[karasu]

Gonna go hire a writer to help him out.

Hire a few, and a new director too. His direction comes out of a Lifetime movie.

 

[NeoGeoOwner]

DAMN. It seems like Sony is up for the challenge. Not sure about the other companies. Makes me question my XBox One preorder.

Yours,

Franck

 

[RoboPlato]

Actually, none of them did. So there's that.

Rewatch them. Heavy Rain looks better than The Audition and Beyond looks considerably better than Kara.

 

[mui]

It's not that hard when you make games that are basically interactive movies.

 

[Tagyhag]

I can see that, especially since that tech demo offered a little bit less interactivity than his usual games.

 

[bigboss370]

Now we just need a video game to put in there.

 

[nbnt]

Someone link that incredible looking indie game where you play as the robot. Sadly can't think of the title at the moment. 2 person team.

It's RESET http://reset-game.net/

I was wondering. How do you get these shots? Do you search them out? Or screenshot from your PS3(if that's even possible)?

Capture card.

Now imagine Rockstar making GTA VI on the PS4 with a thousand people...

Spoiler

25fps.

 

[Papercuts]

Beyond is crazy good looking, so I'm excited to see what they pump out.

 

[bigboss370]

I want a full game out of the KARA demo. Sadly it probably won't happen

 

[koutoru]

Realistically, you'll get whatever quality the developers feel like giving you.

 

[ALBOFIGHTER]

damn bold statement. The dark sorcerer graphics is what I might expect at the very end of next gen. It's a whole different level.

 

[Glorified G]

Now imagine Rockstar making GTA VI on the PS4 with a thousand people...

It will still be sub 30fps like all the other console GTA's

 

[Satchel]

Rewatch them. Heavy Rain looks better than The Audition and Beyond looks considerably better than Kara.

I platinumed Heavy Rain. It wasn't even close to the Audition.

Even Beyond, the footage being shown in TV spots doesn't come close to Kara.

I think some are seeing what they want to see. Final games never look anything like controlled, minimal tech demos. This goes for all consoles.

 

[UrbanRats]

Well their tech demos never lied, if anything, they were subpar compared to their final games.

 

[killatopak]

Lets see KARA made into a full game. That was interesting.

Yes. It has a very interesting concept.

 

[SpecDotSign]

I like what I saw in that Kara tech demo - from a story perspective. Lets see them turn that into a game.

 

[killatopak]

No way... You must have watched a different audition cause the one I watched didnt age well. AT all

 

[belmonkey]

It's not that hard when you make games that are basically interactive movies.

Don't they also tend to work on a small scale as well? As in, taking the entirety of a large area that a game would normally render and condensing it into a really small space so it looks good. At least that's what I hear.

 

[NullPointer]

Yep. After just finishing Beyond Two Souls earlier tonight... this.

It's a 3 person team but one is a sound guy so it's essentially a 2 person team.

1080p/60fps on PS4, 60fps on native res on the Vita.

Edit: lol I'm wrong it was actually reset.

 

[EightBitNate]

So help me, if we don't get a PS4 game about the robot girl (Kara?) from them, I'm gonna be pissed.

 

[MangoMoustache]

I was wondering. How do you get these shots? Do you search them out? Or screenshot from your PS3(if that's even possible)?

The latest CFW's enable screenshots in every game. You basically just hit the PS button and navigate to photo, then hit save screenshot. Previously it was a developer by developer thing. These are some shots I took straight from the PS3 with the 16:9 rendering trick.

 

[DirgeExtinction]

I would have hoped more devs would have enabled screenshots in their games.

 

[Duckhuntdog]

The graphics should be amazing when all you have to do is process controller inputs and not a fully dynamic 'game' environment.

 

[Perkel]

They always delivered better looking final game than their tech demo.

It is true to

Fahrenheit
Heavy Rain
Beyond

 

[synce]

Pretty exciting. David Cage is my new Kojima.

 

[RomanticHeroX]

I bet I could make something worse.

 

[belmonkey]

Or putting the entirety of the assets into a space the size of a mortal combat level.

That being said though, Beyond looks amazing for a PS3 game.

 

[ComputerMKII]

If this is just the minimum then make all your games 1080p/60fps.

 

[Salex_]

Actually, none of them did. So there's that.

Actually, they did, you're wrong. So there's that.

Might want to know what your talking about before you get sassy next time, alright?
Check your eyes

That it does. That it does. Minds will be blown by these teams on next gen hardware.

I second this. *tear*

 

[MARNEY]

greatness awaits

Not sure I've ever seen anyone have this opinion of their tech demos compared to their games.

In my opinion, you are wrong.

 

[Applecot]

It's not that hard when you make games that are basically interactive movies.

This sounds so ignorant.

 

[N.Domixis]

Hopefully he adds more actual gameplay, quantic dream are the only Sony Devs that I dislike. Heavy rain was alright but beyond is just not as great. I want to play my games not watch them, he just need s to balance qte with gameplay a bit better. IMHO.

 

[nbthedude]

"The mimimum quality."

This is dumb people speak. David Cage is dumb.

 

[A More Normal Bird]

After playing Beyond I obviously believe him:



You are not allowed to say such a thing.

Well this is how Beyond looks on my PS3

So I wouldn't expect anything less from them.

Huh? What makes you think he's speaking for everyone?

The character models look really good, especially the faces/skin, but I have to say everything else looks pretty damn far away from 'photorealism' or 'best graphics ever'.

 

[rekameohs]

Is it me or is QD the only dev house to get human eyes right? No seriously, I can't think of any other game that has the sheen just right. Human eyes are not perfect spheres and do not reflect light uniformly...they get it right.

I felt like Naughty Dog really got eyes right in Uncharted 3. They were a just a bit off in Uncharted 2 and The Last of Us, but U3 was a damn fine looking game when it came to its characters.

 

[FranXico]

Am I the only one who gets these Molyneux vibes whenever I read quotes from Cage?

Not a dig at the games he designs, they're fine. Just the amount of hyperbole he throws out.

 

[fvng]

I would like to see QD dabble in sci-fi or fantasy, despite the fact that I love games set in modern society.

More succinctly, David Cage's games are the minimum quality you can get on PS4.

What a brave brave opinion.

 

[Domino792]

Sure a lot of what he says can be hyperbole. But Quantic Dream games always look better than their tech demos, so i would trust him on this one.

 

[Lord Error]

After seeing Beyond, it'd be almost foolish not to trust him on this.

The character models look really good, especially the faces/skin, but I have to say everything else looks pretty damn far away from 'photorealism' or 'best graphics ever'.

"Everything else" looks pretty damn amazing at this game at many times. Not all the time, but when it does it's incredible to look at. It's to my knowledge, the first game on the market that uses physically correct shaders for everything in the scene. Which is the kind of thing that teams like Guerrilla and Crytek have been implementing in their upcoming next gen games. It also has some of the best looking particle effects I've seen. The rain in the hunted scene, as well just about everything else in that scene, is mind blowingly good looking.

 

[fvng]

Hire a few, and a new director too. His direction comes out of a Lifetime movie.

GAF is so funny...puts up with shitty melodramatic JRPGs with incomprehensible stories then proceeds to give David Cage shit for his last 3 games. Beyond and Heavy Rain are Citizen Kane compared to the typical story found in a jrpg. (I'm only picking on JRPGs because they are notorious for being the worst offenders)

I platinumed Heavy Rain. It wasn't even close to the Audition.

Even Beyond, the footage being shown in TV spots doesn't come close to Kara..

Your memory has failed you. Their tech demos have been exceeded by their retail products each time. The Audtion in particular looks pretty poor compared to heavy rain.

 

[Sorc3r3r]

Graphics graphics graphics.

LOL

In the case of Quantic Dream, game graphic is very central to their vision.

You can't, or better it becomes very hard, to convoy a certain kind of emotions to the final user with cartoonish graphic.
The believability of characters and envrionements, their lifelikeness and homogeneity will get a boost going next gen and this will be very beneficial for them, and their take on videogames.

 

[Interceptor]

When i was young i tried to convince people about the almighty power of the dreamcast with the Shenmue passport. Cage took this "argument" to a whole new level.

Spoiler

get the camera close, pretend it´s a game.

 

[ionicbluebird]

Looking forward to it. Add another vote for a fully fleshed out KARA as well.

 

[SneakyStephan]

More succinctly, David Cage's games are the minimum quality you can get on PS4.

Bazinga

I too would like to see a game based around kara.
Just let someone else do the writing, and hire some people who know how to make a videogame, the facial animations and the concept were really good.
