Chazore said: Yeah, but at the same time, you made it sound like the talent they already had, was worth next to nothing, as well as the tech and resources put behind it, because you basically compared it to current gen games, and made it out like next gen games are somehow going to "easily" surpass what SC is trying to do (entirely based around said hw specs of next gen systems, but we've all been down this road before with current gen, and last gen even).

I never ever said anything to that effect ever. I just said that what they have accomplished is not up to par with what those two games are specializing in, yet. I just think that AAA games are generally going to look up to par or better not because of leaked hardware specs, but because of what I have seen in being pioneered in games currently.

Star Citizen has worse lighting than Control.

Star Citizen has worse character models, and character doodad models than The Last of Us part II. TLOUpt2 is also better when it comes to visual physics (not gameplay physics) and animations.

Star Citizen has worse "variety and density of detail" in the distance compared to RDR2.

Those are observations I have made from following this game for years and even to this day. I was just pointing out specific areas where they aren't doing it better. It is your subjective opinion that you think it is all a waste as a consequence.

I never stated that they should copy anyone, nor did I say Rockstar and Naughty Dog are infallible gods. I didn't say it was in vain. That is all something you made up.

Have you played it? It looks absolutely gorgeous at 4k, definitely a next-gen leading title that brings down even high-end GPU's today... And the scope is breathtaking, if you don't have an SSD... Don't bother playing the game.

Digital Foundry also agrees as well.

Yes, I have played it and yes I have an SSD :)

The scope is also what I talked up as outmatching everything else. The consistency in detail is staggering. My point was just that I can find elements in the presentation done better elsewhere.
