Dude, that shit’s a scam. It’s been in “development” for years and never seems to get any better.
Yeah I’d rather they have proven tech like being able to optionally turn on path tracing or something. There’s tons of things that Valve can put in Source 2 that isn’t a supposed scam with no evidence at all that it works.
Polygons are getting closer and closer to the point where they’re indistinguishable from voxel clouds. Obviously they’re not quite there yet, but I’d expect polygon tech to reach a point very soon where voxel clouds won’t be worth the trouble if they become more practical.
Also it’d be absurd to not be producing games for many years just because they won’t look pretty enough. Ever since around 2010 games reached a “good 'nuff” stage for me where better graphics are cool and all but they don’t need to be to keep me happy.
I just read that a whole episode return to ravenholme got developed then panned by arkane studios…
That makes me feel like vomiting
An Arkane produced Half-Life game would have been amazing. A helluva lot better than the nice tall glass of Nothing Juice that we got instead.
