>play game set in medieval/fantasy times >all the roads have grass growing in a strip in the middle This is probably the smallest thing to get irritated by, but why do so many developers make this mistake? This is a road pattern made by cars and only cars. In the olden days the middle of the road would have been well trampled by horses pulling carts.
Seriously, look at any pre-1900 painting of dirt roads. They don't look like this.
It just looks better this way and it's more relatable.

>asking peasants to put tons and tons of rocks all over roads if they cant get horse carriages muh realism!
Jack Clark
Carts were typically pulled by only one horse.
Daniel Gomez
user, the wheel was invented about 5000 years ago.

>what are oxen
Jack Reed
fuck off normalfag, putting 400 hours into a game is nothing
Brody Thomas
DELID THIS
Adrian Johnson
It is if you're talking about AAA trite
Jaxson Edwards
why the hell would they worry about the quality of the roads if they had monsters to deal with? they probably wouldnt travel much except by carriage unless they had two horses or traveled in groups because of the monsters.
Leo Sullivan
Nothing wrong with AAA games, maybe get a different hobby if you dont enjoy videogames.
Joshua Roberts
The webm? It's from a surrealist movie called The Holy Mountain.
Luke Reed
Fuck off, casual
Jordan Phillips
Hardly a casual. I just enjoy a huge variety of games.
Isaac Sanders
Sounds like something a casual would say
Julian Brown
Maybe i'm just completely retarded but from the catalog this looked like a Gothic 2 screenshot
Jordan White
Carriages have wheels you fucking idiots
Adam Rodriguez
Roads did have ruts in them for the wheels. In ancient china carts had a mandatory standard width for this very purpose.
Mason Ramirez
So playing videogames is casual now? Got you, guess I will never be as cool as the user who doesnt play any videogames.
Alexander Smith
Yea Forums is for hating videogames, not playing them. fuck off and play videogames like a casual.
i know it's bait but horse hooves don't create flat, dead ground. wheels loaded with tons of shit do by grinding up anything living under them and turning them to dust. so even single-horse carriages would create the same pattern.
Logan Kelly
>Yea Forums is for hating videogames, not playing them Why can't people understand this? It's a very simple concept.
Jordan Stewart
I know, and they're not nearly as wide as a modern vehicle's wheels.
John Russell
I just happened to talk with CDPR people about this some time ago (inspired by that one autistic video about The Gladiator movie). They were aware that roads were not like that, but they did it for hyper-realism. Most people are tricked into thinking that it's more realistic than other games. Tak było kurwa.
Ethan Miller
>horse hooves don't create flat, dead ground. Of course they do. Why the fuck would you claim otherwise? If you have ever seen forest trails it's because people trampled the ground.
William Reyes
seems okay to me.why wouldn it have grass in the middle where horses arent walking and tires arent treading? you know the thing that kills the grass is being trampled right? not being walked near.
Jayden Adams
Carriages have four wheels. They were typically pulled by two horses. Additionally, a single horse has four legs which would naturally straddle the middle of the path in your image.
Sebastian Lee
you going to lay into r* next for similar issues in rdr2? the game has shrinking horse nuts but somehow they overlooked how grass never grows in the middle of a road according to the resident 4 chan expert.
Xavier Williams
As the horse walks in the middle it shits and fertilizes new grass
