Sometimes it's like the skin textures is too flat.No idea what was going on with Peter's model in the first few cutscenes but its really improved in the last few missions. Finally some proper skin shading and lighting.

Entire argument rendered completely moot by me referencing those games against Spider-Man 2 not ya know, games that literally have the best graphics on the market (demon souls/cyberpunk PC/horizon 2) and nebulous “other games released this year”lol come on with the hyperbole. Uncharted looks good but pales in comparison to some of the shit released this year alone. Let alone cyberpunk, ratchet, demon souls and horizon fw.
Uncharted 4 still looks good because of its art style. Pretty graphics fool people into thinking games are pushing technical boundries when in fact they are just pretty. TLOU2 looks better than Uncharted 4 in every single aspect. Better lighting, better animations, better cutscene models, better foliage, better water, rain, anything you can think of. HFW blows it out of the water. Foliage is a big one. uncharted foliage and trees, especially in open world areas like in Madcasgar and Lost Legacy are really a step behind horizon 1's trees, alone forbidden west. People are talking about character models. Well, in cutscenes they look fine, during gameplay? nah. They use really low LOD character models during gameplay which pales in comparison to HFW's amazing hero lit character models during gameplay.
Same is true for Arkham Knight. The art direction and rain is masking a lot of its technical shortcomings. I have talked about it numerous times here so I wont bother repeating myself here, but Far Cry 6 is a last gen game that is about to be obliterated by another ubisoft game called Avatar. So nah, im not going to cry about a 2021 ubisoft game looking worse than crysis when ubisoft is about to set a new bar for open world rendering and gameplay simulations.
I have brought this up before, but this thread ought to look at what the games are doing well instead of cherrypicking comparisons to show what other games in the past did better. Ratchet straight up looks cg. Alan Wake 2 has a pre-rendered movie look. FF16 had its moments. Starfield looks absolutely insane at times. Cyberpunk Phantom Liberty is just setting a new bar in urban area graphics rendering. And spiderman 2 is pushing many things we simply didnt see last gen from all these A tier developers like rockstar, GG, nd, ssm, cdpr etc.
Trust me you dont want me to post cherrypicked pictures of Barbara Gordon, Poison Ivy, Gordon and Bruce Wayne himself. Lets just appreciate Batman AK for the masterpiece it was and give due credit to recent releases.
P.S These are screenshots of uncharted lost legacy and HFW i posted in 2017 to show how incredible they looked. If I posted them today in this thread, i would get laugh out of the thread.
What are these trees lol.
Why would i take this ugly screenshot?
what the fuck is even happening here. where is the level of detail?
This is what ND was doing in 2017. Again, i captured this because i was wowed by this back then.
Meanwhile, These are the worst cutscenes in a game ever made by Sony first party. 2023.
Which is why I've been saying the game is incredibly inconsistent. You can clearly see the scenes Insomniac put some effort into, and most of them are in the last 30 minutes. Even MJ looks passable in a few of them!No idea what was going on with Peter's model in the first few cutscenes but its really improved in the last few missions. Finally some proper skin shading and lighting.

I watched the entire Spoilercast interview with Kinda Funny. They had the creative director on the show and he basically made it clear there’s 2 teams…. The B team made Spiderman 2. The team that did the amazing looking Ratchet Rift Apart is doing Wolverine. They are the A team. At least when it comes to tech, they are the pioneers.No idea what was going on with Peter's model in the first few cutscenes but its really improved in the last few missions. Finally some proper skin shading and lighting.

I doubt if wolverine is going to open world but that should contribute to it looking good.
Wolverine is a linear game not open world.

I keep thinking MJ in Spider-Man 2 is the daughter of lead protagonist in Remedy’s CONTROLWhy does MJ look like Mask?
If I'm not mistaken,there was an open world a Wolverine game on in the PS3/360 era.
Yeah, they hate women.I don't get it. So according to Americans it's sexist to make MJ look young and hot, but perfectly fine to make the Peter model look ten years younger and more attractive(to some)? I don't think I'll ever get the mindset of the people left of the big pond.
It was linear.
Thats nuts if true. From what I recall, they said wolverine is being done by the miles team while the ratchet team was doing spiderman 2. I figured the miles team was the b team since it was basically a DLC.
yeah, thats why i put realistic in quotes. we all know why they are making women ugly, but id rather not derail this thread.
Yeah I tried the same , I settled at 75%. But the explanation what it all does is non-existent, at least not helpful. Game does look better if you up , paperwhite .Screenshots taken from various Alan Wake threads. That lake sunset is jaw dropping in HDR. Note to everyone, turn up game brightness to 100% in hdr settings.
GamingTech on youtube said it increases the maximum peak brightness. At 100% its still at around 400 nits, well below 800-1000 nits needed for proper HDR. So no point keeping it at 50% which is only 200 nits.
What. No. Don’t turn it up to 100. Why? You elevate the whole picture brightness. Enable dtm !Screenshots taken from various Alan Wake threads. That lake sunset is jaw dropping in HDR. Note to everyone, turn up game brightness to 100% in hdr settings.
I wouldn't listen to him. He just focuses on nits.
Lair still looks great!I'm watching an Avatar Frontiers of Pandora impressions video and bruh
Wtf are these PS3 era LODs?

Eh. I wouldnt call anything besides that one shot of the sky islands bad. it has its strong points and weak points. Im not sure how you looked at all this in the same video and say it looks very bad overall.
These graphics are so busy... like man. It looks great but I have the same issue as when looking at HFW. Alan Wake 2 can get very busy in forests too but well... forests are forestsEh.

This navi character model looks pretty good.
I agree it looks inconsistent. Night time especially looks like you are underwater with this bizarre hazy look that was not in the original trailers. but you said on the whole it looks very bad which i took an issue with.
its all PC footage. they said PC version will have rt shadows so thats what you are seeing here.
Yeah. I thought we were fighting along side fellow navi. This makes it look like your a one man army Doomguy style :/Wow, those mechs are made of papier-mâché? A few rounds and they're gone?

Those washed-out areas may be due to capturing problems.
Sounds on par with next gen so far then.
