December 11, 20214 yr One has to think that the time when its pretty much impossible to tell real from digital is nearly here.... The Matrix Awakens' is an Unreal Engine 5 demo you can preload today Quote On December 9th, Epic Games will release The Matrix Awakens, an interactive tie-in to The Matrix Resurrections. You can preload the demo to your PlayStation 5 or Xbox Series X/S console ahead of its debut at The Game Awards. Epic built the experience using Unreal Engine 5, and you can see what the next-generation engine is capable of in a teaser the company shared today. “How do we know what is real?” asks a life-like Keanu Reeves partway through the clip.

The 'uncanny valley' is still pretty strong in these video clips - a number of body movements look artificial, timing of speech is out by microseconds, wrong texture and reflectivity of skin... Give it another decade and we might get there. That said, I do really like UE5 and how realistic scenery, objects and lighting in gaming have all become.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BYQmp1ZM0jM AMD Ryzen 5800X3D; MSI RTX 3080 Ti ; 32GB Corsair 3200 MHz; ASUS VG35VQ 35" (3440 x 1440) Fulcrum One yoke; Thrustmaster TCA Captain Pack Airbus edition; MFG Crosswind rudder pedals; miniCockpit FCU; CPFlight MCP 737; Logitech FIP x3; TrackIR MSFS; Fenix A320; A2A PA-24; HPG H145; PMDG 737-600; AIG; RealTraffic; PSXTraffic; FSiPanel; REX AccuSeason Adv; FSDT GSX Pro; FS2Crew RAAS Pro; FS-ATC Chatter
December 11, 20214 yr I see that gameplay has not evolved. Until that happens, these "experiences" will only ever be arcade games.

That being the case, we are only seeing the edges of the possible. I was talking about the introductory pieces to camera by virtual Keanu Reeves in both of those clips, as much as the showcased gameplay. The virtual human still looks wrong when designed by computer, but is getting better. Deep fakes are the more convincing tech, right now (the concerns over that are for a different thread). Despite that game designers still go with 'press RB1 now', 'press Y twice now', it is impressive where we are with gaming consoles. The Xbox series X has better hardware than a lot of people's PCs.
