[Gonzito]

Holy Fucking shit. CHINA TAKING ZERO PRISONERS.

China is here and they are here to fucking stay.

They have an army of incredibly talented studios and they work FAST. Just banger after banger.

They are the future.

Japan out here giving us fucking ugly ass Ps3 looking games. The West taking 8 years to make a game.. Meanwhile China out here doing THIS in lightning speed and at 40 million dollar budgets.

TALENT

Holy shit

 

[Balducci30]

lol come on. you've been here long enough. you know the reasons behind the how and the why.

Guess it's still hard to believe the shift in priorities. I keep holding onto hope they're gonna start showing some insane visuals soon, but this gen is almost over so - I still feel ripped off

 

[SlimySnake]

God Bless Chinese and Korean developers.

And UE5.

 

[Msamy]

Chinese Developer's + UE5 = No limits

 

[Represent.]

These are most of these studios first games too.

Whatever happened to Phantom Blade Zero? Is that still coming out or vaporware?

EDIT: they dropped a new trailer 4 months ago and I never saw it.

holy fucking christ at these animations bruh.. I might change my Avatar to a chinese flag

 

[vpance]

While netease game look like this

Incredible. Very Uncharted-like cinematic action except amped up 100x.

Then no other word than fuc. them and fuc. Hirman hulst also all sony first party except ND should switch to UE5 fuc. Decima, I still have small hope For ND

The age of mindblowing Sony first party engines is dead. They all got caught with their pants down for 4 years faffing around.

 

[amigastar]

God Bless Chinese and Korean developers.

And UE5.

I see that Hair rendering is coming finally to the point where it looks good and complex.

 

[littlezoo]

screenshots look amazing!

 

[Msamy]

we are reaching cgi quality
UE5 is amazing this uncharted 4 cgi trailer

Sony games still have that toony ps4 lighting to them. Also a lack of details.

It is clear their engineering division is not up to date with competiton.

I am not sure why they didn't build a new engine from a blank slate ....

 

[roosnam1980]

that blood message trailer is nice , pre-rendered footage

 

[Msamy]

Your source it's pre rendered? Otherwise this is bullshit

 

[roosnam1980]

Your source it's pre rendered? Otherwise this is bullshit

the framerate of the footage is low . like 24 fps cinematics

 

[Luipadre]

Holy fucking shit. Another chinese UE5 masterpiece. Takes a shit all over these so called first party games. Look at the character models, the cinematics, the incredible lighting and detail. Setpieces and gameplay so cinematic it reminds me of sony exclusives. Only actually next gen. Just holy crap. Who needs Japan when China is literally going God mode.



Honestly, I think I might have consumed way too anti-china propaganda. been watching some of their amazing bridges, and architecture, and these guys arent just IP stealing, copy pasta losers the western media makes them out to be. They are doing some incredible things. The animation work in Wukong sold me, and i am seeing the same thing here. The animations are incredible and thats the one thing you cant copy pasta in UE5. These guys are really talented.

Crazy that they are this good on the first try while japanese studios with literally fifty year history are struggling to push visuals like this.

yeah this looks incredible, another eastern game clowning on western devs

 

[Msamy]

Yes, lol

 

[MidGenRefresh]

I've been out of the loop for a bit. Just wondering, is Hellblade 2 worth it for the graphics alone?

 

[SamuraiEdge]

It's a nice Unreal 5 technical showcase with some impressive mocap facial animations and atmosphere to enjoy for a few hours graphics whoring. Knock yourself out (if your machine is a good rig).

TALENT

While our fucking western studios are figuring out what pronoun to use for their main character, Chinese studios are putting in the work, and it shows. I'm ready for them to take over, they're incredible talented, no bullshit and they work fast.

 

[Msamy]

Definitely specially for the next update

 

[GymWolf]

I'm never gonna post a nintendo game again if these are the results

Lethal01 you're up as offcial nintendo uploader for the topic.

 

[CGNoire]

I agree fully with you and I do some programming on the side to learn Godot but also follow a ton of dev blogs or forums and it's so unusual to have terrain destruction that there's a ton of questions usually on how to even approach this because it throws everything you learned in school for meshing terrain and throws it in the bin.

I'm not even sure it is using a system like deep rock galactic.

Mesh shaders maybe?

Looks like low res voxel solution thats been around forever.

 

[CGNoire]

dude. it's voxels.
We are in ray tracing era. not comanche 3
AI is the future. of course not voxels.

yep. It's crazy

Voxels get used heavily behind the scenes for all sort of different techiques.

We aint getting high end fluid dynamic smoke or fire without voxels. Are a shit ton of them if you want it everywhere. Which is gonna devour a huge amount of memory going foward. Example : marvel1943 smoke and fire.

 

[Msamy]

Many sony fanboy attack any new game that looks better than sony first party studios bullshits ( they saying it's fake, pre rendered, will have problems not 60fps and other bullshits) they seem can't handle the current situation when they saw many games that looks better than any sony first party output lol, I used to be one of them last gen but this is gen I can't be like those who think death stranding 2 looks amazing while it looks last gen compared to GTA VI, fable, wukong, avatar, witcher 4, Hellblade 2, blood message, AC shadows, other ue5 titles lol even pragmata looks better than it

 

[alloush]

20. Not 30. Gamecube was more powerful than the Ps5 and had a lot of stunning titles.

Da hell is wrong witchu?

 

[SABRE220]

Its no surprise. Look at their cities, look at their architecture. Look how fast they build. They are way ahead of the game. They will lead the way next gen - book it

Wukong 2 is gonna be goddamn insane ant itll probably be ready in like 2-3 years.

Meanwhile, CORY BARLOG hasnt said a fucking peep about his new game in over 7 years.

Is this UE5?

 

[metareferential]

Holy shit at that Blood Message.

Unchina: the silk road.

 

[Kikorin]

All these chinese UE5 games looks incredible, the only problem is that they all looks the same. You can take one or the other and all seems basically the same game in different places. Probably because all UE5 games looks pretty similar too.

Once this pic showed up

Its unreal engine 5 alright.

 

[Sept Terrion Of Nothing]

Blood Message gave me the mix feeling of Uncharted and Assassin's Creed. As usual China is ramping up their efforts.

While our fucking western studios are figuring out what pronoun to use for their main character, Chinese studios are putting in the work, and it shows. I'm ready for them to take over, they're incredible talented, no bullshit and they work fast.

Also this. Chinese devs seem really focused on creating games not DEI/woke shit. Their talent speak themselves. Western devs should look themselves and think where did they take the wrong turn.

I always say: Games should be fun. Not your political agenda. Majority of western devs showing decayedness while eastern devs showing new and fresh breath to the gaming.

 

[GymWolf]

Unless you people are talking about the high fidelity of ue5 games, 2 games with heavy chinese influence are gonna look a bit similar in art design guys.

Do you have problems with every american city in any videogame looking similar?

That pic looks nothing like mafia or remnant 2 or stalker 2, guess why.

Pretty much. That's what top tier graphics with photo realistic art (not stylized) look like in 2025. Sony games are stuck with PS4 level graphics in 4k in the meantime...

 

[xxDeadlockxx]

It's incredible what the UE 5 can do when it's in good hands willing to show off its technical capabilities. I fell in love with this video.

 

[MidGenRefresh]

I feel the same. The Witcher IV is a prime example. It looks visually impressive, yet comes off as painfully generic. Replace Ciri with Senua and you could easily convince people it's a Hellblade DLC.

This obsession with cinematic realism in UE5 is stripping games of any distinct art style.

 

[rofif]

We will see when these shit actually comes out. The only game that held to the scrutiny was wukong

 

[Toots]

These guys are really talented.

And with a work ethic that would make the west heaviest crunchers blush.
Nothing comes by accident, if they are killing it with UE5 it is because they took their time to master it, and work three times harder than any western studio.

 

[CGNoire]

that blood message trailer is nice , pre-rendered footage

dude it skips and stutters multiple time during the trailer.....like badly even. It's realtime.........on PC.

 

[roosnam1980]

ok ,
i hope they show a gameplay deep dive of this

If those animations are legit, then this studio is the next Naughty Dog. I have no doubt that the games fidelity could look that good on a maxed out PC, but I'm highly skeptical of the smoothness of the gameplay. They dont have a release date or anything. I think best case scenario, this is a heavily edited trailer of what the studio hopes the game will look like

Don't forget with Black Myth Wukong. They showed off an amazing vertical slice of the game in 2020, but the game didn't release until 2024.

Chinese studios are definitely on the rise tho. Wu Chang Fallen Feathers releases next month, and it's got super positive hands-on previews. Phantom Blade Zero is 100% legit, and could be one of the best games releasing next year. I'm still highly skeptical of Chinese, and Asian studios in general, that have zero track record and only a trailer

 

[Alex11]

I've been out of the loop for a bit. Just wondering, is Hellblade 2 worth it for the graphics alone?

Even though I don't like it, didn't finish it, I'd say yes, just for what they've accomplished graphically, it's an experience more than a game.

 

[SlimySnake]

Then no other word than fuc. them and fuc. Hirman hulst also all sony first party except ND should switch to UE5 fuc. Decima, I still have small hope For ND

Honestly, the cutscenes look pretty good in Ghost of Yotei because they can fake the lighting in cutscenes by blasting each scene with dozens of extra light sources. just like DS2. It's the last gen lighitng outside of cutscenes and environment fidelity thats holding back Ghosts and Death Stranding 2.

Is this UE5?

 

[SlimySnake]

Welcome back MidGe......

nah, you shouldve stayed in self imposed exile.

Thanks mate, good addition to the discussion.

 

[MidGenRefresh]

Do you have problems with every american city in any videogame looking similar?

Compare Liberty City in GTA IV to Los Santos in V... completely different style and atmosphere. I love how unique GTA VI looks in the trailer and have high hopes for it. Of course, if all three were made in UE5, they'd probably end up looking exactly the same.
