why games no longer look like this?
this game was made with unreal engine. unreal engine nowadays looks like shit

>>720318976 (OP)
why rajeesh no do english

>>720318976 (OP)
making something like that requires "effort" and "art direction"

american is cool

>>720318976 (OP)
Because all modern games must be made for outdated consoles so that minorities can play games too.

>>720319049
stop projecting saar it's just a minor grammar mistake

>>720319303
OP's pic was made for PS3 and X360

>>720318976 (OP)
The issue with UE5 is that the games look really, really bad if you aren't running on at least high settings. Not good for poorfags.

>>720318976 (OP)
Looks AI generated, I doubt this is even a real game.

good morning sir

Alice: Madness Returns

>>720319581
It's Alice:Madness Returns from 2011

>>720318976 (OP)
Look like what exactly? Looks fundamentally the same as today except the assets are way less detailed and jaggies out of the ass.

>>720318976 (OP)
How did they achieve that lighting without temporal rendering techniques and lumen??

UE3 was a fucking horrendous piece of garbage and I'm glad it's gone
At least UE4 and UE5 can look decent when they aren't shitting themselves

>>720320449
>At least UE4 and UE5 can look decent when they aren't shitting themselves

but UE4 and UE5 are ALWAYS shitting themselves

>>720318976 (OP)
do you have any idea how difficult it is to make that pic
you'd need not only a master artists but ones that are also intimate with the engine

>>720320229
good artists
that's it
people who were doing their job and had some talent and vision
now everything is mocapped rendered by the engine etc so you just need to get some programmer monkey to mash things together
that's literally it. because the game engines are much more powerful there is no need for talent and effort, cause normies just gawk at the graphics
normies don't really give a shit about well done animation or nicely done lighting or framing or backgrounds or any of that shit. they're animals. they just see the graphics and think the game looks good
have you seen porn? it looks like shit, it's animated like shit. it's shit. people love it. people fap to unfappable shit because they just need the visual prompt of a giant nigger ass
I'm gonna laugh when everything will be offloaded to AI cause normalniggers jumped on the bandwagon, you haven't seen anything, you're going to miss shitty mocapped 2020 facial animation

nobody ever talks about the GAMEplay of this game lmao

>>720321169
it's kind of janky (especially on pc)

but it's fun

Adding to this there are some amazing notes on art direction by Valve on Team Fortress 2. Regardless of what you think about TF2 the notes show how much fucking work and talent and vision went into developing the graphics. The artistic style was merged with the engine to create something unique. There were artists at work. Now it's just facescan some thot and have the 3D artist make her jaw bigger and eyes smaller so that she looks like a tranny and you can cash in on DEI funds then you dump that garbage into the 3D engine at default settings with some greenshit filter on it and make a fucking walking simulator. Apenigger normies will buy it and play it and then forget it exists the next week. I fucking hate normalniggers. Whenever you ask yourself "how did this thing go so wrong" the answer is ALWAYS stupid ape-brained retarded normalniggers. You have fucking arrows on the ground telling you where the fuck to do because of stupid 60IQ monkeys making up for the majority of the fucking planet. I fucking hate normies so much.

>>720319431
Like I said, outdated and for minorities

>>720319558
UE5 looks just as shitty on low and high graphics settings, with the difference that on high you get 15 fps.

>>720321918
No. You said new games have to look shitty because of the outdated consoles. Meaning, PS5 and Xbox X, because new games are not coming out on anything older. Meanwhile, the OP show a game from the Xbox 360 and PS3 era that looks better than anything released today on Unreal Engine 5.

Carried by art style, there were plenty of ugly generic looking unreal engine 3 games too, and this game still has various issues associated with that, like pop in that you still see in unreal engine 5 games since it'll never load the assets in the actual load screen, only immediately after the load screen is over or when you look at it first

gayme needs to be:

>gempley
>high fidelity for the fps cost

Say anything else and your a pseud

you get what you deserve

Butter what?

>>720318976 (OP)

>>720322585
soulless

This is so fucking good. Still mad at all the cut stuff.

>>720318976 (OP)
The problem is the modern UE versions.

>>720327450
It looks very soulful to me picrel is the artbook though.

Knowing American McGee he’s probably Chinese.

Thread should have ended here

>>720326209
Do you have an archive of your collages environment anon? You have a good eye, you were cataloging BG3’s above average environment design while everyone was shitposting.

It sucks were never getting Asylum

>>720328792
I never played BG3

Does the game even work now that the NVIDIOTS removed physx

>>720329497
Then that must’ve been someone else

>>720329808
I saved this one

>>720318976 (OP)
really sad how modern games can't even do static hair without dithering

>>720329878
Act 2 and 3 had very good environmental art direction. I think Act 1 is a lot shoddier looking in retrospect because they built it using DOS2 resources.

>>720318976 (OP)
All games nowadays use generic PBR shaders which suck the soul out of everything.

>>720318976 (OP)
Sorry you can't crank up UE5 games, Sanjay.
