Like many things, the game industry is based on people’s expectations of pleasure. Players are always looking forward to the next unsold masterpiece, and the production team always uses a beautiful trailer to promise the player a future masterpiece. But unfortunately, in many cases the trailer does not represent the actual picture of the final work
Here are 15 games that obviously have shrinking image quality
1. “Nobody Deep Space”.
“Unmanned Deep Space” is a very special situation. Its debut is amazing. It shows the players a planet full of strange alien creatures and a universe spread over livable planets. Later screenshots also showcased a huge space fleet and an epic space war. However, the game that was finally released was very empty. The traces of randomization generated by the stage were very obvious. The problem was that the basic material generated randomly was relatively simple, the content of the game was highly repetitive, and the interesting and spectacular scenes in the video were nowhere to be found. Fortunately, Hello Studio continued to make unremitting efforts after the game was released, and the “No Man’s Deep Space” was greatly updated and improved, and the content and screen were significantly improved
2. “Watchdog”.
“Watchdog” was first unveiled at E3 2012, when it presented a very powerful light and shadow effect and a busy open world. There are so many pedestrians and vehicles on the street that the wind can blow most soft objects, including the main coat. However, when the game was finally released, it was completely different. Basically, there was no dynamic light and shadow, and the number of NPCs was not much. If you use a top PC and turn on full effects, you can barely see the shadow of some promos, but most players feel that they have received deception. Therefore, it is no wonder that the “watchdog” also has the title of “shrinking dog” in China
3. “Rainbow Six: Siege”.
“Rainbow Six: Siege” has experienced a growth path that has skyrocketed. When it was first shown in 2014, the promo film gave people a feeling of real-time environmental damage, and also showed many dynamic light and reflection effects. The starting state of “Rainbow Six: Siege” is not perfect. Although the core function of the wall has been realized since then, the visual effect is shrunk to the naked eye. I believe no one is willing to recall the long hostage. What? Fortunately, today’s “Rainbow Six: Siege” has grown into an excellent work of picture and gameplay
4. “Dark Soul 2”.
“Dark Soul 2” has the lowest position in the trilogy, not only the scene design has regressed, but also the picture has not reached the level in the propaganda film. Although the player evaluation is not particularly collapsed, the most puzzling thing is that the character details, particle effects, environmental materials and other screen elements in the demo released in April 2013 are better than the full version. How to say it is good, others shrink using the propaganda film as a reference, and “Dark Soul 2” shrinks with the demo as a reference, how suddenly I feel that the form studio has shrunk and shrink so sincere?
5. Alien: Colonial Army.
This game is a well-known ancestor in the shrinking world, directly allowing players to initiate class actions on the grounds of deceiving consumers. “Alien: Colonial Army” earned enough expectations before it was released in 2013, but the game effect was very different from the propaganda film from the screen effect to the atmosphere. It did not catch the essence of the Alien movie. The failure of this work also led to no other game development team to develop other “Shaped” games of the same name for a long time
6. “White Knight Story”.
Level-5 Studio’s “White Knight Story” appeared in the promotional video with a first-class animation production technique to present a stunning picture, but when it comes to releasing a promotional video in 2008, the game looks very different. It is. The character details are not at one level, and the field fine material and light and shadow effects are also significantly reduced
