| Viper1 said: Heavy Rain is actually a 2 year old tech demo. The game itself will not have the characters, settings or level of detail as the tech demo. The first real instance of Uncanny Valley seen in video games came about in sports titles just a few years ago (2005 I think). The players would animate very well, skin texture was decent but the eyes were dead. The didn't move, blink, etc... It gave the appearance of playing a bunch of zombies. We're still another graphical generation away before it becomes a valid problem. |
You're right. It's almost certain that the actual game will have a higher level of detail then the two year old tech demo.
"Quantic Dream highlighted, that the technology demo is just a sample of things achievable in a limited amount of time, and that during the making of the prototype, they still were in the middle of research and development efforts."
