Regarding RDR2: I swear devs are never going to get grass right. It's 2018, and undergrowth still looks pretty bad.



Really liking the look of RDR2. It's very organic. Whereas God of War for example looks great, but also kind of...idk...plastic. Something about it just looks off to me.

Rockstar released one pic in particular with the white horse that just kind of blew my mind as to how good it looked.

That and contact shadows as well. I've also found it irksome to seeing shadows jagging the hell out on games with day/night cycles. You can have high res shadows, but it won't stop them from getting jaggy as they move with time. 

Also crushed blacks. I'm glad we're seeing actual HDR support, but I wish every dev nailed their colours right (the 3D ones I mean).



Step right up come on in, feel the buzz in your veins, I'm like an chemical electrical right into your brain and I'm the one who killed the Radio, soon you'll all see

So pay up motherfuckers you belong to "V"

Im not a fan of hyper realism, so for me god of war has all beat so far. I find it amazing how it mixes nicely the hyper real characters and the fantasy monsters. So far the character of kratos and his son look better than any other game characters of this year selection so far. While the fantasy aspect is more personal and can vary with taste.



It takes genuine talent to see greatness in yourself despite your absence of genuine talent.

I wholeheartedly agree with this. I've never seen a 2D shader that was this convincing in any cell-shaded game with 3D character models.

 

So you have not seen Naruto Ultimate Ninja  Storm 4? That looks as identical to the anime... hell even better.

Cell shading wise, maybe it looks quite close to the anime. But seeing the game in action breaks the effect. Since it runs its animations at 60fps.

DBFZ, on the otherhand, nails the looks as well as the animation. Making the game quite a step above NUNS4 as far as getting the anime look right.

At some point, the game almost looks like it's made of HD 2D sprites.

Are you referring to most realistic visuals or best art style graphics as well?

Knowing the enthusiasm of CGI, I'd say it's about technical merit and the end result fidelity of the visuals.

Realism is usually where things are pushed the most in that regard, over games that settle for a simpler art-style, however good looking it may be.

I disagree..... 

I think GoW has this strange but good look i can't really put my finger on. I know it sounds cliche, but its like a painting come to life. Like if leonardo were to make an animated movie, this is what it would look like.

To me RDR as good as it looks.... looks familiar to me. Can't explain it either. But it  movef me less than GoW did. Like this pic for instance from GoW.
