Weird that the first party studios don't use the next gen features of the PS5 almost 5 years into the generation...Sony should have infinite geometry, RTGI and custom engines tailored to the PS5. First party studio games should look the best of any dev available tbh. Maybe Sony will deliver closer to PS6 launch...
I feel the same way, and I feel like nothing will change with PS6 - the way this generation has gone feels like the death knell of the platform. Devs are shipping games that aren't even optimized for THEIR OWN engine let alone the platform they're shipping on.
If you look at the upcoming Sony slate, you have Intergallactic PS6 remaster, Cory's new IP remaster (Which maybe cancelled any day now seeing as how they have gone 8 years without showing anything), Horizon 3 cross gen, and thats it.
Studios live on outside of their hardware, making them worth the extra investment. Hardware is tougher to justify like that - it's only as good as it needs to be to sell across its lifetime at mass market console prices. Matching PlayStation has been "good enough" since the Xbone - it's why the XSX|S even have an SSD in them. Having a real hardware advantage but also having a USD$150 price increase over your competitor would've be a tough sell internally, back when they even cared about hardware installations.
Yeah, this is basically where I'm at. The clincher though is the fact that younger gamers care less and less about these tentpole AAA experiences, so I think we're just going to start seeing less of them.
Greed and laziness is the number 1 issue IMO. The worlds greed levels are off the charts, the people who control the money are clamping down hard. Sony got greedy and cocky and just said "release the bare minimum". After seeing TLOU 2 on PS4, I know the PS5 can deliver something mind blowing.
What about first light ?
Add this to the list
Kinda ironic that a tablet has better tech than the home consoles...
Crack addict i guess.Everything looks cool but what happen to this lady? Is she a zombie
Uh yeah but its still in retarded 1st person.Indiana Jones DLC looks pretty good
I guarantee there will be tons of downgrades and nitpicks post release in this very thread.
Man, the amount of unique assets in these GTA 6 screens alone are mind boggling. Truly going to be a step forward in gaming.
Right but i think there is way too much hype and pressure on the game to save the industry from turning into live service cesspit of roblox, fortnite and cod even though the online component by far will be its biggest attraction for most people
I doubt hardcore gamers are waiting for gta6 to save gaming...
To me rdr2 trailer 1 seems have better lighting and shader quality in couple of shots comparing to trailer 2 era and later materials, but totally lackin in other aspects like cloud rendering still looks quite gta5 ish. Same as the lighting itself actually, some are quite impressive to look at, some still feel like a "gta 5 advanced retouched " if you know what I mean. The release version are mostly the same as trailer 2 onwards, consoles seems suffering from ssao downgrade after couple of online "updates" tho
Interesting. I figured it was using some kind of RTGI but had no confirmation until Msamy;s post below. Awesome stuff.
There is hero lighting on all these NPC models. It's clearly photoshopped.
I think it's definitely more probable for the game to not look 1:1 with the trailers to the latest damn pixel than the opposite.
Hero light? But they don't look as out of place as aloy that straight look like the white savior mother teresa in horizon, bitch radiate light in horizonThere is hero lighting on all these NPC models. It's clearly photoshopped.
The trailers are a different story since they have mostly only shown cutscenes and cutscenes typically look better than gameplay anyway.
Downgrades wouldn't surprise me but this screenshot seems like it's from a cutscene too.There is hero lighting on all these NPC models. It's clearly photoshopped.

Difference between TLOU2 and GTA6 is that they havent shown gameplay yet.
They said that half the trailers are made with ingame footage with a cinematic camera angle so your reasoning doesn't apply here, we are already seeing "gameplay".
Depends on what you mean by meeting their reveal trailers, NPC variety and interaction seemed way more dynamic in GTA V's reveal trailer compared to the release version of the game for example.
final game also didn't looked nearly as clean.
Is this what people consider the "no-downgrade track record" of rockstar?
Holy shit now i'm really worried
On console it will be 30fps and some low resolution like always.
Not sure how to respond to that, it seems like you haven't checked in what topic you are, we always talk about stuff that that average player doesn't even notice or care about, nobody is "really worried" or gonna lose any sleep, we are just talking about possible downgrades.
I'd argue the final game looked mostly better than the reveal trailer, by the time they showed gameplay, what we saw is pretty much what we got.final game also didn't looked nearly as clean.

TLOU2 was a noticeable downgrade, especially if you saw the E3 2018 trailer. If the ""downgrade"" ends up being just what we saw with GTA 5 (aka non-existent) that's not worth getting worked up over, just nerd shit at that point to me.
I don't disagree with you, but at the same time we have no idea of what we're looking at yet. For all we know we could be looking at cutscenes and they took advantage of that to make these bullshots.
Don't worry, I am joking lol. But yeah, like... At that point, the downgrade would be so minimal I doubt even many of us would care. That's the thing. TLOU2 had completely different skin rendering to what was advertised, especially on that axe NPC.
They said half the trailers are gameplay, they don't get to use the cutscene excuse.
