Imagine being this paranoid over a tech demo 🤣

Anyway, that was really short, but it looked super-good. And better than that CGI Lion King train wreck from Disney 😊👍



Hmm...could be very good or very bad. Guessing more VR military simulation programs (Unity did also have that VR demo a couple months ago too IIRC).



I'd argue that RDR2, Cyberpunk (on PC) and TLOU Part 2 surpassed the demos shown for PS4/XBO back in 2012/2013.

The issue is that getting to that point in a commercial release is taking longer and longer, needing more dev time, larger teams, more outsourcing and bigger budgets. Which means more time. So generations have to either run longer or we end up with less AAA games overall (there are but so many support studios, artists, animators, programmers etc. in the industry after all, particularly on AAA side) to get games near the end that meet or exceed the tech demos shown early on.

Though I'd argue in some ways, at least with games like HFW, we're already getting games that measure up very strongly (or exceed in some areas) to the UE5 demo from 2020 and Enter the Matrix city demo, while being huge games on top of that. Well, I guess maybe only HFW would meet that criteria so far IMO, and that's thanks to being a 1P game using a custom, proprietary in-house engine.

So there is some hope we can get a couple of big AAA games by 2024 or so that match up to if not surprise those earlier demos, though I think the best chance for that is going to come from Sony 1P. Maybe Naughty Dog's next game, Spiderman 2, Wolverine, or whatever SSM's original new IP are. Heck, GOW Ragnarok should compare as favorably to the 2020 UE5 demo and Matrix demo as HFW does IMHO.
Paranoia lmao? I'm highlighting the Sony fanatic behavior when that UE5 demo came out and those lunatics actually thought only the PS5 could do that lol.

No, because you guys have meltdowns. Meltdown less and the incentive goes away.
why not discuss something about the unity clip the op mentioned instead of going straight in on some garbage rant about ps5?

No one has mentioned anything about the ps5, but your straight in there, it's almost like your trying to make it an issue.

Who cares, ignore me. Apparently we're a bunch of adults here but no one has the self-control to just brush things off.

Yes because what I set out to do is come to a new forum and then act like a completely different person... Is it working?

While just a very short glimpse, it looked great. Never thought unity engine could push graphics that hard

Acting like a decent human being and not some frothing-mouthed fanboy is not a lot to ask for.

But you do you, I just find it sad that is your intended purpose here.
