Some pretty noticeable downgrades there, while other shots look the same.

Most changes seem to be for the better and/or artistic choices.
In some scenes, it also appears to be a bit blurry but that might just be down to video quality.

The detail is slightly less and the models more waxy, it's still fairly impressive in scale and scope for base PS4

More fundamentally - it's a Cage project and over the years, I've had a love / hate relationship with his games.

I appreciate the atmosphere but I need more these days

You're absolutely right, on rewatching it, there doesn't seem to be any difference. Probably just some minor time of day things or video compression.

Aside from a drop in face texture quality and some weird blown out lighting on the rooftop scene it still looks pretty comparable.

Eh still looks good to me. I stopped thinking everything we see in videos years before release will be how the game actually comes out. Saves from getting pissy about it later on. Can't wait for 5/25.

Stop posting this guys stuff. The amount of compression in his comparisons makes them completely illogical.

Here are direct feed screens from the game posted a few days ago.

Thread based on the same channel got closed last time. This is what the mods had to say


"Some games do get downgraded. When you have actual evidence of that, you can make a thread about it, but for this game the evidence is spurious so far. Heavily compressed screenshots being compared to direct feed images spins a false narrative and is heavily misleading. We can and ought to do better."

The lighting and textures are different, but it really does look like the 2018 comparison is from a more compressed or lower res video source. Especially in the wide shots it looks like the overall resolution is lower. Which I guess would also a downgrade, but this is hardly definitive.

Edit: that's what I get for finishing a post ten minutes later.

Seriously, though, hate youtube.

These comparison videos (meaning this guy's) should be banned on here, I mean come on. He clearly uses compressed to all hell youtube on 'auto' with a shit connection so it is only getting 360-480p, and not direct feed.

This same crap happened last time with GoW.

All they serve is 'confirmation bias' to pile on, with such fallacy of comparisons. Disingenuous. It really is Gamefaq's level of content.

Watching the the trailer, it is heavily compressed. I wouldn't draw any conclusions until there is decent quality footage.

These are uncompressed 4K screenshots. Not sure if that really qualifies as "live feed", but regardless, they aren't really representative of a game running on a PS4. Let's keep that in mind.

That said, this channel has a history, it seems:

Hah, I knew this post sounded familiar...

Time to lock this one too.
