Was Metro Exodus downgraded? E3 2017 trailer vs Final/Release version Comparison Videos

DSOGaming writes: "Metro Exodus has just been released and a lot of gamers have been wondering whether the game has been downgraded from its E3 2017 reveal trailer. And while we haven’t reached the outdoor level that was showcased in the E3 2017 reveal trailer, we’ve decided to share below two videos that compare the final version of the game with its E3 2017 build."

Of course it was the same thing happened with the Witcher 3 but regardless both games are still gorgeous.

You'd think by now gamers would realise its target renders for the games we see or a vast majority of them are pc builds

I still feel that's false advertisement and if they can't show something very close to final build then don't show anything. God of war was one of the few games that actually turned out better on release in many respects. Hopefully next gen will give us reveals that can deliver on final product. Til then, hope for the best but expect the worst lol

I could tell when they released first real gameplay vids it was downgraded. This is why I stopped watching E3. Seriously, do not watch e3 if you do not like being dissapointed and lied to. But Metro Exodus still looks good but nothing like that E3 vid

Nothing like? God, some of you are such hyperbolic drama queens. It mostly looks the same. And even where changes did take place I think the final build looks better in some cases. Not every change is a downgrade.

If I was a developer I would just stop showing anything until the last few weeks before release, since some gamers are too immature to understand that games in development are a work in progress. Things are going to be balanced, tweaked, rearranged and altered for both artistic and technical reasons.

In any case, I'm playing Metro Exodus on my PC and it's easily one of the best looking games I've ever seen or played.

Nate472648d ago (Edited 2648d ago )

I agree, but a work in progress isn't the same as revealing a game that will no doubt need to be downgraded to run on current hardware. If it's work in progress perhaps don't show the game running on a super powered PC with even prerendered moments passed as actual gameplay (anthem hub area).
(*Don't know about Exodus, I'm referring to these practices in general)

Unless it's a Sony exclusive, chances are things will be downgraded by release.

Sgt_Slaughter2649d ago

Nintendo releases actually get upgraded before release since graphics and polish are last on the list for development.

CP_Company2649d ago

Really? And where hundreds of articles how crackdown was downgraded? Media is in m$ pocket. We see these articles about sony games or others.

A lot of "downgraded" games are just perceived like that because fog was reduced / enhanced on some areas or the lightwork change all over the place, looks like models are on the same detail level as well as textures and animations, but there are lots of lightning and scenery changes, so... it may "look" like a downgrade, even if it's not.

And that's the same effin' story for almost (note the almost) all the games.

Kinda reminds me of miasmata also with how the navigation works. Not to miasmata's extent but definitely in the same vein
