THis was rendered using Nvidia technology
within a decade games will look this good, before that even, five years at the least.
and the real fucked up thing is that in a decade they'll be able to render graphics like this in virtual reality

"photoreal rendering" has been a thing for a long time. It's the realtime part that's impressive, if real. Which I'll believe when I see it in an actual application and not a tech demo

We will probably have this sooner than you think in 2D form thanks to VR.
HMDs require a ton of processing power, the computer has to render the environment to two separate images in realtime at resolutions of 1280 x 1440 per eye in 90fps + all the fancy graphics.
With that said Nvidia and AMD will work their asses off to create GPUs capable of rendering graphics on par with Star Citizen for VR, if you take that kind of processing capability I don't see why you couldn't render the OP in realtime at at least 30fps within three to five years.

Using a 1080 GPU for anything other than cryptocoin mining is heresy.

Waiting for when AI will be able to mathematically calculate and self-create the most enjoy games possible with virtually no human input. Like the Animu thing, but with entire video games.

Yeah I saw this earlier today. Cool shit. So why do the characters in games still look like some cell shaded dogshit from a Telltale point n click adventure?

I knew it was computer generated because the car didn't have a number plate.
