You forgot *plays DQH gameplay footage on phone*

I did not realize that. Goes to show how, if you fuck up out the gate, perception may never recover.
I'll get Unity eventually, maybe when it's like $5 on a Steam sale. I still haven't finished 3, which is the last Creed game I played.

There is a very large thread that spans over a hundred pages showing very specific examples of the numerous downgrades.
Have fun! Again, it's still a good looking game at most times but acting like the downgrade wasn't extensive is silly.

Indeed, that x-ray face became a meme for the game on the PC which is a shame given it was fixed at launch but oh well. Game runs great now(wasn't awful at launch) and still looks amazing, and I'd argue that overall it's still the best looking game available on any platform.

That thread was full of circular arguments and utterly specious examples from poorly sourced footage and wilful ignorance. I was in that thread for a considerable span.
Just look at that first post. Nobody is arguing that the engine wasn't changed and that their initial examples didn't look better in many ways. My argument is that looking at all footage up to a year before the game released is fairly accurate.

The one with Lorne Lanning sticks out in my mind as being particularly good.

I'm sure you defended the game's honor ably.

When are alphas and pre-release footage ever representative of the final game? Like, come on.
A single asterisk would've killed this entire debate from the get-go, had CDPR shown some foresight.

It isn't a question of honor. It is a question of what it means to lie about a games final appearance.
Should developers make marketing materials early on? How do they know what the game is going to look like 2 years later?
If you look at late marketing materials you can clearly see that they're fairly accurately representing the game.
Yes this is surely a messaging mistake. However, I'd argue people on a gaming forum should have a certain amount of awareness of game development cycles. Obviously more recent footage is more veritable than earlier footage. They should have also more clearly stated that the older footage was from an old engine. There were statements made in interviews that alluded to this but they didn't reach wide circulation.

Guys I'm bad at Rocket League. It seems fucking great and I want to play more, but I'm not there yet.

lang fanboys over vinny and drew like somebody who posts in this thread
vvvvvvv if cherries were ever picked, they're picked right there. It's insane to play the witcher 3 and deny that it's anything but gorgeous.
Yup!

There are notable exceptions, but usually games look better than early footage...unless the footage is bullshit.
Yeaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah that's unfortunate. :/
Nope. Waiting for LiS...

There's a Star Wars trailer? Will Max Rebo make his triumphant return?

Can't wait to find out none of my decisions mattered and discover the unique way in which they will bungle explaining time travel.

Look at Adam. That's the face of a man who backed up a Jeep into the Midway offices.
Preorders are already up

I hope Warren goes and dicks Brook instead of turning into a fedora once my Max finally rejects him once and for all.

Boy, Star Wars tickets did not happen.
I can't see it until the following week anyway.
I just want ONE ticket, isn't that sad enough?

No? Ever watched an E3?
Only with Giant Bomb mocking how ridiculous all that stupid shit is. And in the days before readily available streaming videos I was waiting for new announcements, not for a trailer of a known quantity.
I totally forgot RAW was on because I'm waiting for the Eagles game. Anything good happen?

They opened with Stone Cold and he got a really big pop.
You should really watch it when you can. Otherwise nothing much so far. Opening with New Day who are as great as always, though you start to worry how fresh they can keep their skits when Vince isn't giving them much to work with.
I can understand that. Usually i'll watch the first trailer of something and if it grabs me i'll go on blackout until the movie/show/game is released. Mostly because they like telling the ENTIRE story in the trailer these days, it's insane.

For the marathon or the actual force awawkens?
I was getting a very "this is going downhill" vibe from New Day tonight for the first time.
