What the hell is that grass made of, floor tiles? It shouldn't be reflective like that!

Have you never seen grass in the rain before?

Hardly any grass where I live, and rain only comes ocassionally.

This one also looks cool.

GTA SA might have got the worst treatment for the 3D models but I have to admit... the cars look phenomenal. They nailed the 90s style.

It's funny how before GTA Trilogy DE there were videos showcasing graphics mods and they all added reflections to everything including the grass, and people were clowning them for that. But now all of a sudden it's an ok thing since R* is doing it. Make up your mind, fanboys. Grass doesn't reflect like that.

GTA Series have posted a pretty nice comparison video, posted it in the analysis topic

[Dick Justice]

They probably decided to make the character models look so cartoony and stylised because the existing cutscene animations looked atrocious on high quality character models.

??? Most people here dont like the way tommy looks. It has nothing to do with being a kid, it just looks wrong lmfao

You understood me wrong i mean people wrote on twitter to Gypsy things like "hey Gypsy look they put you in the game" just because Tommy looks fatter in the picture and Gypsy has some more weight too those people are kids or haters not the people here that doesn't like the design from tommy

Rockstar should have made some serious screenshots to promote these games.

 

Most of the screenshots they released are really ugly. However, the trailer makes for some good shots!

You think the grass is weird? Have you ever seen a 5 o'clock shadow that's shinier than dogs balls? Looks like the whole body was dipped in epoxy resin...



And speaking of, why everything looks brand new? I never imagined his jacket would look like that... Even in GTAO we have better textures than that. It should look distressed and worn, more like this:

Honestly I think that video by GTA Series highlights even more how good these look IMO lol. Other than some character models like Tommy's and in some scenes CJ's face looks a bit odd, everything else is a huge step up. The character model in that scene with Sweet doing a driveby is pretty good IMO. The texture on the cap, etc.

First of all, grass can get reflective like that if a lot of water ends up in it, it causes deep puddles of water in the grass that are reflective. And second of all, we were making fun of these mods, because there was hundreds of puddles all over the roads and sidewalks while the sky was bright blue and sunny. On this picture it's f*cking raining

That shot kinda shows off the problems of the art style though: skin texture that goes for some sort of realism while the character itself is very stylized. He looks like a clay figure even mostly which isn't bad but doesn't really gel with the tone of the game.

yeah, that shot of sweet convinces me that a lot of the trailer and screenshots are from earlier on in development, everything in that specific screenshot looks significantly better than some others, almost like it was taken very recently

They did it because they are lazy as f*ck. This is an easy way to put less effort into the remaster and people will still eat it up

This remaster completely sh*ts on the atmosphere of the originals by making everything look plastic and shiny. GTA 3 was pretty gritty and had a dark atmosphere..now it looks like some cartoony game

Wow, just realized this meme uses the same "art style" 

edit: And even this looks more like Tommy Vercetti

Just to throw my two cents in. I don't like the appearance of the characters (Tommy, Kendl and Ken Rosenberg look terribly, making the Sims 3 characters look photo-realistically in comparison), but it's not a deal breaker for me. 

I care more about general atmosphere, since the darkness of Liberty City was one of the selling points of GTA 3 (worst place in america) and depiction of care free '80s from Vice City was taken almost straight from Miami Vice. 

I really want to see how the game will look and feel before making any assumptions about the quality of the whole product. I also wonder how much content will be changed to some more appropriate (and we already saw that some of it will be) and what will happen with the soundtrack. 

 

I will very likely try San Andreas, since it's available in Game Pass and then if I like it, I may buy myself III and VC.

For now i'am concerned only about the colour filters that affect atmosphere and character models. Everything else is fine.

If Gta trilogy Sells good there is a high chance we might getting GTA IV & RedDeadRedemption 1 Remastered 

[Americana]

Oh, look - suddenly everybody loves dark and gloomy atmosphere of Grand Theft Auto III.

Why would you need a remaster of GTA IV? It works fine on modern software, unlike GTA trilogy. Also works great on Xbox One/X with backwards compatibility.

This is because they still use csplay and player models in GTA Vice City and GTA SA too. GTA III just replaced the head of the ingame model which has advanced bones for mouth, eyes etc. The cutscene characters are more hi poly than the ingame model and look more detailed. I don't think they used different builds to create this trailer if they have actually been working on it since 2019. 

 

Sorry for the bad comparison, I couldn't find a good DFF viewer.

It really doesn't. It breaks when it's played at 60fps on console and the PC version remains a giant technical mess.

 

One of the big reasons behind remasters though, and why i expect we'll see RDR1 and probably IV at some point both get remastered, is to make a "definitive" edition that's more future proof platform wise. The last few years the games industry has made some good leaps with proper BC support and all that jazz, so it's now a good time for publishers to sort out their back catalogue (which is a good long term earner for these publishers) and ready it up for the next 10-20 years.

 

People just wanna buy a game, install it and go, but with older games made for now very out dated hardware it's not always that simple.
