DF Direct: PlayStation 5 / Unreal Engine 5 Reaction - Now This Is Next-Gen! 

Might be true

It rendered his English indecipherable! (I'm kidding! His English is way better than my French)

such technology.

Whoa dude

John Alex - reverse it - coincidence ? Bush did 9/11

Draanor agreed, it’s insane the changes this will make to the art pipelines. Having the engine just automatically build the lighting, and the removal of the need to retopologise and UV unwrap assets is crazy. It’s just insane

Yeah, agree. The graphic quality will be not really have big difference (aside from ray tracing), but (at least i hope) there will be big difference in level design, interactivity, etc from more simplified workflow

"it just works" ~ Todd Howard

@@Clarkey7163 its insane but its how it should of always been

I got really hard when they said assets could just be imported straight from Zbrush, this makes things so much easier for artists

Ikr ? It was so awesome!!

well a tech demo without gameplay is useless

@@PixelTrooper and a "gameplay" trailer without actual gameplay is...

@Valhalla Rising You do know this demo was in 1440p 30fps right? If you didn't then you need to watch the video...lol

True

Yup! I watched that scarf the entire demo, and not ONCE did I see any clipping at all! :D

Like Cyberpunk 2077 for example, that's going to be amazing.

Cyberpunk 2077 remastered for next gen then

you mean ghostwire tokyo ? Hell yeah son !

Thinking of that Unreal Engine 4 tech demo?

You can get that from "Sleeping Dogs".

tbh all tech demos should be like this

Thats why its called the *unreal* engine

All pre-rendered, that made zero sense.

DogTown you’re saying this is pre rendered?

Well, thats what tech demos are.

I can only imagine how good the next God of WAR will look on the PS5

P Holmes We’re a for a treat. THANK YOU MARK CERNY.

Lmao 🤣

@@Agnes135 I don't think any PS studio runs on Unreal

I guess, any game performance issue should be sorted out after running through the game engine's profiler

There are still a lot of what if's that would need to be answered first. Authoring meshes with 35+ million tris is a pretty messy affair and would only create more headaches if you needed to rig it for animation or do a destruction pass. The improvements to lighting, rendering, and LOD management will help speed things up; but I'm not fully convinced it would speed up asset creation all that much. IMO developers would be better off authoring their assets the same way but instead, utilize displacement for up-close detail like Bluepoint did on Demon Souls. I'd love to be proven wrong, but it's too early to say rn

If you save hours of worked hours, your costs fall, and also accordingly the price you can charge. Profits are directly linked to exploited human work. Less human work, less hours you can exploit, and less profits, in the average production and distribution economic cycle. This is basical Marx.

I was always curious, is a third party engine better than a in house one ?

Agreed with everything except the last sentence - you know that as we get more time-efficient in our processes, that time saved is never returned to the workers, it just means that the next project can start sooner. Expect to be exploited, just with better tools. Tons of profits for sure.

Honestly, I think the high poly tech is too good to be true for now. Don't you think? I want to believe it's true but having billions of polygons with no restrictions and 8K textures and just running fine doesn't sound right.. hahaha

Leo M im not a developer but i am a producer. So im assuming devs will be credited for these games, surely being able to develop more games in less time would make for more advanced payments, and then more royalties in less time?

It always cracks me up when I spot it

Lol, I heard they are developing ray tracing for all , so who knows maybe they will Remake Crisis with thier new engine for next gen using new global illumination system just like what we saw in unreal 5

@@ludologian they are already making a crysis remastered with ray traced reflections. Its been officially announced a while back. And add far as global illumination goes, cryengine has had fully dynamic voxel ray traced global illumination since long ago. And obviously crysis remastered will use that. Unreal engine also tried to make a fully dynamic voxel ray traced global illumination, built they failed to do it without causing a massive performance hit, they even admitted this and also admitted that cryengine was able to do it. There is some nice competition going on here. I love it.

@@ludologian Whatever they do, cryengine had always a more realistic look than unreal engine.

@@ludologian Crysis Remake wont need Unreal's implementation as CryEngine's solution is superior, Crytek's SVOGI is the only lighting technique that can get slightly close to RTGI (Ray Traced Global Illumination) , in the end, both are inferior to RTGI but Unreal's solution is far inferior, Crytek's solution is not THAT much worse. If RTX 3000 series truly has a 400% performance boost in Ray Tracing over 2000 series, then all of these rasterization lighting techniques will essentially become obsolete, as the Ampere GPU's will allow devs to use fully RT'd lighting without losing almost any performance, so my conclusion is that all of these solutions will be almost exclusively console-aimed , particularly the PS5 since the XSX will be able to Ray Trace a lot better than the PS5. I seriously hope Sony's first party devs figure out a way to achieve a similar end result as either UE5 or CE5 (almost impossible though).

Indeed, for several years now, one has been able to create 3rd-generation console games with only art tools (no programming skills required). And later this year, perhaps 4th-generation console games as well. Perhaps by the 2030s, we'll have game design so automated that even AAA games will become ridiculously fast, easy, and cheap to produce!

Unreal 4 itself was already a quantum leap, especially for artists. The game I worked on prior to a UE4 title was on an in-house engine at a small indie studio so usability was utter gash compared to what things like the material editor afford you. Can't wait to get my mitts on this!

Demos are not the same as games. Game performance and demo performance are not 1:1. Games have hundreds or thousands of different scripts, models, animations, deformations etc. Dumping assets with millions of polys into games is not a good practice, and the processing power used on rendering objects with unnecessarily high poly-counts can be used elsewhere much better.

Would be nice if they could pump out twice as many games but if its this easy like they say i doubt it. As if nobody had this idea before, it probably brings difficulties they havnt mentioned that has put people off. Pc has had over 10 teraflop gpus for years and has had pc only games developed without using this method so its not due to gpu power.

And AAA developers like Activision/EA/Ubisoft are gonna continue bitching about how games are more expensive to make every year, just as an excuse to put their lootboxes and MTs in their games. Heck I can even see a future where games are all made entirely by AI and companies like EA are still gonna push for microtransactions citing "development costs" as the reason lol. No matter how cheap it gets to make them, we the players won't see the benefits, just more trash games coming out faster than ever.

I hope PC2 gets RRTX QUADRO TITAN X TI SLI graphics!

*cried on core 2 duo,2gb ram,intel hd graphic

I hope Next Gen PC2 gets Next Gen SSD and a controller with a rumble pak

@@jamezxh next gen pc will have an ssd in its gpu. Mark my words.

@@nomoredistraction329 Well they already have that. AMD created one with if I remember right a 1TB SSD onboard as a cache to greatly speed up certain applications like video editing raw files. It's beneficial in that it just stores all the data on board so the GPU doesn't have to ask the CPU for data, CPU get that data from memory, memory to fetch, memory to return, and then the CPU send every bit over the PCI pipeline to the GPU. So yeah it just basically sent the entire raw file to the SSD onboard once then was done and was used a basically L4 Cache.

if you work with ue4 daily.. are you making some game ?

There is an announced that Epic is waiving fees for less than a million dolars.

My office who works with Unreal was giddy as a kid as well. We definitely got less work done today because of this demo.

I don't think people fully understand how this new tech just opened the floodgates for so many things. I play in Unreal Engine, but most of my work is on the pre-rendered side of things. If what this tech does as advertised, that line between real-time and pre-rendered pipelines is going to get hazy in a way previously unheard of. There's been buzz-word style examples in the past of game engines getting on the same-par as pre-rendered, but the barrier of optimization and working high-poly models to something workable in an engine has been the divide and norm since the beginning of time. To be able to just drag and drop a high-quality photogrammetry scanned object into a game environment and call it a day without checking for topology is... I have no words for that. To see that many high-poly Z-Brush models just happening to be in the same environment literally made me stand-up from my chair.

What if UE5 isn't free and open source? :o

ephphatha230 I feel like we're not quite there yet. This is a big leap for tech but in possibly 2 future generations we won't be able to tell reality from pc generated graphics in real time, not just static images

Good one, 5G and UE5 my body is ready

@@antwango ahem, Digimon would like to introduce itself

I love how development blew up through the ages and only now developers get stuff like this and Vulkan, making their job easier and giving us more performance

If the publisher is greedy enough to use those "easier way" as excuse to release subpar game sooner, i think the dev will have the same amount time to focus on the game itself

@@swordsman1137 I think that's a cynical way of looking at games. Not every game is going to be for everyone.

Tbh the overrall graphics quality and visual effects of this demo do not look that different from current pre rendered graphics. Yeah sure some of it is real time and more optimized, but they still have a long way to go before they can actually achieve what cryengine did back in the day.

@@RockyRacoon5 These days everyone needs a step by step explanation of everything what is being said. Otherwise it goes over their heads it seems....

You got dam right Victor Crackhead! 👀🤘

exactly ..the difference is that ur4 engine demo was never running on the ps4. This is running on ps5. The specs are way higher i don't know why people don't believe the new systems are capable of this. John and Alex both think they are their questions were about how will it scale.

@@CC42_ people are let down in other places of their lives and project it onto their hobbies lol. Yes - it will be interesting to see how it scales. Given the new systems have so much more memory and processing power to work with I think we will see some very impressive results. I think we all need to remember too that this is the first wave of games, and that you will see game engines really squeeze every ounce out of these systems in the coming years.

There was a version of that UE4 demo running on PS4 hardware... And did you forget about Driveclub which wasn't even using UE4 and I think pushed well beyond what we saw in that demo all at 30FPS in 1080p. Granted UE4 games didn't push graphics on the current PS4/XO consoles anywhere near as far as they initially showcased.

@@CC42_ Disappointing that DF never really talked about the instant streaming from the SSD, which no other system can do and this was mentioned in the Unreal video by the devs.

@@Rufnek2014 that's a different solution to the same issue though. You can get the ssme result with a better GPU and more power in general. It's not a game changer. It just helps supplement the lack of power compared to say, the series x. And again, as he said, its optimized for all hardware across the board. Which means it wont be optimized primarily for that ssd. Because that isnt standard on the rest of the next gen platforms.

No.... pop.... in..... Imagine that? My biggest turn off in any game is excessive pop in. Cant wait to see this in a couple years.

3rd Way this engine is actually going to be cutting hours in development, the ray tracing and the nanite system is actually going to make it easier to make games look good

You could accomplish this with even the Unreal engine 3, a movie render. Not as high quality but still...And with the Cryengine 2 you could already create photorealistic scenes...if it's not too dense. Not saying I'm not impressed...just reminiscing the mid 2000 tech leap.

Probably less. This is a render technique of just HQ assets not a multi-asset swap thing including HQ and LQ assets. My guess. Unless of course the game has the "Low" quality options that translates to legacy techniques where all of the above still has to be included.

@@tylernol1566 Was just thinking along the same lines. In the current method, you still have some massively detailed models (though not to "billions of triangles" level), but also all the LoD models as well. "Billions" though is a *big* step - you could have a thousand LoD models for a 3-orders increase.

file size of what? a tech demo? youtubers should be the ones to explain how this bares little meaning but that wouldn t give them views. but if you like tech demos just go around youtube videos, you can find really old tech demos even more impressive

But game files are only bloated from the perspective of limited storage and poor Wi-Fi, right? If the storage on the PS5 is bigger and Wi-Fi gets better, then I don't see a problem.

Size doesn’t matter

don't completely fall for it. after actual ai, objects, and gameplay get involved everything has to be rebalanced and there will be downgrades. there always is

Consider the original UE4 tech demo and how few games ever approached that level of detail and quality.

One thing that impressed me was that I was amazed with this demo, but I only saw it on a 1080p RU-vid stream. Image composition, not resolution is going to matter most. This was a perfect example why TFLOPs aren't everything. Being able to stream high quality assets is a huge deal. Oh and that demo sounded totally bad ass. Tempest engine will be no joke.

Yea, probably a lot of "ray-traced" or some other software "dynamic lightning" option. Since they really change the look and feel of a game more then most people realize. And many current gen PS4 games would scale really well I think.

ttomato182 difference is, this was gameplay. Hellblade was a cinematic.

@@TheOff1ceFan you mean tech demo...

@@Richbroth An equivalent of a vertical slice. Standard tech demos might be stuff like The Samaritan for UE3 or The Heretic for Unity earlier this year, basically animations. This is not an animation, you can play it - move the character and camera around, go through the level and interact with the world. The Epic devs confirmed it in the interview with Keighley, and also confirmed the video is a direct capture from live code on a PS5 devkit.

Adam Peters yea... a tech demo that you can play... Thus the word gameplay.

That is what I’m most excited about. Normal games will certainly look better but VR games will see a truly enormous jump in graphics and immersion.

Indeed. When in VR the illusion of things like Normal Maps falls apart rather quickly. This looks like it will eliminate that problem entirely!

Don't count on it. PS5 would have to run that demo at 120fps (which is 60fps per eye since VR has to render two separate left and right images at the same time to create the 3D image). So you would essentially need two PS5's linked together running this demo at 60fps (each eye) to get that type of quality. Keep in mind 60fps per eye is minimal and 90fps is ideal.

there are already some cool tech being developed to help optimize vr. some are trying to do a retina scan to track what part of the screen you are looking at and focusing processing in our field of vision. instead of full blown resolutions when we aren't looking at stuff. think of it like when you focus on something up close everything around it fades in detail.

@@rotaryperfection Was there a mention of resolution on this demo that I missed? Without that, and therefore a pixel count, you can't really come to that conclusion. If they were rendering this demo at 4k, the Valve Index, for example, is capable of 1440x1600 per eye. Both lenses pixel count combined is still considerably less than 4k resolution. Then there's the fact that a first person perspective will have a narrower FOV, which is less to process. You are right on the 90fps though, but that is a matter of individual ability to stomach lower framerates.

Yes, please new Tomb Raider with this technology

Lol, yeah its impressive but I'm guessing you haven't seen GoW, Uncharted 4, Death Stranding's visuals. Those few games set the new bar as of now. Imo. But Forza Horizon 4 on PC is incredible too, as is GT Sport on PS4 just to name some racing games.

And Anthem may have looked great in the trailers but Ubisoft isn't the top in visuals, for me personally.

@@cyanprince00 Forza Horizon 3 is just the start buckaroo and boy does it look so good especially in photo mode. Wait till FM8 and FH5 son.

@@DarrenHoussein I'll wait then buckaroo!

LMAOOOO he ballin'

I ain't playin with no DILLLLLDO

Seriously. We on that quiple now bruh.

Lmfao! The LEGEND! 😂 (He's around 18:55 for those wondering)

Xbox ain't got no gaymez is truer than ever. 😅

Lmao

Lol 😂

Next gen switch with dlss might perhaps?

Berkay Demirci hardware accelerated DLSS 3.0 cause Nintendo is in bed with NVIDIA, renders at 1x2 upscale to 1080p looks better than native 8K, gotta love NVIDIA

@@berkaydemirci the videocard supporting this level of tech is larger than the Switch itself

Fantasy simulation ftw

Playing through HL Alyx yesterday felt like reality already. Just crazy.

Still haven't watched fully, there's no raytracing in that demo?????

@@prezidenttrump5171 and do you know? If so, please explain

@@prezidenttrump5171 RT = Raytracing | DLSS = An AI based Anti Aliasing. It makes sense to me.

@@looeegee well there is no real indication for raytracing (maybe in the global illumination part, but they don't mention it) And the impressive things they show of and explain have nothing to do with RT or DLSS.

I am yet to be super impressed by RT. If it doesn't get some ground over the next couple of years, it might have been pre-mature. Maybe it will morph and evolve into something else (highly likely).

@Equinox Man all depends of the devs but it can look like that

@Equinox Man AAA games Will ir even surprass from mid to end of the nextgen. I wouldnt doubt Horizon 2 is looking on par with this already. Decima Engine is insane, so is the talent of guerrilha games when It comes to graphics

Agreed, situations like cutscenes where camera angles are generally fixed may still use baked in lighting in order to save resources for other aspects of the scene.

probably a cake

While that is undoubtedly an advantage, I am afraid "Last gen" mistakes are being made all over again here. Now the consoles actually have the hardware to push 60fps on more cinematic games and up to 120/140 on others, but it again looks like developers are gonna use the extra power to unnecessarily up the graphics (and save time while they do it) and instead be fine with 30fps. As a PC player I couldn't care less in theory, but these games usually do end up on the PC and just don't run very well.

@@HansLollo exactly. Looks like it's gonna be a repeat of the 7th gen where people were overwhelmed by the new graphical possibilities and cut down on performance greatly.

@@HansLollo well graphics are still easier to sell than gameplay. I hope we eventually will get to a point where the different in graphics start to give smaller and smaller returns thus people will be less and less wow'd by it and we all can go back to playing games where not the graphics are front and center.

No it's not boring.

Agreed! Sor4 is my favorite game of 2020 so far!

All types of games are fun, including big open world cinematics like rdr2 and ghost of Tsushima....its the execution and quality of the game, not the type of game it is.

Yes in 4k and in cinematic 30 FPS 😂😂😂

Imagine this on pc

@@88Somi Funny how not even the 2080ti can run rd2 4k 60fps at max settings

@@Foogi9000 no one will be doing games only for PC anymore , PC always will be held back by console

@@88Somi this was 1440p 30fps

You mean the 3rd party games shown, that are also going to be on ps5, and look the same on ps5 and Xbox? Those games trailers?

The sad part is with the retail ps5 been eaker then the devkit is this demo really possible on the ps5 and what cut will be needed, shame it wasnt on the retail ps5 then you would be right to be excited

james w your comment didn’t make a brink of sense

@@joshuapullins8815 i quite frankly dont care if they look better or worse on whichever console id just rather have things demonstrating visuals running on hardware if possible. Especially at a showcase event like that.

@@GrainMuncher James is a dedicated Xbox Cultist, he spends his days downplaying everything about PS5. Check his post history.

i want it like each pixel can hold more than one triangle

Ramon Nakamura And?

obviously series x will be able to run this at higher resolution.

Z A after their event, doesn’t look like it lmao

@@TylerBR97 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 There is so many clueless people in the world, what you see in inside xbox were games, real games, this is just a tech demo....

Z A higher resolutions come at much higher cost. Don’t expect too much like this in 4K. It’s just 1.8 tf peak difference.

I think that actually makes the demo slightly more impressive, as they always like to show the ground and everything while they're wet in these kind of showcases, but nope, it was all dry this time and still looked amazing

lt will never look like the real thing,if you are asking that

@Symen Jager agreed, the water looked kinda weird for some reason

@@MochiMac17 water rendering is fundamentally different from all of the rendering they were trying to show off in the demo. Water rendering is bad almost everywhere because it relies a lot on volumetric optics rather than geometric optics. More triangles can represent a surface more clearly, but it does nothing to help shade fog or spray or the dust of a murky puddle. These sorts of materials do not break down well into triangular surface representations. Water physics is also much more difficult to do well compared to the rigid body physics they showed off with the rocks and collapsing buildings. Translucent materials also don't tend to play well with lighting or antialiasing because they don't have "surfaces" that can contribute to the depth buffer or velocity buffer to help with motion blur and TAA.

I will spoil it for you: not well. Water is an unsolved problem even in offline rendering. It's particularly hard to get dynamic water to properly cling to surfaces and for rivulets (go look up some fluid sim research videos, they almost never include surface clinging). Also, pbr shading of wet surfaces hasn't really been expanded on since 2013.

I'm not sure if I want to get xbox or ps5 this gen, but I'm pretty sure I'm going crazy when horizon 2 and the new god of war comes out

@@gustavohuehue7460 same here👍 ..HZD 2 and GoW2 are just going to blow us away, bring it on

God of war? Pssh. I'm looking forward to what next gen open world games are gonna look like.

@@GuyLogen Spider-Man PS5

Except Horizon doesn't use Unreal, and I doubt they will change as they are surely a couple of years in dev for it - but with what the PS5 has, I am sure it will look amazing

Where’s your Xbox god now ?

@@SheikhMohammedIlham bro, UNREAL engine5 will be used to develop console and PC games lol, yes that means XBSX and PS5

I was thinking the same thing, awesome move by Sony. But, it sets a very high expectation for the launch titles. It will backfire if the games are too far behind this,

ggali09 I actually forgot that mic even existed lol.

Lundin Krejci check between your couch cushions, it’s there haha

They're using pro mics off-camera for the video edit. The earphone mic is to communicate over the call with Alex.

110 million of them

mrpositronia don’t ruin the magic lol

No it won't. This takes advantage of the superfast SSD in PS5. They praised it and said it was far ahead of PC-SSD (Which basically Xbox got) A quote: It’s one thing to render everything that can fit in memory,” he adds, but a much more impressive feat to render a world that “might be tens of gigabytes in size” almost instantaneously, as Sony’s new console and its M.2 solid-state drive are promising.

Martin Schmidt that’s where your wrong

@@reyesarsenal9 They even mentioned in the video that this tech scales heavily with the gpu wich the sX has a better one. So it will at least look the same.

@Martin Schmidt exactly the only games that are probably going to take full advantage of that throughput on the ps5 are 1st party games

@@reyesarsenal9 youre so wrong its hilarious.

It was Lara Croft. She thought she was getting a new game.

It is in game

totally in-game,even though its not a game that''ll be at retail,sounds weird. but this is still literal gameplay from a ps5 we wont play,but still gameplay...its what to expect because its being played off a ps5 in real-time

Xbox fanboys are a thing y'know

1440p 30fps

@@MaxIronsThird I would play this at 1080p60fps very happy if they give the option.

We hear the same talk generation after generation. And generation after generation the new generation makes the old shit look... well, OLD. Look at how this generation CRUSHED that UE4 Samaritan demo. Looking back this demo will look quaint compared to actual games.

@@edeneal3336 more like 720p 60fps. I don't get how we still haven't reached 4K60 with these new machines.

Still it makes me goosebumps after 20 years!Holly crap I was 10 years old I just realised it... And that game is still my favourite!no game can surpass that epic plot and story!

Makes me feel like setting up LAM mines in Manderly's office....

What a coincidence, I'm playing through the game for the first time atm.

My thoughts as well : )
