Date: January 1st, 2025 1:25 PM Author: esc Video Games Can’t Afford to Look This Good The gaming industry spent billions pursuing the idea that customers wanted realistic graphics. Did executives misread the market?
https://www.nytimes.com/2024/12/26/arts/video-games-graphics-budgets.html
“It’s very clear that high-fidelity visuals are only moving the needle for a vocal class of gamers in their 40s and 50s,” said Jacob Navok, a former executive at Square Enix who left that studio, known for the Final Fantasy series, in 2016 to start his own media company. “But what does my 7-year-old son play? Minecraft. Roblox. Fortnite.” |

Sports game visual fidelity demand is driven entirely by minorities afaik Weird how Zoomers have an affinity for the visual styles of gaming eras they never directly participated in though. Lethal Company's jankcore aesthetic is becoming extremely popular with Z/As |

Date: January 1st, 2025 1:36 PM Author: chill online bro i think this is more because improving graphics is a quantifiable metric, and one that requires more bodies and more work hours. so the corporate machine loves it because it's more make-work for employees and more Metrics for the managers
i'm willing to believe the Racist explanation instead though |

Date: January 1st, 2025 4:27 PM Author: https://imgur.com/a/o2g8xYK This is silly. The graphic haven't actually gotten better, that's the issue. Real "ray tracing" is 20 years from being possible. This bullshit they do now is not innovative (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=5657802&forum_id=2#48508203) |

Date: January 1st, 2025 4:30 PM Author: https://imgur.com/a/o2g8xYK I don't know what that means. I just watch YouTube videos where people show the graphics in these games, and there's nothing special about any game made in the last 20 years (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=5657802&forum_id=2#48508211) |

Date: January 1st, 2025 4:31 PM Author: Oh, you travel? ( ) real ray tracing and path tracing is possible now, just not on some cheap Sony console (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=5657802&forum_id=2#48508214) |

Date: January 1st, 2025 4:52 PM Author: cowgod I don't even know what ray tracing is. I tried turning it off and on in cyberpunk and it didn't appear to do anything. (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=5657802&forum_id=2#48508264) |

Date: January 1st, 2025 4:51 PM Author: Oh, you travel? ( ) when retard gamers use the term "gRapHix" they are really meaning "photorealism" which should only really be used in certain sims and sport games imho.

Date: January 1st, 2025 4:54 PM Author: cowgod The odd thing is they spend like 7x MGS4's budget to basically have MGS4 graphics. And there's no economies of scale. Every Ubisoft game costs that much despite being the Same Engine and Same Game. (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=5657802&forum_id=2#48508274) |

Date: January 1st, 2025 5:00 PM Author: cowgod Even PS3 to PS4 was mostly The Same. MGS5 was about The Same on either platform imo. (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=5657802&forum_id=2#48508288) |
