what?
vgx had fire reflections, blood decals on metal and strong dynamic lights, new have only better moving grass
Ok. There are tons of things i want to tell but i just don't want begin.
Not about bad things.A litle bad and a litle good.At first THX to CDProject for this game again.
Now i will talk about only this gifs. And this is my opinion. So may be i am wrong about something.
What is a differences between this 2 GIFs.
1.
AMBIENT LIGHTING Both of them are amazing. We can't say there is any downgrade or improvement in lighting because they are totally different. May be downgraded or may be improved. The VGX one is more looks like it recorded from actual camera from real life. But new one looks like a film.
2.
TEXTURE We can't speak much about textures. We can only (
SURRENDER ) see the armor of the wild hunt soldier. In VGX there was more rust and blood decal. But now it is clean. It does not mean downgrade. We can clean our home. We do not downgrade it when we clean. And i can actually see another material (it is not metal at all) on his left leg when he put's his leg on man's spine and light illuminate this part after that. But in VGX trailer there was only dirty metal. This is prove that RED actually added another material to that character, And this is better now. But the RES of texture low now. We can see the new texture more closely after that scene on soldires armor when camera moved to next position. Textures were better before.
3.
FIRE LIGHTING We can't see the reflection from fire on Soldire's leg. Because the fire is far from him now. But instead of that there is reflection from moon light on his leg. A bit of reflection from fire too. So there is not downgrade in this part too.
4.
PARTICLES We can say that there are more particles in new scene. Actually yes. But only this scene. There is even more particle in bottom GIF from VGX. And i think, more beautiful particles. Better motion blur when moving. For particles i can't say. When comparing GIFs which show same place there is more particles in new one. But even more and even better in another GIF,there is even falling fire from somewhere. I need to see same scene with bottom GIF to be sure.
5.
FIRE EFFECT Now, Here i can see downgrade. Not from this GIFs but from actual videos we can clearly see there was more frame in animation. But in new one we can see animation frame by frame. In VGX trailer fire animation was more smooth. This is what was obviusly better before. And we can see the bad fire animation from another youtubers' videos.
6.
SMOKE EFFECT In VGX trailer there was more smoke and the fire illuminated the smoke better. Not from this GIF again but from actual video we can see this. This was better before too.
7.
FUR EFFECT We already saw the hairwork in action in January build and same kind of fur as VGX when Geralt talked with man in Skallige island. But fur movement was not same as VGX trailer. VGX fur was better million time. Now its not even close. BIG
DOWNGRADE about this kind of FUR.
8.
GRASS We already saw the grass and we already now what is going on.
