    I think one of the things these animators should pay more attention too is the involuntary human movement. Like the shoulders moving, lip quivers, tiny head movements. That’s what made the real time puppet head movement seem so much more realistic and less… scripted

      @@user-nz2qh1qn4e an iphone is only good in capturing video right? Big companies use infrared or laser sensors mounted on your head, to capture all of your movements. Obviously head and shoulder movements can be adjusted by some animators and the technology will be applied to other parts too, but being able to capture that amount of detail in someone's face is pretty impressive. If you have millions to invest in a game (as many productors do) it's going to be easier to make it look more natural.

    The original Hellblade was one of the most incredible experiences in VR. It was like going on a journey with Senua as a companion, and it made it very intense with the incredible camera work and effects-there's a video on youtube of how they designed the camera for VR, and they took great care to get it right. There's something about being in VR when suddenly you're faced with a huge guy who clearly aims to kill you if you don't fight. It's so much more intense than playing it on a monitor. Shame it doesn't seem we'll get VR for this second chapter.

I was mind blown by Dreamcast when it came out at such a time where PS1 and N64 had a choke hold on the market, I seriously thought it was going to be the next big thing and sega has won, that they are going to make a Dreamcast 2 in the next 10 years and its going to have graphics that look just as real as me lol.

      I think you're judging it on the gameplay part on the video's 3rd timeline. That's from the previous game, if you see it from the presentation made to the audience or the trailer for the next game, it's perfect. And even on the presentation, you can see that the face expressions that look kinda odd aren't from demos that have the same detail levels as the one made on the 2nd timeline, I believe they only showed the less detailed ones so that we could see that the real-time face motion capture works even with less detailed avatars.

      Well, you're forgetting to take into account that all of this was processed in presence of the audience, under 8 minutes total. Saving a whole lot of time and effort to animators, by giving them a 8/10 base to work with to refine and improve on finer details as the one you just mentioned. Always try to keep in mind that animation takes weeks, sometimes months, here you had them done while you prepared yourself an awesome sandwich in the kitchen.

    There's still an aspect of facial expression which seems unique to the face and may not always translate well to other faces. Your actor managed to communicate a subtextual expression which made the anger seem 'cute' and provocative rather than threatening but, in the initial character, the subtextual expression was lost and the angry expression communicated something quite different from the original and in fact from a few of the other characters in the line-up. A lot of subtext in facial expression revolves around micro-expressions and I'm not sure if it was that which didn't translate so well or maybe there's a couple rigging points which need to either calibrate differently to different resting positions on different faces or maybe they're just missing...?

I hope Senua's Saga tells a great story, too.

      Isn’t that why there’s contracts that say they can only use the likeness/performance for one specific project? Theres even usually a release form if you’re doing an interview or whatever? Pretty sure there’s models who have signed away their likeness for multiple projects (e.g. Dark Pictures anthology games that reuse models to keep costs down). They usually do have a say in how much they own their likeness and the benefits they get (profit percent, clear cut wage/payment or whatever) when they go to sign a contract

    I think the capture looks off because the actor is also off, she's overacting the face expressions. If she acted more naturally it would look better. Also, her javelin throw animations physics looked lackluster, but maybe it's her lackluster way of throwing, with no real oomph at the last moment. And the way the move and run in a crouched way is also weird, but probably some weird technique they learned in acting course..
