I swear you fucks don't know a single thing about how video games are made

It should be illegal to false-advertise like this, regardless of the presence of a "not finished product, may change" loophole trickery.

>lets have a downgrade thread
that playable demo is not even in the game. that's not a downgrade that's just false advertising.
Juan Brown
Look at this shill. Fuck you.
Andrew Nguyen

Ayden James
>I swear you fucks don't know a single thing about how video games are made

Blake Ross
Chase Hill
Isaiah Gray
Michael Cooper

Wyatt Diaz
Dominic Sanchez

Charles Morgan

Landon Green
>My dad works at Nintendo, everything I say is automatically true!
Fuck you.
Wyatt Johnson
So are these target footage videos unplayable and just rendered using 3d max or whatever to mimic live gameplay, or are they actually captures from a internal playable build?
Alexander Gray
Lincoln Campbell
Are there any games that held up to expectations?
Jaxon Perez
Colton Diaz
I made it just now, I didn't even look at the image in full.
But I need not to look into details, because by the time I've done it, they are nowhere to be found.
Josiah Green
cdpr are saving this version for witcher 3 remaster on ps5/xbsx
Hunter Collins
has there ever been a single game that came out looking better than promotional material? what's even the point of these threads?
Julian Moore
Being some indie devs janitor isn't quite "in the industry", user...
Chase Turner
Julian Taylor
So weird that this is allowed and common. Should be false advertising.
Alexander Kelly
these are prerendered, movies basically. its for the all the developers and some other high ups maybe to show what they are going aiming for. its pretty common
in that AC3 case, they got it super close
Isaiah Cook
Actually the final game is much better than the shit nomura showed us back then. Fuck this dude just look at vii remake xv is much better than this crap.
Gabriel Reyes

lets have a downgrade thread
To post pictures showing that the game looks worse post-release than it does pre-release
Nathaniel Bell
Doom 2016 I believe
Lincoln Baker
you didn't play the game. that's not downgraded, it's literally a different scene.
Grayson Murphy
This.
Ryan Scott
Wonderful 101 looked terrible when they revealed it
Jaxon Robinson
tf2
Xavier Robinson
How about an upgrade?
Parker Allen
You're an idiot.
Nicholas Myers
i've played this game. apart from the lower resolution it's the same. no real downgrade here.
Levi Clark

Games that got the worst downgrades in my opinion:
Watch Dogs
Witcher 3
Final Fantasy XV
Dark Souls 2
Metal Gear Solid V
Assassin's Creed games, ironically.

Why is it always the lighting? In every single one of these examples the lighting in the finished product is complete dogshit compared to what they show and it makes the game look like complete ass.
Chase Murphy
Gabriel Diaz
Ethan Green
soul downgrade
Benjamin Edwards
Juan Perry
blurry ass, compressed to oblivion livestream vs high res trailer is not upgrade thi.
>You're an idiot.
how so? time stamped it for you

Isaiah Wilson
Far Cry 5
Jack Clark
Christian Taylor
>Metal Gear Solid V
you posted a pic that the final games looks better. I swear some of you people being alive is a crime against nature.
Eli Walker
good lighting is pretty resource-intensive and easier to tone down than already-made assets
Ryan Cook

I AM STILL SO FUCKING MAD REEEEEEEEEE
Oliver James
Unironically ray tracing. Lighting is VERY taxing on any rendering engine, we presentations tend to use upgraded lighting algorithms in order to make their games look better.
Liam Hill
I still don't know why they had to lie like that when the finished product has good enough visuals to pass as a current gen game 10+ years later.
Kayden Cruz
>timestamped the downgraded scene
now timestamp the "different" scene
Nathaniel Diaz
dont open
Caleb Davis
dude its literally okay when nintendo does it, fuck you
Brayden Reed
Ooof
Michael Torres
these are literally false advertising
Thomas Rodriguez
I forgot about this one. This is the worst downgrade of them all.
The top is final, the game got rid of the atmosphere and applied a piss filter.
Lucas Jones
Hunter Bell
Holy shit you are life-threateningly stupid. How does it being a different scene mean the game isn't downgraded? You are a demented retard.
Christian Lewis
Owen Nguyen
Doom 2016
Red Dead Redemption 2
Death Stranding
Luke Perry
you have to have a high IQ to understand this one
Samuel Myers
lol The Witcher 3 downgrade was fucking hilarious
the devs were constantly asked if it is downgraded and they denied it even a week before release
then after the game released they just went and said "oh yeah its downgraded haha"
Gavin Watson
Arkham Knight was never downgraded and still looks amazing.
Juan Adams
Everyone in this thread really needs to have sex.

Because they (Guerilla) didn't lie, the video wasn't supposed to be shown to the public as an example of KZ2
>Guerrilla Executive Producer Angie Smets describes the explosive, combat-filled sequence to Noclip as an "internal vision video about what first-person games could look like for the next generation." Part of the reason this video was "meant for internal use only," Smets tells Noclip, is that the shooter sequel was originally intended to launch on the weaker PlayStation 2.
>Cut to a few months later, however, and former PlayStation executive Ken Kutaragi took the 2005 E3 stage to wow the crowd with teases of what to expect on the PlayStation 3 console. "We asked developers to submit content to be shown today," he told that E3 keynote crowd, and the sizzle reel that followed included Guerrilla's "internal vision" video. Guerrilla wasn't expecting it.
>Smets recalls watching the video in Amsterdam via an Internet feed and hearing a PlayStation rep describe the Killzone footage as "running in real time on a PlayStation 3." "We were watching this back home, going, 'No!'" Smets says. "What did he just say? It's not true! Then we figured, nobody will believe that, because it's obvious that it's all [pre]-rendered. Then we went online, and we found that lots of people believed it."

>what is dishonesty
Joshua Hughes
we have people asking for remakes of games that don't need it
wait didn't they did a remaster of that and looked worse than the original?
Daniel King
DO you think the downgrade had to do with the actual technology or the shift away from The Witcher 2 aesthetic and style?
Ethan Flores
WD2 should've just improved on the graphics, not the SJW shitshow it ended up to be
Thomas Ramirez
Joseph Barnes
It's a pre-rendered scene in the game
