You Have the op on ignore.Excuse my stupidity but why can't I find this thread in the gaming discussion? It's just not there and I need to find it through 'your content' frim my profile.
Lethal is hard af lol. Every enemy can 1 shot you. Need to turn down to hard.
That's not woke. That's a video game. Virtually every video game out there (and a shit ton of movies and books as well) are beyond what is possible for anyone, no matter your gender or how good with a sword you are. Even Kingdom Come: Deliverance, a game that prides itself on historical accuracy, is an extreme power fantasy.Never said a female MC is a woke element, the ability to kill hundred of better trained and physcaly strong men on 1v1 combat is the woke element.

Wow, not on purpose though. Thanks.You Have the op on ignore.
I'm itching to play more, but work has buggered that up for the time being. Seeing as it's absolutely pissing it down outside, my weekend is going to consist of me watching football and playing GOY, with the occasional soggy dog walk.
Guys i found the most woke game of all time. Dynasty Warriors!That's not woke. That's a video game. Virtually every video game out there (and a shit ton of movies and books as well) are beyond what is possible for anyone, no matter your gender or how good with a sword you are. Even Kingdom Come: Deliverance, a game that prides itself on historical accuracy, is an extreme power fantasy.
I'd go so far as to state this game is actually more believable than Tsushima was. A woman Ronin killing bandits in rural Hokkaido (especially after being a mercenary for almost two decades), is far more realistic than a single man turning back the Mongol invasion. The game even makes it pretty clear that a woman Ronin is extremely rare and you fight almost zero woman bandits or other woman Ronin.
Don't be retarded lol.
There aren't many flashbacks past the beginning, and yes you can sleep, you just need to interact with the horse..Man, al these flashbacks aren't working for me. Like, at all.
Also am I crazy or can you not sleep and fast forward time when camping?
Wtf lol I'm the first to shit on woke stuff but you're absolutely reaching here. Stellar blade was celebrated for its heroine, a hot babe almost naked, defeating things more threatening than in this game lolNever said a female MC is a woke element, the ability to kill hundred of better trained and physcaly strong men on 1v1 combat is the woke element.
The game makes it even more clear after the first 'boss' fight which is in the what, first 15 minutes of the game? Atsu isn't just a normal girl anymoreThat's not woke. That's a video game.

I'm not defending his case at all but stellar blade protagonass™ wasn't human so you can't really apply human laws.Wtf lol I'm the first to shit on woke stuff but you're absolutely reaching here.

Refer to my post above, Atsu isn't normal either.I'm not defending his case at all but stellar blade protagonass™ wasn't human so you can't really apply human laws.
Advanced fighter cyborg is still light years different from the toughest chick on the planet unless we are going into supernatural stuff that i hope the game doesn't touchRefer to my post above, Atsu isn't normal either.
I'll add spoiler tags but this is all in the first 15 minutes of the game:Advanced fighter cyborg is still light years different from the toughest chick on the planet unless we are going into supernatural stuff that i hope the game doesn't touch
althought the snake kill kinda hint to some weird shanenigans...
There was theories around Tsushima that....I'll add spoiler tags but this is all in the first 15 minutes of the game:
In the intro she states her mission is to kill the 6 then she'll join her family in death
After the kill Snake, they made it somewhat clear that she died and was brought back
People called her a ghost as well
It's pretty obvious what's going on here, a bit too obvious, I kind of hope it'll be something else or the ending is already figured
It may be just symbolism dude, they called jin a ghost aswell and he suffered big injuries aswell and then he healed, that could be considered like a symbolic death and reborn stuff, i don't think they are going with the supernatural angle but with the yakuza tough angle where kiryu get fucked by guns and other big injuries but he scoff everything off, not sure if this angle is good for a somehow more realistic story with a woman, kiryu is kinda of superman in the yukuza lore basically.I'll add spoiler tags but this is all in the first 15 minutes of the game:

i think she said that she is gonna kil herself after killing the 6 because she feels responsible for bringing saito to his father home, she want to punish herself.
For now the biggest hint of supernatural is her kinda ignoring the snake trapassing her with his sword, the game doesn't seem to explain what happen after that and if she had to stay put for a couple of month to heal or not, it feel lile she is immediately ok after that injury
It's all a bit strange but i hope she is not a real ghost, it would immensively lower the stakes if she can't die, i would hate that.
I sincerely hope you are wrong.We'll see but
I definitely think she's a vengeance spirit and once the 6 are dead she'll just rest in peace with her family
Never said a female MC is a woke element, the ability to kill hundred of better trained and physcaly strong men on 1v1 combat is the woke element.
What this guy said.No man can do that either. Theres always going to be someone more quick and better just as there can be a woman quicker and deadlier. History taught us that not always the big and strong win/survive. Skill/agility matters just as much. Also, video game. Also, not defending the game, I also dont like playing as a femboss, but lets not get ahead of ourselves. Jin wasn't big either, in fact both Jin and this chick have the same body type and Jin fought against massive Mongolians.
Highly doubt it since it's been known for months.I sincerely hope you are wrong.
Like i said, it could be all symbolism, that article prove nothing.Highly doubt it since it's been known for months.
I actually would like that. BUT, I don't think that's the case.It's all a bit strange but i hope she is not a real ghost, it would immensively lower the stakes if she can't die, i would hate that.
Bojji I can confirm that the in-game model is not being swapped on engaging photo mode. They are all identical. Also did a few RTGI tests without even going to photo mode:
![]()
This above shot showed the biggest difference below (pro quality mode vs RT Pro). In addition to the interior and model lighting differences, notice how even the lighting of exterior patches look brighter when standing in a shaded area (shot was about a second apart):
![]()
A more subtle example below. Aside from what DF/NX Gamer showed, notice changes in lighting on her clothes. It's drastic enough on her clothes that despite the 4k texture detail, quality mode looks too flat and harsh, like her clothes are missing sub surface scattering (though it's really just the light bounce making the difference). Also fixes the weird glow/leak in her left eye.

Field tests:
Biggest difference on Atsu's back and Shamisen. Getting lit properly without flat shadow.
![]()
A more dramatic effect on horse. Notice how the quality mode is slightly brighter outside (a few seconds apart in my shot), yet the horse has much darker and flat shadows. With RT pro, the horse lights up so beautifully as the whites reflect it so much. Also shout out to the fantastic texture work on the saddle. You can see how light behaves differently on the stirrups (footrest) as well
![]()
Not seeing noticeable change to the foliage itself when it's directly lit. Though I do see fog often behaving differently (reflect light more and blooms out). Need to test that more to be sure I'm not imagining it.
And the last comparison is of our favorite rock texture. I'm still in the opening area of the game, but it's not actually as bad as we thought it would be. Decent texture detail. RTGI softens up the flat, harsh shadows of quality mode quite nicely as well.

And one bonus shot of a thatched roof on RT Pro as that was apparently an exciting debate on that other graphics showdown thread:

More NPC testing tonight as I'm still way too early in the game. I'm so obsessed with photo mode that I'm yet to even start any main or side quest. Lol.
Never said a female MC is a woke element, the ability to kill hundred of better trained and physcaly strong men on 1v1 combat is the woke element.
There's a scene where she fist fights like 8 guys at an inn and winsI mean she has, like, a lot of weapons.
It does apply, but the NPC models are significantly lower quality compared to Atsu and the horse with regard to textures, sub surface scattering etc., so the effect is much more subtle. I'll have more tests done tonight, but this was from an older test from a compressed youtube video. Notice how the closest NPC face, arms, and armor on bottom right reacts to the moonlight. RT looks right while the non-RT face has weird shadows and glow on his right eye. The armor looks incorrect without RTGI as well.Its a shame that RT doesn't seem to apply to npcs and other characters.

And this one is pretty obvious. The shadows even take a red hue from the cloth

That would be accurate. Lol. Probably the biggest weakness in the game are NPC model quality and their animations. They could learn a thing or two from Guerilla Games on how they pulled that off. It has been improved quite a bit since the trailers (they've added some inverse kinematics and animation blending), but still could be a LOT better.Interesting. Then I guess that NPCs are so ugly that not even raytracing can make them justice lol
To each their own, I wouldn't have a problem with it besides being it too obvious. Would of liked a 6th sense kind of cliffhanger.Like i said, it could be all symbolism, that article prove nothing.
They also call her a wolf but she is not a literal wolf.
It would be bad if she can't die, you erase all the stakes in the story and for what? For some cool symbolism?
How do you feel about motion blur? So far, whatever I tested looks significantly better without it at 60 fps. A lot of foliage detail gets lost as they are constantly moving. Seems to add value only at 30 fps or for screenshots.Played for 6 hours straight today. It was hard to stop. Imo this is better than tsushima. Game looks amazing in RT Pro mode, never had any fps issues in 14 hours. The game is more cinematic, the music is amazing and the combat is incredibly satisfying
