Trailer next plz! D: I want to know more about the movie!
Maybe! Here's just a little comparison of what current hardware is able to achieve while rendering graphics in real-time.
Drake's face is impressive, his shirt not so much. Still we need to see ND's next title on PS4.5.

Before, over the summer I believe.
wow, there's a lot less views on the kingslaive teaser than I thought. Unless I didn't find the "main" one.
I guess it hasn't hit the general press...? Maybe people don't know about it yet.

So how many of the Kingslaive y'all think are gonna die?
I'mma say all of them.

The height in detail ends the minute you look below Drake's neck.
I'm hoping that Square Enix can flex their muscle once they finally get rid of the terrible engine that FFXV is on. Not saying FFXV looks bad but with better tools they could impress more.

Wish these characters would be the main characters of FF15 and not that boy band.
I meant i wouldn't want to fight them in 15.
I don't wanna rain on people's parade on "when we'll get visuals like this in consoles" but don't hold your breath for any time soon. We more or less now have the capabilities to render out Toy Story in real time, but Kingsglaive, much like every other movie out there, has dozens upon dozens of render passes. The hair isn't polygons with textures that have alpha, they're full on nHair simulations. Same goes for the clothes, they all have calculated deformations too with nCloth.
Even with baked assets and cached data such as geometry, simulations, particles, etc, the amount of VRAM pushed to the GPU to handle all the assets would be basically impossible right now to put out in real time. Unless people want to consider hours if not days per frame as the new cinematic quality (like a single frame from Disney's 'Frozen' took about 23 hours per frame), don't hold your breath.
It still looks really, really good though. I definitely want to see it when it hits theaters.

Dude you are spiking the camera. Lets do another take.

Just wait until we see more of FFVII:R. If they're going to bother making it look this realistic you gotta wonder why they didn't go live action especially considering that most if not all of the characters are based off of their english VA. Like someone said above it seems like a tech demo more than anything else. >_>
Hard to say. Probably only around 2 - 3 generational leaps (about a 100x - 1000x increase from where we are now) but what me pause, is that I'm not sure we even have room left for that many leaps. We're already approaching the physical limits of how small (and densely packed) a transistor can be. Moore's law is already slowing down and eventually we're going to hit a brick wall. We'll need to find a completely different paradigm of computing to advance beyond that point, so who knows.

I have high hopes. I want to see them take the throne back from Naughty Dog and CD Projekt Red.
Perhaps.
I believe the closest we've gotten to a CGI look in real time graphics is The Order. It looks a lot more consistent, including the clothing and the fucking insane amount of details on it.

I'm wondering if this is at that party Noctis and Stella meet at back from Versuss XIII. Reminds me of that room they chat in, and there are what look like fireworks (celebrating the treaty) on the right.
you like grizzled competent older men huh

Oh shit, I just noticed the Amano artwork of the-goddess-formerly-known-as-Etro in that screenshot.
It's definitely the same painting, at least.

To his credit the costume design is a lot more interesting.
There's a reason for that.
Kingsglaive takes place in Insomnia, which has a certain aesthetic to it.
The game takes place outside of Insomnia, the world which is said to be extremely different to the city, and a huge clash of different environments and cultures.

Sony should get them to do an Uncharted movie. I'd watch it.

Well, if FFXV ends up sucking, at least we get this visual feast of a movie out of it.

- I bet PS8 if you want them in glorious 60fps.
- Year? 2043.
- In 27 years.
- In my case i will have 61 years old if i not die earlier.
(Oh well this is depressing as fuck!. And i'm being optimistic considering that every gen should last 6 years)

Having taken just one glance at the pics, it looks live-action up until the last three images.
Can we get that dude as the main character instead of Noctis, or at least have him show up in the game?

Agni Philosophy was close and that's running on a GTX680 back in 2011 cutscene wise
There was also the Witch tech demo on DX12 but that used three Titan Xs. The level fidelity and animation in that demo matches Kingsglaive

Doesn't look very diverse to me. I haven't even seen the token character yet.

It just occurred to me that the animation in this has to be literally flawless to avoid the uncanny valley. Especially the eye movement. Ծ_Ծ
One is budget concerns, two is stuff like lighting in this being WAY more complex than real time rendering can handle even with the super pretty in-engine tech demos that usually take place in incredibly small spaces with nothing resembling AI or real time physics.Not really sure what you mean.
Umm..what I mean is we're not really far away.Not really sure what you mean.
