i remember back in the 90s, i'd watch cutscenes in games and think "one day games might look this good!" we're already far past that milestone, this video is showing us the next milestone, photorealism!

[@surject]

Yeah, who doesn't remember Microprose F1 Grand Prix intro made with 3D Studio? It looked soo realistic haha. It actually got me into 3DS4 2y later, and 3DS Max the next decade.

[@Simon-ik1kb]

same here. I remember playing with Playstation 1 and thinking the same thing that some day games will look this amazing as those cutscenes... Now when you look back... for example at Tekken 3 intro... :D

[@speedsociety9177]

i remember thinking this when i first watched the intro to Bioforge in 1995 and was blown away. Watching it now is weird though, realtime surpassed that just 5-10 years later.

[@bradleydoyle1541]

I had to remind myself that it was a render while watching Rebirth and not just filmed somewhere. I'm 100% with you on wanting to learn how this all works!

[@hagarbebado]

It's really nothing new. The idea of scanning natural environments and uploading the scans into computers is indeed very old. Watch John Carmack's seminars on computer graphics history. What is happening is that finally scans are becoming more ubiquitous and the processing power of computers has also increased a lot, but there aren't any big technological advances in the way things are rendered (that's why in the video the narrator says there is no ray tracing). It's more like an advance in art style, but this new "art style" is produced more from real-world measurements rather than from artists trying to draw/model photorealistic objects. Games with stylized textures and geometry benefit much less from this kind of thing and will remain virtually unchanged by these new scan libraries.

[@AramK]

This is absolutely incredible work right there. Reminds me of Prometheus

photorealism is easy if you are using megatexture without any light computation, trees, and other real-world objects

[@cunnyman]

Exactly. There's no reflection, effects and much physics going on either. Reflection is known for fps killer as shown with RTX, effects and on-going physics kills your CPU. This is just 1 rock moving when you touch it. There is only 1 light source, no transparent textures... nothing. Of course, it looks good. Any mid range GPU can pull 30fps+ with this level of graphics. Plus, it's not even realistic. It's just photorealistic, which is filled with fake uncanny looking effects. I mean, no hate on the progress, but it's not too surprising considering something like the PS4 can render New York in Spider-Man so well with a shit ton of people walking around. A 1080Ti is at least 6x more powerful than the PS4 GPU wise, this is not too impressive.
