This is an insult ND, NT's not even in the same stratosphere as them.
Yes because 500 employees since 2020 didn't release a single original game are on another level... of wokeness..

where ninja theory that are almost 1/5th its size was able to produce a game that graphically is the best-looking game to date on consoles ( I don't even like it. but I do give credit where it's due. To me, hell blade 2 is one of those games that looks amazing and plays like shit. but again.. this thread is about best looking not best game as that hands down goes to ND. I think all their games play better than anything Ninja Theory released ... except maybe DmC as that game was awesome for what it was )

It's hard to swallow for a PlayStation fan, but I get it. Here's tissue. Take as much as you want.

I honestly would argue at this point that ND isn't even a shell of its former self. those remasters or remakes or putting the Last of us 2 engine in Last of us 1 aren't really worth mentioning as ports because they are simply a scam to suck more money from the blind fanboys.

you get a bigger difference from the same game on PC when it's low vs high settings lol.

your point

and to completely destroy your point you are comparing a digital double head scan with scanned textures to characterized head sculpt. head scan is a partnership with 3lateral/unreal and ninja theory. 3 Lateral/unreal does the head scan textures and face rig and delivers that to Ninja theory. ninja puts their texture tweaks( face paint etc) on that rig. And they used unreal 5 engine to develop the game. that cuts dow staff size significantly.

ND development, engine, characters modeling, rigs besides outsourcing some asset outsourcing is all in house. Not taking anything away from Ninja Theory, its not the same.

One company makes games, the other one walking simulators with minimal gameplay. Cannot really compare them.

I think with the minimal gameplay approach, a lot of other companies could create similar graphically impressive games.
