Looks incredible. Very excited to learn more about this one!

I think graphics in game will not be 100% be same, but some 90% will be. And that already will put this game to first place of graphics on any platform. Looks above Hellblade 2 in terms of face details and animation. About other moments, can say yet for sure. But probably this game will surpass Hellblade 2 in every aspect for sure. And without UE5.

I really thought their next game would be TLOU 3. Will check trailer when I’m not on a phone.

Unless they are doing a similar tech to nanite I don't see them matching the microlevel of detail of HB2 terrain.
As for the characters, they look on par with the best ones such as HB2 and Death Stranding 2 I'd say.

Lol what? Are we watching the same thing? The actual gameplay looks like a regular PS5 game visuals, not even top 10. The water effect, grass were bad too. The lack of shadowing on the character, etc.

Just one word, ridiculous.

Just one word, ridiculous.

Everything here looks worse than HB2, Avatar, Outlaws, Alan Wake 2 in gameplay.
Look at the water, look at the shading and lighting on the characters, look at the lack of complexity in the scene.

And its running at 60fps. Seriously stop.
I was impressed until they got to gameplay.

I am sorry but this dosent look anywhere as good as HB2. Its a ok looking 3A game for sure, but HB2 AW2 or recent games rised bar very high. On any platform? really? .....
yeah no .... i am not sure if this even will be the best looking ps5 game.

This could be early build, there is no release date yet, I think 2026. A lot could change by that time. There was info they work on this game from 2020. But I think active development started after TLOU 1 remake release, so it' only 2 years at best. And they need some 1.5 - 2 years more time to complete game. ND always made game with top level graphics, I don't think this time will be different.

 

[techuse]

The cut scenes are industry leading as always with ND. The rendering though looks like TLOU with added RT reflections.

The 80's retro futurism is extremely well done. It's still 80's retro futurism so gets on my tits. Could we have some really bold, nuanced and cohesive 2020's futurism please!

Yes the art direction of the 80's retro futurism is what excited me even more! I just love it!
As an 80s generation who grew up with these kind of imagined future concepts, it feels nostalgic and much more unique than the typical, digital, super clean, sterilized futuristic visuals of other games.
The analogue elements add an extra layer of human touch and personality.

 

[fehu]

What with all that retro stuffism? :/
It breaks the immersion

 

[London Geezer]

Wow finally Naughty Dog! I think this looks great, but we haven’t seen much yet. At least it’s a totally new IP!

I like Cowboy Bebop setup but final gameplay scene is worrying. Blade fighting + look kinda cartoonish ?

Is there gameplay footage? Was that not just cinematics?

Yeah if its a "hack n slash" I will be sad.

The final few seconds is probably gameplay graphics. The animation is cleaned up by hand for the trailer though.

Ok, might even be a reverse Killzone 2
