Yeah the Decima engine is one of the best, nice from Sony and Guerrilla to give the engine to Hideo. I have no doubt thas DS2 defenetly will look better that Hellblade2 when DS2 is ready next year. Why are a lot off people saying the UR5 engine is the ulimate engine ??

Which one? Fanboy much? I just took a snap from the respective trailers, please explain which of the 2 is the tech demo, I'm confused.

Open world
No black bars
Farther camera which means bigger fov.
Not UE5 which for some reason struggles in higher resolutions
There also seems to be a lot more going on in DS2.
I will concede character models to HB2 though. They really nailed the look.

Wow, both faces look amazing but are going for different art styles. Personally, Death Stranding looks more pleasing(almost like ps3 launch era final fantasy CGI) but hell blade2 model is more striking, although Death Stranding 2 is technically more impressive due to the scale difference.

Well it isn't a fair comparison to begin with because I'm wagering DS2 is being made with hundreds of more people and hundreds of millions more money.

You should check the context of what you share before making comparisons.
You know what's funny? You're both indirectly admitting that Hellbalde 2 looks graphically better, yet unfair because I'm showing some kind of TECH DEMO or other UNFAIR comparison because it looks too good.
We're examining 2 cinematic trailers, suddenly one becomes unfair use

It is evident to anyone with eyes in the face that DS2 looks better than Hellblade 2 and is the most impressive of the new generation, the Decima engine in a title only next gen shows its quality on PS5.

Yep. You don't know what tech demo is.

Death Stranding 2.
Fable and GTA VI surpass both Hellblade and DS2 though.

Am I missing something? The gameplay they showed of DS2 didn’t look anywhere near Hellblade 2 quality. The cutscenes were great but they’re cutscenes. However DS2 is open world so…

Both look visually amazing, but Death Stranding 2 art direction is in another level.
Hellblade will probably have the more impressive facial animations, thats Ninja Theory strenght, but the rest of the game while good looking, seems to be using a shit load of cinematic effects like film grain, chromatic aberration, lots of motion blur and even horizontal black bars that hide the real thing.

The Poor IQ and heavy reliance on chromatic aberration/vignetting/etc.. in Hellblade 2 makes it look less impressive to me. I know it's in-line with the tone of the game but when compared to the pristine sharpness shown in the DS2 trailer, it's not as jaw dropping to me.

I think you added something that wasn't on that title, wonder if that's a mistake or you're just being disingenous. I bet the latter.
Anyway, so you're saying Hellblade 2 graphics is tech demo worthy? how flattering. Got it.
Here's some context for you, I added the name of the video just as you requested, better?

We’ll probably have a revised Steam Deck by the time DS2 releases.

Comparisons in general are a joke. I will say the team did an amazing job with the DS2 trailer, I can understand the excitement and why someone would quickly want to compare with HB2, but they're two different games with different goals. I will say that HB2 nails the facial animations, it's the best out there, got a few posters who need their sodium levels checked and I recommend a little copium if you have to call one trailer Fake or a Tech demo while the other is fair game lol. They're both cinematic trailers, if you have to dismiss one as being "UNREAL" (no pun intended), then you're warring it wrong since you just admitted what's superior looking lol.

I can understand that with the “clean” look if that’s your thing. Just the models in gameplay didn’t look like this huge leap from DS1 Im seeing everyone talk about happy to be proven wrong tho when it releases. The cutscenes were cool.

I mean, Death Stranding 2. Duh. This isn’t a fucking matter of opinion.

How stupid are you? The ds2 trailer showed actual in game visuals. Why are you comparing to early in engine hellblade 2 teaser? The game looks nothing like that. Didn't you see the newest trailer?

Are you blind? Did you see the latest HB2 trailer?
If we're talking pure fucking visuals, HB2 looks better.
Not talking about "scope" and "scale" and all the other shit people use to compare games. Ignore all that and go bar for bar. HB2 punches a bit higher.

Yeah the more I look at the DS2 trailer the more apparent it becomes that the gameplay segments are significantly worse than the cutscenes. I suppose that's the downside of Kojima making the game, the majority of the budget goes on the cutscenes

Saw it on reddit when HFi Rush reports came out. Makes sense considering the first was also on PS.

Both games aren't out, so anything and everything is a question mark in this point and time. Hellblade 2 is looking great, but it's hard to shake that with Death Stranding 2 being so far out that it'll potentially look better in the long run. It already looks great, and it still has a year and some change (potentially).

Character models in HB2 may have a slight edge
But everything ends? DS2 by far
Open world, no black bars, higher resolution it seems, and the nanite level detail is way more abundant
HB2 environments got a big downgrade from the initial teaser, we were all expecting that nanite level detail in the rocks and it’s now gone from the latest footage but it’s very clear in DS2

I know we're still early into the year but come the end of 2024 this might take top prize as Joke Thread of the Year. DS2, obviously. Having said that, I don't know why we're comparing the two games... Actually, I do, load up the artillery boys, it's WAR time!

Atleast you used the actual latest in game footage. Why was the other guy using an in engine teaser that doesn't represent how the actual game looks? Be honest atleast.

From what we saw, Hellblade 2 easy. But DS2 still has probably close to 2 years to cook.

Yeah I mean, Hellblade 2 is likely going to look at least close to its most recent trailer as its coming out very soon, whereas Death Stranding 2 has a chance to see downgrades as, funnily enough, Hellblade 2 has already seen (at least relative to what they showed initially), and what most AAA games tend to see between announce and launch.
