Everytime i don't play wukong for a few month i forget how beautiful it is...
And the snake being a secret milf is only the cherry on top of the visual cake :messenger_tears_of_joy:
Well i guess i have time for one more cycle until thursday 19th :messenger_sunglasses:

Or should i say thrustday 19th ? Considering we will all be balls deep in Crimson Desert on this date.
 
I think Path Tracing should be the base for every game at some point. Then devs can post process, color correct and change stuff as they please to achieve their artistic vision.
its also animations, super detailed materials and physics on the individual pieces of armor, cg quality lighting, heavy other visual effects like CA you guys hate so much, etc.
 
Cheap'ish legacy rendering with very sparse RT usage. If not for RTGI it would look awful close to TW3's 2015 release version IMO.
if you look at the pro footage, it does look very much like it.

they are also hiding the base console footage which is using an even worse form of ray tracing according to the specs. Pro was using high and ultra high ray tracing, base consoles use medium.

CA?

But hyper realistic lighting will come from PT, and with that you can have destructible environments and realistic physics. No need to bake any lighting on textures!

Wukong is still arguably the second best looking game of the gen after HB2.

Maybe the best parts of re9 stole that second place but it still look better than 98% of other games.
 
RE9 finally accomplishes what I've been waiting for since REmake was released in 2002.
Pompous, photorealistic horror house environments, but now in real-time 3D.
I never want to leave the care center, ever... :messenger_smiling_hearts:

I still remember playing Frogger on a VCS 2600 on a tiny b/w CRT at my cousin's house in the 80s.
It's completely bonkers being able to experience the evolution of video game graphics over the last 40 years firsthand!
