The Final Quixel Mixer Release... Ever
Epic Games have just made it official... Quixel Mixer is dead. Instead of just letting it go though, they released one final free version (for Windows and Mac) available as an offline application... an unsupported application. Fortunately Quixel Mixer…

The AI voiceovers are abominable. The writing of their conversation adds up to it (also AI?) Like, WTF is that?!

We built a studio, we made a game, and I'm really proud of both. Before we close the doors at Midsummer Studios I'd like to share a glimpse of Burbank, the game we poured our hearts into.
It's like "Life Sims + The Truman Show," but it's more than that.…

Laura (a very experienced producer) discussing that if your whole team, your friends, and industry folks in your office are all excited and see the game as a future hit... it's a bad sign:
- Every good game was loved AND hated
- There have to be brawls in the team
- If it's all whimsical and cheerful, you're fucked

Sometimes I discover old shots made with Xiaomi Mi5 and it was unmatched. Look at this tiny piece of the image (you can see the zoom on the right). All details are preserved, the materials are correctly rendered, and no sharpening or odd color representation…

And to continue "characters art direction" discussion, here's the notable example:
This is Elex II and Elex. The wife of the main character looks so strikingly different in the second one (above) and their overall human rendering and modelling system was simply the worst part of the whole sequel.
The original was way too stylized, but it definitely stood out. Their skin shader was so much better and consistent. The new one is glossy, like they are all made of plastic.
Also, both games are one of a kind RPGs with unmatched freedom. You can pick factions to only become a spy inside for a totally different faction or join the underground thieves guild (you can easily miss). A lot of dialogues depend on your current squad, like my ex-wife forced a guard to give me back the bribe TWICE, since she's his boss.
