Plus, photorealism is boring games are about escaping reality unless of course it's a sim like xplane or msfs

Not really, if the game requires a specific setting to have the lighting look good then it isn't the best lighting around. Any game with true Path Tracing blows it out the water in that regard then.

The game is a jankfest but it's surprisingly well optimized. I'm on a shitbox from 2015 and have no issues with getting 60 fps on medium settings.

>>737062110
Literally just fancier bump mapping.

>>737068872
Why would you say it has good lighting when it doesn't is the real question. I asked for a comparable game and you gave me something not in any way comparable as far as I can tell.

>>737069174

You know what, I'll say it: Photorealism is fucking boring, especially when combined with a realism aesthetic. I'm looking at this, and I'm bored to fucking tears. Look, endless gray mountains, oh look a gray concrete ruin, and back there behind this ocean of featureless rock, there's a gray concrete tower. Or perhaps you'd like to explore that expanse of generic trees? Where's the distinctive style, the exaggerated features to make the world look interesting and magical? It's fucking dull as hell to look at.

We need to go back to worse graphics with weirder designs.

Better graphical capabilities doesn't mean you have to give up stylization. The path-traced rendering engine Pixar uses (RenderMan) is significantly beyond what real-time 3D graphics engines are currently capable of, but that doesn't stop them from delving into the vivid art styles they're renowned for.

These days you're mostly only limited by your imagination.

>>737061484
That looks kino. Metro was always a technical powerhouse

>>737071473
That isn't even photorealistic, you're unironically braindead.

Have you ever been outside, anon? Serious question, because any passing familiarity with what rocks, trees, or buildings look like would tell you very quickly that Crimson Desert is very obviously going for an as realistic as possible look. How you can even claim that the game isn't chasing photorealism is honestly baffling when a single look tells you the whole story.
Or wait, is your retardation actually not that you don't know what reality looks like, but rather that the inclusion of any fictional and/or fantastic event precludes a game from going for photorealism?
