PleasureKevin posted:well, i'm not sure but it seemed like Sony treated them like royalty and Microsoft looked bad in comparison. apparently they even -gasp- admitted to making a PS4 and asked them what they wanted in it, whereas microsoft was like "we don't comment on rumours and speculation" type stonewall. Several devs came forward before the announcement of the xbone/ps4 saying that microsoft treated them like garbage http://www.wired.com/2013/04/sony-indies/ A few other indie devs wrote on their personal blogs that the treatment from Microsoft was awful as well. I'm sure Sony would do whatever it took to make Microsoft look bad by giving them star treatment, but Microsoft dug its own hole long beforehand

Microsoft has been gravitating towards the EA/Marvel. basically to go for the billion dollars franchises and forget the rest, as it's not worth the overhead. get a few franchises and milk them with sequel after sequel. i'm not sure how confirmed this is, but the original Halo story was apparently supposed to end with the discovery that Forerunner (Halo-builders) were ancient humans. instead they made the Halo universe go back literally a billion years. just speculation on my part, but perhaps they did this to extend the life of the franchise and create more spin offs.

Triglav posted:i quite liked halo reach so its ok they kept going multiplayer or single plater? because i can remember approximately one scene from Reach and that's it. the original game was really simple. anyone could digest it. then things got so complex it was hard to follow and kind of forgettable. and there was like a 300 page book to read in between each game if you wanted to know why the gently caress happened.

gamers are really mad that gamespot made a video comparing PC and PS4 Overwatch graphics, showing that they look almost identical. they're accusing them of lowering the graphics settings to low on PC. but a more in-depth comparison of Overwatch done by digital foundry finds the same thing, they look nearly identical. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Q7TsajQ7lUo maybe i'm missing something cause no one in the comments section is explain why they're mad in more detail.

I wonder if all the Ubisoft games become uglier because the pretty versions don't focus test as well as the simplified ones, space constraints on the disc or what Ultra detailed graphics with lots of filtering are beautiful to look at, but it also makes it much harder to see what's going on and what your objectives are than when you have big contrasts and simple graphics. I wouldn't be surprised if some Ubisoft engine programmer is crying himself to sleep because management removed all his hard work over and over. It clearly existed in-engine at some point, the development version and the final product is way too close to be a CGI mockup I remember in Watch Dogs you could turn most of it back on for the PC version by hunting for unused settings in the config file

yeah that's gonna be some of it. like the map example in the division e3 demo would only really work when you have a nice flat piece of ground to do it on so instead they have a regular map like in every other game. but w/ watch dogs its a combination of not wanting to make the brand new console generation already look totally out dated compared to pc and not having the time to do high quality assets for more than the e3 demo segment.

error1 posted:It clearly existed in-engine at some point, the development version and the final product is way too close to be a CGI mockup yeah, there's a lot of assets that are completely different. stuff like cars and trucks of the same type, in the same place, but different make and model and level of detail. they don't just put a low-poly version in, it's completely different stuff. i'm not sure how they do it, but it could very well be entirely pre-rendered. if you look at the movement of the viewing angle, it's not erratic enough to be a mouse, yet somehow even smoother than a controller would allow. so it seems like every movement is scripted. so that could indicate entirely CG, or some tool like Valve's movie maker where they can pre-render but it's still "in-engine". the thing that's upsetting about it is that this is clearly the workflow. like it's not just few optimizations, it's make a fake E3 thing that we know won't run, then make the actual thing, rinse repeat. actually, i think it may be the other way around. because who would make a fancy pre-render, then go re-make that in the real engine? it gives customers too close a comparison to make. it could be that film makers take the game as it exists at a certain point in development, then sweeten that with better geometry and effects, script the gameplay, and show that at E3. it's near the point where there should almost be some regulation on it. like, is the false advertising legislation that exists up-to-date enough to cover this kind of thing. of course, there will be those that say "if you're dumb enough to believe that's real it's your own fault" and "it's just video games". but i imagine the same thing was said about those $1 x-ray glasses they purported to sell in the backs of comic books.

it's a common practice in movie trailers to use scenes that were cut from the film entirely so i doubt using better effects in a gameplay demo is going to trigger false advertising
