It's been heading that direction for awhile now, and it's becoming more and more prevalent as the series goes on. This game is no different. The closer you get to the Gods and the ancient past of Hyrule, the more obvious it becomes that something scifi-ish is happening in the background and some lost ancient highly advanced civilization is involved.
The entire sequence of this:
makes it painfully clear that something scifi is happening, it behaves too technical and mechanical to be considered magic. Then there's Fi, who acts like a PDA and is clearly an advance AI hologram. Skyward Sword has shown that there is a lot of sci-fi things happening in the background.
Either way there will still be a better looking version out there lol.
Man, trying to think of an exception to this is hard.
"Hero.mp4"?
But it really is omnipresent in speculative fiction whenever ancient civilizations pop up.
Funny thing is that, aside from the placeholders, the game looked the same between E3 2014 and TGA: there were no effects missing. The only difference was that at E3 2014, the footage they showed was a small fraction, basically a "cutscene" (it was literally that after the monster started chasing Link) prepared ad hoc for the event. This also allowed them to use that "cinematic" cut, so everything looked perfect. On the TGA demo, they were running around in a world that was FAR from being complete, and there was a ton of placeholder content, so they had to show it off-screen. But there is no way they show something offscreen and full of placeholders now, at ~8 months from going gold, so it's impossible that it looks like the TGA demo. Aonuma said that the graphics would improve compared to the reveal so it's more likely that it looks better than that famous screen, except for the IQ (we know that the game won't run at 1080p downsampled from 1440p, right?).
Yup, we had those 10 seconds too and they certainly didn't look worse than the reveal. Amazing gif btw.The thing is: The game always looked like the reveal trailer, we just saw some other areas with bad texture mapping.

Hope that's the case.
I actually forgot that short snippet at the end of twilight princess HD was a thing lol.The thing is: The game always looked like the reveal trailer, we just saw some other areas with bad texture mapping.
