Review killzone shadow fall6/13/2023 ![]() ![]() This is next-gen baby - and don’t you forget it. The draw distance for models is breathtaking. The first time you see daylight and the expansive vistas of Vekta your jaw genuinely drops. ![]() Perhaps on purpose, to give you the wow factor early doors, some of the most incredible visuals occur within the first hour of playing. Truly next-genĪll the levels in Killzone: Shadow Fall look amazing, and the open air ones particularly so. On the flip side, everything else looks simply stunning. Being blinded in the middle of a combat situation must go down as a strike against the awarding of a space-grade kite mark.Īdmittedly, we’re dwelling on this minor facet of the game too much, but it bothered us enough to be noticed. We can accept that perhaps the main character you play is no longer looking at things with the naked eye, but any helmet or goggles being used would have failed their testing procedure surely. Then there’s the fact that, once the main game starts, you are faced with even more flare - and often. This is a first person shooter and we wouldn’t expect to see patterns dancing in front of our own eyes if we aped the scenario in real life. Now, don’t get us wrong, we like a bit of stylist camera work in games, but you are looking at the normal lamp with the eyes of a child. Before leaving your home, take a look at a lamp on the table in the darkened surroundings and there is a light flare as if the sun exploded. Yes, we do like to see just how capable the PS4 is in a graphical sense, but it seems that every single light source features some glare effect that at times seems odd, others plain obstructive.Īn example of the former comes at the beginning of the game, when you’re just a small boy trying to escape the tyranny of the Helghast with your father. Killzone: Shadow Fall features more lens flare throughout than all of JJ Abrams’ and Michael Bay’s films put together. It will be burned into your retinas by the end. You definitely won’t be forgetting the lens flare though. ![]()
