Godfall (Always Online Required) [PC, PS5, PS4, XO, XBSX|S]

This seems like sony had the forethought of having whatever first ps5 game trailer they could in hand, just in case MS released something (in this case Hellbalde 2) so they could try to steal some of the thunder.
While that seems smart in theory, this trailer has very little "next-gen" wow factor, and specially compared to Hellblade's, its almost an embarasment. I wonder if this doesn't do more damage than good.
Still, I think sony just wants to have something out there so the next-gen conversation doesn'r revolve entirely around SEX until sony is ready thto share their own info.

 

This is already starting to be called a Sloosher (term coined on Dropped Frames to denote a looter slasher as the Gearbox reps called it). The Borderlands games were called Slooters (term coined on Dropped Frames to denote a looter shooters).

Why would they release it on the pc too?

 

Because they aren't fully funding it.

 

Not that it matters really, looks like a reply to MS's new game.

 

Just like Epic paid them for exclusivity on the Epic store (for PC), it's likely that Sony are paying them for exclusivity on the PS5 (for consoles).

Yeah, this whole thing with exclusives are like a virus.

 

Short gameplay snippet fom playstationlifestyle interview. And more detailed infos there:

Would look good @4k60fps with Raytracing.
Bit weird they didn't show any gamrplay footage like in the gif above.

Next batch of info next spring, maybe after or during ps5 official unveiling.

 

That's the great thing about x86 hardware, devs take advantage of the hardware much faster. Looks nice, guess it's up there with MS's hellblade rendering.
PC gamers will finally have to upgrade i think

 

This looks staggeringly generic.

 

People seem to be more impressed by ms’s first revealed next gen game then sony’s. Both put old gen games to shame though.

 

So "powerful SSD " is a thing now.

 

That gif shows signs of raytraced reflections. It's not using SSR, that's for sure.

 

Looks good. I think people that love Dark Souls this could really take off.

 

I was trying to parse that out myself but got bothered. Did you spot clear situations where main view occluded objects showed up in reflections? That's great.

 

There are few moments, like these mentioned by Digital Foundry

Also, undersides of trees are visible in the puddles, views that are not covered in regular camera viewpoint.

 

And it looks God AwFall..If the alleged Raytracing really is present then it's definitely a waste of resource to me. That Hellblade footage despite with no RT looks leaps and bounds better, the enormous amount of GPU resources saved from RT could be so much better utilized as shown in those incredible landscapes, character models, lighting, Post processing and fluid sim smoke than some hard to notice reflections that requires a third take. OK sure this is an indie title but still the point stands. I mean hell even Ghost of Tsushima looks better.
