For a game that has been released since February 2022 to only have bullshots on their steam page... Edit: Even the trailer they have on the steam page for the pc release has barely 10 seconds of real gameplay in 1:30 minutes, they really dont believe in people buying the game for what it is.
The trailer is all ingame content. The game has been out for a year, it's not that hard to check. None of it is a bullshot.
The game has been out for more than 2 years, not 1, most of what is in the trailer and screenshots of the steam page is cinematics and bullshots, bullshots are in game images edited to appear better than they are, most of those fit that definition, both by framing and by retouches that are not present in moving gameplay, like lighting fixes, focus, depth of field etc. Im not critizing the game, just stating what is on that steam page, which is pretty sad for a game that has been out for more than 2 years and has pretty good graphics by itself.
It's the photo mode, it's just ingame images. Literal screenshots. This is stupid.
Thanks for stating im right. Have a nice day and try to not be so passive agressive with someone that is stating facts and not even saying anything bad about a game in an online forum.
It's okay to just say I was wrong. Reddit was better than lemmy has become honesty. It's full of this shit.
Maybe you should reflect on that mate, even if it was true that those were done in photo mode, not in engine, photo mode does let them change light, focus, blur, depth of field, and so on, which would by definition be already bullshots not how the game looks in movement. Not to say that its obvious most of the steam pics do have post edits. So yeah, i think this place is indeed becoming worse than reddit, there people wasnt so protective of game companies to such a stupid level and people didnt take offense from a comment about the steam page of a game that doesnt even talk about the game itself.
