I've only played about an hour and I've gotta say, I'm not a fan of the story at all and especially the voice acting, but it's hard to stop because it's so fucking clean!
Only game that makes my 1X fan spin up pretty hard. Can't say I have ever noticed it on any other games save for RDR2.
Yeah, I realized that when I fired up BTS tonight and saw the Unity and developer logos. I must not have been paying attention when the logos appeared when I launched it yesterday. :)Before the Storm was actually made by a different studio (Deck Nine) and on a different engine (Unity). That's why it looks a bit worse than Life is Strange 1, and a lot worse than Life is Strange 2 (both of which were made in Unreal Engine.)
Thanks, that's reassuring!Same here lol. The fans started to rev up when I played the game. It must be quite the taxing game surprisingly.
I remembered when I started my job @DONTNOD, I was so excited to finally see Digital Foundry take a look at our graphical improvements since Life Is Strange and comment on a game I've worked on. One Vampyr and Life Is Strange 2 later, still nothing...
My dreams have been shattered... :'(
Yeah, looks great! I went back to Before the Storm after this, and it was shocking how much the engine's improved in just three years. I just wish the facial animation quality kept up with the overall graphics and voice acting. Some of the emotional beats just didn't hit for me as a result.

I suppose BtS does look a tad worse than LiS1, the character models can look a bit too claylike when the lighting isn't great. The much better facial animation and greater use of motion capture makes it overall an upgrade over LiS1 to me. I'm excited to see what Deck Nine does next since they have their own motion/performance capture facility, and it seems like a bigger priority to them than Dontnod.Before the Storm was actually made by a different studio (Deck Nine) and on a different engine (Unity).

Here's an article on how Deck Nine's doing mo-cap during the pandemic, if you're interested:I suppose BtS does look a tad worse than LiS1, the character models can look a bit too clay like when the lighting isn't great.

I've been playing it at 1080p120 on my GTX 1070.
I never liked graphics of Dontnod's story driven games. They were like last gen, have these clunky animation wise and low quality hd assets.
Tell Me Why is obviously a big step up in texture quality department but I must say, this game is really beautiful (another step up after already nice LiS 2). The art design, environment, overall presentation. Its really beautiful even though it still sometimes feel like lower quality graphics game across most departments. I dont mind, I just hope they will work on details more through next gen.
Tell Me Why was made by a different team than the one that made the Life is Strange games. It was also lower budget (due to its shorter length.)I never liked graphics of Dontnod's story driven games. They were like last gen, have these clunky animation wise and low quality hd assets.

Which is C9:)? Full respect.Yeah, it's a combination of great art direction, environment design (a bit more simplistic with less post-processing) and a full 4K image. Looks really nice on my TV.
KS8000 actually 😄
I remember when KS8000 was the best option for us, gamers:) Currently rocking with Bravia 4K, but those LG OLEDs look super nice!
