Curious to hear how covid affected them since IIRC they already worked remotely anyway.

His shit is production quality wtf? Depth of field and shit lmao.
Probably has been a factor yeah. The studio is made from people all over the world. So even before COVID a good setup was probably worth it.
Honestly. I didn't play this at launch simply because I was just not in the mood and it didn't hook me immediately, having played and loved the first one. But man, I am playing this now, two thirds down and man, what an incredible game. I know the game was praised, but this is one of the best games I have played in a while. The art, the music, the gameplay and the emotion the story and small storylines from sidequests delivers is fascinating. I am truly having an incredible time playing this game.
As a disclaimer i was a tiny bit involved around the edges here but its incredible to see how Moon squeeze every ounce on power out of the systems.
The sheer focus and work put in to optimisation is really eye opening, and the creative solutions and layers methods they have used are just so interesting.
And as a XSX and LG E9 owner I'm super happy a dev is putting in work to make my jump back into Ori an amazing experiance.

Glad it wasn't just me. The whole time I'm watching I was hoping to catch a glimpse of his set-up.
Very interesting interview, and agreed he's a great communicator. I particularly found this part interesting, in how he talks about how going to 120fps is not as simple as assuming 'Ok, we need double the performance', as when thinking that way people are sometimes confused why a game can run at 4k 60 has to drop down to lower than 1440p to reach 120.
Reason being is that when going to 4k, you can still keep many of your effects, such as depth of field, rendering at a lower res as there's no point to have those rendered at 4k when they're inherently blurry, but you can't make those same cutbacks with framerate or it's obvious (such as AC:Valhalla's 30fps flag animations).
edit: He's talking about the 120fps mode on the Series S in particular here.

Wow this was super professional! Good stuff all around, and nice hearing details about what is currently the best IP and game on the Xbox platform.
Finished the map 100% after the XSX purchase. It's an insanely pretty game now, zero stutter and an image quality that beats exactly everything out right now.

Fantastic video. It is great being able to listen to a developer talk about how everything is so personal and it was (120fps) an achievement that he and several other developers in their company wanted to achieve.
as long we use flat panels the drive towards higher is necessary to match aspect of crt fidelity we still can't offer. VR demands it. The push for 4k has had indirect benefits cause if you sacrifice that you can have 1440p 100fps plus.
Besides supersampling options for fps, syncing the image and seeing good engines has never been better.
the thirst for 440hz is real until storbing and pixel persistence are decent standards at high refreshrates. which isnt likely in my life despite the evolution towards it.
A really interesting and informative interview this one. Definitely worth finding the time to watch.
When he was explaining what and how they would lower the resolution of several of the layers because of DOF and how you wouldn't be able to tell, I said to myself "hmm VRS would make this a lot easier and more straight forward" only to hear him say towards the end that VRS is one of those features he is looking forward to as their layering system looks like a poor man's version of VRS lol.
Wish those kind of videos would be available as audio only somewhere since I don't have the time to sit and watch a 1:15h youtube video about stuff like this.
And afaik this isn't possible via youtube app on the phone (yt audio only - only if you have a premium sub or whatever?).

What are people thoughts using on their Series X? 6K@60fps or 4K@120fps?
I was toggling a bit back and forth yesterday for fun. 6K seems to bring up a little extra detail and I felt it's not the most obvious game with 120fps for me. I found it much more noitcable in 3D games. Maybe I just need to play it more rather than shortly test it.
