Black Myth Wukong (4587*1920 DLDSR Ultrawide, DLSS, Path Tracing, Special K HDR, Reshade)
Nanite does sucha great job, the amount of detail on the ground is insane, and Path Tracing adds almost perfect lightning to it.
Only using Reshade it for a little sharpening as I removed the default sharpening which is way too strong.
Beat me to itDon’t need to imagine
that's true , partly
www.eurogamer.net
I am pretty sure that if 1 big developers focus in bring great graphics in current gen consoles they can easily do it but the saddest fact that many games in current gen machines looks worse than some games in my phone which have 2 tf gpu
that's true , partly
however there are devs such as our late RAD or Ninja Theory that prefer the cinematic experience.
Targeting 30fps early on allows them to not only efficienty allocate resources to achieve photorealistic visuals and animations
but also avoid that "soap opera" look and feel that 60fps creates in some games.
In my opinion there will always be room for [stable] 30fps experiences that aspire to be movie-like
Hollywood made some attempts to make 48, 60 and even 120 fps movies a norm in cinemas but ultimately failed
as the audience were used to that cinematic 24fps experience.
nevertheless, one could still argue that since games are far more interactive than movies,
the output latency [in the case of unstable 30fps implementations] could be as disorienting as higher fps in movies.
but that, in my opinion, is an overstatement that might be true of VR games, but not about non-VR games such as RDR2,
where latency was mostly due to the animation system rather than opting for 30fps.
at worst , such games are just sluggish, not headache-inducing or deal-breakers.
30fps is still my preference for the majority of single player experiences that target
photorealistic visuals and aim to push the boundaries of what is possible on a console
On a side note:
OUCH!!
2/5 ?
Star Wars Outlaws review - stripped-back Ubisoft formula is admirable yet doomed
Eurogamer's review of Star Wars Outlaws, a game which strips away a lot of Ubisoft open world clutter but in doing so, leaves too little left.
really hope the already downgraded visuals are not further downgraded
everything that Ubisoft touches seems to turn into excrement
otherwise, Massive is incredibly talented, at least the Massive I remember from The Division, they are just being mismanaged
are you playing the 30 fps mode?
well, this explains a lot lol
Honestly, ive never liked a massive game. they are just a B tier dev at best with an A tier tech team.
do you even have to ask me that?
But you fucking hate fromsoftdo you even have to ask me that?
30fps mode all day, i switched to performance for a few fights then switched back immediately to quality mode.
game is awesome. cannot wait to ee what more chinese devs do next gen.
and I think Game Science will be the next FromSoft
Nah. Turning on rt causes all kinds of frametime spikes even at a locked 30 fps and 720p internal resolution.
Yes I fucking hate from lol.But you fucking hate fromsoft
Let game science being game science, i don't want wukong 2 to look like a ps4 launch title with a "story" that i need to check on vatyvidia channel...
Yeah, rtx on cause the game to play worse even if the framerate remain kinda high.
Or get pc version, ur call in the end.
no. it still looks good, just those gifs look noticeably crispier.
Why would GTA6 be a reason? A CPU limited game like that will run at the same frame rate on both PS5 model's. You'll get a higher resolution and better effects I suppose.
for me, that's exactly the reason. Rockstar games always look great, even RDR2 looked glorious on my base PS4.
just an FYI. those leaks from MILD were independently confirmed as real by Tom Henderson and Digital Foundry's sources.
It will happen, no doubt. This game was being made before Metahumans was a thing in its current form.
Just for the sake of the games that still have to release before this gen end, i hope that some teams are gonna be able to do metahuman faces without using metahuman.
I'm not sure what happened to in-house engines this generation, but Unreal being so far ahead in terms of feature set has never happened before from what I recall. UE4 used to get close to the best of say, Sony first party but never really got there per see. Despite performance UE5+Nanite has delivered a tangible generational leap in every game it has starred on, meanwhile I'm here perplexed why SW Outlaws already looks like such an stepdown from Avatar... The lightning with RTXDI looks nice but the assets are just trash, I sincerely hope next gen Decima starting from DS2 will turn the tide because nothing makes sense anymore otherwise.
No lies detected unfortunately.
I'll never lose hope on the S tier teams until I see their games, but efforts like Black Myth are raising the bar real high.
It's gonna be hard to reach wukong quality in open world games with much more going on on screen at any given moment.
Metahumans...specifically the metahuman face rig isn't doing anything special..it's just a set of FACS...what makes metahuman good is that it's easy to setup and get going without the work it takes to get to that level of fidelity.
I wonder why mesh shaders didn't solve this when it was the whole point of them. Achieving higher geometric detail in any given scene of the game world by simultaneously LOD'ing/occluding what's not to be seen, the concept was envisioned for open world games first and foremost so I'm surprised we're still talking about this whole "open world will never look as good as linear" at all. These consoles must be seriously memory constrained, Cerny's bet better pay off.
Tbf, except for hb2, even wukong has "a lot" of questionable textures, specially on chapter 2, very uneven even maxed out on pc.
People also need to divorce themselves from this line of thinking, this is the old way of doing things. i.e you have X amount of budget for polygons and matericals and X amount of draw calls you can have before it starts punishing your gpu and affecting performance. That's why linear games look better than open world games, you can pack more geo into a smaller more defined space right? Nanite doesn't work that way...it's a different way of rendering...that's what makes it great. You don't have to worry about geometry drawcalls...so linear or open will have similar performance, plus it frustrum culls, occludes automatically, etc. plus if you wanted you can still use old school methods of optimization for it.
Nanite has nothing to do with textures...that's Virtual texturing which is like nanite for textures.
So how do you explain hb2 being super small and looking better than any other bigger game that use ue5?
Thing is virtual geometry still hasn't truly fulfilled that promise, considering the huge graphical delta between linear and open world current gen releases to date. My theory from many arbitrary sources is that hardware accelerated (Nanite is mostly software) mesh shaders/virtual geo usually eats up lots of VRAM, which these same people theorize are holding back adoption on current gen consoles. Cerny's SSD solution is still very young and few to no developers have worked around it this way, which is why I hope it pays off.
What games have come out that were open world? where are you seeing this Delta to make comparisons? all you have to do is go get Unreal 5 and see for yourself you don't need to wait for any games...if you know how to profile..use unreal insights..you can get all the numbers and metric yourself. the games that have come out have been semi-open world from smaller teams...besides Fortnite of course.
There hasn't been any truly open world UE5 games for starters, besides Fortnite and Epic made that one. The only notable mesh shader implementation outside of Epic relating to open world games is Snowdrop's, all you have to do is look at Outlaws to see that promise simply hasn't came true yet.
Because they have a great experienced team that works closely with epic. it's that simple...has nothing to do with it being smaller or larger in terms of world size. Just because you have lots of NPC's doesn't necessarily mean you its going to be heavier...as theirs lots of ways to optimize for that....any Npc thats out of range has their animations turned off, flat out turn them into cards at a distance..etc etc. Why don't you guys just test these things yourselves? i've been a lurker here for awhile..and i've always wondered...with all this debate y'all engage in...and knowledge you seem to posses...why not open up the engine and see for yourself? why do you need DF?
Fable is fully open world, made by extremely capable devs when it comes to graphic, made in ue5, and it looks nowhere as detailed as hb2.
