If you think that, fine.
But are you going to look at this
and tell me it looks as good as this?
Honestly, critique that Halo footage and tell me you think the skin/animation/facial detail is phenomenal let alone close to Death Stranding.
Both sets of footage are from cutscenes and the difference is
still staggering, and you can say "it's just cutscenes!" all you want but both are supposedly in-engine so it's not unfair to compare them.
I'm even willing to say Halo doesn't look as good but since it's 60fps it's acceptable that it took a hit graphically, fair enough.
But I defy anyone, based on the footage we have so far, to say DS looks worse, let alone that Halo looks better.
Also the talk of 'waxy' looking skin is bullshit, Mass Effect has waxy skin, Death Stranding doesn't.
