- Start date
I'm a grown adult I know these characters don't exist and are made up. I can't help but feel it's sad but then I can't help but feel that North looks very attractive
Oh man I've pretty much went dark for the game and the music is fucking excellent. Wow.
Incredible small vegetation rendering. They really sell the thickness of the short grass and mossy fields. So cool looking.
so this game's got GOOD ROCKS
someone make the thread. we already have a good grass and good snow threads

I was a hard pass on this game until this video but I might pick it up early next year for the visuals when its cheaper or when it is eventually on PS+ on the PS5.
A touch off topic but given its eventual release on PC, what are the odds of seeing an upgraded/remastered edition on PS5?
Great video, DS is an amazing looking title. Do not have much interest in the game outside the visuals and sound design but the thought of what HZD2 will look like is mouth watering.
I'm thinking there's a contribution model, ie Kojipro help extend the engine with thier superior artists + Kojima's high standards for animation and detail, all of which will go into building a more robust and capable engine so future Guerilla games would then benefit.
Go for it and I will happily contribute. Or if not maybe I will give it ago at some point. I think this game has fantastic rocks
I had
I didn't see anything mentioned elsewhere yet, and can't wait the video until I'm home from work, but how was the implementation of HDR in the game? It's usually seemed hit/miss between games, so was curious on how it turned out in DS.

I went ahead and pre-purchased the game, and then that "tar ocean" mechanic shown in the DF video cleared away any jitters. I'm positive this game will be loaded with "wow" moments, whether or not the story amounts to anything in the end.
Take me on one more wild ride, Hideo.

I did notice some low resolution environment textures as well as repeating textures/texture tiling in the distance. I wonder why DF didn't mention any of that, or maybe they are going to in other parts?
It also would have been great if they showcased the snow effects when they mentioned them in the video. I guess that footage was outside of the footage they were allowed to share today?

yeah noticed that too, but I think that is a fairly minor issue here. The level of geometry on the terrain is pretty much top tier. I think it is a bigger deal that there is such a good poly budget for terrain geometry.
The Playstation Blog already mentioned some time ago that the game automatically supersamples when hooked up to a 1080p TV.
i noticed too, both in some rocks or in some of sam's equipment in his suit when the video zoom on him.
tbh honest detroit and some other top tier game looks on par in term of polygonal models, faces are on par or slightly better in DS tho, especially on sam, cliff and the black masked guy chara.
still a gorgeous game overall.

I doubt there will be much extra work done beyond the usual PC additions, so don't think that will warrant an upgrade given that it will already be playable on PS5 anyway. Well actually aside from the obvious frame rate improvement. But sure they could patch in some of that for PS5?
I didn't have any interest in this game before as it looked boring af to me. This video changed that though, as it looks pretty incredible looking at it this way.
This looks fantastic,shame Sony hid base PS4 version for so long...I've been on tender hooks over here,lol.
The moss in this game is the best I've seen
Now there's a string of words I've never put together before

Depends on what you mean by that. Grass and water interact with player movement, and when larger enemies appear the entire map gets dynamically flooded, with structures appearing and disappearing under the waves, all with some level of fluid simulation going on, so I'd say it's pretty interactive

It does not, i'm afraid. Sorry.
Hopefully though, it'll be patched in soon.
