
>>343324103
wtf this is the pic you use to defend U4. It looks like watch dogs 1
>>343324306
What's impressive about this >>343324103
>>343322062
Fourteen seconds of bad trees just bring the whole game down. Seriously Uncharted 4 is one of the best looking games out there. I have no bias one way or the other. I have an excellent PC, WiiU, PS4, and a now redundant, XBOXONE. While Rise of the Tomb Raider looks pretty good, Uncharted looks pretty great. Still not sure how they were able to pull some of that off without starting a house fire. The Order looks pretty good too, but not quite on the level of Rise of the Tomb Raider or Uncharted 4. Batman Akham Knight is really nice looking as well. The character models that games are making this generation are really really good. Some of them tread toward uncanny valley like Until Dawn, but Until Dawn stays just outside. I can't really say much about Quantum Break, as I haven't gotten to it yet, but all the changes that it had since reveal kind of killed my interest. I'll have to give that one a shot later. Right now at this moment, I'd have to saw Uncharted 4: A Thief's End. I'm not sure if I'm missing any of the heavy hitters. Unfortunately PC is losing out this generation with getting nothing but fucking multiplats. I understand that this is just the way the business is going to be, but I would like to see something really awesome and unique hit the PC. I'm afraid those days are over.
>>343324582
Graphics threads are always the worst on /v/
Just post an image of Crysis 1 that actually looks mediocre so that /v/s dick gets hard and the thread can die
>>343324673
Uncharted has inconsistent graphics
>>343317386
honestly uncharted 4 looks like shit because it runs at 25-30fps and is unplayable. input lag for days, motion blur taking up the entire screen every time you move the camera, etc.
I prefer shitty graphics to this. sadly the games ive enjoyed the most this gen for consoles are remasters because they actually run well
>>343321262
>copypasted trees
>ropes and hair look completely fake
>pants texture is a joke
witcher 3 is the most convincing open world. just watch this.

>>343324103
That looks awful though.
>>343323695
Why do the shoulder pads have chainlinks?
>>343324673
Uncharted looks as good as it does now the same way RE looked really good back in the day. Most of the environment and props are prebaked and not actually rendered in real time the same way other games do it.

You can read this if you wanna learn more about how ND does this sort of thing (although this one is for TLOU they used a lot of the same tricks with U4)
>>343324936
It sucks that the game is rather dead because it sure can look nice.
>no dynamic events like Rockstar games
>barely any NPC interaction like Fable/TES
>no hunting/fishing/collectable finding
>can't climb
>weather looks bad
>>343321787
Uncharted looks fantastic. It's nothing like Ubisoft downgrade or even their own downgrade of Uncharted 3. Chloe.jpg is done now. The problem with Ubisoft games is that you have to really follow all the different studios within the studio. Some of them are capable of making something look quite nice like Assassin's Creed Syndicate. While others make Rainbow Six.
The Witcher 3 looks quite nice too, no certainly not as amazing as it's announcement trailers but quite good nonetheless.
>>343324484

Xenoblade X had a more immersive and interesting open-world. Visual fidelity isn't what makes a game immersive.

>What game has the best graphics THIS-GEN
Battlefront, mostly thanks to photogrammetry.
>dem trees
>>343324835
Yeah. They did a lot of the stuff by hand so anywhere they missed something, didn't have time to mess with a thing, or just were constrained by the PS4 being weak the game looks bad compared to other things.
They also relied way too much on their textures and lighting and left a lot of low poly/generally shit stuff lying around because it wasn't a priority and they didn't have the time to make everything look good the way they were doing things.
>>343325206
Well, when you're trying to say it looks "realistic" yeah, saying its stylized is perfectly valid.
It honestly does look fairly stylized, and I can't find the particular screen I'm thinking of but Ciri literally looks like she's made of shiny plastic. Not as bad in this screen, but these do not look like they're real people I could go outside and potentially talk to. I find "they look like plastic" to be a perfectly valid point because the characters kind of do.
>>343324258
LMAO
>>343324258
Cute.
>>343325180
You forgot to mention the gameplay.
>>343325563
Whoops, forgot the image
>>343323469
There is just something off about The Vanishing of Ethan Carter. I think it's the grass just looks like spiderwebs. I haven't played it. Is it actually worth a playthrough? It may be one of those games that looks far better in motion.
>>343325474
Those textures just look so weird to me with the ultra sharp lighting in battlefront.
Really things don't look that washed out in real life. It just makes me feel weird.
>>343325364
Why
>>343325608
I don't get how people can say this is the pinnacle of modern WRPGs but then something like Skyrim or FO4 isn't considered an RPG at all. Both of those games have more and better RPG elements and offer more freedom to role-play, though that's not to say they're good games. Just better RPGs than Witcher.
>>343325734
its not that impressive. not sure why you think spamming more shitty pics will get people to reply positively
>>343322619
>1 game your able to actually walk over in the distance so its obviously more detailed
>the other game is just a background with low detail that you cant walk to
Stfu anon.
>>343325663
Witcher 3 looks great because it's visual style, hair, clothing material and textures aren't very good.
>>343323583
If you want to make a thread about how awesome Crysis is just go make it. The OP wanted to have this discussion without a million people talking about how great Crysis is.
Batman Akrham Knight.
It's open world and it looks so fucking amazing, the detail is beyond amazing, and the atmosphere is drenched in that Bioschock musty old feel to it. Besides the technical fuckups on PC the game is probably the most underrated AAA title this gen.
Ryse
Honestly I would like to see crytek go full beefcake on PC again, but then again all talent has left crytek by now
>>343325841
and this is a positive for uc4 how?
the other game looks better and you can actually go to that place
who gives a fuck
witcher 3. nothing even comes close. anyone that argues with this is a moron.
Mad max, it is beautiful if you have a high end PC
>>343325932
you are literally fucking retarded.
>>343318220
Use the 2016 crysis texture pack and the quality mod. Disable the shitty CA, cam delay and lower headbob ingame.
>>343325919
Even still they pretty much maxed out on graphics with Crysis 3, and they probably want to wait enough years to where Crysis 4 will be the next "Can you run it on your PC?" meme.
>>343325684
It is definetly one of those games that is better to experience yourself than look at screenshots. They use a dynamic soundtrack that changes based on where exactly you're standing in the level to really good effect, and some of the setpieces are super fucking incredible.
The game was basically just a giant tech demo for the technology DICE ended up using for the textures in Battlefront, as well as the skills of the team working on it. http://www.theastronauts.com/2014/03/visual-revolution-vanishing-ethan-carter/ is a good read if you like reading about graphical design in video games.
But yeah it's probably worth the $4 on steam or the PSN store and the few hours it'll take you to play through it.
>>343325984
>>343325917
I don't get the "Arkham Knight looks good" meme.
Someone explain it to me.
>>343325798
Not that hard to see why people parrot those opinions.
>>343325180
>Game is dead
3+ threads up a day
>can't climb
Have you played the game? Yes you can't be a monkey like Asscreed but you can get to where you're going, and Geralt has animations for climbing
>no collectibles
Gwent cards, witcher gear, and stuff relevant to the game you can go on treasure hunts for that aren't Skinner boxes? I'll take that over looting for shit that gives me an empty achievement and nothing more
>Weather looks "bad"

>>343321930

Keep monsters from biting the shoulder or neck. Most of the witcher armors are designed around monster hunting rather than fending off swords.
>>343318659
>>343325474
Battlefront has ruined every Frostbite 3 based game for me
I played it the trial version and every pixel on screen at every second looked fantastic
Then I played Mirror's Edge Catalyst and BF4 and the former looks very good in some spots and pretty bad in others while the latter is old gen as fuck
>>343323912
And everything in the fucking game looked like it had an awful blue layer over it. The reveal trailer looks nothing like the final game. I know that it was never going to look like the CG they introduced the game with, but they could've at least TRIED.
>>343325832
For 60FPS on console it looks good
>>343325841
>>343326039
Skyboxes used to look good

I mean it's literally dead, the world has very little life.
You can't climb most things in the game.
Those aren't collectibles.

It's more than just textures on the wall, it's the art direction and style. The particles are phenomenal when it comes to rain dripping off ledges and lamp posts, the wind blowing his cape off to the side. And the interiors of buildings have such incredible shading and lighting dynamics. The world comes alive in that world, and keep in mind that it's OPEN WORLD.

I don't think the graphics are meant to be completely realistic, many of the vistas bring to mind very detailed paintings.

I was actively trying to tank the FPS on Uncharted 4, and to my surprise it's actually harder to do than I thought. It is pretty solid at 30fps. I guess the frames per second talk has to end up in here too.
>>343325165
I really don't mind because the game looks really great because of it. It was a smart move. Star Wars Battlefront has static backgrounds and that paid dividends. It is interesting to see what developers have to do to make games that look like these on mid to low tier hardware. Fucking wizards.

Witcher 3 is such a weird game.
On one hand I can appreciate the amount of effort that went into the graphics and details.
On the other hand you often get weird animations on the characters. Some cutscenes have animations stiffer than a Bioware game. It kind of ruins the mood.
>>343326123
>>343327184
Thanks. I think you guys actually convinced me to give it a purchase. So rare to have a mostly positive discussion about current games. It's almost like days past.
Arkham Knight looks really great, especially on the PS4. Some of the best graphics out there. The character models are gorgeous, as is the world. For the people that don't really like it, what about it makes you think it doesn't look good?
>>343328303
yea it is. Arma 3 has realistic kart simulation model.
Forza doesnt even have modeled engine physics.

It isn't the pinnacle but it's pretty good and Bethesda hasn't made an RPG since Oblivion.
>>343328880
ok kid yourself, enjoy pressing the A button and turning a lot, I'll be enjoying a tactical and realisitic kart racing simulation.

How does your unmodded game look exactly like a modded game?
Stop shitposting you autist.
>>343329283
Computer games usually have graphics settings that can be changed.

Horizon is the arcade open world racer, which is why I like it, its not Motorsport
>>343327184
I remember in an interview before the game was released they explicitly said they could have gone super realistic with the photogrammetry but did not; they wanted a more fantasy(I'm not sure if that's the exact word they used)-like feeling to the game. I believe this was in regards to the trees in particular.

I can't find any reference to Arkham Knight actually using GI, but UE3 has support for pre-baked GI. Also, the engine could be modded to do anything you want - the renderer in Bioshock Infinite was rewritten, for example, and it has some kind of GI
>>343329007
When you go riding through the forest or traversing the hillside during magic hour and the evening sun hits the treetops and bathes everything in a golden glow like that, it's hard to care about whether it's realistic or natural or cartoony or whatever, it just looks beautiful.
>>343328772
>The character models are gorgeous, as is the world.
>as is the world
In what way?
From what I've played the world itself ranges from decent to crap. The game just hides a lot of it with lots of rain.
^Titanfall looks good
>>343319792
>Xbox
You are cute.
>>343330063
God no, Titanfall looks like crap.
Which is expected, it's a Source engine game.
>>343327998
that game looks like shit
>>343329182
But this is my point. How can you call Witcher an RPG and then say Skyrim and FO3/4 aren't? All of those Bethesda games offer more room to role-play both in the story and in your combat role and offer more diversity and depth in their RPG mechanics. Again, they're not good games or good RPGs, they're simply better RPGs than The Witcher.
Witcher just looks nice and is well-animated, that's about all it has going for it. The animations look fluid, but the controls and actual gameplay feel clunky and unresponsive as a result because Geralt has to have a little scripted/contextual animation for everything. It exemplifies almost everything wrong with modern RPGs, along with games like FO4 and Skyrim. Little/no depth in the actual gameplay, focus on a story with little meaningful choice that actually affects the story in a real way, extremely shallow combat and limited "builds" and a giant, pretty-but-empty open world with the same copy-pasted fetch quests and repetitive enemies and encounters.
>>343326039
I'm not even that guy, but he just fucking owned you. Uncharted is consolebaby garbage and you just admitted it, basically.
If you want to justify the shitty purchase of your PS4, you might want to avoid facts.
>>343328240
That's what I thought, I can definitely see that.
I suspect they were aiming for a similar thing with Witcher 3 too.
>>343329283
what, why are you so upset?
yes, the game looks like that depending on what time of day it is/weather and location conditions and runs steady on good PCs, no that doesn't mean you have to believe it's perfect. just admit people like it and you personally can't get your hands on it
socially awkward cunt; learn to fucking enjoy yourself
>>343330254
I'll give the secret away:Choice & consequence, dialogue that matters, a world that isn't just set dressing but is actually believable and has thought put into it.
>>343330370
Because you're lying.
Stop being a lying piece of shit.
>>343330147
It's debateable whether it's still Source, they re-wrote most of it apparently. The simple reason it doesn't look all that amazing is because it's a last gen game.
>>343330187
Explain how it looks like shit faggot
>>343330574
But that "choice and consequence" has no real consequence in terms of the world or the main story. Sure, some NPC might not be there at the end, you might get different dialogue, but that's about all it amounts to. Little/nothing in the world changes. And even if Witcher had some nice dialogue, it's still a game, not a book or film. Gameplay needs to come first. Making dialogue choices is fine gameplay if you're playing an adventure game, but I like my RPGs to have fleshed-out RPG elements and mechanics..
>a world that isn't just set dressing but is actually believable and has thought put into it.
Nope, the world is the same barren, repetitive shit you see in FO and TES. Bandit camps with the same randomly generated, useless loot, the same "FOLLOW THE BIG ARROW" fetch-quests. Witcher 3 would have been better off and more focused if it were not open world.
Xenoblade X is easily the best open-world game in a long, long time because the world itself is actually fun and interesting visually and to explore. Verticality actually exists and you're not motivated to explore by doing fetch-quests or potentially finding loot, you're motivated by simply wanting to see what's there because the world itself and the geography are interesting enough to warrant it.
>>343329920
Fifteen eurobucks in the steam sale... did they at least somewhat fix the game or is it still a broken mess?
Will a GTX970 manage ~2560x1440/60fps and decent graphics?
>>343331259
Do you have at least 12 GB of RAM?
Sure.
Do you have less than 12?
No.
>>343330687
LOL
it's not even that good anon, it's just comfy effects making it look better than what it is and it works. like I said time of day/location/weather is very important; every combination can give you a totally different look.
>>343331259
I played it a few days ago, +60FPS with everything maxed out + some of the NVIDIA effects
I have a 970, but only 1080p

It must suck to be someone who looks at art and is never satisfied, nothing is ever good enough. Stay bland.
>>343331517
It must suck to have tunnel vision and be a fanboy that ignores anything bad about a game he likes.
>>343325798
because skyrim and fallout sell itself on freedom and how much your choices matter (which its fails miserably at). Witcher doesn't, it tells you a story and you follow it
>>343331235
>Choice & consequence and dialogue interaction are not gameplay
Well you don't know what gameplay is I guess.
I'm not even the biggest fan of W3 and have many problems/gripes with it. It does a whole lot right and a whole lot wrong. One of the things done very well are the roleplaying aspects, which are very important in, you guessed it, an RPG.
The combat in Planescape is utter dogshit but god damn if it isn't one of the best RPGs ever made. Also JRPGs are not RPGs but adventure games or whatever the fuck you wanna call em.

Did not even read past that part before donning your condescension fedora, you simpering shitwit?
>Making dialogue choices is fine gameplay if you're playing an adventure game, but I like my RPGs to have fleshed-out RPG elements and mechanics.
Wicther is an action/adventure game with RPG elements, and its RPG elements are weak. It's just bafflingly hypocritical to say Skyrim or FO aren't RPGs but Witcher is, let alone that its a good RPG or even 10/10 GOTY. More proof that production values seem to matter more than actual gameplay, just sad.
>>343332114
If it's not 4K then it's shit. Every game looks like shit if it's not in 4K, actually 8K is only true K there is. Casual console peasants RUINING MY TOYS.
>>343332253
That's great, except not even a fucking GTX1080 is good enough for 4K gaming in AAA titles with high settings.
>>343331692
>because skyrim and fallout sell itself on freedom and how much your choices matter
But your choices mattering is exactly what I see Wicther fans point out, like this guy right here
>>343330574
>Choice & consequence, dialogue that matters
And Skyrim and FO give you about as much room to do that anyway, even if the writing and dialogue isn't good at all. Siding with the Stormcloaks or Imperials has about as much impact on the world as anything you do in
Witcher. And then, of course, those games also have a wider array of skills and combat options, allow you to design your character and don't stick that character with a voice and a set backstory (barring FO4, of course.) they're not good RPGs but they're better RPGs than Witcher.
>>343332208
What RPG mechanics are there exactly in Skyrim/FO4. How many meaningful ways can you solve problems, obstacles, etc. with different character builds or having made different choices in interactions earlier. C&C is non existent in these games, there are no RPG elements, no matter what route you pick nothing matters. Fallout 4 and Skyrim are not RPGs. By this logic Far Cry is a RPG because it has character progression by killing X jaguars.

I'm so fucking mad Crysis never got a sequel. They had a really enjoyable multiplayer they could've built further upon.
