Tim Sweeney says photorealism may be achieved at 40 teraflops

lol @ 30fps.
As an artistic endeavor I don't see why game studios shouldn't have the freedom to "stylize" or not. They have art directors for a reason. One of the great things about games as a medium is the freedom to do whatever you want. Not sure why everything should look realistic.

Btw ff xv duscae demo is seen in 6inch screen, already looks photo realistic.
Not the characters, but the food and the world.

Just like how 60fps is shit compared to 120/144fps but carry on crying about something that been a standard for consoles since 1995 mainly because of how consoles work. 30fps look's fine to me if its locked but i guess 40m PS4 owners & me are just idiots, I remember when people played games for fun, gameplay & story but now it either cryisis 3 graphics or GTFO!!!.
It's posts like this make wonder how many here are just kids since anything game wise form the 80's & 90's is shit.
And you are...?
Look at Grall's join date and then give me a run-down of the maths behind your assessment.

So he joined when he was 5......that makes him 18 going on 19?Look at Grall's join date and then give me a run-down of the maths behind your assessment.

Could be. Some of Grall's early posts are in crayon.
You lost me right there. Nobody's "crying" about 30fps. You don't HAVE to settle for 30fps, even on consoles. And 120+ fps is only a marginal improvement over 60, whereas 60 is a huge upgrade over 30. So why don't you take a long walk off a short pier and cool yourself off a bit okay, mkay?

I've been thinking about this issue. The key is defining photorealism. True photorealism could be defined as a real-time game with no difference to a live filmed video that a trained individual with excellent eye sight could discern. I think this will be impossible to achieve until we reach a couple hundred teraflops in a GPU. However, there are also varying degrees between the center of the Uncanny Valley (in which characters just look obviously spooky and fake) to characters (and to a lesser extent enviornments) that are so well rendered that they take some effort to discern as not a live action video by a non-expert.
My thinking is that RIGHT NOW with a high end video card (such as a GTX 1080) if a game was made at 1080P and targetting 30FPS in an enclosed environment (lets say a large house) and the developers had a huge budget a game could be made that could confuse people for a short period of time.
