It doesn’t even seem to have dynamic foliage. This is just wrong.
The vegetation is not static, it has its physical characteristics and reacts with the wind. Even the small grass fibers. These only don't react to the character's passing but I only remember one part of the game where you can see ferns or tall vegetation (a short section/puzzle).

That is to say, I don't think it is a technical limitation, the Studio has simply preferred to focus on other aspects because the vegetation in the game is limited to small grasses in 99% of the game.

That said, the game has great cloth and clothing physics, without any popping. Hair, even strands of a few hairs, have their own physical characteristics. And so remember you can move small stones in your path and these have their own physics.

Very cool to see small grass moving in the wind.

You do have to see it from certain angles though.

Details in this game are not in your face. Its all very realistic.

Not sure if Sony is getting some heat for the looks of this game. It's goddamn beautiful

But holy shit, it's a walking simulator. I could see this for the first game, since didn't have much promises, but this was so many years in the making...

Forbidden West is a visually more impressive game, but this looks good too.
Nah.. Hellblade looks better you need to see it in person at 4k/max settings,
DF:
Hellblade 2 is a defining moment in the evolution of real-time graphics".
(The Next Level in Real-Time Visuals)
- Character rendering sets new standards and nearly resembles movie sequences with actual actors."

animation and visuals is clearly better than Forbidden West.
