What engine did this GoY use?

They use their own custom engine they’ve been using since Infamous Second Son

Infamous Second Son is one of my favorites and the graphics still look good up there with next gen graphics.

So Insomniac use their own custom engine too right?

Insomniac, ND, Santa Monica, Suckerpunch, Media Molecule, Team Asobi and Guerilla all use their own custom engines.

Edit—- and Polyphany

I guess the only studios they have that don’t are Bend, Housemarque and Bluepoint.

One thing this game (and a lot of first party games) don’t get credit for is how flawless the performance is. Smooth 60fps with some lite ray tracing in an big open world game like this has been very nice, same with DS2.

Meanwhile every UE5 game is just a fukking disaster no matter the scope.

Yup, how it flawlessly changes from a normal shot, to a wide shot. How everything goes fast as shyt without a hitch. And everything looks hilariously beautiful is

Guerrilla is taking their time with Horizon 3 and I'm pretty sure the story is gonna be the worst of the series...but gameplay and "looks" are probably gonna be jaw dropping. Decima engine is on some other shyt.

It's been brought up a before but I really do appreciate how from jump Atsu is like "No, its fine, I an totally okay with the murdering, in fact thats why im here lmao"

What brightness are yall using. I did the wolf eyes shyt at the beginning and it put brightness to 10. Tried putting it up but nighttime is way too bright so I have been rolling with 10.

Depends on your TV (I think I got it at 4; using a LG CX) but if you got dramatic contrast set to on then your dark colour's may become too dark (crushed black) if youre playing on OLED

Yeah I have a Samsung oled I’m going to take that dramatic contrast off.

The Sony First party studios always leading the pack when it comes to pushing the visuals with their engine. They're the only ones I trust with a game day 1 running the way they intended it too. Everybody else just uses us as beta testers until a patch is released 2 weeks later lol

I gotta stay off twitter for a while, my entire timeline is nothing but yotei

Oh you mean the game that they swore wasn't going to do well because it's too woke!! Another L for the incel community

 

[O³ (O cubed)]

That Bounty Hunter Armour set to max,plus the odachi special move.

I'm gonna have to change the difficulty back to hard or lethal.

That shyt is a cheat code

This game's opening scene was VERY impressive from all standpoints. The score, sound effects, visuals and art direction.
