The monkey's paw curls. New AAA games now feature thousands of individual rock models, among other labor- and space-saving measures being forgone in favor of realism. The game is 400 GB and the devs have worked 110 hours per week for the last 3 months

All you did was describe the current sad trajectory of AAA games anyway.

Thought he was describing CoD lol

Why did the finger curl? Nothing changed

[-] Dabundis@lemmy.world 8 points 8 months ago

I should have specified. This finger curled 15 years ago

[-] Gullible@sh.itjust.works 10 points 8 months ago

There was a game that came out a few years ago that scanned in most of its rocks for photorealism. I can’t recall the name. EA was the publisher, I think?

[-] Vee4@lemmy.world 8 points 8 months ago

I think the newer Star Wars Battlefront games did that.

Tons of games do that now. Usually they get scans and models from other companies, like Quixel Mega scans. It makes for a relatively fast workflow. Pretty much any photo-real game is doing something like this, it's just more affordable than paying people to digitally sculpt rocks by hand.

UE5 uses mega scans of real world assets.

And all the 5GB worth of rocks were generated using a single Houdini script.
