The graphics nerd in me tells you guys to get this thing, its at the cutting edge of very very recently adopted lighting models, they scan all the materials they make for light response and a 3d representation of say, fabric, so when it's used in game, its almost perfect
The game does indeed look fairly dull as a game, but as something to study, be a learning experience - realise when th 'next get' implies - stronger graphics libraries, stronger and easier to make tools, and just the simple act of making textures with the relevant maps using cook-torrence lighting/surface attention and lighting them the right way.. thats basically as realistic as i can feasibly imagine (not necesarily the game itself but the technology maturing
Also worth bearing in mind that these kind of games are probs using the full use of dx11/openGL (I think ps4 are actually OpenGL sporting, but you will see things in this game (and others) that are just not possible in dx9, the library or the hardware that supports it. I've got a nice pile of dx11 bits of code, extensions to unity and it's really remarkable what games can achive with technologies like tesellation, computers and all that fun stuff. Expect graphics like this to continue and improve even despite the bar raised hugely, but its physically based lighting/shading flattering it all a great deal -
Tbf I'll probably get this. The combination of cracking visuals set in a steam punk world far outweighs the uninspiring gameplay. As long as the gameplay isn't bad I'll probably be happy. -
Bargain bin."Better than a tech demo. But mostly a tech demo for now. Exactly what we expected, crashes less and less. No multiplayer."

Steampunk though. Ergh. -
I'd like to order a bag of spuds, please. -
Here's a thing:

Very cinematic but looks great, nice to see a creepy section from it. Hopefully the gunplay is as good as the presentation.Gamertag: aaroncupboard (like the room where you keep towels)

I hope that's not a gears type make you walk slowly for five minutes thing, but it does indeed look ace. -
I believe that's exactly what that was. Also, the pseudo cut scene/playable/QTE sections worry me some what. Games need to steer away from that and just give full control.

The press triangle type parts in cutscenes are so completely pointless, and I'd much rather just a cutscene than a slow laboured forced walk. Pain in the arse. -
It seems to be the bane of many third person action games sadly. Even Naughty Dogs efforts are filled with silly tappy button in cut scene nonsense.
-
ND at least makes up for it with fully playable scenes, too. This looks to be doing the same, and that new footage is bloody good. When i eventually pick up a PS4 next year, The Order will be on my list. -
Lol.

He'll never make supervisor working at that speed.
The worst thing is how long it takes the beast to enter the room. He must be stocktaking. -

Well, yes, but that those techniques are entirely doable in new gen consoles is good news -

Gameplay can come later, it's mainly a good thing because now pc graphics will get a boost from before and the overall quality rise high, good fun for indies too, better tools means more, better, cheaper to produce art than before. I'm a sucker for purty thangs anyways

Pretty sure there'll be a decent game in there. I'm getting shades of The Last of Us from that demo, and that's some critically acclaimed shit."I didn't get it. BUUUUUUUUUUUT, you fucking do your thing." - Roujin

That looked very nice, but I do wonder if you were having any impact on the scene. I reckon it would have proceeded in the same manner if you didn't even fire a shot at the monster. I'd like to be able to influence things by how I perform, if I can score a headshot on it in that first shooty bit with the pistol and put the beast on the back foot instead of it going the way it did, that would be ace.
As it stands the only interactivity that mattered was the hit triangle to neck a shot bit, although if you pressed nowt he'd probably do it himself. -
It looked closer to Resident Evil than Resident Evil has recently. This could be a good thing.Town name: Downton - Name: Nick - Native Fruit: Apples
