@@cultofhampter I more imagined you'd be able to type in a scene type like "mossy forest" and it would automatically generate photo realistic 3d models and textures of what you wanted on a specified base(like hills) and size.
Graphics can be even more realistic with V-ray for example. But it was almost impossible to make it real-time but Nvidia RTX changed that and now nanite in a sense mastered it.
It is amazing to think graphics went from pixelated bodies with JPEG faces in the 90s to almost photorealistic real-life imagery within our games today. Things do evolve given hard work and innovation.
It is also bad because games in the future will require ridiculous PC system requirements. Those nit picky details and beautification are unnecessary and just put demand to run the game decently.
@@Zeerich-yx9po Yeah but some are kind of difficult to tell if they are real or not if we take a picture lol ig in the future we'll have even more realistic graphics
@@Zeerich-yx9po If you had a high-end PC made in 2013 then no way your phone is better. I built my PC in 2014 by buying decent parts but with budget in mind so not high end at all. The only thing i changed was the GPU by throwing a 1050Ti(which was a low end card on release) in it 3 years later. It can still play better looking games than my smartphone. Sure the strongest Smartphone i have has an 860 Snapdragon inside and not the latest Gen 1 or whatever but it is still quite a powerful chip even compared to most SOC's in 2022.
UE5 is crazy because graphics kind of plateaued there for a while and I really thought that we were kind of beyond getting excited about them. Then Epic just came out and said "Polygons don't matter anymore, please use our free library of photo-realistic objects. And we have real-time software-ray-traced global illumination." It's such a stupendous leap forward.
but your game still has to be incredibly optimized or it will run like crap. just because folks "think" they can make a game doesn't mean they will ever make a good game. there is sooooooo much more to a "good" game than meets the eye. Most folks don't know ANYTHING about optimizing and when they figure it out, they are to far into their game to fix it.
you're spot on, there was not a ton getting me pumped for ps5/xsx until I saw these latest tech demos. Simply putting more polygons on the screen stopped making games look better in like 2014...
@@ncshuriken Nah, it's stupendous. Nanite is so impressive that It sounds like fictional technology a writer came up with to hand-waive away photo-realistic graphics. People have run tests and it just chews through multiple BILLIONS of polygons. And Lumen renders like an entire technical discipline obsolete. Instead of screwing with the myriad ways games used to fake lighting, often static at that, it's just drag-and-drop global illumination. No lightmaps, no builds, no special GPUs necessary. It's a problem we thought would be solved by hardware in ten years, and they solved it with software today. Again, if a writer came up with it I'd call it lazy and unrealistic.
@@ncshuriken Yeah, that's about the size of it. When they announced it I thought they were basically lying, but then it came out and.. it just worked, just like that. The only hitch left is that building with photo-realistic assets tends to blow out a projects install size. The Matrix demo they put out is like 100gb, for example.

Unreal Tournament was an insanely fun game. The mechanics still hold up today, many of the maps are flawless, and several of the weapons are unmatched even in modern games.
There are two kinds of people in this world. Those who played "Facing Worlds" in the original Unreal Tournament, and those who did not. They have no idea what they missed, and that is probably for the best.
@@TheJotun99 I won a juicy Geforce2 MX in a UT99 tournament in my home country around year 2000. Damn, those were the days. What was the map that had low gravity and three towers called? That one was in the finale.
Deus Ex wasn't 1995. It actually came out in the year 2000. It was also a beast to run on low or midrange hardware, as the Unreal engine didn't have good tools for culling hidden surfaces.
I used to play Unreal Tournament 2004 (UT2K4) loads, mainly because I loved how moddable the game was. You could get mods that made spent brass eject from the weapons and bullet holes and impact/scorch marks on the landscape permanent (if your PC could handle that). Unreal Engine has always been ahead of it's time.
What about all the BOTS and maps and skins? Had sooo many skins and new models and was playing the game solo with bots. Damn those bots were so advanced, you could configure each bot individually, how smart they were and what not.
Unreal Engine not only left a mark on my childhood becase its games, but it's the engine that introduced me to game development and programming thanks to UnrealC and UDK
The original Unreal was such a big part of my 20s. I spent hours and hours playing Unreal and UT. Also, it’s pronounced “Day-oos Ex”, not “Do Sex.” It’s Latin.
One small thing that is wrong in the video, Silicon Knight's issue wasn't that the "Epic Games failed to provide a working game engine", but that "Epic Games failed to provide assistance in the development of the game engine." The long short story of the whole thing is that SK had some goals and asked EG if the Unreal Engine 3 could reach those goal. EG said "maybe, but not now" and SK basically made a partnership deal with EG to develop the Unreal Engine to meet their needs. At first, things were fine, but at some point EG started to focus all their effort on their Gears of War project and any inquiries from SK could were taking more and more time to get answered (at the late stage, as much as 4 months without any answers). Now, some people who don't understand the development of game engine could argue that it was Silicon Knight's fault to not consider that the Unreal Engine wasn't ready to meet their need, but the thing is that Silicon Knight ended up creating tools for the Unreal Engine that was doing just the thing, but had to access and modify some of the "bad" codes in the Unreal Engine 3 and fixing many of its internal issues. Even without the assistance of Epic Games, Silicon Knight was still moving forward, but just at a much slower speed while hemorrhaging funds like crazy. During the limited exchanged between EG and SK, EG learned of the fixes created by SK and wanted them to give it to them because, guess what, those issues were also existing in their Gears of War. SK refused telling EG to go "f**k themselves because they never helped in that"and that's where the thing started to explode. EG pulled out the contract that made it so that SK was supposed to give its share of development in the engine and that's when SK sued Epic. Because of how basically none of the juries understood what SK was trying to achieve and what went wrong, they lost the trial, but that exposed that SK modified the Unreal Engine's core code which EG used for its Copyright infringement. The fact that SK sued EG and, in the legal public documents, it explained things that was supposed to be secret between EG and SK, EG also sued for Misappropriation of Trade Secrets. (Note: the Misappropriation of Trade Secrets wouldn't have been possible if SK had won. It's only because SK lost that this was validated.) The Breach of Contract is basically because, as I previously wrote, SK said "f**k you" to EG when EG left them mostly on their own and then asked them for the result of their work. When Silicon Knight lost, it not only had to pay Epic Games the money, but also basically give them everything they have done on the Unreal Engine. One of those work was the tool that Silicon Knight made by modifying the Kismet tool in the Unreal Engine so that it could be used by 3D artists who had no knowledge in coding. Most of those things made by Silicon Knight ended up being part of the core changes done in the Unreal Engine 4 which, yes, include the Blueprint system.
I'd like to mention the super fun custom maps that were in unreal tournament 2004, the racing, parkour maps and just joining other players in player built maps felt so ahead of its time
At this point someone with enough time and dedication can make a full 90 min movie into Unreal Engine 5 without needing any actor and the whole world can easily be tricked is real life 🥰 Technology, both software and hardware, has reached insane levels of realism
People are doing it already, in fact, these advancements have worried Hollywood artists that it could be possible that producers can simply hire artists to create real life like characters, create a movie and just hire VAs at cheap cost and call it a day.
Not really. You can still make out when a human isn't real very easily. Environments can trick you but no humans and animals. They need major development for the Unreal engine to make that possible but i don't thing it will happen with 6 ether. Maybe with Unreal Engine 7.
When everybody become able to create art using GUI (regardless of programming knowhow), IA image generation and other means, it will be the true rise of the Internet. Brands will start losing ground to regular people in their homes, and collaborative projects not meddled by any high-ups worried about formulaic plots and the market. It will be amazing! It has already happened in music, you can be an incredible producer at home without that great of an equipment.
4:34 why is it that none of the RUclipsrs ever seem to do their research about how to pronounce things? it's not "DOOS EX" it's "DAY-US EX". as in Deus Ex Machina, which the game's name comes from. i've seen this on multiple RUclipsrs' videos, including GameRanx. it's like, they don't even try. i realize you guys put out a ton of content, but come on, QUALITY over QUANTITY, guys...
You're failling to mention that Digital Extremes and Legend Entertainment were also involved in creating Unreal, Unreal Gold, Unreal Tournament, Unreal Tournament 2003, Unreal 2 and Unreal Tournament 2004. You also failed to mention Unreal Tournament 4 in 2014 which was probably the first game ever to use Unreal engine 4.
I remember, I think, playing this game. I saved up money for a VoodooFX card, and my brother bought one too, so we had an "SLI" configuration :) We were one of the first ones adopting the things. I showed it to a neighbour of ours for a few. 3 minutes later, he boought 2 of them at once after staring with his mouth open XD.
UT99 was easily the best game ever made especially if you consider the still live and kicking community and the possibility to mod basically everything. UT truly is the mother of a thousand Goats. Greetings from VRN|Shaman
Once, many years ago, there was a young and very unhappy gamer. 'These graphics', he used to say, 'are crap. I refuse to die in peace until graphics are soo good that you can't tell them from reality.' Thirty-and-a-few years later, seeing this video made him very happy, but also a bit concerned. He now hopes that he might be able to talk the Grim Reaper into playing a few of these fotorealistic games with him before the end. Who knows, Death might appreciate a little diversion from all that chess playing.
Not Deuce Ex.. It is Deus Ex.. Pronounced Day-us-Ex lol... It is a Latin term that means "God from the machine"... I use to make the same mistake😂 Awesome video!.. This was very nostalgic☺️
Thank you Tim Sweeney and team for the selfless stance in improving the gaming community, and more! I enjoy the luxury of playing high end games and watching incredible movies because of you. Legends!
Amazing video. Thank you. I love Unreal Engine so much. But i always thought Unreal Engine 3 had the most games. So it was surprising to me to learn that Unreal Engine 4 has more than 400 games.
I remember how amazed I was playing Wolfenstein 3D from a single 1.4 MB floppy disc. That wasn't the Unreal engine, but it still shows how far we've come, so quickly!
The Unreal Engine marketplace was a good idea that seems to fall flat after seeing the same assets being used in game after game.. I like the idea as a artist my self being able to make money on art that's created.. But it really has made many games copy and paste.
I enjoyed many hours creating Unreal Tournament maps back around 2002 with the editor that came with the game. I loved it so much because it was lightweight enough to run on my system at the time. Most maps are under 1MB, my largest one coming in at around 15MB. A few of the ones I uploaded and shared with other players are named: DM-Solar System, DM-One Bullet Left, DM-Eyrie Caserne, DM-Cephalidome, CTF-Nephthys' Natatarium, and DM-Algolagnia. I think they can still be downloaded to this day hahaha
people in the 90s: "wow, these graphics look real" If I had a time machine, I would show UE 5 graphics to 90s people. I'm curious about their reaction. Lol
I'd show them doom and gravity rush. I think any modern game would impress them, but the movement in those games would really freak them out. Infamous too
I remember how in the 00s, it felt like every other game was either using UE or id Tech. They had slightly differing features (for example those shiny surfaces introduced in Quake 3 Arena), some games didn't bother replacing the built-in UI for settings, and UE somehow always felt smoother. A couple of times a game using a new version of UE would surprise me with something I never thought my hardware could do.
till this date the original 1998 Unreal game is one of my most favorite game ever, all original 39 maps were amazing, people say GTA 3 revolutionized 3D gaming, but Unreal 1998 did with it open world atmosphere and diverse maps. The first time I stepped out of the crashed Vortex spacecraft to the beautiful Nyleve's Fall map, the song, the waterfall, the enemies, the weapons, perfection. I preferred it over Unreal Tournament 1999 which was mostly about death matching, Unreal monsters were ore fun to fight. Its a shame that Unreal 1998 never got a remake on modern Unreal engines....
Ah yes Unreal Tournament. Memories... Still the best shooter in history and ever. And I hate that Epic cancelled UT4 bc of Fortnite. All Fortnite kiddies dont know what UT even is and they dont know how good the games are. They are just playing that garbage. Yes Fortnite is garbage. You cant change my mind.
UE5 is going be amazing, at least with dev and teams who are talent / skill enough to take advanced of UE5 features. Then there lazy devs like studio wildcard (Ark Survival) I can’t wait too see what both indie dev and AAA studios can do with UE5. There few games like Ark survival and Conan Exiles are both using UE 4, version 4.15. Which is so old like 2015/16. Both games “badly” need ported to UE5. To say it is not possible is bullshit. I was ex moderator (tech help guy)/server admin and beta tester for small indie dev team using UE4. They (as June/2022) are using UE 4.26. They are indie devs. Not huge large studio like wildcard for ark. Lol. I find funny indie dev team can upgrade their game engine but wildcard and Conan dev can’t. Lazy devs. Teams like this shouldn’t be supported imo. They in for for greedy money. Do as cheap as possible. Not quality and fun gaming experience. I hope other indie devs and studio make UE5 look amazing.
i would love to see rocksteady studio pushing UE5 to it's limit with their upcoming suicide squad just like what they did with batman arkham knight they pushed UE3 to it's absolute limit and the game's graphic still aged really well compare to nowdays games
Free software licenses and development are the backbone of the internet to this day. Kudos to all people supporting these leaps forward in technology, sharing is the future

4:34 why is it that none of the RUclipsrs ever seem to do their research about how to pronounce things?
it's not "DOOS EX" it's "DAY-US EX". as in Deus Ex Machina, which the game's name comes from.
i've seen this on multiple RUclipsrs' videos, including GameRanx. it's like, they don't even try. i realize you guys put out a ton of content, but come on, QUALITY over QUANTITY, guys...
You're failling to mention that Digital Extremes and Legend Entertainment were also involved in creating Unreal, Unreal Gold, Unreal Tournament, Unreal Tournament 2003, Unreal 2 and Unreal Tournament 2004.
You also failed to mention Unreal Tournament 4 in 2014 which was probably the first game ever to use Unreal engine 4.
Unreal Engine 5 looks awesome 👏👏
.. and all this great graphics in 1080p low compression quality we had in 2005 already.. you own mind blowing tech Flatlife!
on board since UT99 - best classic FPS as for me. Never knew back in 2000s', that this engine will make it that far and even be on the top!
As a PC gamer and avid film viewer, this is really neat to learn about. Very cool that it's being used for TV shows also
The way this dude ends his sentences on a high note drives me crazy 😂
I watched your video for the first time and I loved it. Good job! The commentary was not too much, and it was all in place. :)
I remember, I think, playing this game. I saved up money for a VoodooFX card, and my brother bought one too, so we had an "SLI" configuration :) We were one of the first ones adopting the things. I showed it to a neighbour of ours for a few. 3 minutes later, he boought 2 of them at once after staring with his mouth open XD.
I like your source captions. Keep up the good work.
Wow you really put so much time and effort in this video! You deserves more subs
LOL what are you talking about? He didn't do squat
I remember playing Unreal Tournament in 2002 with my son who was four at the time, lol. It was so good. He still has the game on his bookshelf.
UT99 was easily the best game ever made especially if you consider the still live and kicking community and the possibility to mod basically everything. UT truly is the mother of a thousand Goats.
Greetings from VRN|Shaman
Make more BT maps. From 10 months in the future.
this video was like a trip going down memory lane. so many fun times with these games
Do the evolution of Aston Martin
Once, many years ago, there was a young and very unhappy gamer. 'These graphics', he used to say, 'are crap. I refuse to die in peace until graphics are soo good that you can't tell them from reality.' Thirty-and-a-few years later, seeing this video made him very happy, but also a bit concerned.
He now hopes that he might be able to talk the Grim Reaper into playing a few of these fotorealistic games with him before the end.
Who knows, Death might appreciate a little diversion from all that chess playing.
4:30 Ah yes. Juice Ex. What a game that was 👀
Not Deuce Ex.. It is Deus Ex.. Pronounced Day-us-Ex lol... It is a Latin term that means "God from the machine"... I use to make the same mistake😂
Awesome video!.. This was very nostalgic☺️
Do the evolution of Aston Martin next please I have been asking for a long time
17:00 using the Gears of War soundtrack garnered my respect!!!
Thank you Tim Sweeney and team for the selfless stance in improving the gaming community, and more! I enjoy the luxury of playing high end games and watching incredible movies because of you. Legends!
Here here. To think we'd be born during this timeline in humanity with the technology we have is INSANE. THe people at Epic are Hero's.
Amazing video, i enjoyed it throughly, thank you.
Dooce Ex was a good game tbh.
I always loved Deuce X, what a game. Just kidding. Great video! :)
Evolution of Aston Martin and maybe Bentley some other time?
Amazing video. Thank you. I love Unreal Engine so much. But i always thought Unreal Engine 3 had the most games. So it was surprising to me to learn that Unreal Engine 4 has more than 400 games.
I remember how amazed I was playing Wolfenstein 3D from a single 1.4 MB floppy disc. That wasn't the Unreal engine, but it still shows how far we've come, so quickly!
The Unreal Engine marketplace was a good idea that seems to fall flat after seeing the same assets being used in game after game.. I like the idea as a artist my self being able to make money on art that's created.. But it really has made many games copy and paste.
I enjoyed many hours creating Unreal Tournament maps back around 2002 with the editor that came with the game. I loved it so much because it was lightweight enough to run on my system at the time. Most maps are under 1MB, my largest one coming in at around 15MB. A few of the ones I uploaded and shared with other players are named: DM-Solar System, DM-One Bullet Left, DM-Eyrie Caserne, DM-Cephalidome, CTF-Nephthys' Natatarium, and DM-Algolagnia. I think they can still be downloaded to this day hahaha
What an epic Engine!
You could almost say its an EPIC GAMES engine
the pun 😩😩
Yeah, it's almost unreal.
Your video quality has improved quite a lot!. I love the advancements epic games is making with unreal engine!.
Petition for evolution of Unity

Unreal engine 6 : “now you can manipulate space time”
Lmfao😭😭😭😭💀💀💀💀💀💀💀
Deuce X was a great game.
Deus Ex was even ......................... better!
The evolution of Unreal engine is really Unreal
Deus Ex is not from 1995
He never said it was, he just said when they made unreal engine 1 public those games were made
The Unreal 1 and 2 engine was just epic. Just love games like Unreal, UT, Deus Ex, Wheel of Time and others based on it..
Cool
I'm glad i found this Engine, I love Unreal Engine it's pretty fun to use :)
Unreal 700 is gonna be great, you can make the whole entire Omniverse.
people in the 90s:
"wow, these graphics look real"
If I had a time machine, I would show UE 5 graphics to 90s people. I'm curious about their reaction. Lol
I'd show them doom and gravity rush. I think any modern game would impress them, but the movement in those games would really freak them out. Infamous too
I remember how in the 00s, it felt like every other game was either using UE or id Tech. They had slightly differing features (for example those shiny surfaces introduced in Quake 3 Arena), some games didn't bother replacing the built-in UI for settings, and UE somehow always felt smoother. A couple of times a game using a new version of UE would surprise me with something I never thought my hardware could do.
Lol “Deuce Ex”
Why are you doing?
I actually really like the unreal engine 1 graphics I don't know what it is but there is a cozy feeling around the textures and lighting.
"Due Sex"
Really?!
i still remember me and my dad playing unreal tournament on our 2005 pc and when he cam from his work this was the best time I had with my dad
"Doose Ex" 💀💀
That was awesome, thanks for it!
Doos Ex? Come on.
Seing it summed up like this makes it easier to picture what the next 5-10 years will look like in games and graphics
I wonder how Minecraft would be if it was made by this😢
till this date the original 1998 Unreal game is one of my most favorite game ever, all original 39 maps were amazing, people say GTA 3 revolutionized 3D gaming, but Unreal 1998 did with it open world atmosphere and diverse maps. The first time I stepped out of the crashed Vortex spacecraft to the beautiful Nyleve's Fall map, the song, the waterfall, the enemies, the weapons, perfection. I preferred it over Unreal Tournament 1999 which was mostly about death matching, Unreal monsters were ore fun to fight. Its a shame that Unreal 1998 never got a remake on modern Unreal engines....
Ah yes Unreal Tournament. Memories... Still the best shooter in history and ever. And I hate that Epic cancelled UT4 bc of Fortnite. All Fortnite kiddies dont know what UT even is and they dont know how good the games are. They are just playing that garbage.
Yes Fortnite is garbage. You cant change my mind.
This video has inspired me to keep learning programming and Unreal Engine.
UE5 is going be amazing, at least with dev and teams who are talent / skill enough to take advanced of UE5 features. Then there lazy devs like studio wildcard (Ark Survival)
I can’t wait too see what both indie dev and AAA studios can do with UE5. There few games like Ark survival and Conan Exiles are both using UE 4, version 4.15. Which is so old like 2015/16. Both games “badly” need ported to UE5. To say it is not possible is bullshit.
I was ex moderator (tech help guy)/server admin and beta tester for small indie dev team using UE4. They (as June/2022) are using UE 4.26. They are indie devs. Not huge large studio like wildcard for ark. Lol. I find funny indie dev team can upgrade their game engine but wildcard and Conan dev can’t. Lazy devs. Teams like this shouldn’t be supported imo. They in for for greedy money. Do as cheap as possible. Not quality and fun gaming experience.
I hope other indie devs and studio make UE5 look amazing.
i would love to see rocksteady studio pushing UE5 to it's limit with their upcoming suicide squad
just like what they did with batman arkham knight they pushed UE3 to it's absolute limit and the game's graphic still aged really well compare to nowdays games
I remember when Unreal first came out, there was massive talk about how beautiful the sky was. And the sky was very impressive.
I don’t like the way the narrator talks lol it’s annoying
I think its one of them ai readers. There are parts where a human would actually need to work to sound that way.
Wow, When you stress every sentence it gets sooo exhausting to listen. Nice video, but when I heard "Duuz ex" I had to laugh ;)
I lasted about five minutes before it irritated me to a stop
I remember your videos like, four years ago I watched them alot!
I played Unreal tournament1999 It was one of my favs FPS of all time. didnt realize It was their engine that dominates modern games... lol.
EXCELLENT, exactly what I was looking for, very well done and very enjoyable! thanks
Best Engine and Service for developers in History!
I love UNREAL
Free software licenses and development are the backbone of the internet to this day. Kudos to all people supporting these leaps forward in technology, sharing is the future
Unreal Tournament’s lighting still looks neat 😮
Why are you talking to me?
