Kingdom Hearts 3:

Unbelievable how amazing this looks.

How has no movie surpassed Kingdom Hearts 3 in terms of cg yet?

It is ABSURD how well they nailed the Toy Story world. As someone who was waiting for this movie to be included in a KH game for over a decade this is the BEST.

valkillmore · Jul 17, 2017

Blown away

minameissteve · Jul 17, 2017

Isn't that third shot from Toy Story 2?

Wait till you see the water in the Moana level of KH4

GenericBadGuy · Jul 17, 2017

Wow I'm seriously impressed. Also impressed at how well TS1 seems to have aged.

Based Calla · Jul 17, 2017

This world convinced me that the engine change was worth it. So good.

Dremorak · Jul 17, 2017

This whole idea has befuddled me for years. We have had ingame graphics that far surpass toy story for a very long time.

Andy's dad died for this, but also polio.

GinoFelino · Jul 17, 2017

Holy shit

Peff · Jul 17, 2017

There's a Toy Story 2 shot in the KHIII section and one of the actual game shots is super compressed.

EDIT:

Yeah that wasn't in the trailer :/ op, what's up?

civilstrife · Jul 17, 2017

I dunno. They look kind of plasticky to me.

nkarafo · Jul 17, 2017

Impressive but the lighting still isn't as good.

KZXcellent · Jul 17, 2017

Looks even better on the uncompressed trailer (from S-E's press site)

minameissteve · Jul 17, 2017

Glad to see that the plastic, doll-like look of the engine's character models benefitted some of the characters.

Added to OP, thanks!

sanstesy · Jul 17, 2017

It's gorgeous but no, still not Toy Story level graphics. You can clearly see the polygons on Woody around the ears and especially lightning in small spots is not up to par.

WonderzL · Jul 17, 2017

Really incredible. Also let's give it to Pixar that made such an amazing looking cg movie in 1995

BocoDragon · Jul 17, 2017

Let's be honest, when people starting throwing around this "Toy Story graphics" thing, all they meant was relatively high poly counts beyond PS1-level, that would allow you to have realistic characters who could emote through facial animation, etc.

We were there by FFX.

There is no way those shots aren't downsampled.

Ridley327 · Jul 17, 2017

It's still not as high in polygon count (Buzz in close-up gives that away), but it's still insane how well they reproduced those visuals for us to have this conversation seriously. It's very impressive how close we're at now.

Gentleman Jack · Jul 17, 2017

It's pretty but the lighting doesn't quite look the same.

The anti-aliasing looks so good, though!

Blobbers · Jul 17, 2017

now how long do we have to wait for a game that'll surpass Moana?

Jashobeam · Jul 17, 2017

only big difference to me based on those screen comparisons are the use of depth of field in KH3 screens compared to Toy Story screens. The character models are spot on though.

I captured them from the YouTube trailer.

HotHamBoy · Jul 17, 2017

I actually prefer the lightning in the game to Toy Story 1. It's closer to Toy Story 3 and it looks great.

nkarafo · Jul 17, 2017

Yeah, it's both polygons and lighting. But overall, pretty close.

Same. Looks really appealing.

Ahasverus · Jul 17, 2017

To know that's Unreal Engine 4.

Devs, stop using that shit of an engine called Unity and start using this stellar piece of software.

In which case, there is no way that scene from the game wasn't downsampled. You can see the tiny-ass stair stepping on the transparency of Buzz's helmet.

Sn4ke_911 · Jul 17, 2017

"WE" DID IT

Orayn · Jul 17, 2017

Unreal 4 is particularly well suited to Toy Story due to PBR.

NoctisVsStar · Jul 17, 2017

I believe the KH team got help from Pixar btw.

George Oscar Bluth II · Jul 17, 2017

I dunno, they look too "matte" to me. In the films, characters like Woody had a bit of a glossy look to them to show they're made of plastic and I can't really say Kingdom Hearts does the same.

LelouchZero · Jul 17, 2017

The gameplay and visuals look fantastic in Kingdom Hearts 3, I can't wait to play it!

I don't remember that low poly ear on Toy Story movies...

Thats because TS1 was breaking ground in terms of 3d lighting, every cg movie after had better lighting. The reason why they did a movie about toys is because toys are plastic hard surfaces and easier to get away with all sorts of things.

I suspect that is an artistic choice to prevent overly sharp speculars, which would show strong aliasing under certain conditions. Also, like others here, I also prefer the "look" to the original pixar films.

Come on now, Unity is mostly used by indie studios with low budgets, and small teams, sometimes just 1 person. In that regard its a fantastic engine for them to use to make their ideas become reality. They work with the tools they can afford and make the best of it.

I do agree that big studios have no business using Unity though, and I'm pretty sure none of them do, only example I can think of is Super Bomberman R for the Switch.

These.... These are bullshots lmao.

That level of AA is impossible.

Or call it bull-video. That fidelity is not happening on an X1 or PS4.

Irishonion · Jul 17, 2017

Sora's costume for that world is amazing.

Yoshimitsu126 · Jul 17, 2017

Wow looks amazing! Can't wait to see more!

As long as we waited to surpass toy story 1, 22 years.
