lol I wonder if you can stay in the air forever using a string of that combo. Looks cool!
While the outrage is silly, I do think companies shouldn't promote levels of graphical fidelity that they can't deliver on.
The puddles looked same to me (but smaller), the suit does look worse in the second screenshot.
Personally I just want to know if it plays as fun as it looks (if that sentence makes sense).
Shininess of Spider-Man's suit was reduced. This was mentioned by a dev during one of the live streams.
Lighting has changed, so the detail of the suit, puddle and walls would make the environment seem less detailed.
Puddles were changed\reduced. Since more puddles appear in open environments, it should be clear to people that the puddles in spider-man do not take up a lot of resources.
The scene looks different and that doesn't mean it was downgraded.
It seems like it's going to go on for awhile unless some respectable youtuber such as NX Gamer makes a video about this situation.

Cause morons hype up marketing material while other morons get a little too angsty over it being smoke and mirros.

If you genuinely cannot see the bias on this forum then I'm sorry. There is no reason to continue the conversation between us at that point. On topic it looks downgraded. Gonna buy anyways.
I enjoyed these lines via the IGN report on this ongoing controversy:
Redditors are arguing over whether or not the textures look worse in the release versions – but one thing everyone agrees on is that what once was a giant puddle is now a smaller puddle.
Whether or not consumers will let this lead to a buying decision is unknown.

Thats, thats not how 3d models....
You know what, im out, people not knowing what the fuck they are talking about and still think they can spot nonsense is staggering.
I dont even have a reason to defend this game, im not buying it, nor i have a ps4.
How many times do we have to go through this lol
Those things are still there. The shadows, the reflections, the puddles, the textures. All of it are in the game just fine even though that one scene makes it appear not. They did change the puddles and lighting for that scene but they didnt downgrade it. And we have proof from the current stuff they have shown.
Downgrades for performance are okay. But that's not what they did here.
Summer vacation is ending, soon people who bitch about this shit will have some homework to keep them busy
Loving the persecution complex going on right now. All the people who are mad about some perceived "Sony bias" coming out of the woodwork in this thread.
Of course, none of them are listing any good reasons that this is downgraded. And no, "the lighting changed" and "there are less puddles" are not good reasons.

Lets all say it together.
MODIFICATIONS TO LEVELS ARE NOT DOWNGRADES.
One more time.

I'd defend my co-workers integrity and hard work. Silence would embolden this nonsense.
When I first saw this image without the text I thought the top one was the release build.
But I am pretty sure it's just lighting changes.

I feel bad for developers of any game that has huge world because people have no idea how development works. How many tough calls should be made on some changes due to artistic or engineering choice.
Like remember the deal with Witcher 3 downgrade? Boy I wonder why CRPR is so scared of showing t the public Cuberpunk 2077 or how the demo of it is slapped with "work in progress" all over it

2018 looks much more like a suit made of cloth. Probably adjusted the PBR settings to make it look more accurate .
But muhhhhh shinyyyyy
please do, because I literally don't fucking care about a graphical "downgrade"
ever
Even ignoring the puddle, there's a very significant difference in the lighting, for sure.
Definite downgrade.

I do not mean to hate on games but out of the recent games I have played, Witcher 3 is the one that i am iffy on regarding the hair lol.
I think Horizon, God of War, Final Fantasy XV, Kingdom Hearts 3, and other games do it fine but there is something about it on Witcher 3 that makes me think it could be a lot better overall. Like it clashes with the other visuals.
Maybe i am used to seeing the PC version hairworks be different.
Come on, I don't think any of this justifies any outrage, but looking at those comparisons it's clearly downgraded, especially the suit.
I don't know, can't devs just say: "Yeah, we prioritized a stable framerate and sacrificed some bells and whistles for it."
Instead of just denying the obvious?
You know what, I'll take this as a positive. Every big game had it's dumb "controversy" before selling like hotcakes. This is just a sign that Spidey is gonna hit the big time.
... it is clearly different. Like, there is no denying the two images are different and the e3 one is the better looking and more detailed of the two.
To me this is no different than The Division looking different during e3 showings versus the full release.
But there's obviously a strong favour towards this game here, so any who criticise it are better off just going elsewhere.

I love how Era is interchangeably biased towards Sony or Nintendo, depending on how well it suits some posters' arguments. Which is it? Wait, no, don't answer that because the whole thing is pretty stupid. Hopefully I'll be able to snag an early copy of this game and try to to play as much as I can, wish I could get it right now because it's a long weekend in Peru and it'd have been amazing to be playing this right now.
That time of year again is it? How many Sony downgrade controversies have we had to endure now?
Well I think the main point is that Insomniac is flat out denying there was any downgrade. When there clearly way.
I was objective. I said looks downgraded from the evidence originally posted. Also said I'm buying regardless.
