They're not going to be able to do that in the short or probably even medium term, because the tech only works on high-end graphics cards and the studios need to be able to produce games for the wider market (including the players who can activate it but choose not to). By the time that level...

We don't yet know how customisable this will be when implemented by game companies into their own games. There must be some way to enforce consistency, otherwise the same character would wind up looking like different people from scene to scene, and such tools may include directions as to what...

I never managed to get into the anime because the art style just really doesn't work for me. Just something about the general character design that I can't get comfortable watching. Enjoyed the first live-action season, will be checking out the second soon.

It's not any brighter, it just has higher contrast. And if I need to have played the game to know that the better-looking image has ruined the "mood", you've picked a poor example to illustrate your point.

You're in no better position to objectively state what it looks like than I am, so drop the "wrong". I've seen more people who resemble the right-hand image than the left-hand one. Also the background in the right-hand image actually has enough contrast to discern details.

I admit I have no idea what DLSS is, but the person on the left looks like an early 2000s videogame character and the person on the right looks like a person. What's the catch?

True, but my impression of JMS from what came out through the course of the original show's airing was that he was never much of a team player, especially with this show.

Kanan took down an AT-AT with a similar leg strike in Rebels, so not really unprecedented. Maul's voice sounds off to me, almost too standard Imperial-officer posh, but it's the same voice actor as in Rebels. Maybe I need to rewatch some Clone Wars, remind myself of how he sounded back then.

"Interquel" is one I recall having been used in this context too.

In terms of actually resolving any remaining plot threads from the series and movie, a series set between the two seems doomed to failure. The only major ones left unresolved were Shepherd Book's mysterious past, which seems doubly dead and buried at this point, and the will-they-won't-they...

When I saw that one today I thought it was D&D go bang.

That is, perhaps, one of the only major aspects of the series that hasn't been seen in mass media at this point. Plenty of series have something of an arms race, but the sheer scale of going from battles between individual capital ships up to the point where throwing antimatter planets at the...

Depending upon how deep you want to get into the story. In the novels the Arisians are enacting a plan spanning millions of years intended to culminate in the creation of, essentially, their successors - beings of even greater powers than their own.

There is the sexism element, but probably the bigger issue is the pre-WW2 "eugenics yay" stuff built into the basic premise - the good-guy aliens are conducting a galactic-scale breeding programme to make the perfect beings.

Ooh, it's like walking on the sun.

I agree that a lot of them could do with simplification, but I really like their general implementation, especially the easy multiclassing. I always thought SWSE was only a few steps away from being an actual classless system - get rid of some of the class-based bonus progressions (that's...

Most of the wild variance in SWSE's math isn't down to the base d20 rolls, it's down to the weird differences in bonus progressions between different classes, and between attack bonus progression and skill bonus progression. A lot of the system's issues would be alleviated if it were reworked...

I was going to look for some other material to compare, but Googling "cyclops in movies" gets around a 95% ratio of X-Men to anything else. There was that overseer guy in the Fallout series who is basically just a normal guy with an unusual eye placement, but somehow that feels more unnatural...

And you don't really get to Winter Soldier without going through First Avenger. So much of Winter Soldier is built upon that foundation.
