I really wonder why isn't every Game Studio already using JALI for automated facial animations in video-games? Cyberpunk 2077 has top-tier facial animations, so good in fact that I personally thought those were mocapped.

It should be illegal to have this level of motion capture and some of the worst facial animations in the same video game

Assassins Creed: Black Flag Resynced will be a huge let down for me if Ubisoft did not take any steps to improve these facial animations. I really hope that they are using motion-captured cutscenes this time around.

These facial animations in Fable are looking really rough if I'm honest. The level of fidelity in the faces themselves is impressive but the NPCs are lacking facial expressions and seem very stiff. Really hoping that by the time the game comes out, the devs manage to fix them

You can't compare Cyberpunk 2077 launch to GTA 6 and here's exactly why Cyberpunk 2077 was the CDPR's first installment to feature a futuristic city with tons of NPCs and fast moving cars, something which was never done before on Witcher games. The gameplay video from Cyberpunk 2077 shown off in 2019 had a clear text showing "work in progress - does not represent the final look of the game" After the launch disaster of Cyberpunk 2077, Marcin Iwiński also explained that the reason the game had so many bugs is that the game was designed for PC first in mind, then scaled down to consoles that still had a hard drive (PS4 and Xbox One) an extremely difficult task on its own, combined with the fact that the game development progress took a major hit during the pandemic. Rockstar Games on the other hand has a much different engine and experience working on large scale open world game filled with tons of NPCs and fast moving cars, including the fact that they're developing this game for current gen consoles first, then scaling it up for a PC release not vice versa. Are we guys suddenly forgetting the fact that Rockstar Games managed to get GTA V running on a PS3 console which had 256mb of VRAM and 256mb of RAM at that time? The reason Rockstar Games has shown zero gameplay of GTA 6 is because historically they save the gameplay showcase before the game launches, GTA 6 Trailer 2 came out in 2025 and all footage for that Trailer was captured on a base PS5 with a mix of gameplay and cutscenes. They'll obviously show off more gameplay on August 27th, but comparing Cyberpunk 2077 to GTA 6 isn't exactly fair for both companies. On one hand, it was CDPR's first time making that kind of genre of a game and on the other hand, it isn't Rockstar Games first time making a Grand Theft Auto game.

Bro I refuse to believe these NPC interactions in Witcher 4 are real after watching that Cyberpunk 2077 E3 Demo. I know this is UE5 and not RED Engine but it looks too good to be true, that's why I won't get myself too excited until the Game comes out. If CDPR delivers this as promised, Witcher 4 and future Games like Cyberpunk 2 are going to be absolutely incredible.

Former Rockstar developer Mike York talks about how he feels the range of facial animations in the GTA 6 extended look seems a bit limited. He specifically mentions that he feels a lot of Jason’s facial animations are a bit flat and stale. As far as faces go, this is without a doubt the best I have ever seen in a video game. And I’d never really thought about it until watching Mike’s video. Do you think he has a point and how do you feel about the facial animations?

For the facial animations in my game, I use a technique that yields results similar to L.A. Noire. To keep it simple: I first generate a facial animation video using AI like LTX 2. Then, I create a video depth map from that animation and project it onto a face mask. Using vertex displacement, the depth map dynamically deforms the face as the character speaks. The result looks good in standalone VR. I actually created this workflow long time ago:

The fact that you can literally cancel the whole Phantom Liberty expansion in Cyberpunk 2077 with this one dialogue option is hilarious🤣

I bet that Rockstar Games did motion-capture for dogs too when making Red Dead Redemption 2. The animations look so natural even the tail wagging!

Here's a direct comparison between native TAA VS DLSS 4.5 VS FSR 4 Redstone in Cyberpunk 2077. For this comparison I've used the same in-game save file, game settings and the latest drivers on both machines. The first clip shows Cyberpunk 2077 running at 1080p using native TAA. The second clip shows the game rendered at 1080p then using DLSS 4.5 preset M to upscale it to 4k Third clip shows the game rendered at 1080p then using FSR 4 Redstone to upscale it to 4k

thought RE9 gun finishers were like RE6 quick shots at first so i got confused lol now that i get it, it's worth slowing down for those sick animations

The fact that this whole cutscene in Cyberpunk 2077 is rendered in-game instead of being pre-rendered shows how Goated the REDengine 4 truly was in some scenarios like these. Loading assets and switching cutscenes at such a fast rate is incredible and all of this worked seamlessly. CD Projekt Red announced that they will be switching to UE5 in 2022 which has me worried, I really hope they optimize this new engine as much as possible for future titles, especially Cyberpunk 2 which will require loading assets at a fast rate while maintaining a stable framerate without shuttering issues in such a dense city filled with NPCs.

Cyberpunk 2077 1.0 launch will forever be hilarious for having some of the funniest bugs I've seen in a video-game, like magically healing this NPC in a wheelchair by pointing a gun at him.

The fact that CDPR willingly showed this Witcher 4 tech demo as an Unreal Engine 5 showcase means they have already set the expectations accordingly for Witcher 4. If Witcher 4 doesn't look like this or play like this, it will be the same situation of overpromising that Cyberpunk 2077 had and I feel like there's going to be some backlash. It is a "Technical Representation - Not Actual Gameplay" but I struggle to understand what was the point of flexing the engine if the final product wont be identical to this, other than hyping the game up? Witcher 4 is still in development, so of course I expect changes that are visual, map changes, animations and character models, otherwise Witcher 4 should incorporate all the features they showed in this demo like: >multi character motion matching >muscle deformation >high foliage density >realistic NPC crowds >a responsive world >good performance (no UE5 stutters) >seamless NPC interactions and cutscenes I'd be disappointed in CDPR if these features didn't make it to the final product because it would seem that they haven't learned their lesson after Cyberpunk 2077.
