It looks slightly better in motion well at least the environments do. Hopefully they backpedal and do better looking character models.

The new System Shock remake looks way better though.
>>
>>342776357
well I do happen to know a little bit about rendering technology
quake was the first game with fully perspective-corrected texturized polygonal 3d environments that Im aware of; everything since has been refinements of that formula
that nowadays textures are used to generate a lot of additional effects besides a plain structural "wallpaper" texture plus a prebaked lightmap doesnt change the fact that this is just a refinement
that all the rendering is nowadays performed by specialized (gpu) hardware instead of a general-purpose cpu is just a difference of implementation

Call of Chernobyl is based on Call of Pripyat's engine, which came out in 2009. Though the engine is just an updated engine of SoC's engine, which was 2007, but it had been in development much longer and was initially supposed to come out in 2003.
>>
>>342776604
Brofist bro, I fucking love me some Skyrim too!

>>342776802

Not by much. But I'm usually against remakes so that might just be me. I don't see why they're remaking SS1 when the enhanced edition is perfectly fine. I don't get the obsession people have these days and wanting old games remade. Can people seriously not put aside dated graphics and just enjoy older games?
>>
>>342776270

>>
>>342777078
They're trying to get more people into the series for SS3 is my guess.
>>
>>342776737
I guess if you look at "fully perspective-corrected texturized polygonal 3D environment" as the base for every other 3D game ever then that makes sense but there have been tons of large leaps in graphics since then. Real time lighting, shadow volumes, shadow maps, deferred rendering, among others.

>>342776909
Call of Chernobyl is basically a mod for Call of Pripyat. It's using a modified version of CoP's engine that leaked a few years back. But CoP's engine is just an updated SoC engine, it's not an entirely new engine. And while SoC came out in 2007 it was originally meant to come out in 2003, so that engine is pretty old just with some updates to it since, kind of like how Valve has updated Source since 2004, though I don't know to what extent they updated it so it could be closer to a new engine.

It's probably using Clear Sky's versions of SoC's maps since they share a lot of them and CS's look better.

It's a free play mod that has maps from all 3 games and lets you choose your faction so you can play as a bandit or the military or whatever. It uses a community updated version of Call of Pripyat's engine, which leaked in like 2013 or something.

Mechanically it looks pretty sweet. The system shock remake is a different dev team. From my understanding there's like 3 different Otherside dev teams with a handful of guys for each of them.

>Real time lighting, shadow volumes, shadow maps, deferred rendering, among others.
right, as I was saying, incremental improvements and diminishing returns
>>
>>342778708
You could say it was whatever game was the first truly 3D game and that Quake just did incremental improvements in adding textures and having more things be modeled rather than sprites.
>>
>>342777860
Just wait until you realize how much better SS1 is than 2.
>>
>>342779048
thats true to a degree but the first fully 3d games didnt really have much in the term of "environments" to speak of, they were typically space sims or flight sims or the like which I think kind of disqualifies them. quake was to a degree the first fully realized 3d "world"
>>
>>342779048
also using sprites would have made it not fully 3d so something like doom wouldnt count even if the environments were fully 3d (which they were not)
>>
>>342779205
Pretty sure System Shock and the game that used the same engine before it were 3D but they still used sprites for everything. As opposed to Doom which was 2D made to look 3D.

>>342779356
Why wouldn't it count? The world and movement is 3D in the games I mentioned above and they even have some 3D objects.
>>
>>342779545
System Shock 1 definitely had some real 3D going on, but from what I remember Ultima Underworld wasn't. You could look up and down with no warp in Shock 1 where in Underworld it would.
>>
>>342779545
imho having a fully realized 3d environment with 3d objects is where the fundamental paradigm shift happened>>342779545
>>
>>342779826
it still used sprites though didnt it? for objects

>>342779948
System Shock had some 3D objects but also a lot of sprites. I'm just thinking about your "incremental upgrades" idea and it seems like just adding more 3D models would be an incremental upgrade over whichever game was the first to be actual 3D.

>>342784573
Doom's engine was deliberately somewhat "un-advanced", taking render speed over fancy features, implementing just what would be needed to make the kind of levels they wanted (so Doom has its sector brightness and varied floor heights and support for non-perpendicular walls, all of which massively improved the way levels could be designed in an FPS, but the features are there to be more utilitarian than aesthetic).
IIRC, I remember reading that Carmack was going to put slopes into Doom at some point and didn't for speed reasons.
Keep in mind that Ultima Underworld runs a lot more slowly than Doom does on a machine of the era, too. It's playable, but it's not quick enough for a fast-action game like Doom.

also, even though Doom doesn't have true-3D map layout (which made it much easier to design maps, since you could plan them out in a top-down editor or a piece of paper), it has enough data for more full-3D calculations than it does in-game (there's no technical reason other than laziness that two things can't stand on top of each other, Doom objects do have heights -- it simplifies the logic, but not enough to really be a major speed gain)
probably didn't come up that much because early versions of Doom had a bug regarding large height differences and Doom 1 maps aren't terribly tall at all, so you rarely ended up way above an enemy where it having effectively infinite vertical height really mattered

You see those trees? You see how they're only near houses? Now, follow me on this one, it's a doozy - the humans planted them there. So if nuclear holocaust affected the vast majority of the world, killed most of what little foliage there was in the nevada deserts, do you think that these foreign trees that are being supported by humans would have the ability to not only continue growing, but multiply?

tl;dr? I restate the previous, kill yourself.

Videogames are expensive to make, and if you want to do simple things like coding, you gotta hire a couple really good coders, or an army of less good ones.

So rather than make crisis shock XXV, they're taking a classic and 'making it modern, dawg!' They get an almost instant success.

This is a 1998 PC videogame.

It was literally and for real made on a custom engine developed for many years in one of the dev's parents' garage.

In 2016, we're not allowed to have mirrors in games, let alone portals that teleport your missiles. That was such a meme there for a bit, I think they made a meme videogame out of the concept, but it didn't have mirrors, so it's still inferior.

Portal and Portal 2 have those portal things though. And plenty of games have mirrors and reflections

Rendering tech is different than it was in 1998 so you can't do things the same way you used to be able to do them. That and most devs don't think portals or mirrors are necessary and so don't bother implementing them.

>>342795506

Well, you see, to make pixel art, that's like any other art. It takes a lot of work and effort if you want it to look good, but these are sprites that are supposed to be essentially in constant motion, so you must be really fucking good to do it correctly.

Here is SNK's own summary.

Takashi Tezuka mentioned in a smm interview that Nintendo had a hard time making new pixel art for the game. The artists simply weren't train it 2D art, only 3D modeling.
It's easier for them to make a 3D model and trace it than to actually draw something.

>>342795689

This is a shit excuse.

SNK was originally like 10 guys. They never had problems making great looking games, or even the first ever yearly installment of a videogame series.

The original guilty gear was made by 12 people. They did all the voices, the sprites, the music, wrote the lore, drew the art for the manual, and decided that the secret boss should be Kenshin with tits.

Years later, another similarily sized team would do it all over by creating guilty gear Xrd.

How many people worked on good indie games like Freedom planet? Not a whole lot.

It's almost like making videogames takes a certain skillset, but the average indie dev doesn't know this. They just want to shit out their horrible pixel art fuck fests and make easy money.

Regardless, going into sprites is a fool's errand. You're not gonna be able to compete with ancient japanese masters or french specialists. Just make shitty 3d models instead. It's less pathetic when you get compared to something like the latest call of duty, rather than master crafted metal slug sprites.

>>342795806
Those details, shading and touches they add to the final sprites which they draw on top of the reference images could have been put to the 3D model itself and tweak the renderer a bit so that you could simply just render the model and it would end up looking like the final product.

What a giant waste of time and effort.

There's no way they had 50 developers back in 1994. 50+ total employees, sure, but that includes all the service people for their hardware business.

Metal slug and their beat 'em up games were made by specific internal teams under ur-veteran supervision. I don't think KOF was any different. They probably pulled a guy from this team, one from that team, a sprite artist here, got a composer there, and that was it. You're now team KOF! Find a way to merge all these franchises into one. You have this budget, and one year.

“Hipster” is a term co-opted for use as a meaningless pejorative in order to vaguely call someone else’s authenticity into question and, by extension, claim authenticity for yourself.

It serves no conversational function and imparts no information, save for indicating the opinions and preferences of the speaker.

Meanwhile, a market myth has sprung up around the term, as well as a cultural bogeyman consisting of elusive white 20-somethings who wear certain clothes (but no one will agree on what), listen to certain music (no one can agree on this either), and act a certain way (you’ve probably sensed the pattern on your own).

You can’t define what “that kind of behavior or fashion or lifestyle” actually is, nor will you ever be able to. That’s because you don’t use “hipster” to describe an actual group of people, but to describe a fictional stereotype that is an outlet for literally anything that annoys you.

The twist, of course, is that if it weren’t for your own insecurities, nothing that a “hipster” could do or wear would ever affect you emotionally. But you are insecure about your own authenticity - “Do I wear what I wear because I want to? Do I listen to my music because I truly like it? I’m certainly not like those filthy hipsters!” - so you project those feelings.

Suffice it to say, no one self-identifies as a hipster; the term is always applied to an Other, to separate the authentic Us from the inauthentic, “ironic” Them.

fucking THAT. you know whats a story that girl gaymers never seem to bring up? there is a country where the woman demanded that men pander to them, and make games for them, and the men said "lol fuck off, do it yourself"

and you know what they did? they did it themselves. now, if you look at that country they have a section of the gaming industry, an ENTIRE genre to themselves, because they fucking nutted up and made their games without anybodys help. if your a man and trying to break into that slice of the pie, gettttt ready to be laffed the fuck out, sorry, woman only!

>So 2016 Doom's multiplayer is better than 1996 Quake's multiplayer?
Yes? Quake 1's multiplayer is exteremely dated and archaic in comparision to even the most mediocere modern multiplayer shooters. Who the fuck would want to go back to that? Other than nostalgiafags and hipsters of course. There's a reason why Q1's multiplayer is dead.

>>342797523
>And there's a game right now with objectively better multiplayer than CS?
CS:GO, BLOPS3, BF4, Overwatch, League of Legends, Halo 5, R6 Siege, the list goes on.

>Even though I've never played any of these games?
Then how would you know that they're worse than the old games you worship? You just outed yourself as a hipster.

>Basically you're saying this guy is just a totally wrong 12+18 year old.
He's a dumb youtuber with irrelavent opinions blinded by his own nostalgia

If you grew up playing video games during the 90's to today you'd notice that there has been a drastic shit in the quality of gaming. It went from a hobby a group of people worked on that happened to get compensated for it, to an industrialized homogenized industry that caters to everyone by stripping out most mechanics and appealing to the lowest common denominator. Modern games miss that special something that devs used to put into their games because they genuinely cared about their work and didn't care about money or what people wanted to play.

priorities. You have limited VRAM, to put all your textures in. So you give objects more VRAM (higher resolution textures) that really need all the detail, and accept some pixelation on the ones that don't.

I know what you mean even if you're being a sperg over it.

Clutter is a big problem in modern games, and its only getting bigger as games are more and more impressive graphically.
There is so many things on your screen at once, everything is so detailed and bootiful it becomes hard to focus on the important parts.

However Doom 2016 really is a bad example, the game is beautiful BUT they managed to make everything ( hp and armor pick ups, items like secrets, etc ) easily identifiable.

There are many others games where it is a problem because everything is grey or brown ( like wolfenstein TNO ), Doom isnt one of them really.

Also pls get off your high horse.

I love retro Doom too, but you should acknowledge that the new one got many things right. Hating on it just sends the message to others devs to release the same crap we had to deal with these last few years ( TNO being overrated as fuck imho, Shadow Warrior 2 while being awesome in theory isnt fun to play at all, SS3 is mediocre with crappy gunplay, etc the list goes on ).

new Doom is one of those games where you feel like getting gud expands the scope of the game, the campaign might be short but I think its very replayable too. Its rare enough nowadays to be worth mentioning.

Finally and because it seems to bother you so much you can disable chromatic aberration, all kinds of bloom and depths of field effects as I did before even starting the campaign. Adjusting the FoV to like 110 also greatly enhance your feeling of movement speed.

GLQuake (1997, and the version the ports are usually based off) will run at any resolution you plug in with any HUD size you want through launch options.

>-width 1920 -height 1280 -conwidth 864 -conheight 486 +fov 106

So no, that resolution is not far from standard. It's within standard range because standard is any number you want.

>using an old code base as inspiration, and some old assets. That's about it. Engine's from 2010 or more recent

The engine is from 1996. It doesn't use old code base as an inspiration, it IS that old code base with some lines tweaked to run on a modern system.

Valve has used the Source engine since 2004. The current (pre-2) version has way more features than the CSS/HL2 version, but would you call it anything but Source or claim it's not the same engine?

It's just, lately these games have become so uniform, and oddly "flat". I mean, they're still 3D, obviously, but everything about them has this kind of 2D drawn look. Maybe the deferred lighting? Doom 4 is just kind of one of many very similar looking games. I can not and will not comment on its gameplay, this is entirely visually. It just doesn't move me, at all.

sure, if it changed quite fundamentally? You don't write anything like that from scratch, that'd be silly. Even tech 5 is based on tech 4, which is based on tech 3, and so on. You'd not claim Rage runs on the Quake 3 engine though, would you? To some degree it does though, code's still in there, or parts of it, heavily adapted

i really don't know how to tell you this, anon, but you are the one blatantly projecting.. the problem is, you're the kind of person that can be told the literal most logical and factual truths, and you'd still deny them. you're the kind of person that, instead of actually giving any sort of reasons why your opinions should be notable at all, just calls everyone salty and a hipster.
you haven't grown up past the fact that these words and views are shallow and vague. they contain no actual information.
instead of telling us how old games are somehow bad yet new games are somehow worse, you're just telling us that you dislike the people who play them. you have no actual point. you're trying to pass off "they're just oldfag hipsters!!" as some sort of verifiable truth, and it's getting a little fucking sad. you have no peers here.

They still are. People realized there was money in games ever since the 70's. The 90's gaming industry was was no less profit driven, investors and buisness men are always what made your favorite old games possible.

This is literally the complete opposite of reality. Dev cycles are longer than ever taking +3-4 years to pump out a AAA game that costs hundreads of millions of dollars to develop. Modern MMOs are esepcially guilty this as it can take more than half decade to bring an MMO to market and almost bankrupt a company.

You are completely ignornant if you think clone games weren't prevalent in the 90's. The only difference between now and then is that the tools for making cheap vidya are more accessible than before.

I asked

That means, I am unfamiliar with the meme used in OP, and do not actually understand how to decode it. Responding to such a post with "yeah, it's that meme" is not very helpful. The remainder of the posts I asked "but what's that meme about?" and got variants of "IT'S THAT MEME!!!"

>where is the conflict?
I do not understand the concept behind the meme. OPs pic is an RPG with an outdated engine. I can not tell if OP posted it ironically or not. I can not tell if OP meant to go for the nostalgia angle, or if it's a mustard race clickbait along the lines of "look how shitty PC games used to be". I literally do not know what kind of screens I'm supposed to post on this thread. I do sense that I'm supposed to add the "this is a <platform> <year> game" caption for lol reasons, but beyond that, I have no idea. Posts from others aren't helping, because some of them are trying to boast high end visuals, others are showing even worse stuff than OP, others are rooting their posts in plain nostalgia for that time. I don't have a problem with either of these topics, but I have no idea what the actual topic of the thread is.

maybe the other argument isn't being touched upon because those people aren't being huge argumentative pricks about it. they just said it and went on their way. you are fucking adamant that calling everyone a nostalgia hipster is the end-all, be all argument that cannot be trumped, but like, it's not even an argument. it's just petty buzzwordy insults being thrown around to somehow say old games are bad and you should feel bad. it's just a ploy to try to make yourself feel more superior. too bad absolutely nobody here actually fucking agrees with the full extent of your views. the combination of choice words you have given us are not desirable, and you are being shown the door. in this context, to disagree with this is indistinguishable from not understanding. because hipster is an opinion, but pointless fucktard is a state of being you just end up in. both may be things that people only refer to others as, but they dont function the same way when it comes to validity. you calling everyone nostalgia hipsters is pointless and meaningless and not insulting, but me calling you out is just a fucking fluid reaction to blatant bullshit. seriously, stop spewing this garbage. admit that you just like arguing on four chan dot org.

how the fuck did i misunderstand it? he said: "is this supposed to be X?" and my reply is basically "yes."
i don't know how many time i have to tell you that intentionally misunderstanding and misreading my words does not correlate with my words being nonsense. it just means you can't fucking read, it just means you have no fucking sense of inferred logic or how the concept of that even works. you just don't even know what you're talking about. you're not giving any reasons or logic behind your point, still, either. you've yet to actually explain why you think your opinion is your opinion. what are the factors that let to this view? are they subjective, or are you just a dick? you're trying to claim people are hypocritical and stupid for calling you hypocritical and stupid, but not really saying Why.

It's easier to do simulation type stuff when you have fuck all for graphics, animation, physics, etc. Though devs should still try and do that kind of thing, but nobody makes anything besides AAA games and budgetless indie games anymore.

they aren't. you're actually misreading it. like, no hostility, no, argument, misreading it. the thing you are responding to was not at all contained within my wording. your reply directly indicates a misunderstanding. please try reading it again.
like, sincerely. legitimately. you are misreading people's words, and it's getting a little out of hand.

You definetely have autism because you can't handle different opinions and people calling you a hipster
>>
>>342806576
dude. you said every single person who plays old games is a nostalgia or a hipster. and people are telling you that this is not the case. No one cares about what YOU have to say. an opinion thats shitting on people or video games will never be more important than opinions that things are fun and enjoyable. go back to fucking reddit if youre going to such an edgelord.

Not only did I not say this, but it's ironic that you spent the entire thread accusing others of misreading and misintepretating, misunderstanding posts when you actually can't read other people's words.

>No one cares about what YOU have to say.

That's why you're still dedicated to trying to contradict what I have to say.

NO U though, that's a nice touch.
