Why do normalfags always have such low standards? Every time a new game comes out they always scream OMG BEST GRAPHIXX EVER even though over 80% of the time the game has muddy textures, abhorrent LOD and shitty fake screen effects that barely hide the true ugliness of the game. To achieve the ""best graphics" you need to have excellent art design, excellent textures, excellent models and excellent lighting. In the past the title of the best visuals went to Crysis 3 but now I'm afraid games like Battlefield 1 and V win. Almost all their models are photo-scanned and the lighting is excellent. Their environment designers are skilled and every level has god tier atmosphere.
Too bad that the gameplay itself is atrocious and the overall perfect visuals are ruined due to fake SJW player customization and niggers running around. Star Wars Battlefront also has god-tier foliage and lighting.
Visuals-wise the only thing DICE suffers from is having to make these games run on consoles. If these games were designed for PC they would look like those Photogrammetry demos you see on CryEngine/UE4. You can see the dumbed down visuals such as grass and shadows not rendering from far away, textures going muddy from a certain distance, etc.

My problem with both Witcher 3 and BDO is that their ultra-realistic high fidelity art direction just DOES NOT WORK together with flashy colorful special effects and cartoony monsters those games are filled with. They just break any sort of immersion and plunge way past uncanny valley into some fucking artistic hell.
Faggot Fantasy 15 also has this problem. It tries to be realistic and then spawns Iron Giants on your ass.
And if you start examining shit like models and textures you'll still see shitty compression, polygons up the ass and clipping everywhere.

But not anyone can afford the $40,000 scanner to make their art look like this. Which is why you'll never see indie games like this. Naughty Dogs workflow is less about creating art and more just scanning shit into the art program and tweaking the data. Its a good workflow actually but expensive as fuck.
In terms of rendering tech, there's nothing spectacular about the engine, PBS makes everything look photoreal, anyone can do this, most engines support it.

batman did have some great graphics, but for me the fact that the camera never goes in for a closeup makes the game look better. getting close to the textures really starts to look mediocre. take this railing for instance. from far away it looks real because of the effects, but when youre near. and i dont even mean super close. (batman, who looks good closeup for cutscenes… and they make sure you know that with the fact that he takes up 1/3 of the fucking screen at all times.)

Interiors are the easiest to make. There isn't much to render and you have full control of the lighting for each room. There are many games - even indieshit - that look just as good as Uncharted's interiors if not better. Mostly by horror games such as P.T or The Beast Inside. Pic related some examples. There also this one horror game made with Cry Engine but I forgot what it's called. It had excellent interior lighting.
As for games that look better than Uncharted:
Star Wars Battlefront A few examples. The screenshots aren't that high-res but still https://imgur.com/gallery/GinWK#pyb64DQ
Star Wars Battlefront II
Battlefield I
Battlefield V

BDO not really high level graphics, it is photo-realism and has a lot of pre baked shadows and other tricks to look nice in screenshots but it's not real time done, it is an MMO, it wouldn't fly with all that shit being done in real time.
Now i haven't played many games in the last years but it seems the ol Metro, Crysis 3, and recently FF XV, Mankind Divided, Far Cry 5, Tomb Raider games are the ones that hold the roof.
I'd argue photo realism works well for some games but not all games should be done with these super high resolution realistic textures . Personally i enjoy the way Dark Souls games / Blood Borne look, they are really eye pleasing while not being too realistic.

All I’ve learned from this thread is that every angle game where the greatest crutch is GRAFFIX has been the most shallow horseshit I’ve ever had the displeasure of playing. Every game posted in this thread was mediocre at best. Even Crysis falls apart in the second half of the game.

Crysis was a tech demo.

Yes, check video related. Look where the water surface touches the rocks, you can see it actually moving up and down. Most "water" now is just shiny effects on top of a flat surface.

Hey you graphics fags, is the majora's mask or orcania of time texture packs worth the download? I remember seeing a comparison between the 3ds and n64 graphics and the n64 was more detailed, so I was wondering if that was the case here too. If not what pack should I download and gimmi a link.
