What? So much wrong with your post.

Visuals is part of showing off the engine. They explain how much easier it is to achieve greater detail in UE5 such as not having to have varying levels of textures that pop in or having to implement baked lighting. This is part of the engine. The 'marketing/PR message' (as you like to put it) for Epic was "look at what our engine can do," for Sony it was "look at what's possible on the PS5."

What Outlawzz said lmao

If that's the point of the article. . . then you and the writer are missing the point of a game engine. . .

Gameplay and Story is all up to developers. They are the ones that have to be creative and think up of new and refreshing interactions in games. A game engine like Unreal are there to make a developer's job easier instead of having to do everything from scratch.

"if it was running at 1440p/30 yes 100% people would roast"

Why though? I just don't get this at all. Let be real it's all a d*ck measuring contest. Nobody really thinks 1440p is bad or that 30fps is bad. Just the other day people were defending MS's decision to not mandate 60fps as minimum. If a SX game runs sub Native 4K are Xbox fans gonna complain or are they gonna brag about how it's still higher than the PS5 version? If the answer is not the...

What are you talking about? Why would 30fps not be okay? If it's 30fps on SX it will be 30fps on the PS5.

And I'm pretty sure that some of the people that were saying 60fps should be minimum are the same people that were bragging about dirt being 120fps only to flip on that narrative once MS came out and said they wouldn't mandate it. Funny how this demo is "only" 1440p but looks better than the 4k games recently shown... hope all SX games are 4k stand...

Now that I know the resolution and FPS, I'm no longer impressed by the demo. How "unfortunate".

windowscentral is a joke

Really? You're comparing Valhalla to what is shown here?

And PC gamers. . .

"Heck the vast majority of games now don't look as good as the UE4 tech demo"

The games that aim to push the hardware look better than the UE4 tech demo imo.

"But games won't look as good as the tech demo."

DF actually touched on this topic. They said that in this case they believe that what was shown off could possibly be matched or even be surpassed by gen's end. Saying that demos shown...

"Kind of makes you wonder why Epic does that when Sony doesn't even use UE for their games (only one this gen was Days Gone). Epic is really trying to swoon Sony "

You do realize that Sony isn't the only one that makes games for PS consoles right? Just because Sony's studios don't use the engine doesn't mean that showing UE5 running on PS5 is a odd choice. And it has nothing to do with 'swooning' Sony. They're just showing what thei...

This was the visual leap I wanted to see. We are finally seeing what next gen is capable of. Was starting to get worried a bit.

Nah, they should stick to their own engines. If it ain't broke don't fix it. They've had great success using and building their own tech and should continue to do so.

"If China's government and the WHO had been honest from the beggining, every country in the world would have been better prepared to handle the pandemic. I'm from Portugal and we have a low fatality rate and have been doing a relatively good job containing the spread of the virus because our government saw what was happening particularly in Italy and Spain and had time to prepare before the 1st cases started hitting our country."

Yes and no, notice how you...

The virus would have spread regardless. I'm not saying that China did everything right, but even if they had, nothing would have changed regardless of how China handled the situation. Unless you're going to tell me that the US and Europe were going to shut down flights going in and out of their respective countries IMMEDIATELY upon hearing the news, it was always going to spread. Remember we didn't act until it was evident that the virus had touchdown here. Prior to that everyone ...

" Because of China* "

Don't think countries like the US would have handled it any better had the virus started out here or elsewhere. Remember we had people calling it a hoax invented by a political party at point.

And 2TF of heaven waiting for them as well, unless they're exclusive?

"Why is this so damn hard?"

Clicks!

Notice the "so read the article" part in the update. He thinks he's slick!

@Above

I'm talking about at LAUNCH. Not year or the next few months.

It doesn't impact anything as they'll sellout regardless. When it comes to home console launches, supply is almost always lower than demand because having like 5-8 million consoles at the ready just isn't feasible. They'll most likely have 1-2 millions consoles at launch and it well sellout.

Then complain to each and every developer that chooses to release their game below 60fps. The hardware manufacturer is just giving them the tools to play with.

There is nothing negative about allowing developers to do whatever they want. Stop pretending to be upset.
