      There's something weird going on with the parallax in the background. At first, I thought it was a card, but when approaching the lake, it was real geometry - still, there is some kind of odd optimization. Don't get me wrong, it's a great online render, and these optimizations are to be expected in a game, but I am not sure it's ready to complete offline.

      ​@@squirming_squirrels Yes it is real geometry. You may have heard about Nanite in unreal engine, with UE5.2 foliage is also nanite compatible.
      Nanite allows individual meshes to have theoretically unlimited number of triangles. Simply, by mushing down points in an individual pixel, thus reducing the geometry to what is really necessary.
      And it's really fast, like real-time fast.

      Should be pretty easy compared to all the incredible details already there for the visuals and spatial audio. It's just a matter of some modeling of the actual (swinging) of the steps of walking, not just a tacked-on fake effect. It doesn't have to be super accurate to feel less cheesy. A simple pendulum model should work fine.

      ⁠@@hcsnake exactly! It’s nice to have realistic graphics but at some point it has to stop. Games should not be as realistic as real life. Because soon games will look more “real” then actual life And VR,AR, MetaVerse etc… will become the new real and life itself will be just mere Empty space. That’s some Matrix shenanigans.

      *Uncanny Valley* effect.
      There are literally dozens of subtle details that also need to be implemented for it to be perceived as real. With low fidelity graphics we don’t have the same expectations.

    To think the Unreal Engine debuted way back in 1994 with the game "Jazz Jackrabbit" 30yrs later look at what we are witnessing. Hats off to Epic games. Like, holy shit,

      Я этот ролик раз 10 пересматривал. Это реально лучшая работа такого плана, что я видел. Прям захотелось скачать этот движок и самому попытаться что-нибудь нарисовать...))

    The next VR fishing simulator on that lake would be crazy. Reminds me of the fishing spot in the old Legend of Zelda game.

    Круто! Хотелось бы еще колышущиеся деревья от ветра. Будем считать, что это зной без ветра. И ослепительное солнце, а не мутный шарик. И для меня это природа в российской деревне! Оказывается как похожа бывает природа на разных континентах!

      Для ослепительного солнца нужен дисплей с ослепительной максимальной яркостью. Для движка-то, думаю, не проблема соответствующий уровень HDR задействовать.

      The associated sounds seem lacking in comparison, idk if it's just because this demo is focused on visuals or because it's unusual to design with such density
