Luminous Engine?

I thought Final Fantasy: The Spirts Within came pretty close, and that was made way back in '01 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GnE64DbnUzY

Those are both good CG, but that’s all you think when you see them. You can tell they’re CG. That was my point - we haven’t a gotten to the point when we can’t tell CG stuff apart from real stuff. Well, not main characters and such. Backgrounds can be CG’d and be ridiculously believable.

when I was a kid, in some scenes I couldn’t tell between that FF the movie and IRL

when I was a teenager, in some scenes I couldn’t tell the difference between the final flight of the osiris and IRL

now I can instantly tell if something has been digitally altered most of the time and life is boring

Anyone remember this?

Why can’t Enix take a page from Epic and make an amazing tech demo like this?

That is an awesome tech demo, I never saw that. but you’re right, Square enix needs to stop making tech demo’s of empty rooms and show something worthy of our time.

With how many useless fucking trailers Square Enix makes you’d think they’d be able to make a decent tech demo.

Mostly because Epic worked with a different studio to get that made. I believe it was some people from the studio that did Prototype.

I think it’s also because this is gonna be a new IP from them too.

Would you?

Wait, is their entire tech demo a hallway? And they thought after the unreal demo that was acceptable? Thats just sad.

Your right, their trailers are also typically equally worthless.

What about this?

mabie it’s me, but this doesn’t look so good. It looks very low-rez to me and I didn’t see anything not available on current engines.

oh god what a fail, all I see is aliasing all over the place and low-res textures on badly illuminated objects, also non-linear lag

how could they have missed all that

Real life needs an engine update.

the universe is perfect

biology is not

paradox

universe is not perfect

paradox solved

it’s only imperfect from our point of view

Perfection implies purpose though.

only if you’re on speed, imperfection is a state of being where something is missing or wrong, purpose is somewhere between cause and effect/is a social mechanic invented to prevent people from idling

what’s my purpose? trolling you
