The "different time of day" argument is very sound, although there are certain things that still appear to be missing, like the reflections off his hair and armor and water, and the depth of field is gone

With the uncompressed trailer, there's not downgrade. I mean, look this stuff. It's awesome.

Yeah, some stuff that isn't that hard to add. Personally, I don't see the issue with bloom and DOF being gone :lol: Never liked them
For me yeah they are right up there with story and gameplay. But I try to stay unbiased and not do that annoying thing gamers do where they pick and choose and change what is "most important" based on what game is being showcased or ripped on.
Does that make sense? Like, people in the youtube comments for the e3 Uncharted 4 trailer were freaking out about how amazing it looked and ripping on PC and saying graphics are amazing. But then after the recent gameplay came out with slightly lower quality lighting and shadow effect, people are going all defense force crazy and saying how crappy the game looks and some people are saying "Oh well graphics don't matter" when they were the same people who before said the opposite when the graphics were a lot better

@Docttj
I really miss the bloom tbh lol. And DoF effects are awesome. I am always sad to see them go, like with Watch Dogs or Killzone or whatnot
It may sound sound but it might as well be true. I'm not sure what you mean by reflections (what do you exactly miss?) but how can you expect them to be the same if the sun shines in one shot and doesn't (or does differently) in another?
Btw, aren't those 'fancy' effects like DoF or bloom toggable? I'm sure they will be in the final game.

I never understood DOF. If I'm looking at one part of the screen the other parts will already be out of my attention and blurred. I don't need DOF simulating my eyes focusing on stuff for me. Bloom can be really over done too and I think it is most of the time.
I'm sure DOF and Bloom will be in the game. Would be surprised not to seem them in the finished product. They're like basic graphical features nowadays
In chronological order
No tell me that it was downgraded, ill get you more pics.========The Sword of Destiny========

Look at the hair.
As you demanded, they did it.
See people?? Now nobody has anything to complain about ! Thread closed !
@Yurtex
Those riders and horse head armors look pretty similar to me. Different lighting in SOD with light reacting on the armor though
As for Yen,
They made her hair black (Like it should be) and I think improved her facial model (This is subjective. I think old Yen was kinda ugly) Clothing looks a bit better to me in Elder Blood. I think it's kinda hard to tell a hair difference in that shot. Her hair is now black and her outfit fur is too. Her hair is in a bit different position too. More behind her

Yeah, it's a bit hard to tell with the rider, since he doesn't get as close to the camera in the SOD trailer than in the Elder Blood Trailer, but I'd say they look about the same.
I think Yennefer's face looking better might just be because she doesn't have as blank of an expression in the Elder Blood trailer. Also, did they change the necklace? The band seems thinner in SOE.
No, I think they confirmed they re-designed her when the free DLC was announced.
I think apart from the stretching it looks fine. It is a third person game with a camera that is not super up close
Are you talking about this, C0bR?
Actually, now that I look at it, they seem to have also changed the color of those rivet-things on his shoulder, and maybe made the stitching less prominent, if that's not caused by the added color correction. Also, I noticed that you're the one who actually posted this. oops.
I'd say it looks fine, if a bit flat. I wonder why they changed the direction of the chains.

Yeah that is amazing. Thank you VERY much for this CDPR. Hair looks absolutely awesome. Yen's clothes and textures in general are top notch IMO. They really hit her looks, at least the way I imagined her. (PS: I still don't believe that the SoD version (second last picture) is actual in-game during-normal-gameplay material and nobody should really assume this IMO)
Nah, I mean that boat pic with Yen and Triss above. The stretching/compression there is just as bad as in some of those Elder Blood shots.
