Resident Evil 2 remake is out! | |
| Anonymous Coward User ID: 1405639  United States02/05/2019 04:46 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Lol this is the second game I've played in 15 years, I honestly don't have time for games anymore but I downloaded it for nostalgia too. Runs smooth on gtx 1070 2560x1080 with settings maxed. Not sure what fps it is running but it's very playable. |

Quoting: Anonymous Coward 77296131 They can't think of new ideas so now they are remaking old games? Is that the reason the new Call of Duty and Fallout don't have single player options. The writers are too stupid and lazy to come up with a story?! Its definitely heading towards this path sadly. |

At least according to the original IGN review. [link to www.youtube.com (secure)] I was visiting a nearby Wal-Mart a while ago. I went to their Electronics area and found out that Resident Evil 2 Remake was already out. Wow! It's also being sold for about $50 I think. So if you don't mind plopping down a chunk of change for the game, Cannabis Kills People, go for it. It does look pretty good to me. The pc graphics are tight, not sure about PS4. It would look better with RTX/global illumination though. I don't have an RTX but it goes without saying. As for the darkness, one can just calibrate that in the settings. If I understand the RTX graphics card debacle correctly RTX cards are literally rebranded GeForce 1080 GTX cards. Usually in video games having a darkness problem all you need to do is just max out the Gamma or brightness setting. The RTX cards have tensor cores and dedicated raytracing processor so it's fairly novel. The Titan pascals had tensor cores but the GTX line only has the cuda compute section. Basically, the GTX line will never be able to raytrace in real time. Ah. Well, from what I understand even the RTX cards can't raytrace in real time either. NVIDIA is scamming hard, but then again the entire graphics industry is a giant scam unfortunately. Conspiracy Theorist is nothing more than a derogatory title used to dismiss a critical thinker. A time is coming when men will go mad, and when they see someone who is not mad, they will attack him, saying, 'You are mad; you are not like us." -- St. Anthony The Great Social Credit Loser here. |

I think it's a step in the right direction but I hear you, it's not a full-on raytracing solution, but it still offers a lot that is impossible with rasterization alone. It's a mix. The RTX 2080 can do about 5 rays per pixel at 1080p, which is enough to do a few cool tricks like raytraced speculars, G.I. contribution, etc. I develop with Unreal engine and I use the hell out of Nvidia's VXGI (voxel based global illumination). I can't imagine doing a lot of projects without it anymore, it looks so damned good. |

Eye candies are wonderful these days for video games, but I am personally at a point where I strongly believe we're at a point where eye candies are pretty much as realistic as they can get in a video game without that video game becoming real life. So instead of going for more realism in video games we should be focusing on better story telling. Conspiracy Theorist is nothing more than a derogatory title used to dismiss a critical thinker.
