Who else would love this to be a real game in development?

I think most UE demos would make good games. Like The Samaritan for UE3 and Elemental for PS4.

so barely 1440p @ 30fps without RT pardon me?

Instead of seeking to convince others, we can be open to changing our own minds, and seek out information that contradicts our own steadfast point of view. Maybe it’ll turn out that those who disagree with you actually have a solid grasp of the facts. There’s a slight possibility that, after all, you’re the one who’s wrong.

I want to see it running on the Series X cause this was 1440p 30fps with no raytracing.



Argh!!! The beginning of the demo irks me!

Why would the lady ever light that blue fire up in the beginning? For illumination? If so, why would she immediately put it out? Why would she light up when there's clear and obvious light in front of her!?

Guessing it's for the audience to go 'oooh!' 'aaah!' at the graphics and lighting!

Argh! If so, Unreal guys should work on their writing! Don't break the fourth wall like that!

But it is...




remember :

unreal engine 5 demo run in real time on PS5 : 1440p/30fps with GI fully dynamic
hellblade 2 unreal 4 trailer run in engine on PC and not XSX : 1608p/24fps and not in real time an no RT

We're gonna have to disagree on that one. I've been following Raytracing comparisons for years and I'm always left with the feeling of "Ehh, I guess it looks a little bit better but it is not worth such a hit on performance."

I mean, when it is implemented on old/low polygon games, like Quake II or Minecraft, then the difference is astronomical, but when it is implemented in games that were already using other techniques to simulate lighting and reflexions, then the performance hit is not really worth it in my opinion.

Like on this game for example:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RNRp9Y33xWE&t=357s

In the time-frame 04:42 they show a comparison of Shadow RT OFF/ON and the game suffers a drop in performance of around 40% while looking almost exactly the same.

You can disagree, but it doesn't change anything. It isn't a waste of resources. You may not see a need for raytracing, but from first hand experience, it isn't. And you can only have seen realtime raytracing for a few years. Raytracing before that was mainly used in 3D art and certainly not a waste there either.

The only issue that realtime raytracing has had is lack of hardware to do it justice (as is always the case with newer technology).

its funny how RT was talked about during the 360/ps3 era and only now its going to get mainstream
