Deep Down: New footage

Not open for further replies.
Applesauce doesn't understand perspective. The unveiling was in first person, in a dimly lit cave and showed detail up close. These pictures are in third person from far away.

What about the gifs and videos where it doesn't even look like the same game anymore?
 
The footage that was 1st shown was zoomed in non gameplay running at 30fps.
The actual gameplay footage that isn't zoomed in is running @ 60fps.

Ok, so Val you are saying the old was running at 30fps, so they had to make some compromises to get 60fps. I don't know of any developer that builds an engine around 30fps then decides they can keep the same visual fidelity at 60fps. If that's the case, some of it might make sense, not all of it.
 
The initial reveal had much stripped and was more zoomed in.
I still don't see anything to make me think its not the same engine if not better version used now.

Its kinda like Sunset Overdrive where it looks much better with the in-game cinematics which are zoomed in.

I would like to see cinematic of DD footage and compare that.
 
I'm tired of these hustling tactics where a game studio hypes us up with graphical expectations they have no intention of meeting in the actual release of the product. :(

*sigh*

The art style kills this game, who is thinking up these enemy designs?

lmao, that's beyond a simple downgrade. The lighting in the new build isn't bad imo, but still not as good, not to mention everything else is downgraded.
Why are you comparing cutscene animations to non-cutscene animations? This is why I never understand you console warriors and your fan wars.

Where is the proof its a cutscene? I just went back and rewatched the trailer, during those animations I posted there is a weapon select UI bottom left.

Name a game that has weapon select UI during cutscenes. Explain that.
 
That is gameplay.
Show me non gameplay footage of the new DD and we can compare that.

BTW that looks great

There is weapon select during the entire sequence after the conversation piece in the original. No game has a weapon select menu during cutscenes.
 
You don't put UI placeholders in cutscenes Val, theres nothing to place there later. That's what a placeholder is.
Its obvious that is what they did.
The game was nowhere near being playable back then/the actual UI looks different.

I still am waiting to see pics/footage of the finished game zoomed in/cinematic so I can make a fair comparison.

Here you go, plenty of close ups, cutscenes, gameplay, everything. Seems to me they literally changed the game looking at it from the reveal, doesn't have the same dark art style or realistic look as this trailer.

 
That is not presented in the same way as the reveal.

We need cinematic footage.

yeah I don't really need that at all, the reveal is older but looks better than anything else shown so that speaks volumes. Even the style is different so that tells me they had to go another direction. I think the reveal was what the developers thought they could do with the ps4 hardware, but they just couldn't pull off anywhere near that once they got their hands on it.
 
It's hard make the animation comparison simply because the reveal was likely just a scripted sequence. Unfortunately, it was the idea of having some actual character in the animation that I found so appealing in the first place. It's what gives Naughty Dog games such an edge. I really want more character and emotional context in animation this gen, and I thought this game was going to provide it.

I think it's sad that all of the character that was shown in the reveal haS been replaced by this generic Dark-Souls-esque direction. The animations also now have that clunky animation we are so used to.

Yep the whole direction has been replaced with super generic, goofy visual style. Before it was somewhat generic, but at least it looked great!

Graphically it looks great, imo. What I'm sad to see go is all the dynamism. Be it in animation or combat scenario. To see the dragon encounter go from running around with pillars you have to hide behind, exploding arrows and destruction, to standing in the middle of the room while you and you buddies hack at it MMO style is disheartening. I'm waiting for some developer to move this forward.

Oh yeah, I forgot about destruction, so many differences I can't even keep track of them all.

How am I console trolling? The initial reveal and even the gameplay clips after that are better than these screenshots. Deep Down was targeted to be incredible looking.. the latest images show that it's just going to be a standard looking next-gen game. It doesn't matter what platform the game is on.

Even this gif:

I think that was all setup for marketing. I never believed they would hit that target for actual gameplay. Similar to Uncharted 4's E3 footage.

I think that's a bit tough to call. It could look very different in motion. Beyond that, the new screens definitely include a different, diffused lighting environment which could also have a diminishing effect in how dynamic it looks as compared to the more unidirectional lighting from footage past.

And that may be true. All I'm seeing right now are the screens.. and they do indeed (for whatever reason) look inferior to what we've seen before.

I tend to think my posts are rather realistic and not fanboyish actually.
