I recently came across something amazing! Square Enix is developing a game engine called the "Luminous Engine" that is unparalleled from what I've seen. IT LOOKS LIKE FUCKING REAL LIFE!!!

It appears that they've gone for photo realism over the lusher painting-like graphics of other engines.

So far, no game has been official announced to use that engine. I wonder if this WILL ever be used in a game, as consoles will probably need at least 5 disks and pc users would need super computers to run it!

Right, here's the proof:

...Problem, Cryengine?

Not sure if want. I'm... not exactly sure if I could enjoy games if they looked that real. Killing someone would become traumatic. Sex scenes would just feel like filmed porn. Roleplaying... not sure how that would feel.

 

Eeks, we are getting so close to virtual reality its kind of scary.

I'm not sure that trailer is of any use really. All I see is just a camera going into an underground area. It could be faked for all I know.

 

If Square-Enix is serious about this engine being awesome, they should do a complete demo (akin to the FFVII PS3 demo) to show it off. Not just someone walking into an underground complex.

The cone to the left at the very beginning looks sort of unrealistic.

Also, search it, it's real and everywhere.

 

 

@Daguy, just imagine survival horror games with these graphics!

"Tech Demo of the new Luminous Engine by Square Enix. Will be released on Xbox 360' date=' PC, PS3 and [b']PSVita[/b]."

 

Fake, this consoles aren't capable of detailed polygon rendering :P

 

True, but who said that games made for these consoles with this engine will be at the level shown so far? I highly doubt it.

Now, I'm not one to be skeptical, I couldn't build a rendering of an empty room, but how hard could it be for a professional team of developers to make a hallway look realistic? And there's no way even the next generation of consoles could run that, without being way too expensive.

 

Unless, of course, the entire game takes place in that single cell.

Square's game output is only slightly better than ID's so the chance of seeing this engine used in many games is low. If they license their engine then maybe more developers could make use of it but then there is the problem of translation.

 

Capcom's MT Framework engine is way better than the Unreal3 engine for action/fighting games yet no one uses it except for Capcom cause the documentation is all in Japanese. If the Luminous engine can produce those effects in actual games then all I can say is "Wow", even if Square keeps the engine inhouse.....but a 15 sec video of basically nothing isnt something to get excited about. Lets see some real world applications first.

Just to clarify something, I'm not exactly fapping over this engine, nor am I really amazed by it, but with over 9/10ths of our users lurking in the adult mod threads, a catching title for a thread in the remote gaming section is necessary. A 15 second vid is just the teaser of a teaser and I realize that no games, even with that engine, will have those graphics.

totally fake. I was just waiting for Rick Ashley to start signing.

 

It's not fake, it's hard to believe, but It really is real. There are numerous articles, it was officially revealed. Although I admit that the corridor was a horrible example, it IS real. An alien would have probably been better though.

I am slightly in agreement with the person that wrote about having doubts of a games fun level if made at this ultra-realism look. I love fantasy / RPG and fighting games... I could see it working and keeping the awesome factor of fighting games but I like my fantasy / RPG games to be ... well fantasy games. Think about this in terms of something we can currently relate to... If Oblivion was done with this level of realism and them the lovers mods are added.... you now have an ondemand porn game... now add lovers creatures... I really don't want to see what that would looking like in a realistic setting. LOL

It could work with certain venues but not all imo.

I still believe that it is fake :P Last tech demo that I saw was running on something that even couldn't be called PC it was "custom" build monstrosity. And that was only face animations and some minor stuff. So I have hard time believing that such detailed real time rendering is possible, and ready for commercial use.

We'll have to wait until the next gen consoles and computer parts are released before we can achieve real life graphics and physics.

Whether the video is fake or not, there is no doubt that Square Enix is among the top when it comes to graphics. I just wish they would release a decent final fantasy game. After FF10 they have all been pretty lackluster, granted... I HAVE still played them all...

 

Actually now that I think about it, when was the last time Square Enix made a decent game that didnt come from a company they bought. I just hope Eidos doesnt succumb to the Squeenix virus and become Squidix.

Oh god' date=' zombies are grotesque enough in oblivion's graphics, but with real life graphics I wouldn't be able to tolerate it.

yeah but more of a problem would be the realism in violence like bullets shatter the skull in all directions n stuff, i would never play a fps thats near the horror of "real" weapon impacts.
