I'm watching some gameplay footage of it and it looks horrible, what kind of people are creating these games? Can't believe where the money is being spent. Camera movements are cringe, it's like they never watched a single movie. Better not to talk about writing and dialogues. Even environment art which is usually okay even in shittiest games is barebones here.

i watched a couple random minutes of it on twitch. looked so much worse than in the promo videos. are the graphics hobbled on consoles or something? how can it look so much worse than the promos? the whole theme seemed kinda cringe too like a bunch rich white people and some focus groups came up with it.

Uff... where do I even begin.
The single dir. light is not at fault here thats for sure. Im making my own UE5 game with lumen and dare I say my shit looks significantly better.
I can notice that the shadows are extremely down which causes the most issues with the look here.
Not sure if thats just how the game is at top settings or if someone is trying to decieve us here by having the graphics settings at lowest. Also the contrast between the parts of the face that receive direct light vs those in the shadow looks off and too strong. Feels like there should be more indirect light.
The model itself has some issues too. The eyes look very generic and boring. They lack a certain detail that makes them look more alive. The lower lip hangs down a lot making the character look almost retarded, also showing most of the lower teeth which have been unconveniently messed up by the artsits.
The whole model doesnt really follow a proper artistic style. It just looks like the devs wanted to go as realistic as possible and their skills only were enough to add asymmetric imperfections and flaws )(because we are taught in school thats what makes a character realistic lol) while completely disregarding aesthetic harmony. Had they gone for a more stylized approach the overall appearence could have been much less unpleasant under those lighting conditions.
Anyway thats my 2 cents. Take from it what you will.

>The lower lip hangs down a lot making the character look almost retarded,
FYI its actually an age thing, older you get the more you lower lip sags down like that, and the less upper teeth show you have as the upper lip also sags.
basically her mouth looks too old for her face causing a weird disconnect, caveat for maybe the character is rolling lower lip down mid-speech or something.
...what's the context here? if its just an NPC then its fine that she's not a looker, i mean yeah the lighting is awful but if you are going for an average looking female this isn't really that disharmonious of a face structure, not enough to warrant critique.
also lens distortion, fish eye lens looking ass thing here.
asymmetry does not make a character look realistic, its a large part of the equation, but often its pretty much just flows and distorts the face slightly in along one direction, and therefore can be done as a final touch. if i recall most people have a more dominant left side which is interesting, point being its just like every other facet of the human face that you need to get right and not the magic touch.

Disavow sanctimonious identity politics. There is no doubt that this is intentionally bad to avoid "the male gaze". Someone probably tried to add a constant eye highlighter and got called out for muhsoggyknee. Bright sun and dark sky is also a queasy combo, even if it's meant to be alien world or whatever. Mainly though this is just terrible rigging.

It's strange how the tech demos for these engines looks gorgeous and seem to produce massive scale environments in no time
but then whenever we see a finished project it's a shadow of what was originally offered.
It's like we're at the point in time where the engines have eclipsed available talent to such a degree that AAA games
with multi million budgets come out looking like disjointed asset flips.
I have a difficult time understanding how you can burn 100+ million dollar and come out looking like this.
How on earth do you hire that much talent and have this little to show for it, what do they spend that money on?
As an indie dev watching a let's play I see so much ugly yank and jerky animation, sure there's competent art but it's juxtaposed with a bunch of vanilla skyrim tier assets everywhere, with budgets like that: why? I would not feel tempted to spend $100 on most of Forspoken's systems if they where on sale at the Unity Asset store.

>It's strange how the tech demos for these engines looks gorgeous and seem to produce massive scale environments in no time
That's because there is a difference between
>rendering a trailer on a nasa tier computer a Triple-A studio can afford
vs
>Trying to make the game run equally well on what's considered 'wide enough' appeal in terms of hardware specs for PCs
not to mention
>Appealing to Massive Console Market with hardware always 5-10 years out of date compared to PCs
Ontop of all that trailers are usually made before much work is done on the game, a proof of concept where they throw shit at the wall and it's fortunate if even half of it makes it to release.
That's ontop of executive meddling and shizo design docs that change every few months as they try to chase the latest trends making you scrap a lot of the work you'd already done, that alone will be a huge money, time and morale sink.

The tech demo was 10 years old, the tech they were using wasn't even modern at the time, now it's positively ancient, mix that in with their half assed ray tracing and you get a really pathetic game technically, there's nothing about this game that makes it look like a 9th gen title, then again I have yet to see a single Japanese game that looks 9th gen.

But something that was whipped together for a tiny fraction of 150million dollar 10 years ago far far eclipses what we see here 10 years later. How is that even possible? It's not like they had been working on that tech demo since 2002.
That 10 year old tech demo still looks better than all last gen titles that where ever released.
Are they like rendering it at 1hz and play it back full speed or something. Same with epic and all them unreal engine showcases, same with Unity too and that blacksmith demo etc.

The problem with the game, is that they had a mid budget title, developed by B and and C tier developers, but they marketed it as their new AAA property. Probably because they had celebrities involved, so they had to pretend to be Hollywood and make it bigger than what it was. If it was marketed as the light, mid tier game it was, then people would be a lot more forgiving of the graphics.
The bigots try to spin this as a black and trans problem. But if the game featured a spiky hair anime boy, the same bigots would defend the game to death. In that case, they would say it's "camp kino", not bad. Like how they defended Stranger of Paradise.
