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...
