Today’s game is Halo CE. I needed to debug an issue i was having with a SymLink on my SSD with the game’s Proton data. After that i made sure to double check everything was working fine. I ended up playing through the first two levels. The main screenshot is from the Start of the second level where you have to evade covenant troops. There was this really pretty waterfall i took a picture of. Water just kind of seemed to be the focus of the screenshots for today though (i’m sure [email protected] will love this though). I had a few extra clips i wanted to share too but i think the file for those got corrupted right after the game crashed.
Overall CE has some pretty water, like this river here. The way it looks reminds me of Ocarina of Time and the river right out front of Hyrule Castle.
Here’s the river in the Anniversary version. I think i like the classic one more, but that’s more so personal preference (and probably my love for OOT). It still looks very pretty though and i love it.
Finally there was this bulletin board i wanted to share from the Anniversary Graphics (This way no one can say i only shared water pictures in this post). It looks way different there and you can tell the Dev team had a lot of fun with it. I like the cat found poster the most though, it’s a very cute cat.
They textured instead of polygoned/tessellated/bumpmapped. The 2D doesn’t logically match the 3D. Idk, it’s weird, like a hasty remaster where they applied some general rules/scripts instead of doing the work.

Something about the stones bothers me, idk what though
