Is there a point when graphics can't get any better?
Uncharted 4 looks better
>>334603323
when they start modeling everything in higher dimensions
When will these dumb western devs start to value art direction as much as they value shiny leaves?
>>334603323
when you get to atom level
>>334603323
Im legitimately considering buying this game just because its so pretty
>>334603323
>is there a point when bullshots can't get any better?
I don't think so. But I would love to see gameplay with graphics like this someday.
>>334603760
Then you're cancer.

i just appreciate nice looking things
Maybe I'm just easy to please but most games look pretty good to me these days. Maybe it's a case of just being used to it, like how PS1 MGS looked amazing back then and now it looks like cubes to me. I don't know man, I doubt it could get much better other than details like layers in the character models and environment. Like having flesh and bone with no preset damage textures or zones.

There is, but it's far from today.
What is here today though, is a point where making realistic graphics past a point is too expensive.
>>334603323
I've always wondered why they don't just use real people/locations. Why put in all the effort into graphic-making when you can use the real thing easily. A live-action videogame would be awesome and graphics would never be an issue again.

>bullshots
The game actually looks like that though.
when graphics are good animations are shit
>>334603323
There is, but we are a long way off from it.
>>334603450
The light from those thrusters look awful.

How new are you?
>>334603323
Yeah, when it looks that good in motion
>>334604295
And it's perfectly optimised, shame about the shit gameplay though.
>>334603323
Which game is this ?
>>334604267
Do you have any idea how much recording and screening animation like that would cost? You do realize most movies cost a lot more than games right?
>>334603695
UNLIMITED
>>334604267
you'd best be baiting

Not that it's a shining example but look at quantum break, they use live action sequences.
Graphics aren't good until everything is done in real time instead of baking a static environment
>>334605286
Thanks for the reminder,never ever
Not sure but there sure is a point when I stopped caring about graphics and we have stepped over that point long ago.
>>334605841
They realised that their engine is dogshit for games and are now trying to pass it off as an engine to display static, photorealistic environments - in theory.
AFAIK the last thing they've shown was a hilarious proof-of-concept online demo that only worked in Chrome.
Since it would normally take a large amount of data to pull something like this off they had to lower the details and quality which resulted in the shown cathedral looking like something out of the DOS game Comanche.
>>334606042
the thing is, I play games for gameplay and not for graphics and realism
quantum break is worst offender in that category because it put all emphasis on story telling
that does not make for a good video game, if you want to make movies, just make them
the medium has a purpose and bending it to your will won't work
that would be like including littles movie clips in a book
>>334603323
We can make some things look real, but we can't have a lot of things looking real all at once. That is where graphics will be improving over the next decade.
>>334603474
SHUT UP SONYGGER!!!
>>334604267
Please tell me this is bait?
Or you're retarded?
>>334603323
There's a point when graphics are good enough, and its time to invest into content, gameplay and other factors and not just waste funds on eye candy with no depth.
>>334603760
get it for the cheapest price on a third party site
it has enough content for a 30buckaroos game
Graphics progression are like tick-tock cycles at Intel.
First you innovate
Then you perfect
repeat for infinity
>>334605841
they made a point cloud renderer for large scale 3d scans
it works pretty good
since every dev with any knowledge of how games works knows it was a scam, and that you cant use an voxel engine to make good looking games
it has too much problems to deal with, its a dead end etch we dropped good 2 decades ago
>>334604086
No you're not easy to please, you're sane. Graphics for the most part look pretty good now. When people make threads crying about how X new game looks awful I am uncertain as to what they are smoking or what they're comparing it to
>>334604267
They do need to bring back fmv movies in games like resident evil. Complete with shitty acting.
Was awesome.
