>games have become so taxing that that having an entirely separate world with high poly models just running in the background for some minimal immersion benefit isn't worth doing
wow! i for one cannot even fucking run doom 4 at 15 fps so im glad they at least tried to reduce the fluff
Hunter Ortiz
It is not.
There's quite literally not a sngle valid excuse.
None.
Ryder Cox
and yet it could be done with top of the line games back then, with computer power from 22 years ago

Wyatt Adams
>2016
umm sweetheart that's oldschool. Get with the times please
Parker Green
what is your point? duke nukem 3d wasn't even top of the line back then, quake was. its like saying just because minecraft has fully destructable worlds the latest battlefield should be able to handle it
Nolan Nguyen
>Quake
>not Descent
Full 3d in 1994, bitch
Ian Ward
C'mon that's not a valid excuse.
Technology doesn't grow in a linear line. Neither of us are developers so unless you actually read up why mirrors are difficult in modern games you're not gonna learn anything here.
Aiden Watson
>no shadows
>all corridors
Matthew Wilson
please see this, faggots :^)
Jordan Collins
someone have the mafia 3 one?
Andrew Walker
The reason you don't have mirrors in modern games today is because they don't even design the model of the character. Since you are only seeing it from first person, there is no reason to create a full scaled model of a character, you just need to design the guns and hands.
here's a reason why you couldn't use third person in mirrors edge. They don't even animate the model properly and its low res textured model

Samuel Sanchez
God, Quake was beautiful, wasn't it?
Easton Miller
half life 2 looked better and also couldn't afford mirrors. the real problem is doom 4 decided to add mirrors despite them not being functional
Brandon Allen
the absolute state of modern 'game developers'
Dylan Cruz
You just ignored the fact that doom 3, a truly top end game for the time, handled mirrors flawlessly.
Michael Butler
doom 4 has multiplayer models, thats probably not true
Owen White
its a corridor shooter with loading screens every ten steps, it proves nothing at all

Call me when you can play a quake level upside down

where is your god now
Matthew Sanders
>He hasn't experienced the orgasmic freedom that comes with 6 degrees of movement
Oh fuck it's literally descent now
Tyler Walker
funny how that even with 6 degrees of freedom you tend to gravitate toward the plane which 'looks' right
Jacob Cook
My PC gets well over 100 fps I doubt them adding mirros would ruin the experience.
Juan Wilson
it would be worth mentioning if it were an outlier, but show us a contemporary game that has working mirrors.
Dominic Harris
What methods for making mirrors work in vidya are there, Sup Forums?
Nolan Brown
>developers don't waste time and resources on something players will never see in a first person game
What a bunch of talentless hacks rite xD?
Jordan Nguyen
see
Kevin Brown
>fighting those leaping things with 6dof
They're nasty enough without them coming from every possible angle.
Ryder Turner
what game?
Austin Russell
>Doom 3, a game released in fucking 2004
>contemporary
Gavin Carter
doom 3 is only comparable to other corridor shooters like the new alien vs predator
Ayden Thomas
>contemporary
gotchu senpai
Carter Wright
>thinking gaming graphics has improved since Crysis in 2007
Noah Brooks
It's acceptable in a game like DOOM because it's not the kind of game where you take your time to look at every detail in the environment, you shoot things and you move to the next area.
Also it would make the game run worse for a stupid reason. I didn't even notice there were mirrors somewhere.
Doom 3 isn't the same thing, it was a slow and boring corridor shooter with small areas and they tried to make it scary and atmospheric, you were supposed to take your time looking at things.
Hitman 2016 has working mirrors so they still can do it when the game needs them.

but then how do i check for secrets???
checkmate atheist
Wyatt Young
Because they gave a cameo to sam hyde and he shared his tricks
Julian Roberts
This is what mirrors look like in Forza Horizon 3.
With everything maxed out and motion blur turned off.
Noah Nguyen
>implying they don't
Brayden Allen
Do you think that was in reference to Sam Hyde? I thought the same, but... Hayden...
Benjamin Butler
yeah but racing games kind of require mirrors otherwise the player will just crash into people approaching from behind.
Brayden Baker
>DUDE THE TESSELATION ON THIS DICK MAKES IT LOOK SO SMOOTH BRO!!
>YEAH CHECK OUT ITS FXAA AND MOTION BLUR
>SICK DUDE
>HEY GOYS DONT FORGET TO BUY THE CIRCUMCISION PACK ONLY $99.99!!
>TRULY OUR GREATEST ALLY
Ayden Smith
>being this triggered
Lincoln Wright
you're missing the point
Jaxon Davis
This
Looks worse than a 360 game.
Oliver Thompson
Racing game or not, it can be done. It just depends on the priorities of the devs.
If you don't max out the game, mirrors look like ass in Forza anyway.
Brayden Cooper
>Looks worse than a 360 game.
The fuck kind of games did you play on Xbox 360? Because I had one and no game looked as good on it as anything on PC, like ever.
Evan Cruz
Because it's no longer about cool details in games, it's all about how flashy and photorealistic the game has to look.
Noah Campbell
Logan Lopez
>600x338
Brandon Johnson
>>thinking graphics actually matter
but they do, not as much as gameplay but they do
Jace Richardson
No real excuse. Areas with mirrors are usually confined too so no magic needed.
Caleb Ross
Original Deus Ex had working mirrors I think. Maybe FEAR did too?
