The grass looks fake and monotonic. Can you imagine looking at the same crap for even a single hour?
BTW, you never see the blades interact with one another - they seem to interact with the wind and the objects thrown at them.
Much like TressFX - useless. A marketing gimmick to make you buy in. |

It looks hell of a lot better than anything else on the market, which is still mainly sprites.
Sure it doesn't look and act like a real field of grass, but i doubt the processing power is ready for that yet.
Rome wasn't build in a day, but that didn't stop people from living in finished houses.
Also imagine looking at your posting for a single hour, it could cause cancer in kittens. |

I'm sure this was not built in a day, either.
Though it looks like it was. |

So uhmm what OTHER competitor has done this? Mantle?
Its something new and never been done before ergo possible future gameplay possibilities is NEVER a bad deal.
Waiting for competition to 1UP this... |
