Video games are filled with tricks to make things easier to render. Even though they are technically lies, I personally wouldn't call them lies since they are just ways of displaying something without having to do expensive computations.

[@Laezar1]

Abstractions more than lies

[@Verchiel_]

Ray tracing is probably the most grand example of a technology that's great and has some great use cases but is ultimately not worth the performance impact to use it in most games. Sure the water puddles look marginally more realistic, but that's not worth the 50% performance cut for most people. Ones that can afford it.

[@betterstayout0]

Yeh. I find the video too click-baity

[@mnomadvfx]

@@Laezar1 Not even abstractions in this case. More like dramatic over simplifications where only the surface is actually sorta physics simulated and the rest is literally just the game mechanics coded to make you and the other models inside it move as if you are in low gravity environment with some turbulence. Simulating only the surface makes computation drastically easier - and most of the time it's just a precoded animation rather than actual simulation anyway, with normal map animation for ripples when you disturb the surface.

[@mnomadvfx]

@@Verchiel_ Most in game water puddles these days are just a normal mapped texture on a flat surface that gives the illusion of depth. That being said, most modern water rendering in even raster graphics uses depth simulation to progressively cloud it the further away from the 'surface' it gets - which is similar to depth fog but limited to a specific volume in the game map.

[@KaitlynBurnellMath]

Everything in videogame graphics is "lies" by this standard. Those people? They're hollow inside. They're balloons. Buildings? Also frequently hollow and empty inside. Air resistance? Wind? That definitely isn't being simulated. A human using a hand to pick up a coffee mug, and take a sip? Chances are all of that is pre-animated and none of it is left to physics, and if you want them to do something different with that mug, like pick it up with three fingers instead of two, shake it, dump it out, juggle with it, hang it from one finger, probably all animated. None of it is physics between the fingers and the mug. If I take my hand and grab my arm, you can visibly see my skin stretch, freckles moving towards where my arm is grabbed. My flesh also bulges a bit as it's pushed away from the grab spot. Unlike water I can't think of any games that even TRY to do any of that graphically. Maybe, maybe, if you're playing a very polished game the hand will exactly touch the arm without passing through. Honestly, game water seems pretty good by comparison. There's games where they let you interact with water in lots of ways and it all looks pretty reasonable. But can you name a game where they let you do anything you want with human hands and it looks good? Nearly every game is like "oh god, oh fuck, oh no, we're not doing that! Here's a list of animations you can have the hands play. NOTHING else!"

"Video games lie to you. This is not water" The ground is also often just a mesh with no volume, and some behavior that prevents you from falling through. The water is just as real as that. If Minecraft tells me that block is water, it's water. As long as it's implemented in a way that looks consistent with the rest of the world, there's no reason to label it a lie. Every game has the freedom to choose how realistic it's going to be. Expectations like "Water is only water if it looks and behaves identical to real-life" are really not fair. It's nice to see an effort of explaining certain mechanics under the hood of game engines, but labeling them "lies" really does not sit well with me.

[@TheSilverShadow17]

Then again video games are never going to be 100% realistic in any regard whatsoever. That's not what they're designed and built for. I mean sure there are people who play devil's advocate for opting for more realism in games, but I personally don't see the point in that when we're talking about an entertainment sector that has worldwide influence.

The plural of vertex is not vertexes, its vertices. The craziest water lie I can think of is in the Build engine that games like Duke Nukem 3D, Shadow Warrior, and Blood used. That engine still wasn't fully 3D, but actually 2D info projected into a 3D simulation using digital witchcraft. So the way water worked was, unsurprisingly, super weird. One of the limitations of those old pseudo 3D engines was that you couldn't have a room above another room. Each sector could only have a single floor and ceiling height value. But these games had areas with what seemed like rooms over rooms. The way the did that was by placing the rooms next to each other in separate sectors, instead of above one another, and sneakily teleporting you between them. usually, climbing a staircase or riding an elevator would actually teleport the player, instead of simply connecting the areas like they seemed to. This allowed for more complicated level design than previous games like Doom were capable of, and even some real physics defying stuff too. And the way water worked was similar. When you were on the surface of a pool of water, you were actually simply standing on the floor of the sector. But it had special properties that made your character sit lower on it and bob up and down slightly to make it feel like you were chest deep in water. And to let you go underwater, when you hit crouch, you would actually teleport to the ceiling of a different sector that was the underwater area. This sector had more special properties like adding a blue filter to the screen, muffled the sound effects, and putting the player in a special flying mode that simulated swimming. And if you touched the ceiling again, it would teleport you back to the surface sector again. It sounds crazy, but especially in 1996, it was totally convincing.

Was about to mention the same thing. Also, iirc the ceiling of the underwater room would be given a water-like ripple effect and colour, to enhance the illusion. As an aside, you could make some really neat alien skies by using the water surface tiles (or lava, or slime) as sky textures.

5:40 - instead of taking damage from the water, you could have an enemy spawn after the player has been in the water for a few seconds. That's what Ratchet and Clank 1 and Jak and Daxter did when water was supposed to be a boundary. 👀

[@jay_mp4]

This is how some games like Subnautica can sometimes glitch and let you walk on the ocean's floor as if it was land

0:08 A Butter and cheese sandwich? Really? Why not just make it a grilled cheese at that point? Very Interesting video btw, I have always been a bit curious about how water graphics were computed and rendered.

The person on 4:44 is very cool

Well, at least fire is real in video games, and and those people we kill are real, right, and and that supernova that collapsed into a wormhole ejaculating cyclops unicorn in Final Fantasy 8.5*10³ is real, right?... So why is it the biggest lie in Video Games? Star citizen is the biggest lie. Or maybe the cake ... oh, no wait, there was a cake. Ok, maybe calling the npc's AI, which they never were. But water? Pffff. It's as much a lie as brickwall textured Polygons with single sided rendering...

[@GhostCreativeStudio]

The analysis you did is very good, all video games are created on lies xD the more efficient the way of lying is, the better the game will run.

This video was excellent. I was glued the whole time. Thank you for making it. FWIW, i put this in my "watch later" a while back and then I was playing cities skylines 2 and went into camera mode. When I went beneath the water surface, it was like I clipped through the ground or a building. Instantly, I'm all "the cake is a lie!" and then I remembered this vid. But that thing really nailed your point home. Well, that and the thing about water particles. Nope!

[@AhMakeGames]

Underwater-broom-torpedo-fishing... Okay hear me out. What if you allow the player to "fly" their brooms underwater, maybe at lesser speed and mobility but it will give you a fairly unique underwater traversal mechanic. And if you have that... the next step is putting a harpoon on the end of the broom and chasing down those fish with it yourself. Pretty unique way to maybe spear some bigger/legendary fishies. Feel free to ignore my rambling.

im just here bc i like his voice, I learned nothing :)

implying water irl is real
