I think Starfield has the best lighting I have ever seen without ray tracing. The reflections in puddles of water on Neon are so good.
Better than Cyberpunk without RT? Note, I haven’t played both games, just a question
I haven't played Cyberpunk yet, so I can't say.
Really? I'll have to look at the puddles when I get there; I was disappointed to see that mirrors don't work.
Keywords: without raytracing
You can do mirrors without raytracing by using a second camera, which is also how Portal does the seeing-through-portals trick.
I found it the worst.
It felt like everyone was sitting under their own personal spotlight. And it’s so harsh on the eyes.
I was on an icy moon today orbiting an orange gas giant that had full sun. The colour of the planet was reflected in the dark blue ice - it was stunning!
The lighting I. Star citizen is pretty epic
