Great content as usual CGI!
I really liked the pics you posted the other day in the Navi for PS5 thread. The biggest thing for me about the pics of Macy posted here is the way the dress looks. I really hope next gen we finally reach the point where clothes look like their own thing, and properly fit characters. The dress and bra on Macy look great, and I would love to see this in motion, to see how the cloth physics play out. If they can keep the physics proper, with this level of modeling, I will be very pleased.
I hope you will post some pics without the wet effect. I would love to see the level of detail you are expecting, with a standard character under normal conditions.
Looking at the forest, it again comes down to the physics and interactivity. At this level of detail, each leaf, each blade, each branch, and each rock, need to react properly. I still feel something is missing though in this scence. It doesn't really scream AAA next gen to me. I think we will see even more impressive stuff from 1st party studios even early on.
After seeing the trailers/gameplay demos of a few games at E3, my expectations for next gen are even higher. This gen is still impressing me as it is. Even with current gen, the modeling is looking really great, but the believability of things, once they are in motion is the biggest issue. Like I mentioned in the other thread, solving clipping issues, and making sure everything is interactive, with impeccable collision detection, is going to be a major factor for next gen. If we push the character models even further, but their arms clip when they are crossed, or their hair or weapon goes keeps passing through them, or foiliage passes through them, it is only going to become more and more jarring.
Stop hate, let others live the life they were given. Everyone has their problems, and no one should have to feel ashamed for the way they were born. Be proud of who you are, encourage others to be proud of themselves. Learn, research, absorb everything around you. Nothing is meaningless, a purpose is placed on everything no matter how you perceive it. Discover how to love, and share that love with everything that you encounter. Help make existence a beautiful thing.
