When Sony Made Optimized Realistic Graphics By Fixing UE4 | An Urgent Frame Analysis.

In this video, we cover one of the most underrated technical marvels of graphics development. We show how this game provides wonderful lighting and immersive illusions that provide cheap micro detail all around the optimized geometry. We show how UE5 remains inferior to some aspects of this project and the history of UE4.

We also don't sugar coat the issues found in this title. Using our own goals on 9th gen development, we outline where 9th gen can enhance this titles' flaws.

We are here to provide the PROOF for gamers and guide developers about the modern issues with how realism is being destroyed by poor shader designs, workflows and false narratives.
