I was never in the group expecting CGI visuals. I was in the group against those expecting PC ultra settings visuals.
have. did as soon as someone told me they were uploading
i do think that its still doing a lot more than what current gen consoles can do, but honestly, those massive generational leaps are just not there imo
people love to overreact though. someone says "its not a generational leap to me" and people go off into the deep end "SO YOURE SAYING IT LOOKS BAD?!?!"
I still remember the fucking hell moment from going with no texture filtering polygon warping low resolution of the PSX to the dreamcast
Nobody can convince me that the last few generations have been anywhere close to that
and thats ok
im still happy and all in on next gen

Horizon 2 looks better then anything announced or released today. DS remake and Ratchet and Clank look insane as well.
And this is early next gen staff.

This game is looking absurdly good for an early-gen title.
Wow, those games look great! Comparing Horizon to RDR2 shows some clear improvements in detail, animation, and lighting, but like many people are saying, the leaps keep getting smaller each generation, and that's apparent here. While there's a difference for sure, I'm not nearly as impressed with it as I was with Last of Us or Killzone: Shadowfall back in the day. That's nothing against the devs as they've clearly done a phenomenal job, it just means that we have to look harder to find less differences.
I dont know how you can say that. HZD looked like CG compared to RDR2. It looks so bland now. Only non impressive game shown was spider-man miles
Only spiderman was a launch game of the first party it seems
horizon 2 looks great, but it doesn't look like a generational leap to me. maybe that's a testament to how great GG did with the original game, but either way, i'm not wowed just yet.
what is this?

Hey, that's just my opinion and what I saw. Of course it's a step up, but it's not nearly the step up the PS3 was to PS4 and especially not anything earlier than that.
animated short movie by Blender Foundation to advertise Blender.
they make a number of these
PC - Ps3 Emulator vs. PS5 remake.
the jump seems more impressive than it is cause that first screenshot looks AWFUL doesn't look like a ps3 game at all, more like a ps2 game in HD.
I dunno, I think a lot of the games looked incredible. The micro-detail in Horizon 2 and Ratchet was really impressive.

Spiderman was one of the better looking games showed to me. RE8 looked bad to me tbh....
I thought both looked amazing. Just that back when first shown Killzone SF and The Order 1886 you had to tell people that they were not CGI trailers and they would still refuse to believe it.
Maybe Sony should've had a 4K high bitrate stream if they wanted to show the games like that.
it honestly doesn't matter at this point we can see the 4k videos and the console is still months away. I think you all over think these first impressions alone.
I don't know maybe I'll have to see more but besides character model everything looked last gen. RE8 is obvious as it is cross gen. This is why I am worried about Xbox exclusive
It's tasty isn't it?
The stylised games were fucking offline cgi and horizon looked immense so it's time say it, fuck your toy story and toy story 2, monsters inc 1 and incredibles 1, gaming has jumped to wall e levels of stylised visuals, on year one of the new console generation. We couldn't even match toy story 1 at the end of last gen. Incredible. Fully expect insomniac to 'handshake' the likes of toy story 3 on the sequel to the new rachet and clank once they fully get to grips with the ray tracing and real time global illumination mid gen.
The jump is exactly what I wanted and damn happy it will jump as the gen goes on.
Didn't give a shit about RTX until the next gen consoles were out about ray tracing, even though it is the future indeed, and thanks to them we will get ray tracing across the board on cheap and expensive cards alike. Now I give a shit because my wallet won't cry for the ray tracing goodness on pc by next year. GT7 ray traced reflections were utterly tantalising in the snippets we saw. The GI looked stunning too on the flyover.
The games come alive and show off the leap something fierce in the higher quality 4K uploads and Ive watched R&C, horizon 2, GT7, demon souls trailers multiple times now.
It is also welcomed that the whole thing is more honest than last gen. It is better to get trailers that look like the actual games than stuff like Deep Down. Hopefully means we will leave behind fake trailers that look impossibly good.
This is what I expected and wanted
please zoom in. Maximum. The details are insane. Every hair. Every little things. Wow
i think that the biggest problem with this new gen is that while overall graphics will be obviously better the real difference will be in things you don't see as easily in trailers or screenshots. Like instant loading, higher framerates, better AI, a lot more physics on the screen etc. Essentially stuff done by way faster SSD (compared to old HDDs on this gen) and state of art CPU (compared to laptop CPUs of this gen).

The gt7 trailer thread has a flyover gif of time fast forwarding, to me it looks like Real time global illumination. Or a very close approximation of it.
what, no. it's a prerendered movie. my point was Kena looks very similar to to

Ratchet looks fucking ridiculous
Woah
seeing the videos of the reveal I think that effects ( smoke, explosions, fire, particle in general ) were a bit underwhelming graphically.
i was hoping a bit more evolution in this aspect compared to ps4 games.
what you guys think?
i thought that the underwater segment in horizon trailer looked a lot like the underwater scenes in uncharted 4.

There's a lot of tight shots, visually busy scenes and heavy dof in the Spider-Man MM trailer. Even the YT 4K trailer is full of compression artefacts too. Can barely make anything out, not a great trailer to demonstrate it imo..
Horizon made me giddy though....

Thought you meant that but was not 100%.
Not that I can see yet unfortunately, or a very low RT quality setting. But all the trailers are of old builds and the game devs are all first timers grappling with this bevy of new tech.
I'm waiting for deeper dives of gt7. Only because that game should indicate of Sony first party devs have jumped on the RTX GI train.
Horizon wasn't as impressive as I was hoping. There's a clear step up in fidelity in many areas, but there's also a lot that looks "last gen". The character rendering in particular doesn't look like a drastic boost. I think the Hellblade 2 trailer looked better, to be honest.
