[@mwreyf1]

When are the developers going to realize that you don't need 10 step sounds to walk 4-5 feet? How tall is the protagonist here, 3 ft. tall?

[@JulioDevUnreal]

kkkkk

[@dazzlesoftware]

that would be triggered from physical materials. but maybe the audio for the physical materials should be longer

[@Instant_Nerf]

Be the developer you want to see. Seriously. Show them how it’s done.

I want to play my all time favorite game Minesweeper and Solitaire using this engine.

[@clashsat962]

This is truly incredible. Everything I watched during the video reminded me of The Witcher 3. I hope Witcher 4 will be released as a beautiful game like this.

[@eddielonestar7962]

Thanks for sharing! These look epic! We are living in exciting times when it comes to game creation. To think of the old Atari and my Amstrad CPC6128. We've come a long way. Just need that 50 series GPU now. These realistic environments are testing for my 3090Ti.

[@hypersonicmonkeybrains3418]

50 series? presuming you want a midrange card like most gamers, you're going to have a long wait.

[@rubycandy92]

Looks AMAZING

If the Defect Nature demo had reactive water that would be a truly amazing demo with everything put together

[@storiesreadaloud5635]

Awesome. First one is genuinely unnerving. I reserve judgement until I see how people look though.

[@Huntaziel]

Magnifique, il est vraiment difficile de se dire que c'est photoréaliste tellement c'est vraiment réaliste. Encore quelque bug sur les ombres mais dans l'ensemble c'est du grand Art. L'ambiance y est. J'adorais jouer à ce genre de jeux qui ont cette faculté de nous plonger immédiatement dans un monde parallèle au notre. ça promet !

5.4 업데이트 이후 나나이트가 한층 더 세련되진것 같아요

[@bonedoc4556]

These demos have you move at a snails pace to limit impact on draw distance, pop in and fps. Even then its challenging what i assume is top end hardware. So while it looks great, hardware has to catch up to it.

[@ibrahimakca8628]

the arda middle arth wow😉

[@boedilllard5952]

This is the first demo I've seen that looks about the same as regular gameplay - most is amazingly detailed but you'd never see graphics that good in a real game.

[@Oryon7]

Looks great, but I feel like I'm at the stage where I'd say: "I get it. UE5 allows for very highly detailed environments, but how about we see some more dynamic stuff?" I'd like to see things interacting with these environments more. Some environmental destruction would be interesting to see. All those trees, huh? Where's the woodsman and his axe to hack them limb by limb? Heck, even a truck or ATV navigating such detailed wooded areas would be interesting. I'm pretty sure it's harder to pull off more dynamics, but what good is having all that detail and not being able to interact with it? By the way, games in the past did that, with MUCH less powerful hardware. It's high time to take it to the next level!

[@KarlJuluisGramota]

Yeah, how about some action? It's a GAME ENGINE after all, not just a render engine.

[@princerawat4297]

People need to realize realistic graphics r good and all but without the world being feel alive or the game feeling fun its not worth it, these types of graphics will get justice when theres a game like rdr 2 is made which honestly saying remove the good graphics part from rdr 2 and yet it still would be the best open world game bec of how much is thr in it and THEN good graphics comes which makes these games perfection

[@Oryon7]

@@princerawat4297 Yes. I think a game like Zelda BotW/TotK is an even better example, because they are literally running on a potato powered device topping 7w for the entire system(screen and all) while playing. And yet, the way they allow the player to interact with the world is mind-boggling. So many simulated systems, all applied in a global and cohesive manner, giving the player unprecedented freedom to play the game how they choose. With today's hardware being so powerful, it's sad(shameful even) that games have taken several backward steps in this regard. Outside of some indie games, and a '2 or 3' "Tripple A" titles, there's been a gradual regression when it comes to making very dynamic worlds. It's funny how games from more than a decade ago attempted more simulation than most games today. The next GTA should help bring some balance to the equation, but it's gonna take more games.

[@user-zn6bn9cu3k]

I love it ASD Durr Burger not bad job. Story plot for creative writing 😮

[@unorthodox5171]

Dang, I love it.

[@doni-sitlgaming4182]

Love the atmosphere and the graphics but t will be years before the hardware catch-up to that.

[@danielpena7428]

Have you seen people playing Silent Breath. The game looks very realistic and it's playing very decent. I think hardware is at the doors already in terms of catching up.

[@babacalouche]

replace " years" by " months", it will be more realistic...next year, PS5 pro will give you that without a problem.

[@doni-sitlgaming4182]

@@babacalouche yeah PS5 can already give you that but at what fps though

@@babacalouche X2 or X3 in some specs figures on the PS5 pro will not translate into X2 or X3 of fps. Sure it will have more performance but don't hope for "astronomical" ones like you said.

[@leminsc8]

fenomenal! it would be nice if there look for sounds in the future. Sometime foodstep-sound as example stairs outside (stone) listen like living room. A little sand or something dirt with a system that reconiced indoor/outdoor weahter/off for a bigger soundpack. 9:25

Why does the fire have purple bloom/ambient lightning?

[@PennyLeach]

From your videos before; I have an idea!

[@PennyLeach]

From your videos before; I have an idea for my own 3D Scanned Skybox. I will make myself from my own photos taken made. It will ideally use 3D digitized Sky photos (Sun Layers Included) to create deep blue sky with anime-like sun gleam, and gradient layers of clouds. It's kind of an old-school technique, but if applied correctly, then it will futurefy more meaningful skybox scenery to have a realistic (or dreamier) look.

[@ErichToven]

Odd amount of suddenly started crows in that demo.

[@jasonsmith-mz9rf]

It would be nice if devs prioritize performance and a good story/gameplay over how the fking game looks. Look what happened to Dragon's dogma 2
