Me neither.
I think we should put this comparison to rest since there are no tangible examples in our hand? Ironically that hallway scene with the lamp I actually thought that was a game guru scene at first. I can tell you for a fact that whats in that scene alone, shadows, lighting and etc all possible right now in GG.
S2 Engine is not a stable piece of software. It crashes a lot. Its an unusual engine to compare to. Especially since we do not have any demos to test with to compare FPS and graphics.
That city example is possible in GG as well. It has a pulled back FOV and the camera distance is set really far so you can see the distant LOD loaded buildings in the distant fog. Maybe i could make a comparative shot. For now, here's a little scene i made in a few minutes the other day, showing distance treatment and what you can do with lights and shadows.
The first example you have shown us, that bedroom scene... was made by Capcom in the 64-bit engine "RE Engine" by 120 staff members. An odd comparison. I think its better to show us something using similar stock quality items as we have in GG in another engine. Because the reason why the shadows look so good in Resident Evil 7 are due to the talents they have on board on top of their amazing engine.
For example there is a technique you can use to bake your shadows into your models' texture. This is usually done for static scenes where the lighting does not dynamically change direction. Basically anticipating what areas would not be hit by light and darkening them. I have no doubt that that's how they made their fabrics look so good and floor boards.

Well don't hold your breath or give up your day job... Could be a teeny wait for GG to pull that off "
Synchromesh sums it up best ^ Keep in mind how much you paid for GG and you might want to reconsider your expectations lol As for people like myself I just want something that looks good and runs good with the freedom to be fully creative. GG is in the right direction for that. Trust me, the next update looks great.
