Cherno takes a look at the Halo Infinite gameplay trailer (not the full demo) and shares his thoughts.

He's not impressed at all.

The games running on a PC

OOF he was unimpressed is an understatement
He didn't like it at all
He thought it looking like a good current gen game and that was generous

I don't think it's his fault that he thinks the game is running on Xbox, that's what the assumption was before that event.

Well that was a brutal watch.

Seems he was trying to look for RT in the game, but not his fault he's not aware that it's a patch after the game releases.

He corrects himself in the comments. He doesn't do research before watching a video so it's a raw reaction. I think most people assumed that it was on Xbox before finding out that it wasn't.
Its a bit weird that we havent seen a single next gen or cross gen game running on xsx 4 months from launch. Only few backward compatible games.

I do agree that visually I kinda expected more from Halo.

As a sidenote: Some of the comments there being like "atleast he is honest unlike DF" made me cringe though. But that's on me for reading YT comments.

Well he is right. It looks like current gen game and even that is generous.

I see many people saying "But it is full 4K and 60 FPS open world!"


So what? It is running on 12 tflop machine. Any current gen openworld game has better graphics and they could also run 60 FPS on Series X.

Gears 5 isn't full open world, but it is already running almost 4K and 60 FPS and it looks miles better than HI.

From what we know it's running in a PC. Not even the XSX. Don't know what the implications are other than it might look better on the XSX

Yup, I think we all agree it looks average for a current gen game.

Does he mention 60FPS though, I'm sure i remember he has mentioned how difficult it is to have a game running at a 16ms 60 FPS clip before. Wonder if he touches on that here.

I'm currently at work so can't watch.

And this trailer was all of the cherry picked parts by whoever put the trailer together. I want him to examine the gameplay demo now.

If Cherno doesn't like it then that's a major concern for Halo infinite...

P.s who's Cherno?

A game engine dev that worked at EA (on the Frostbite team IIRC) that sometimes reacts to trailers, especially currently due to next gen coming up and him being curious.

He is no one you have to know, but I thought I would answer your question :p

I can't watch while at work but is he still going in blind with these videos? If so he really ought to give them watch beforehand. With that Ratchet video he missed loads details.

Had no idea the demo was running off a pc.

Thanks for the info, I've never heard of him before.

Should just update the thread title to say "game engine dev" instead of Cherno or this will be a very predictable thread.

Also, that was the most ruthless reaction I've seen. Damn.

It DOES -LOOK- fairly average for a current gen game.
Add 4k (albiet with VRS so not full native) and 60 fps and it's out of reach of current games. But his style of analysis with freeze framing and looking at the actual technologies applied, it DOES look average for a current gen game. Not even remotely close to the best looking out there.
And the jump from current to next gen shouldn't be about taking an average current gen game and doubling the framerate.

User warned: Thread whining
Why is it we have a Cherno thread for every reaction? I know he's worked on an engine for EA but does that mean he's somehow an industry expert on graphics rendering? I'm not so sure. He's not some Tim Sweeney or John Carmack.

Yeah I'm dissapointed as hell..



Especially when looking back at the first 2018 Slipspace Engine Trailer.


Here's to hoping they make huge strides.

So whats the point of this?

A C++ programmer and Playstation fan slamming one of MS's crossgen titles? Another thread to provide a dumping ground for non constructive criticism and drive by shitting.

I am not saying he is wrong, but people just love to beat something into the ground here.

He's not really.
He's worked for a few years on mobile games for EA and then spent a short time as a junior on the Frostbite tech, but that's about it.
Multiple of his videos show a fairly basic (and often wrong) understanding of graphics in fact.
But you cannot say something like that in here, like with DF.

An uninformed reactionary YouTuber? Well I'll be damned, these reaction videos on the platform are usually thoroughly researched and totally not looking to ride the wave of clickbait reactions. /s

He knows alot more than you and to be able to correctly determine exactly what's going on in realtime just based on a trailer is difficult.
