Nope.. that wasnt it at all.. but im just saying, we're talking about maxing graphics.

Don't know the limitations or whatever here, but Ronnie claims it was a huge graphics step forward

Looks pretty good for no scan eh?








compared to



I think part of the issue with the look of legends this gen, for some reason, has been due to improvements to facial animations. Last gen they could just focus on getting the look down for players. This gen they have worked on players emoting more through facial expressions. I think some where in this process of recreating legends faces and allowing various areas of their faces to move and become animated it has caused faces to be a bit distorted and inaccurate. Obviously with current players they can scan their faces and various expressions so they know how to accurately animate their faces. With legends they need to basically guess and manufacture how their faces would move. I know of witness instances during gameplay where a player could look great in one moment (usually when having a straight,expressionless face) and then look off or bad at a different point.

Just my speculation.

Technically you aren't getting much more on this gen especially since they want their games to run at 60fps. Only way the game is gonna be visually impressive is with authentic lighting, accurate body models and things like that.

Bodies in general are due to improve. Shoulder and neck areas are anatomicly off. Players like Irving and Barnes could easily compete for Mr. Olympia with a little shredding so don't expect much besides Durant.

2k always been committed to detail and I like the trade off for really neat looking faces.

Problem is they somehow can't display players in full quality ingame. Lighting, faces, skin and gadgets drop to low q. Up untill they can't solve this all those graphic improvements seem wasted.

Patiently waiting for a new motion engine. Would open up doors for Czar!

do you expect nothing but positivity? if people are negative they may have reasons (don't like what they see, past issues that haven't been addressed, etc)..it's just an opinion, everyone has one.

for example, overall Im happy with 2k. however, this year they have lost my excitement due to their ridiculous marketing. I'll still get the game. but a bad tasted in my mouth from marketing...is that negative? you can't expect all peaches and cream just because it's 2k. they still have their things they should be praised on, but things they need to work on too. on a good note, they keep improving, always. except for marketing. lol
