[@flo.g.]

To my knowledge, they made all of these shorts with the intention of getting studios/investors interested, so that they can get financed to make more shorts and eventually turn some of them into actual feature length projects. They didn't get enough support though, so they already had to stop after the first season of content.

I think its either a testing ground where some scientists created AI to live in some wilderness somewhere and the robots have developed a society esq. bit. Or there was a war between man and machine and Humanity is releasing the AI units to the "Freedom fighters" In some accordance to a ceasefire or what not. Either way would agree that this could use some more because it is an interesting Idea.

[@ninja_tony]

I love how the only reason people disliked this is that it proves Unity is capable of breathtaking graphics. Just proves what the professionals always knew: It's not the engine but the artist.

[@stuardbrtube]

Yes, I agree. Now tell me, 5 years ago, rendered in a GTX980. Today, in 2021, how many games using Unity deliver this type of graphic?

[@cakeu]

@@stuardbrtube It's easy to render cut scenes. But when interactive games come in, it becomes much harder. The reason why it's so hard to make a good looking game is because of C#. As good as it is because of it's speed and simplicity of use, it introduces way too much overhead. This is why in general Unity games look worse. This is why Unity are working on DOTS, ECS and HDRP...

[@recodegamesstudio]

I use Unity and like the engine, but if this was actual interactive real gameplay the only thing you'd be seeing is a blue screen when your PC crashes

[@bowi1332]

Some people think that the Unity company focused too much on photorealism recently, instead of bug-fixing and polishing. I'm not a professional and I never used a game engine (I'm a gamer), but I read an article about it, as well as some user comments.

[@adamcourtenay]

@@bowi1332 i use unity pretty extensively and rarely run into game stopping bugs from the engine itself. i'm not sure where these people are coming from, but unity is regularly updated, the client from just a few years ago feels miles behind the latest alpha

I just watched Adam episodes 2 and 3 on Netflix after watching this and I would love this so much as a movie or even a game. I could see this being turned into a really high budget movie and would watch it even if it's like 3 hours long. I could also see this being turned into a really cool open-world rpg game with an amazing story

[@solymi]

..in the year of 2717, on Kepler 186f, humanity seems to achieve the technological goals set for terraformation of a new home. A plan stretching over centuries, Earth United invested pretty much everything they had into Plan B, and now, we seem to be ready to leave in numbers and let mother Earth to rest. As we learned to value life more than death, Adam M. Thomas became one of the lucky ones sentenced for their crimes "optionally". Like we all, he knew a lot about mankind's ambitious plans of building a fleet in space, so he agreed with minor hesitation the shortened sentence of "live and work" over "live and let die". He was promised not only conditional freedom of movement, but most benefits of the healthy society he used to be the part of. In regret of his crime, he was told of wealth, healthcare, enforced law and forgiven sins, the only thing he had to put into consideration is the complete abstinence of his former relations - as the "isolated task" individually allocated to each prisoner was at the top of mankind's secret, and subject of a routine frontal lobe erasure, once done. What he hasn't been told were classified conditions of this second chance, especially the "uniform". Primary organs containing his biological conscience were transferred into a mechanical shell able to survive low-cost deep space travel, hostile working environment - and to eliminate fatigue. Horrified and confused when he first awakens to start Day 1, he remains unsure if it is better or worse to stand up, than it was on his last day on Earth, in his 51 year old, weary body - which is now left in the "Locker Room". Certainly not a face to look at in the mirror, but certainly a hand to work with. However there is one more thing he must learn of unwillingly. A seemingly stagnant conflict between men and a man, who now rules what was once all created by us. Formerly a prisoner himself, now a king of a kind, known as the Architect. With motivations unclear, both a cooperative friend and a fearsome foe with the intention of peace, but enforcing his ways of the Construction. Engaged in a cold war not to win, a battle not to fight, as all what men could destroy is all what men have. We never meant to leave. We meant to evolve.

Here are some mistakes I found and some pointed out in the replies: 2:12 On the left a bot pops up out of nowhere. Only their feet have reflections in the water puddles. The foot of one of the bots in the front left passes through a bit of the ground. 2:22 On the right there is a bot passing through another one. 3:22 The toes of the bot standing up pass through the floor. Some white flashing in the water puddle reflection on the far left. 4:18 Some of the leaves on the ground show z-fighting. 4:27 Some z-fighting on the building in the back, mainly shadows and the letters "AD". 4:49 The transition between the "turn around" and "walk" animation is not well interpolated. The looping of the walking animation isn't seamless. You could see some jumping in his position for each walk cycle. 5:00 Some of the foliage doesn't move at all (no wind is blowing on it). Also noticeable at 3:38. _BTW don't have anything against Unity. This is awesome. I just thought it would be interesting to see some criticism in between all the comments praising the graphics or trying to interpret the story._

[@RickyRecruit]

While this video is certainly impressive, people need to understand some things, It's a full motion sequence meaning: - No A.I. calculations - No physics - No game logic - No Network latency - at 24 fps A entire sequence dedicated to simply animations and rendering. A game, depending on its complexity, on a single 980 will have some trouble looking this good and playing smoothly at 30fps.

[@Ivy-pe2wz]

those are A-Multi threaded B-Not GPU-bound (Most of them are on CPU) and C- Unity does a kiloton of optimizations there . FPS is not the thing here,this demo was made to look like a movie (at 24/30 FPS), not like a game so you can expect that low-fps hell.If they wanted a 60 FPS experience, they could have used multi-gpu config.

[@ajaxkun]

Then why were the two robots on the right clip walk through each other at 2:23

[@Nomnomnom165]

RickyRecruit Then again, it's at 1440p. At 1080p it should get 40-60 fps. Also, a 1070 or 1080 should handle this engine just fine. That being said, you make a point.

[@AletinLoL]

Well thats simply not true I just looked through bunch of UE4 showcase videos and the Unity one looks much much better. It's true that i might not seen the one you did/the latest one but after all this is 8 months old and both engines trie their best to improve. But most of the videos I saw were from time this one was realeased as well. (btw link the video you think is better nextime i would love to see it for real I'm not biased to any of the engines)

logic usually runs on CPU, graphics on GPU and games are GPU bound, you should really learn some basics before trying to teach others if you look closer, it does run physics and the video runs at 30 fps

Now if he'd just stop being a dickbiscuit about someones obviously sarcastic comment about him wanting this concept to be a game, but in all obviousness would be impossible to recreate as said game.

[@awiesozial]

+XBloodyBaneX just what i thought. i imagine a dystopian world, maybe in the same style as fallout. you were a human once and your personality was transferred into this robot. as you explore the wasteland, you start to learn more about your live before all this. it would be pretty cool if you could switch or modify your own components and so on

[@Dementedthree9]

in that case i agree with you 100%

[@TDLBallistic]

...can I please use the term dickbiscuit? It's wonderful.

[@guilhermeferreira4081]

It's easy to make high good graphics. But modern PCs won't be able to run it +60 fps

[@thronosstudios]

Technically, a few games have come close (if not on par) to this quality... mainly Death Stranding and DmC 5. Then you have others that have achieved incredible visuals in different art styles such as Gears 5, Red Dead Redemption 2, FFVII Remake and Cyberpunk 2077.

[@Blindmin]

its just so crazy to me that this is on unity, you never see anything half as good as this come from unity devs

[@tahunuva4254]

Unity technologies has a full view working for it: Unity devs are normally solo indies, or get-rich-quick N-CODs who just rip off the latest Clash of Clans or Candy Crush.

[@isochronous]

Keep in mind that you can render much more detailed graphics when you don't have to worry about things like AI, a sound engine, ballistics calculations, etc. consuming processor cycles - you might have 40-50% less CPU power available for graphics in the middle of gameplay. I'd also wager that the unity guys spent weeks, if not months, working on this one cinematic. When you're making a game you simply don't have the resources to devote to quality of this level unless you're a AAA studio, and if that's the case you're most likely using either the Unreal engine or an in-house proprietary engine like Frostbite or Fox Engine.

[@AaronStagl]

exactly. don't compare a cut scene to the full game.

[@MikePhilbin1966]

even GTsport is turning off sexy-visual replay-fx so that it can RUN @ 60 fps on PS4 - something needs to 'change' somewhere... or this'll never happen ingame.

[@shatley123]

What everybody's said in the replies is true, a film is much much easier to optimize then a full game. But you also have to remember, the engine doesn't suddenly make a game look pretty. If you want a game to even look half as good as this, then you need to have skilled people who can make use of the engines capabilities. A game engine that is so indie friendly as Unity, is going to of course have games that look bad and play bad, but it has nothing to do with the engine. Engine's that cost 100,000s of dollars to license aren't exactly going to be licensed to make bad games (hopefully). Admittedly UE4 does have higher capabilities and is very indie friendly, but besides that there isn't much (though not as hobbyist friendly, in my opinion).

[@AmalgmousProxy]

Man, it would be nice if this went somewhere. Such an interesting concept for a movie.

[@UchihaKuriso]

Well my theory on the story is similar to others. They're prisoners linked to a robotic body. Their consciousness isn't moved, its just linked. Their human body is stored somewhere hooked up and linked to this one in a compressed "library" sort of underground facility where prisoners are the books, where their bodies are kept alive on machines, while their bodily functions such as muscle movement and breathing is shifted to the robotic body. The robotic body is their prison, as it shows when "Adam" strives to breath and struggles to get free of the body in the beginning. Its frustrating and definitely feels like their body is meant to be their prison. They are then sent to exile in this desert area (a bit toxic by the looks of the clone guards) where they are greeted by a couple other robots. Also probably once sent here a long time ago. They however have their own sense of community, and are against being identified and defined by felony codes, so the big guy shuts those down. An ability he probably got from modifying himself over time from scrap parts of whatever is left in the wasteland. They'll probably be identified by what they wear, or Adam's broken face, like those two are. Also at first I thought their legs are sticks, but watching again it looks like they're tied to sticks, and they sink in when they come closer? Dunno.

[@guycockitt2279]

Sticks, yes, but in these circumstances I think the word stilts fits better. The stilts look like they are strapped to the bottom of their feet by a block which moved down the stilts on demand. I would guess this is to keep their feet above water/ground level when wading through swamp, as that's what the ground they were travelling over looked like.

[@UchihaKuriso]

Right stilts, forgot about that word. xD

[@Syranox]

I like this theory :) It's kind of similar to what I was thinking as well. Although my first thought was that their consciousness was moved completely to the robotic body. Maybe if their sentence is much longer then their normal, human lifetime, they put them in these bodies so they can live out their whole time or something like that? I dunno. But I love this short film so much. It really is amazing. Some of the best games/films are the one that say nothing, but tell you so much through the world and characters.

[@frenchie9819]

Was going to write a theory but this pretty much summed up exactly what I thought

[@2KOOLURATOOLGaming]

Uchiha Sasuke Well, You were kinda right. "Adam: the mirror" by Oats Studio! It explains a bit more!!!! It's the sequel to this short!

[@johannesvorkinn]

This is great! all aspects of the film were superb, but the camerawork stole the show! it complemented the feel and tone of the film so well, and it kinda reminded me of mgsv: the phantom pain, which is a huge compliment! This must have taken a ton of work, so cheers to everyone @ unity!

[@Xptohz3]

"To make Adam, the Demo Team developed custom tools and features on top of Unity including volumetric fog, a transparency shader and motion blur to cover specific production needs. We’ll make these freely available soon!" In other words: THIS IS NOT Unity, but 3rd party software.

[@Xptohz3]

So what? Its 3rd party software. Without it you can't do it. Unless you build those tools by yourself or if you try CryEngine or Unreal Engine 4. There you have all the tools you need. ;-)

[@Xptohz3]

Hey! I don't want to start a flame war. The thing is that this video is awesome. BUT it was not made in Unity. It was made with 3rd party tools: "To make Adam, the Demo Team developed custom tools and features on top of Unity including volumetric fog, a transparency shader and motion blur to cover specific production needs." My point is that if you need to build those kind of tools on top of an engine, that is because it is not a good engine. You don't need to do that in CryEngine or even in Unreal Engine. Trust me. I am a game developer and I've worked with all of them: Unity, UE4 and CryEngine.

They are probably the felons convicted to sentence longer than life and after their dead they moved their consciousness to mechanic body to serve the rest of the sentence.

That makes no fucking sense whatsoever. Why would felons, who commited rapes, molestation, pedaphilia, and murders be given salvation? And in robot bodies....fuck off, you are clueless!

This is a work of art. It looks like the robots are humans serving some kind of penalty or punishment their brains have been transferred to these robotic bodies and now they are in prison, it seems a lot because the robot at the beginning of the short film tried to take what he thought was a mask without knowing much well what was going on

[@orkunhasacar9820]

[@kittehpowerx3]

The robots were humans at first. Their consciousness have been transfer to these robots. The robots were probably criminals, the felony number and their orange "overalls" hint at that, so in the future if you commit a crime you won't be put in a cell instead you will become a robot. Probably in the lines of a slave. The "shaman" & the samurai seem to have been in the same situation as the other robots but they managed to escape from all that. Now their quest is to help other robots, probably with justice as motivation. They may be building an army? Which then in the end will end up in a revolution leading to the extinction of mankind? I don't know. Remember that the film has the "Adam" as title. Which means that it has some biblical implications, the "shaman" may be Moses, leading the robots, who are going to represent the slaves in egypt. Our protagonist may be one of the very first robots to be set free henceforth Adam, the ever first robot born in a new world with new possibilities, first of his kind. Like Adam was the first man.

[@crimet0ad]

Just a sidenote, if you look closely on the main "robot", on the panel in his chest, his name is Adam M. Thomas ;)

[@Ax1007]

And the panel also says "Felony code 227900" so ya, prisoners released for some reason. And since the panels were wiped I agree with the Moses analogy. Taking the slaves and wiping their sins away.
