I wish they redid RDR1 in RDR2's engine

This is a 25 year old game

It sure is.

>>715010347 (OP)
Gaming peaked 10-15 years ago. There is no reason for companies to pursue that extra 5-10% of 'improved graphics,' when you can hardly see any difference. They could be making games of this caliber, that run buttery smooth and could ship faster, but then they wouldn't be able to justify their bloated staff.

>>715011309
ITS NOT TEN YEARS OLD
…
Right? Oh god…

>>715010347 (OP)
You console peasants are pathetic. I can run this game on my 90k gaming rig without breaking a sweat. I’m 45 years old diabetic fuck, living in my parents basement but at least my PC is superior! I am part of the master race!! Peasants!!!

>>715011448
No, it's 7 years old. Going on 8.

>>715010546
BERRIES and mushrooms you fool

>>715011309
what's with the shitty filters?

>>715011545
and it will still be a benchmark in 2 years

>>715010347 (OP)
It looks like it. Those character models are hideous.

>>715010347 (OP)
No it's not.

>>715011634
i was thinking the same, john looks like an action figure of a cowboy

>>715010347 (OP)
Played it upscaled to 5k and was blown away how good it looked.

im really not seeing, looks exactly like new vegas except without the piss filter.

>>715011769
>game looks good when it's 4 times the initial resolution
well, yeah

>>715011445
>hurrr le diminishing returns!

>>715012058
That's not always the case thoughever. Especially with older games

This is a 15 year old video game

NTA but pores and facial hair are a waste of time.

This is a 17 year old guy

>>715012621
Jesus fucking christ!
I'm playing Prince of Persia the Sands of time and all I did to improve the visuals was
Add debanding, amd sharpness, ambient light and grain effect.

this is a 5 year old game..

Graphics have been plateauing for at least a decade anon. They can only get so good.
Style has always been the best choice

>>715010696
for me its the double action revolver

>>715012709
>>715012715
>>715012719

Looks good on a 800:1 IPS.

>>715013046
neigh, I mean nay, that cannot be true

here til this becomes a TAA hate thread

>>715010347 (OP)
Damn look at those retro graphics

>>715012952
bumpmap.fx is also very nice in old vidyas. gives a free resolution bump to almost anything. look at those rocks

>>715013250
i feel like i can touch those ferns..

>>715010347 (OP)
The last truly good Rockstar game. RDR2 was fucking horrendous, a game so far up its own ass and rife with elongated, tedious animations for everything.

>>715012337
I need to get back to my latest FNV run, it's been months since I touched it.

>>715012621
looks like a 2013 game with awfully tasteless overuse of reshade

this is a month old game

>>715010347 (OP)
Running at a modern resolution.

>>715012769
dude sex is so much better without the piss filter
shame that the ending is just like
"lol that's it"

this is a 0 years old game...

>>715013534
What if I forget hmm? You expect me to pause the game, go into the settings menu, then the submenu of key bindings? I think not.

>>715013575
>all windows intact
so fake. like cmon russians do like throwing people outta windows

>>715011625
lol no, rdr2 looks like garbage except for the view distance

>>715013575
Well MD never had the piss filter.

>>715013704
(they're not intact)

ubisoft always wins

>>715013657
>dude, gamma 1.8 lmao

>>715013657
i wonder if the path traced fog effect released on marty's patreon could do a better job at fogging up obscur 33 after leaving the original fog layers disabled

i used to check on this guy every day because he always had dozens of comments calling his enb shit and he'd reply to every one, whining, then he just started wiping his pages completely and reuploading, but it was kino while it lasted

>>715013867
ubisofts only positive quality is their map design/quality
everything else is shit

>>715010347 (OP)
Better than its sequel

>>715013342
Looks pretty nice! How does it works? does it requires a depth mask? Because in Prince of Persia I can't add depth masked effect since I'm running another injector for bigger resolutions
So I'm ussing these simple effects to improve the visuals.

>>715013987
actually, RDR2 is a prequel ;)

>>715013985
Theyre nice walking sims

>>715013981
fuck i should've posted this one it's so much better https://www.nexusmods.com/newvegas/mods/82583

>>715010347 (OP)
>looks good
But is it fun though?

>>715014169
this hurts my eyes to look at if i am being honest, like when i look away i am seeing spots and shit

Oh it shows.

>>715014056
no depth required for this effect. i wish someone did make a v2 of with depth based filtering tho
>how it works
no idea :D
here's the link to the shader btw https://raw.githubusercontent.com/guestrr/ReshadeShaders/refs/heads/master/Bumpmapping.fx

>>715014062
Touché

the point still stands.

>>715010347 (OP)
This is a PS5 game that's being released in September 2025. Are you impressed by the visual fidelity?

this is a 9 year old game

Change your filename Neil.

>>715010347 (OP)
And better than RDR2 regarding writing.

This is a 23 year old game

>>715014379

>>715014730
True, I lost my division 1 screenshots though :(

>>715012621
bro, your eyes are broken

>>715014474
Looks 20

>>715013981
no. muted colors are simply the slow bleed of a lifeless hell. why would anyone want that?

>>715013046
actually it got ported this year
the game's amazing looking still

>>715014920
Nta but Colorado/California/Texas doesn't look like this.

>>715014920
so true bestie!

>>715014958
2d sprites in current year

>>715014920
Your game looks like a fucking doritos

>>715013046
Hello, Neil.

>>715012621

Days Gone is fairly similar but not as great
At least its story isn't complete shit filled with woke retard shit

>path traced volumetric fog
https://youtu.be/PImgAUIoyZw?t=81
now you can add unreal 5 effect to every game

>>715014323
Holy shit! I just tried it! The way it makes the leather pop, the water cascade now looks like actual water falling through
The wall textures now are noticeable and rugged, nice!
Thank you so much!

>>715015225
yea I liked days gone. shame about the sequel.

>>715010347 (OP)
yeah and it looks like shit and plays like shit

>>715014323
>>715015807

>>715015887
>plays like shit
It's rdr1 retard not 2

>>715014958
That actually looks really good, add a bit of noise, maybe a subtle blur and passes as an actual photo.

>>715010347 (OP)
Real question. Do you think Dutch would've ever gone to Tahiti?
It sounds like a crazy idea because I don't think there were ships who sailed from the US east coast to that island that is to the west of South America.

You may not believe it and it may shock you but this is ingame graphics for a 2011 game.

*turns 90° and it all turns in to a playdough impressionist painting*

>>715017618
How about not playing on a 5400rom HDD anon.

>>715017618
There was a patch for that, adding or editing some cfg files.
>>715017334
That looks spectacular, i did not remember it looked that good, damn.

>>715011158
this is a heavily modded 25 year old game, yes.

>>715017694

*turns 90º*

>>715017914
>That looks spectacular, i did not remember it looked that good, damn.
The outdoor areas do look great and they always did. The problem is anything indoors and up close is awful. Everything is compressed to shit.

If only id software would release the supposed 1tb uncompressed assets.

>>715017193
crysis 1 and final fantasy 13 are the oldest games you can mention that still look fucking great

>>715012337
FNV looked insanely dated when it came out. same with FO3. bethesda games have always been graphically unimpressive.

>>715017994
based

>>715018141
Yeah the megatextures concept was a wild one. I really don't know what were they really thinking with that one.

2003 gamecube game

>>715018290
they were thinking "we want a game that looks on par with our contemporaries with proper open world level streaming that runs at 60fps on a ps3"
it's genuinely an impressive game from that perspective, but it was never meant to be a screenshot game

>>715013169
double action is the best up until you can get the LeMat

>>715010347 (OP)
Yeah, it's quite noticeable
Are there any mods to make it look better?

>>715018159
thanks captain obvious

>>715011309
>>715011448
PC version is just 6 years old

>>715018436
The last non 60fps game id software shipped was what, quake 1? I forget how well quake 2 ran on hardware of the time.

This is a 9 years old game

>>715018402
that does look like gamecube though which is good that era looked good but not amazing. Y2K & Fruitger Aero aesthetics are based.

>>715018485
Not sure, but is this good?

This is also a 9 years old game

>>715011445
objectively the based and correct opinion, Rockstar and many others keep shooting themselves in the foot purusing the graphicsfags and spics who care about that shit

>>715014571
Why does it looks worse than 1?

stiff hair but looks amazing

This is an 11 years old game

this is a 3 year old game

>>715019086
and..well...there it is...

This game is about to be 37 years old

>>715010347 (OP)
You can tell
It looks like 7th gen brown and piss shit

>>715018781
sure, im just saying its a very graphically impressive game. same goes for optimization. it has an amazing style with lots of detail, lots of assets on screen and manages to retain a stable 60 fps. this is an fascinating video if you are interested in the game and how it compares to contemporaries and even games released way later. all footage in the video is also captured on the gamecube with no upscaling or emulation so you really get the genuine footage of the game in high quality.

>>715019517
can make any game look good with depth of field

>>715019551
i don't believe you

>>715010347 (OP)
And it runs at a fraction of the technical and data size demands of modern games.
>>715012065
Diminishing returns are real though, the problem is that they keep pursuing higher-end models and more and more detailed levels. I could barely run Starfield on its lowest settings at 15-20FPS despite running Fallout 4 at its high settings and the games not looking that much different from each other.

>>715012896
pores and facial hair are fancy texturing and not a model thing but they do still eat up drive space for those high res textures

>>715018810
>last updated dec 2024
great he abandoned a broken overhaul pack that worked flawlessly when the best alternative was emulating the switch version

>>715012709
>>715012621
mountain dew filter?

The pursuit of photorealism is a mistake

>>715015807
>>715015901
np enjoy. looks good. i can see the fake added detail on the stones easily.
hows your shader order look like? asking because the grain looks just a little too sharp, possibly from being placed too high in the shader list, above sharpening. from top to bottom it should look like: deband, ambient light, bumpmap, sharpening, bloom, LUTs, filmgrain

>>715012621
ROCKSTAR HIRE THIS MAN

>>715013575
They goofed up the windows. Otherwise really good, thought it was a picture of the real place for a second.

>>715019475
And it still mogs half the AAA slop that came out this year lmao. Devs used to know how to work within hardware limits and squeeze out actual style and performance, not just brute force 400GB texture packs that tank FPS anyway. That trailer still looks clean, and you can actually tell what’s going on without motion blur vomiting all over the screen.

>>715023337
I have it like this
Deband.fx
Bumpmapping.fx
CAS.fx
Ambientlight.fx
Lightroom.fx
PD80_06_Film_Grain.fx

>>715023337
>>715024046
I like the grain effect in motion because it helps fake skin texture, organic textures and helps blend those sharp pre-baked shadows, maybe in screenshot looks too noisy but in motion it's pretty good.

Games have better mecanics and are more fun today. You're sad and projecting your depression onto media. Stop consuming youtube slop. Its time to grow.

Visual still holds up

>>715010347 (OP)
It was a different time

>>715013342
>>715014056
its basically a sharpen filter that gets applied on the textures as they are detected by reshade

>>715012621

You deep fried your game

This is a game from 2013.

>>715014062
amazing how good games look without thoughtlessly cranking up atmospheric perspective/fog/whatever
rdr2 just has this massive, impressive sense of space that similar games lack

still kino, still unsurpassed, still makes niggas mad

>>715011309

No way Cyberpunk 2 will be as good as this.
Especially with the Indian hiring
