I can prove it:

1. RDR 2 - release date 2018

2. Death stranding - release date 2019 and looks better than RDR 2

3. Cyberpunk 2077 released in 2020 and looks better than death stranding.

3. Horizon forbidden west release date 2022 and looks better than cyberpunk 2077 ( Original release ).

4. Death Stranding 2 release date - 2025 looks better than Horizon forbidden west.

Comparing these games because they are all open world games.

So we are seeing a noticeable improvement in the quality of games at most every 3 years if we go by open world games.

You can see the same for Resident evil games when you compare them in 3 year gaps.

Video games are improving noticeably every 3 years.

The biggest gains are being made in open world games as they have the most open (heh) space to improve upon their formula and add variety which gives them the most space to innovate and try out new ideas.

I did a study of upcoming games graphics and right now human hair and skin textures are still off. Even metahuman skin is off.

Expect skin to be fixed in another half a decade and hair to be fixed in a decade.

Beyond this we need upgrades to the physics engine so that hair does not travel through clothes or equipment.

Beyond this I am not aware of any other negative feature of video game graphics that currently stands out and ruins the realism.

I just checked the GTA VI trailer again. They have upgraded hair physics and skin in that. Still a little off but the hair don't have a physical weight to them and don't glitch through items.

The hair quality only appears to apply to ponytails however and the main head of hair they have limited how much detail it can have so it still looks fake.

Skin is off depending on the lighting condition. It might be more due to the GTA style rather than inability though.

The crowd density is also very good. I counted up to 40 NPCs on screen in the more dense scenes.

I have no idea how GTA is pulling it off but they are doing the impossible if we compare it to the output other studios generate on the ps5.

I was just wondering why NO ONE has done a game like this despite that feature in sonic being iconic and loved. Somehow immediately 5m later I see this in my X feed. He's really trying to make it as expansive as possible.

!g*mers

!g*mers

!g*mers !gacha !anime

not a drill or fake

At this point the game should be turned into free to play before release.

It also makes me wonder how all other Sony live service games were that they cancelled like last of us faction, Spider-Man dimension shit and etc if they decide not to cancel concord

Some ten months ago, Genshin Impact has released it's most powerful character to date - Neuvillette.

A Lucius Malfoy looking mofo who is the reincarnation of an ancient dragon and blah blah blah no one cares. What people care about is that he's strong. Very strong. His attack is a massive water beam that hits all target in front of him, with a massive range. And while when played normally, he is already pretty strong, but he is even stronger if you exploi- apply clever use of game mechanics, which is to say, get one of those high dpi gaming mice and spin to win. Basically, you can spin the character around and not just do massive damage to enemies in front of you, but also instantaneously do massive damage to literally everything within the full circle. Here's a video comparison of his normal and spinning gameplay:

This bug has been widely known and discussed since the character was in beta, and remained unchanged. Until today, that is. Mihoyo, the developers behind Genshin, are planning to release a brand new character that performs a similar role to Neuvillette in the next patch. So this patch, they got the bright idea to bugfix this. Neuvillette fans were, quite naturally, not happy about this. A new character is being released so they're nerfing an older character to make the new character more enticing? Seems like a scummy move.

So while the westerners are too busy protesting about whitewashing in Genshin (see https://rdrama.net/h/vidya/post/284560/apparently-the-mayos-marseymayo-are-trying and https://rdrama.net/h/vidya/post/284245/boycott-genshin-impact-marseyxi-marseysjw-because for more context), the Chinese playerbase got mad about this nerf, and did what they do best. Started doxing developers, sending threats, reporting the company to Chinese government authorities for misconduct, etc.

In under 24 hours of the nerf going live, Mihoyo, the company behind Genshin, folded. They announced they're reverting the change, apologized, and decided to give everyone 1600 free primogems (in-game currency used for summoning new characters), which is substantially higher than anything they've ever given as an apology for these kinds of situations (usually a bug fix warrants 100 primogems).

https://x.com/GenshinImpact/status/1813625290855530516

Here's their official apology on Twitter. As you can see by looking at the replies and quote retweets, the westerners are not happy. They've been signing petitions, harassing VAs and streamers until they agree with them, spamming all social media, getting the attention of gaming journ*lists for their cause, etc. for days and did not get so much as acknowledgement from Mihoyo, while the Chinese playerbase buckbroke them over a different issue in under a single day? Makes you wonder how serious anyone takes them.

So resident evil on iPhone made less buxx than indie movie make when they sell their license to 1 cinema chain

"I keep on chudding, all over the sharty"

I haven't read any of it, looks like WEEBSHIT to me. Its from this KIA thread

I just lol'd at the melanin scale.

So iGN decided to simp for the so called petition and write an article how it's all very "noble". What they failed to mention the so called petition and movement is run by the biggest r* out there. The movement ( https://x.com/HYVBoycott) is literally using a melanin measurement scale - yes you read that right;

• https://archive.ph/3ttRe - archived link

• https://www.ign.com/articles/genshin-impact-voice-actors-join-in-criticism-of-upcoming-natlans-regions-character-designs - original link

melanin scale

Mind you as some users pointed out some of the characters are tanned Asians from the list they used as an example. This petition/movement is run by the biggest r* i've seen out there.

This is what they do: they try to insert themselves under the guise of "inclusivity"; it all started because someone's feedback was ignored and they were told to go play something else - based HoYo (https://x.com/Grummz/status/1812195892122055090) and I don't even play the game.

So now they have to escalate things with the help of urnalists. In the process they will most likely abuse individuals on official HoYo subs/forums and in-game. Which will get them banned (i mean ofc), so then they will try to play the victim card and accuse HoYo as bunch of 'ists - that's the play

These are the so called guidelines from the boycott group and they explicitly call for review bombing:

• a moment of self reflection;

"I am just waiting for some of their DEI allies in the gaming urnalism space to try and write a compassionate article about it - and I expect HoYo to blacklist said news outlet". - this was my comment before i actually found out that the outlet in question would be non other then iGN - Comment

!g*mers @X will the chinx company crumble under the ??

The Emperors Dream:

1. Capture plan Earth ( Success )

2. Gain back control of the solar system. ( Success)

3. Conquer the galaxy ( middling success )

4. Gain access to a separate dimension to move all of humanity into. ( Massive failure )

5. Conquer all of humanity and move them into said dimension and starve out the Gods of Chaos. ( massive failure )

6. Create a race of uber humans so that you can finally have friends to hang out with and an eternal human utopia with mind science ( mild success )

7. Maybe come back to the galaxy and kill all other life in the galaxy. ( Middling success )

Why the emperors dream would have always failed even if he got everything he wanted:

1. Super boomer who experienced all of human history:

You know how you have these old people around who want you to believe that their social views from the time when it was okay to backhand a wife for being late with dinner is as valid as your view that we shouldn't be violent towards one another without being attacked first?

Well the Emperor is that boomer on steroids, but his views of what's normal are distorted by lifestyles lived as far back as when Kings were torture purging entire kingdoms in the middle ages and calling it the divine and righteous wrath of God.

2. He has never actually experienced a life lived another someone superior to him:

He is the peak of mankind since the day he was born and running for the last 30-50000 years. The only friends he ever made were a bunch of other immortals who all he had a falling out with and his only friend left from that group is the one who accepts himself as inferior to the Emperor and his plans.

The moment this man would have gotten his superior human better than him he would have despised him and probably turned against him.

Even worse, imagine when the superior human tells the emperor he was and is wrong. The emperor would have acted against his own species desire to grow beyond the Emperor. Every superior human that disagreed with the Emperor would have been declared a failure and the Emperor would have gone back to creating his "Superior man".

I believe this is the case because "The Custodes", the emperor exemplary example of a superior being, all are genetically modified humans completely incapable of disagreeing with the Emperor of Mankind.

3. The Emperor is the anti-thesis of God Emperor Leto II from Dune, and Leto's plan was the one that worked:

God Emperor Leto's plan was to become the villain of the story, to abuse humanity to such an extent over the course of 10,000 years that they become genetically coded to spread forever infinitely, so that they could never again be captured under the grip of a single leader, no matter how great or how far willing to grow his empire. Humanity would be too widespread to ever fall under the control of a single despot.

This plan worked in the end.

The Emperor's plan is the exact opposite, to capture every single human alive and add them to his empire. Anyone unwilling to join or willing to rebel would be killed off. This plan obviously suffered from too much centralization, where humanity collapsed towards the path of extinction the moment the Emperor of Mankind died. His plan was too dependent on him to ever succeed.

4. Who even is a human in the setting? :

One of the core requirements of the Emperor's plan to work was that he had to bring all of humanity under his fold, for if any human civilization remained free, Chaos would be able to take back control over the galaxy and humanity over time through them.

The problem here is that the Emperor of Mankind made up his own definition of who counts as a human.

The squats for example do not count as a human. Yet one could argue that they are human enough for the Chaos Gods to get their claws into humanity one day through them if they wished to. Such as the Squat outposts of Necromunda.

There is also the factor that just because the Emperor came up with his own definition of what counts as human doesn't mean it fits in with what the chaos Gods can use to empower themselves under the category of human.

For all we know half the humans that do not even count as abhumans due to the extremes of genetic alteration over time would still count as humans for the purposes of the Chaos Gods.

The only way to guarantee that the Emperor has all humans across the galaxy under his control would be to cleanse every single lifeform in the galaxy that does not count as human, to avoid any mistakes of accidentally leaving a human race behind.

5. It would have been impossible to get all humans under one single banner anyways:

Humanity spread across the galaxy vai the use of warp gates, holes in space time that allow for super fast travel using heck as a detour to ones destination.

The issue is that warp gates are not stable and can shut down and open up in new places over the course of thousands of years.

For all we know, there are hundreds to thousands of smaller human civilizations spread across the galaxy that are no longer reachable as there is no warp access point to travel to them anymore. The Emperor of Mankind and the imperium would have never been able to reach these civilizations to get them back into the Imperium of Mankind no matter how powerful they became.

6. We already have a successful impossible to exterminate species in the Galaxy of 40k which acts as an example of a solution that works:

Yes. That's right. The Orks.

They are the only species in the galaxy that have existed for millions of years and show no signs of ever going extinct even now.

The Orks are genetically modified biological weapons that are a self replicating ecosystem in each individual growing 24/7 due to the release of spores from their bodies and keep improving in combat as long as the fight gets harder or they are faced with a greater adversary without dying out in one hit.

The Orks also love fighting so much that they would go far and wide looking for a fight. If a good scrap was available at the other end of the galaxy that's where they would go, leaving behind Ork ecosystems all along the way.

So the winner in the 40k galaxy in terms of survival is:

A) A species that constantly adapts to the fight

and

B) Is forever spreading out across the galaxy

and

C) Has a high reproductive rate to make up for any and all losses.

The Orks are the "Go forth and multiply species of 40k"

The Orks are humanity after it escaped from the confines of God Emperor Leto II's control.

All the Emperor had to do to win was to conduct a "forever crusade" spreading out across the galaxy beyond even his ability to control it.

The Imperium of mankind would have won if instead of being centralized they were decentralized as a society while still doing all the shit that they did, actively encouraging everyone to get as far away from the center as humanly possible.

The imperium and humanity would have survived as long as they considered anything capable of reproducing with their fellow man as human.

The humans would have survived as long as they would have exiled all the psykers they found outside the borders of the Imperium instead of killing them.

Instead the God Emperor of Mankind homogenized the species to the point that a single bad glitch in the system could crash the entire system.

Conclusion:

The imperium of mankind could never have escaped the chaos Gods, the only remaining winning strategy was to accelerate the dispersal of humans across the Galaxy to such extremes and varieties of cultures that even Chaos could never hope to control all of them.

There would never emerge a perfect human utopia, but so would there never be a single extinction event to take down the entirety of mankind. The God Emperor of Mankind should have Leto II maxxed.

Well, that pretty blatantly shows Twisted Minds' and their players values if they're willing to sign NWPO. Disappointing.

So much for him "getting his career ruined" when RuleOne kicked him when he's literally back on a salary within 3 months because other morally bankrupt entities exist. If we're being real he has effectively not been punished for being a racist, what a fantastic precedent.

He said some naughty words one time when he was 14 years old lol

Wasn't this guy exposed for racism a few months ago ?

Yep! Do hope he's learned from it and TM don't regret their signing…he's a bit of a liability at this point!

It's one thing for players to stick with him but your average RL player is immature tbf, it's another that legitimate organizations are still willing to pay the dude a monthly salary and willingly be represented by him when he realistically should be banned at this moment, if not permanently following his previous incident, dude is a proven liability at this stage.

Imagine being a grown butt adult trying to bully a kid on the internet lmao

Female POV OP picture? Check.

Horny OP question? Check.

"Oh yeah, the chuds are going to be so mad!"

"erm. if you want to feel like a girl, you should play Overwatch or Final Fantasy 14... not that I'm speaking from experience or anything."

This guy is taking the bait but he seems more confused than angry.

OP admits defeat

But wait! The /v/ermin are amused by the attempt and give actual advice on how to better troll /v/!

also this is pretty funny (it was posted in response to OP)

!g*mers thots?

I hate everything

https://n4g.com/news/2610312/game-pass-price-hike-continues-trend-of-confusing-messaging-from-xbox

Microsoft also risen the gay pass price and now day one gayms are released only on gay pass ultimate that now cost more than ps plus premium

And now they don't really mog PlayStation service especially now that PlayStation service will also give ps2 and ps3 hd games.

The only cool thing that left on gay pass is they have day one release of Sega games and call of duty games but in total they have even less new games than Sony

!g*mers
