Graphics at this point don't need to really evolve anymore, hell there's more than a few 6th gen titles that hold up today thanks to their style.
Games should really be focusing on other shit that'll improve the overall experience.

The way the trees shimmer in TW3 especially in the area to the north is incredible. A real shame about the old lightning engine though, RDR2 shows just how good an impressive lighting engine can be.

I just like clarity over blurriness.

I'm talking about graphical fidelity.

It's equally as impressive, physically based rendering says hello, not that any of you Yea Forums brainlet consolefags would know what that is

They have, but we've also hit the point of diminishing returns with the current method of Raster Rendering.
The only way to jump ahead again is to swap to Ray Tracing, but even nvidia's "RTX" isn't quite there yet since it's a mix of raster and ray.

How do random modders manage to make better water, skin, grass, etc. than professional developers?

>Posts a modded game

RDR2 is still the best looking game to date

So, this is the power of the PS4, why does the left look so much better?

OWO WHAT MOD IS THIS??

Random modders don't have to worry about making it run on low end machines or consoles.

has to be

Some of the skin textures in AAA games are of the same resolution that you'd find in Skryim mods (assuming you don't download the super high res ones), but they still look like garbage apart from the face.

There are probably a dozen games that look better than RDR2.

They don't. What you see in the .webm are very specific settings that only look good in specific conditions. If you used his setup and then, say, went indoors or whatever, it would look absolutely terrible.

it's fucking awesome dude. as someone who's main platform is the PC it saddens me that the most beautiful game from this gen is a console exclusive.
speaks volumes about tech x artistry.
it's even more impressive when you realize TW3 barely sustains 30fps in the middle of the woods, yet RDR2 only goes down when you're in towns.

working on fewer things at a time/ not having to worry about licensing/ greater experience

I've modded Skyrim countless times, there are plenty of mods to make interiors look amazing.
That's not what I mean though, just specific things such as the way light interacts with the skin.
Makes sense not to bother with small things, but skin and water is pretty major.

Look at all those non-interactive plants and trees

loved that game, shame it'll never get a sequel

RDR is a pretty fantastic looking game on it's own right. Even more impressive is the 4K version on that stupid X console. Love to play it again on it but not dropping $700 on a console with NO GAEMS. RDR2 feels very similar but they dropped a very impressive lighting engine on top and amped up volumetric fog and weather effects to 11.

They care.

Skyrim does look like shit most of the time(mainly because of the base Bethesda made) but some assets are indeed of a higher quality than you'll find in actual games.

Modders are often producing visuals that are on the bleeding edge of things, and generally they use GTA or TES games to show them off. Ambient occlusion, high-res textures, depth of field, lens flares, film grain, cinematic tonemapping, various AA techniques, and other effects were all done before and better via mods than in AAA games.

i dont even have RDR2 but you sound like such a faggot. RDR2 is a pretty game. Just because it's not on PC where it would look prettier no doubt, doesn't mean it's not a pretty game.

Metro Exodus is probably the best looking game out right now. Metro is always known for it's unbeatable lighting. It's the first to apply RTX properly too

>But to say RDR2 isn't absolutely gorgeous is downright bad taste.
It CAN look gorgeous, problem is a lot of the times it looks like absolute dogshit due to poor texture quality and terrible lighting a lot of the time.

but the textures on rdr2 marstons face are quite obviously higher resolution
what are you on, user?

>poor texture quality
A lot of that is to do with the upscaling method used on the PS4 Pro which is where majority of people are playing it on. TAA + poorly implemented checkerboarding makes textures blurry in sections where it can't reproduce the texture data correctly. Consoles running it natively don't have this issue, aka PS4 and Xbox X.
>terrible lighting a lot
Outside of a few cases not really.

what bothers me more than graphics is that the system requirments increasing every passing year for even the simplest games

Why the hell are you getting mad?

which one?

RDR2 looks good but to pretend it looks better than say, Arkham Knight, is bullshit. It tries something similar in using smart art direction to kinda cover the parts where realism is "lacking" but Arkham Knight has infinitely better graphics and a more concise art direction, besides using tricks other than "instagram filter fog" to hide not so well-done places.
Also, one thing that the Arkham series as a whole has that very few games use well is all the lightning and scenery composition which almost forces you to focus on the highlights and ignore the less worked on parts.
But yeah, that game is like 4 years old and I still haven't seen anything that looks better, I'm holding my hopes for RDR2 on the PC but I just don't like R* games from a gameplay perspective.

here's a little tip for ya pal and you can have this one for free, don't sweat it
You can't.

It's about time you realize that high resolutions don't automatically bring good textures. There are literally PS2 games with better texture work than modern games which generally default at 1k textures.

I have yet to see a good example of good textures in this game, care to show me some?

>OLD GOOD NEW BAD

Running it on a PS4 Pro myself so yeah textures rarely ever look good on my machine.

That's because you got close enough to reality where its harder to see the difference between previous steps.

Consider pic related.

You want to get to a circle by using regular polygons, even though you are well aware its impossible to get to an actual circle (because it has infinite points) you are trying to get the closest possible to one. You start with the shape with fewer points, the triangle, then you go up a point one by one until you get the closest possible to a full circle.
You will notice that the more points the shape gets, the harder it is to distinguish it from the previous step.

Now how can this relate to graphics in video games? You can say the circle represents reality, which is also impossible to represent but we try to get the closest we can in own games graphically. We realise that the difference between the ps1 era to ps2 are pretty big compared to the difference between ps3 and ps4, and will be less and less noticable because we are getting closer to reality.

This doesn't mean games now look perfect though, a 100 point polygon can look circleish but its nowhere close to infinite.

Car games are cheating, all they need to focus on is the car model
Also look at how shitty the floor texture is, then check the tree and what's behind. Once you stop looking at how shiny that model is you'll notice the shortcomings

Horizon games are focusing on everything though.

>all they need to focus on is the car model
"Car games" have to do more with less. They can't just cram the environments full of clutter to overwhelm the eyes and make it look "good". Horizon 4 is pretty ufcking ugly though, I don't know why he thought that picture was a good example.

You're proving me right. Since the dawn of console wars, racing games were used as propaganda to see who can cram the most polygons on a rim

Depends on the game obviously, but to an extent I agree. I was playing Dynasty Warriors 8 and certain aspects look worse than they did in DW4. I don't mind the graphics being bad in a game like Dynasty Warriors, but if a Total War game looks like shit then it would severely affect my enjoyment because the visual spectacle is a lot of the appeal to me. If games still just looked like Half Life 2 10 years from now, or even like still looked like Half Life, I wouldn't be upset so long as the extra resources not spent on unnecessary graphical tuning and baubles went into making real engaging substantial gameplay.

Yes, and I don't get why people like it. There's an ugly vignette filter and it looks like the colors were manipulated in LDR, leading to unnaturally gray looking skies (despite there being bloom everywhere). It's also likely the reason their HDR implementation is broken.

I'm sure there's a pretty game underneath all the post processing garbage, but as it is RDR2 is one of the most videogame-y looking games to release in the last 5 years.

I'm shy, don't do this

TESVI and Starfield will look like utter ass compared to this game

Seriously Bethesda what the actual fuck is this?

so its not the graphics thats the problem. its the efficiency with the hardware to use said graphics.

Better than fuckin Lincoln clay by a long shot. He literally has no development and is just a stonefaced murder machine.

And all the graphical improvement mods will be creation club only lel

God, nothing gets me harder than good lighting. This is what the devs should be focusing on now. Not using all the extra power to add REAL HAIR FOLLACLES AND DEAD SKIN SHEDDING ACTION, but better lighting, weather and other effects.

We've long hit the point where the main deciding factor for "good graphics" is the artistic capability of the creators rather than tech used. That being said, the next step in graphics requires absolutely silly levels of hardware.

exactly the point.
The only difference between last gen and this gen is the exorbitant amount of bloom and higher resolutions. If developers stopped focusing on higher resolutions and for once used 1080p as a standard then games would actually appear better over more time spent developing graphical tools rather than more pixels in a jpeg.

have a look at this then

They are always holding back. The first gen 7nm will probably have a small die on purpose, then in RTX 4080 Ti they will increase it to the max.

That's cheating. Even a 10 years old mid-range PC can do some very pretty screenshots in photomode

Kiryu is in and out of the Yakuza like a yoyo though. So not really a fair comparison.

also ps3 exclusives at that time were great
uncharted 2 which came out later that year was gorgeous(that was when naughty dog still made games and not shitty soap operas)
they probably had deadlines imposed on them and the passion was lost

So you're just talking about graphics? You're still wrong.

I hate when they overuse motion blur and depth of field. I know that it's to save some processing power (and to hide parts that would look bad) but still

i'm not the same person

Then don't butt into random conversations to derail them.

This makes me sad. I remember after seeing the Cryengine demos that we were only a few years away from literal photorealism.

i just mentioned it because i thought uncharted 2 was looking nice and it came out the same year as killzone 2
like in a sense "video games looked better back then"

Are you drunk?

nope
are you?

The problem is that every game dev thinks technology is the way to look good. In these days, it's not. It's style, creativity, and artistic talent. A truly good looking game should continue to look good in ten years.

I don't believe you.

whatever then
i ain't speaking on it no more

Pretty sure that is from the single player, might be in the online map as well, but you'd never notice cause of all the other shit going on constantly

That's good, I was sick of you bringing up random things.

Graphics don’t matter, gameplay does which companies can’t seem to figure out either outside of a few.

RDR2 is better simply because of the pose. looks like a real cowboy instead of a creepy rockstar model.

Only neo-Yea Forums thinks otherwise

Yap. Something about "new tech" in graphics always HAVING to deploy before it's _ready_, before current GPU are capable of rendering it effectively. aka a game like RDR being able to take full advantage of current-gen tech (to its "fullest"), vs. RDR2 having to make compromises to look basically good by "today's standards". Why is the video game industry like this?

>Unrelated tangent question:
Disregarding graphics, which Mafia has a better/more comfy/more kino atmosphere: 2 or 3? I've only played the demo for 3 and the gameplay was pretty meh imo. 2 seems like it has a more comfy game-vibe though, maybe it's the period it's set in? But especially the winter scenarios.
