Downgrading vidya games graphics is optimization.

gamers actively choose to support scummy practices like this

Please tell me this isn't the same bridge.

>>713800670 (OP)
Where is this bridge? I can't find it on euro truck 2

Can't keep paying the expensive costly maintenance all the while babysitting billionaires, niggers, mudslimes and poos anon. You retarded goys must pay for all that.

>>713800941
Nah, the bridge would be black in that case.

The ruling class have no need for beautiful cities anymore. They spend all their time in yachts and epstein rape dungeons where they can diddle kids in peace.

>>713800670 (OP)
Blame car drivers. They are the reason they needed to make this bridge soulless

>>713800890
The network test had the original lighting and you can still play it on RPCS3. Pretty neat being able to play that pre-release version of DS2 and playing the un-downgraded version of the game.

That said the mod is unironically better than even the pre-release version's lighting.

Blame car manufacturers for lobbying that everything everywhere needs to be designed for cars, ruining great city layouts to shove in roadways and parking lots and forcing new cityscapes/expansions to be built around cars.

Ninety percent of PCmutts have worse hardware than a console. Clean the shit out of your house before you open your cock holster again.

laziness and funding gay parades replaced dedication to preserving glory

How do people not riot when beautiful historical architecture gets jewified like this?

>>713802087
That's what I said.

>>713802478
sounds like cope to me

>>713802592
Cause they're too busy fighting to survive/watching Netflix/playing games/etc.

>everything is le dark
Looks much worse to me.

>>713801337
Having lived 5 years in Hamburg, the new bridge is quite a fitting representation.

>>713800670 (OP)
i think this works cause now it lines up with the expectation of what you're actually getting by going there

>>713800670 (OP)
ok but who lived in the bridge castle?

Bottom look better

>>713801597
What happened here? The final version is literally without shadows/lighting. Did the guys panic because they couldn't optimize the game and just decided to turn off the lighting and say "fuck it"?

>>713804383

The demo was on a console too.

Cloud seeding (formerly dangerous conspiracy theory of chemtrails, now a widely accepted fact).

>old stonework covered in decades of air pollution they'll never clean off to reveal what it was like when it was new
>plus any parts of it that might have been painted like the coat of arms are left blank and bland, if there were banners or other decorations they'll never replace them

It's not history or heritage at that point, it's just a tar covered mess you keep around for the sake of it. Any time I walk by old stonework in this "historic city" all I see is years of grime and neglect. It looks like shit.

>>713800670 (OP)
the old one looked too white and european and was making all the blacks and arabs uncomfortable

let me guess that bridge structure had barely any maintenance for 80 years, didn't comply with any safety codes, was straight up dangerous to be on and it would have costed a ton of money to "renovate" (rebuild it from scratch with the same look)

>>713805619
Exactly, it's simply a waste of money that could otherwise go towards building another holocaust memorial.

>>713800670 (OP)
I don't really like medieval architecture or styles that ape it. i think everything that came after the roman republic is corny as fuck.
it was briefly fixed by the industrial revolution and modernism, but then postmodernism set in and whatever the fuck is the fotm buzzword for contemporary architecture.

>>713805014
Yes
That is just it
Also the fact that since 2008, console games are played predominantly on shitty LCDs with poor as fuck contrast, making dark games actually unplayable.
The best example are Thief 1/2 before they hit consoles.

>>713800670 (OP)
Graphics are only one thing to optimize.
A skilled artist could make a great looking models and textures for a fraction of the file size and complexity the average Blender zoom zoom would provide.

However, the true magic of game optimization happens in code and shaders. Minimizing the draw calls, reducing AI or physics refresh rate / syncing / whatev from each frame or tick to just every third or less, pre-baking stuff that has no interactive elements and isn't seen up close...
this sort of stuff used to be commonly taught in High Schools.

>>713805619
No, they just needed to accomodate more car traffic and used the opportunity to remove architecture that was considered "revisionist" or "fascist" etc. That happened all over Europe.

>>713805619
it was also rebuilt in 1960, a time when people/governments in general weren't really interested in preserving history or culture.

>>713802087
>>713802605
its the jews fault you niggas bought cars and then demanded the whole city to be redesigned around cars?

>>713804868
in hindsight it probably shouldnt have come as a surprise than /v/ would defend gachashit

>>713806196
But I don't own a car. I've used public transportation my entire life.

>>713802070
cope, ranjeet. Just because your shithole country uses garbage computers and muddies up the stats doesn't mean your ps5 isn't a weak piece of shit

>this sort of stuff used to be commonly taught in High Schools.
Where?
I'm 36 and I remember my grade school not having a single PC.
And when I got to hschool, the best I could get was Paint and super basics in Delphi/Pascal.

>>713800670 (OP)
We live in a world where history is a lie.

>>713806874
true but that bridge tragedy happened in 1959

>>713807017
Weird, this looks like AI for some reason.

Why did he do it?

>>713800941
Only if you flip the before/after

>>713807278
Thank god I'm not a boomer or a pajeet.

>>713805143
Yes but a game lacking 80% of the features is easier to run.

>>713805849
The fallback in modern architecture is that you could always just fall back on DON'T adding any of the doodadds, and just make large rectangles of material and bolt on everything.

>>713801597
until someone fixes the armors and animations this game will never be playable for me

>>713802592
what the hell why are they uglifying the bridge?
>dude whatever I can't be asked to care about a bridge in the short time I have between work and sleep
>whatever the reason, it was probably for our own good, the government wouldn't do it otherwise
>wow, caring about a BRIDGE? yikes, I think I got the ick.....
>the old design was emblematic of white supremacy, the new one is diverse and inclusive
>I agree with you, the only solution is the final solution, I'm going to explain to every normalfag around us how the uglification of this bridge is linked to kikes and niggers and how killing every last one of them will save the west without any sort of preface or build up
>ummm source??? the science says the new design is 39% more pleasing to the eye
>*whips out phone* AYO THIS NIGGA CARE ABOUT A BRIDGE :skull: :skull: :skull:

>>713808850
It’s sad how all encompassing this is. I think you’ve got every demographic.

Lighting Engine looks like shit.
