I bet you post goldfaces wearing the sony beanie and fat cryjaks wearing fedoras with the Steam logo as well. God of War looks like a fucking badly made Skyrim mod, don't delude yourself.

If the game has completely dynamic shadows then explain this Why is there no shadows on the plates and bowls where the light isn't even going to anymore?

Main points are
>Xbox said native resolution would be 4K, game uses dynamic resolution.
>Shooting environmental objects either does nothing or has them go through the floor
>Lighting is supposed to be dynamic, but light sources don't correspond to shadows or light emitting objects. Walking through water doesn't change the light textures or show any kind of water scatter effect
Smoke trails disappear after a very short distance
>Bullet holes disappear after a few seconds
>Certain surfaces don't register bullets
>A lot of work was put into getting snow track deformation to work, but you don't leave wet footprints when you come out of water and your character doesn't have a wet texture after being in water
>Reflections are generic textures
>Plants don't react to you walking through them, but they did in previous games
>Enemy a.i. can be janky

Basically it's disingenuous to praise the detail. You could consider this nit-picky, but a lot of small things can add up.

>Rap intro

>Nigah thrown out in the first paragraph

Honestly, the only games I've seen this in, where it's not a gameplay mechanic, are the division games, and even then they flicker back on after being shot out.

That's not dynamic, that's static movement pretending to be dynamic.

Yeah getting rid of dynamic shadows and global illumination sure makes games look better

The thing is, none of this disputes anything DF said at all. This video is stupid.

>Oh no digital foundry said this shadow is dynamic but I found a case where it isn't so the game sucks now nobody should play it!!

Imagine seething so hard over this game because its reviewing well and getting general good feedback all around that you spend like 5 hours of your life making such a pointless video talking about how the game sucks and nobody should play it because of a fucking shadow.

Gears 5 is on an 86 and at an 8.8 score which is a colossal leap in positive user feedback from gears 4. People are actually enjoying this game way more than 4. If you want to talk about critic reviews then this game is 1 (ONE) point off spiderman so either this game is shit and spiderman is also shit for being in the same bracket or they're both good games and have good user scores because people are actually enjoying it.

If you mean scripted movement then yes (expect for the enemies) but it’s an open world game and the level of detail is quite high what’s an open world game with “dynamic movement”

You're a special kind of stupid, huh? Del is lit fine.

Yea, DF stopped being worthwhile when they stopped being focused on just reporting the facts (resolution and framerates) and started dicksucking games' technology and talking about other meaningless shit.
These guys said Astral Chain runs at a constant 30 FPS and it's pretty fucking obvious that they only played the first 30 minutes, considering the game's framerate goes to SHIT in some of the later cases.
Hell, the Grand Plaza itself in file 8 has tons of drops into the mid-low 20s.

So I should never touch it then because of some shadow?

ACG pulls the same shit all the time. 30 minute video going into great detail about how great a game is, with just a few conspicuously tiny gripes. They never criticize anything, but just recommend a buy at the end of a long-winded verbal blowjob to the game.

youtube.com/watch?v=N9ZUq8nSDBE

You shouldn't touch it because it's a dead franchise and the gameplay loop is still the same.

Reminds me of when Breath of the Wild was new and they were so ridiculously wrong with their initial video that they had to make not one but two follow up videos to correct some of the outright lies / inaccuracies that they said.

>the game has no aa whatsoever what a joke!
>o-oh wait sorry it does, and it actually several kinds of aa running in tandem which is how the trees and grass can stay sharp even in the distance. Haha, w-we were just joking in our initial video.
>the game has no reflections. As expected from nintendo.
>w-wait. It does have reflections? And real reflections at that, that actually reflects the surrounding geometry relative to the perspective and everything. Y-yeah well of course. It's a flagship title after all.
Like seriously. They were wrong about the resolution too initially.

Didn't stop people from taking them seriously though.

They are standing right below a lightbulb so they should be bright instead of almost pitch black, especially since the ground they're standing on the walls next to them are break as hell too you dumb retard.

DF were extremely dishonest about Gears 5 because it's a dull looking game that manages to make UE4 look like UE3 with PBR textures. but the nig video doesn't help one bit. nitpicking random shit isn't refuting DF's insincere praise.
lighting, shadows and reflections are all sub-par for a game in 2019. character models are pretty good but not better than in the previous game as far as I can tell. the only praise they even half-way deserve is for going 60 fps when they could have kep the 30 cap and only increased the res for the X. but changing the framerate cap is one line of code unless you come from the Bethesda / From Soft school of programming and tied your physics to your framerate. meanwhile making better assets would be extra work.

Gears was never good as a game but the third game was impressive as a late tech demo for the Xbox 360. this new one looks like higher res assets in the same engine. they even stuck with the blurry baked shadows which by now really stand out as ugly. I can't think of any other game that still displays baked shadows up close. generally there's two approaches to shadows now: high resolution real-time shadows up close and low res baked shadows in the distance (if your sun / moon doesn't move) and fully real-time (for open world games). using baked shadows exclusively is a dead-end approach that I thought was abandoned after last-gen.

So I shouldn't touch it because you think the franchise is dead but have no valid criticism of the actual gameplay experience or multiplayer?

*bright, fuck

They clearly fucking aren't though. Your character and Kait are both closer to the camera than that bulb is. You can see Kait's fucking shadow coming toward the camera on the ground, moron.

Why are new games so much lazier than old games?

I knew they were scraping the barrel when they were trying to talk up motion blur.

Seethe more, Xniggie.

They're coasting off name recognition and old assets. They take the core consumer base for granted and to pull in new buyers they tack on some meaningless new feature, include a celebrity cameo and take the plot in a "bold new direction".

second guy here, if you're asking about console shooters I only rate Halo 1 - 3. Battlefield Bad Company was good but not great. third person shooters have never been good on consoles. on PC Max Payne was good, that's the only non-terrible third person shooter I can even think of. the very concept of putting the playable character on screen and moving the camera further away from the gun in a game that's all about AIMING THE GUN speaks of the style over substance philosophy of the game designers. why invite problems like being able to see around cover when you could just not? the only valid reason for third person is platforming, and most third person shooters ironically feature little to no platforming. the original four Tomb Raider games were good platformers but not really shooters. that's where third person makes sense.

fake lighting like this can be extremely convincing. I think they just screwed up with the way they placed the probes or they baked the probes in an earlier, darker version of the corridor and forgot to redo them for the final, brighter version.

it's just a rushed hack job of a game, like all games post 2005.

Women

get a different hobby. You're done gaming.

>lazier

This game had 2.5 years development time and they managed to craft a much bigger world and completely re design the shooting mechanics in that time. Obviously people won't actually play the game to notice these improvements but they will watch some dumbass youtuber who calls the game shit because of a shadow he found and then leech off that. If you want an example of a lazy game look at fucking days gone. 7 fucking years in development and we got a game with less depth than fucking assassins creed which is the most bare bones fucking open world game.

are you disagreeing with anything I said?

It has the most interactive and indestructible environments of any gears games to date and multiplied by like 1000x. There's literally a whole act which is in this ice area and there's fucking loads of destruction where even the fucking wind can destroy your cover or the enemies can shoot at it and it flakes away piece by piece. You clearly have never played the game.

Spiderman is a great game
As is gears
As is astral chain
They all are within 1 score of each other as well. 3 great games. Don't know why it's so hard for people to admit other games are good. Fuck fanboys.

Nothing is wrong with them, but there are plenty of great first and third person shooters on consoles. Hell, the new Tomb Raider games are the 3 best ones in the series.

Their job is to look at games from a technical perspective, which they do.

So sonyggger business as usual? It's okay when you faggots do it then?

Because MS paid them. Gears 5 has shit graphics and is a garbage game. They only praised it because they got money to do so.

You aren't so retarded as to think PC games are immune from these types of decisions?

Basically this, they post on retardera too

All of Gears 5's reviews were paid. IGN, Digital Foundry, and even Skill Up, ACG, and Worth a Buy all praised it and said basically the same shit. It's not a good game at all and completely unremarkable in terms of graphics, yet they all called it the best looking game ever. MS must have paid very generously for this one.

oh no i can actually see what's happening

im saying the game would have ran at 60fps on pc regardless of interactive environment or not

got payed off by MS

Are you blind?

>Paid reviews

Every time I look at the ground modeling of a modern console exclusive I cry a little bit. They even try to hide it by covering the entire thing in generic 3d grass sprites and such. All they have to do is round out some of the fucking edges, use a texture that wasn't recycled from the N64, and give an actual appearance of depth. I mean, even fucking black ops could do it.

The game is a 6/10 at best, so yes, absolutely paid reviews here.

That's a lot of scenes in this game. Like in the snow map when you open this one gate and it shows a view of a huge mountain in the distance, it was so pixelated and grainy that it looked like a shitty cardboard cutout image pasted into the scene. This game unironically has the worst graphics of the entire year, I haven't been this convinced of paid reviews since IGN's Assassin's Creed Odyssey review.

Aside from the fact that the lighting is really jarring, in my experience overdone sharpening always creates kind of this paper cut-out look like that.

It looks fine.

Yeah this retard maxed out the sharpening slider

LOW
TIER GOD

The solution is to stop exclusivity. No exclusivity, no reason for consolewars bullshit.

Maxing it out would be 30, default setting was 6, but since you literally can't turn off the TAA it's set to 15. It's far from oversharpened.

That's never going to happen because if it did consoles that don't fill a niche would die out, so the makes of those consoles won't give up exclusivity

Okay, you do you, just saying that without even knowing the settings it looks way too sharpened to me.

If it doesn’t serve a gameplay purpose for a plate to break for the sake of breaking, then who the fuck cares? I’d rather have the environment be static and run at 60fps than for everything to make a fart noise when I shoot it and run at 30fps.

We had HDR in the 90s, it failed for obvious reasons.

>Yea, DF stopped being worthwhile when they stopped being focused on just reporting the facts (resolution and framerates) and started dicksucking games' technology and talking about other meaningless shit
You say this like its a bad thing. I much prefer them looking into old tech, discussing things like volumetric lighting, and dissecting a game running on interesting hardware than another “60fps with slight frame pacing issues and a dynamic resolution ranging from 4k-900p” video.

No it doesn't.

I still can't believe how mind blowing RTX was on Control. This game is the most impressive piece of tech I've ever experienced.

good christ kill yourself you literal who

Nah, I don't care about them talking about a game's tech unless they go in-depth explaining it or talk about interesting old games.
Who gives a fuck if the face scanning tech in a game is impressive? Every mid-budget or higher game nowadays has impressive face scanning tech.
It's like saying a game has soft shadows.

Same. I thought he had integrity, but he praised this game like it was the best game ever released despite it being on par with a number of other games he has shit on before, even just this year.

I love DF Retro and John and Alex put a lot of effort into their videos even if they can be off the mark sometimes. I think the problem here is that John looks at games as an enthusiast rather than a paying customer. He's not reviewing the game for someone who's going to play it for hundreds of hours, he's just playing it for a few hours and talking about graphics techniques.

John should just stay away from new games because they're all boring shit. Alex is generally a good lad, but is also off the mark now and then. I remember him praising RE2make as a "great PC port" but completely glossing over the fucked up mouse issues.

The old twat and the zoomer should just fuck off entirely. Their videos are so boring. "Here's a switch game here's the resolution and framerate test alright bye, not even gonna edit this lmao"

Thank fuck the nasally voiced twat left a while ago. Nobody even remembers him.

And this is where people seem to get confused on what DF does. They discuss technology in terms of visuals as well as game-related hardware. They don’t review games. They rarely comment on visual design except in passing. They don’t discuss controls. Why do people keep getting angry at them for not doing things the things they never really do at all?

They are actually Microsoft shills. They vehemently defend the Xbone and lie about the performance on those garbage consoles to make them look better.

Digital Foundry's analysis is pretty fucking watertight and non-biased and they often highlight issues to devs which later get fixed. If you think there's a bias then you need to shut the fuck up, honestly.

This looks like an early 360 "graphical" show piece

I don't think they're biased. I just think they're fucking tasteless retards.

you're literally just uneducated. DF literally just spouts buzzwords and hopes they stick

if you watched the OP video you'd start to understand just how nonsensical things they say are.

Attached: volumetric fog lol.jpg (2465x1081, 404K)

Seems like the reasonable conclusion is that many games look very good in certain specific situation but every game has some scenes that look very ugly. Control is the only game I can think of that doesn't have moments where the lighting is completely broken. Graphics technology has a long way to go.

I'm not sitting through 20 minutes of semi literate bullshit. what buzzwords do they spout? examples please.

>20 minutes
>long
you clearly don't care enough to bother replying to seriously. you're just a DF fanboy defending a bunch of shills because you don't know any better.

I think it's a good comparison. Gears 5 uses a new version of the engine that boasts new fancy graphics options, but at the same time it's a much cheaper game compared to Gears 2.

This is a collection of clips. Are you sure linked the correct video?

That's probably the most accurate and trustworthy review for the game

Getting rid of camera shake and the giant blood splatters IMPROVED the game. Gears 5 has destructible cover and even environments. There is nothing like shooting the ice below enemies and breaking it to make them fall in the water in Gears 2.

How did not covering half the screen in an overlay in the middle of a fire fight good? Seriously?

Other games have LOD that doesn't look like garbage.

he's right though.

I'm not talking about blood splaters on the screen, I'm talking about blood covering surrounding surfaces in the game. Sure, removing shaking camera and bloody screen are steps in the right direction, but everything else is just lack of details because gears 5 devs were lazy or running on a tight budget.

That's John crying, not Alex

I'm sure this is a reliable source of information

Why are the tranny Jannies deleting Gears 5 threads, face facts, your virtue signaling Gears game is shit.

Digital Foundry was good when they were pure technical discussion, but they tried to turn into a journalistic opinion source. And games journalism is fucking cancer so

because of the greater internet fuckwad theory

But crowbar literally doesn't contradict DF at all.

them saying gears 5 was the best pc port to ever have existed makes me want to just vomit, can you be even more of a shill. hell even tomb raider they never once mentioned the flaws it had when it came to graphics but conveniently made a video about it's entire history out of nowhere

OP vid does tho. I meant crowb was on about the soul. Snoys saw it as an opportunity for some reason.

journalism and opinion pieces aren't the same thing. So which is it?

It runs flawlessly, has endless graphics options and improves on the Xbox version in almost every possible way. It is the textbook definition of a good port.

They are in games journalism user
there is no integrity, fact, analysis or critical substance in games media
hasn't been for a while
you might not have been around when there was though

So we are mad the DF video didn’t cover negative nit-picks? It was pretty good at going through and showing what the various settings do and some of the positive details.

Are we just looking for stuff to be upset about at this point?

>all these shitters have trash ass pc's
imagine my shock

>Playing the campaign not offline and logged in will result in the servers crashing and game glitching out
Bad game honestly

But he still didn't actually, he just cried and pretended to.

I'm 38 years old. Games journalism has never been under more scrutiny than it is today. Journalists have never been held more accountable than they are today. Magazines were routinely paid to print puff-pieces for unfinished games in the 90s, and there were no repercussions.

They also lied about Spider-Man PS4

is there a hugbox for this shit game? if this was during the 360 era then it would be okay but who fanboys gears on this day and age?

DF's hugbox I meant

It is, the guy shows concrete evidence of how unimpressive the lighting and other graphics are when you take a closer look at them through gameplay. The guy in the video isn't even a Sony fanboy, he said that he even thinks Gears 5 is a good game and that people should buy it, but the graphics aren't as great as Foundry is making it out to be.

Which account are you talking about?
