Why do you people have such a boner for reflections? They don't contribute to the overall gameplay or enjoyment.

it's upsetting because old games did it no problem, and some feel like it's a lazy oversight.

there was some amusing stuff done with mirrors in plenty of games. Silent hill 3 comes to mind right off the bat.

Maybe the twist is that the character is a vampire?

Doesn't break my immersion, you sound like a nitpicker.

A lot of games did things such as mirror models without doing real reflections.

Actually, programming real reflections isn't that hard, but you run into problems with reflections inside (like a player bringing a mirror in front of another mirror) reflections being unable to be handled with engines.

Yeah I was a little disappointed that I couldn't see my reflection. But then I went back to picking things up and throwing them around, so it's a fair trade.

I spent 3 years in dulce new Mexico and no they are not cool. They're all thieving alcoholics that live off of gibs.

Dishonored 2 used their custom Void engine, and frankly, after the fuckup that was Dishonored 2, I hope that engine stays dead until they can tweak it enough to not run horribly.
The only good iteration of idtech in a modern game is Doom.

As a player and consumer I COULDN'T GIVE LESS OF A FUCK you talentless, shit gulping dev.
I don't care if it's not a 1:1 ray traced 100% exact mirror. No one cares. Only the end result matters and if you are not capable to do even fake mirrors like dozens upon dozens of games in the 90s and early 2000s used to do then you need to fucking kill yourself you subhuman libshit cuckold numale dev.
You failed at your profession. Kill yourself. I mean it. Jump.

>>376141803
It still astonishes me that /v/ doesn't know why no devs do mirrors anymore. It's because there's no animated FP player model, only floating wavy arms. So if the player could see itself it would be a monstrosity.

Why is this done? Now that's a more interesting question than fucking mirrors.

Actually the reason is that graphics and polygon count has improved so much that if they were to put in a working mirror the game would crash from having to render everything twice.

I was irked about no reflections. Till i went up to the glass and realised it was a window. You can see (very shittly) the hallway/other parts of station through them.

Hello everyone, I'm really enjoying this game. Thanks for your time, have a great day.

>>376148780
Not only does it look like shit, it's also at that critical amount of retarded shading and coloring that make it difficult to focus on.

Would my dad enjoy Prey? He basically just likes linear shooters without many choices, just shooting things. No rpg / levelling up elements
