I haven't played the game but I tried the first few minutes. I think they are weaker quality than the last updates from AWAM. You just think high resolution means higher quality. But I can do renders like in the game you linked. I can't do render like in AWAM.This game right here (though abandoned) has much higher quality renders.
I think even in 10 years, this would already be farm from the norm. I imagine AI will progress so much we will get fully realistic images, hard to distinguish from real life photos. But when you put it in these terms we can only laugh at the fact we kind of know and expect this game to still be in development 20-30 years from now because of the slow pace.One of the many problems is that what now is 5 stars renders in 10 years will be 4 stars at best,maytbe even less.
In 20 years - below average and in 30 years-just auful.
So he have to make a remake again and again.Like he is doing now with the renders from 2017.
I said it before and I'll say it again, I think L&P is working full time on this, as much as he can, that's not the problem. The problem is, he needs help, if he is to get the updates faster and he won't get any probably because he wants to keep all the money.
