Okay why isn't every game loading that fast then? We know that it's a respawn. People aren't daft.
Games that dont kick the stage out of RAM at respawn do allow your character to respawn that fast.
All the way back to games like Jak and Daxter if the stage wasnt booted the respawn was near instant.
Almost every Call of Duty game has near instant respawning because the majority of the stage if not the entire stage sits in RAM.
This specific example from Godfall isnt "that great" an example of the SSD at work because we see it isnt kicking the stage or AI out of RAM on respawn.
Astros is a better example because its loading the whole stage in like 2 seconds.
P.S Games that stream data in delete the portions you have passed so when you need to respawn it has to reload that section.
I could sit and hunt down examples of games that load stages or atleast portions of stages where death and respawn are very very quick because all the game is doing is moving the camera back and spawning a player entity.
If the game needs to reset the stage it adds more time.
Godfall doesnt seem to even be resetting the stage it just continues that state with a new player entity.
