I still wish they used it for the gameplay. Like physics-based fist fights, instead of just attack or block. Or tracking by footprints and not by glowing golden lines.

>>29094Zelda Squidward Sword did that and people hated it, but on the other hand Metal Gear Rising Revengening sort of did it and people liked it.

>>29098GTA V had less detail than GTA IV though. They simplified it for easier multiplayer since that's the real moneymaker.

>>29098That is why zelda tears of the kingdom is the best open world ever made.

>>29092That's cool but physics-based kills have been a thing for a long time, am complaining about missed opportunities here

>>29099you WILL use the cycles to check a boolean determining if it is time to engage the horse ball shrinking method every frame and you will love it

>>29104>booleanMy juicy tushy. Temperature calculations are expensive. That's why all these games run like piss. I bet they use a (terrible) inhouse compiler too.

>>29131we need to store the temperature data for our open world map in a single, un-chunked bitmap file that uses red to map the high, blue to map the low, and green to map how rapidly it changes

Jokes aside it's still pretty incredible knowing that even at the highest stage of capitalist development in gaming, AAA publishers and developers still hold each other to a standard to push for the most advancements in gaming tech from time to time even if it creates zero profits or details anyone is gonna care about

>>29133Read Dead 2 as an alpha test for a Sword Art Online style full dive VR world that the government is developing and they need it to be realistic like having horse balls shrink or people would find out its VR. NPCs are so believable because they are actually brainwashed prisoners who are killed IRL if they die in the game. SCREENCAP THIS.
