"We're actually doing real-time cutscenes in Uncharted 4, which is a new step for us. You're not going to see those black bars that we used to have in between gameplay and cutscenes. That's going to let us be so much more expressive and really get that seamless-ness between the storytelling and the gameplay. Which we already do very well, but it's going to allow us to take it to that next level."

"That super great-looking Nathan Drake that's in the cutscenes--that's going to be the guy you have the whole time. The lighting model is nearly identical. All of that emotion you get across in the cutscenes, you'll have in gameplay all the time."

Was that so hard?

Yikes... how he was able to see the gameplay but couldn't see the in-game models.... is beyond me.  That takes skill. 

It appears you are ignoring all that I said previously. gameplay has only showed the back of characters models. if they are truly the same as the ones in cutscenes, they would have shown close ups of characters front during gameplay.

read above.

360 turns during cutscenes are irrelevant, as I stated multiple times that I need in-game confirmation. whenever actual gameplay (control) starts, the characters are showing their back to the camera.

Also, this "need" is the only thing that can prove the character models are/aren't the same between cutscenes and in-game. And no, no gameplay video properly showed them (again, stated and explained multiple times).

That falls in line with previous quotes, not adressing the subject. Not only it talks only about cutscenes not being totally pre rendered, it proves nothing as it's just a bunch of words. I need visual proof.

Yeah right dude.  You are obviouly not looking for info.  No amount of anything will EVER satisify you.  So its a good thing we don't have to satify your own personal grudges and vendettas.   You asked for info and people provided, then you reject it for so arbitrary reason and they still continue to offer you more only to have you reject it for some subjective internal reasoning.  

I prefer the hand, watch and sweat in 2015. The rest is to dark to tell in 2016 on Drake. The wall detail is better in 2016 though.

Are you saying characters are not capable of turning around during cutscenes? what's interactive about that? the scenes where the characters do 360s are during cutscenes. In no actual GAMEPLAY moment do we see that and thus, we don't properly see the front of characters.

Fine fair enough.

So...I assume you didn't watch the video where Nate is in the flipped over jeep huh? You know, the part where he is being controlled by the player, right up close to the camera...

But that's really besides the point honestly...You're saying that unless you see some obscure piece of evidence (which is easy to find you just look for it) you're going to assume the developer is flat out lieing about their game?
