Someone Managed To Reproduce The Unreal Engine 5 Tech Demo In Dreams

TGG says: "I’m pretty sure we were all floored by Wednesday's Unreal Engine 5 Tech Demo, but Martin Nebelong, a freelance artist from Denmark managed to reproduce that stunning opening scene in Dreams on the Playstation 4 and it only took him TWO hours"

[TGGJustin]

Dreams never fails to impress.

[bloodyspasm]

It's amazing, but I could never hope to create something like that myself. It takes a special kind of insight to use it optimally and I applaud Martin for doing it in such a short timespan 0_0

[TGGJustin]

Same. I enjoy playing all the stuff other people have the skills and time to make.

[bouzebbal]

Looks sick..
Can anyone do the same on project spark to compare?

[Babadook7]

I was hoping he would move the lighting.

[NewMonday]

this is how it would look with detail scaled down for the XBoxSX

[dangerousbrian0]

@bouzebbal that would be impossable as Project Spark is dead & unavailable & @NewMonday the detail my be exactly the same or maybe better than the PS5 on the XboxSX as it is more powerful so it would be able to do the same or better more powerful things tend to do things slightly better then less powerful things if programed right if I remember correctly. I know this is mostly a Playstation fan site but that is what Playstation sites are for hence the name Playstation in the sites title for Playstation fans & everything Playstation anything without Playstation in the sites title is a neutral site meaning equal to everything.

[RpgSama]

Wow, that event just happened!!

Amazing, amazing work in such a short amount of time.

Imagine dreams on a ps5 🤯

[TGGJustin]

Yeah I have no doubt they are working on bigger things for it for PS5. They said they have a 10 year plan for the game.

[bloodyspasm]

Personally, I'd get it just to play other people's work. I don't have the patience to create levels of my own even though I'd love to one day make my Turn Based RPG based on Life as a Currency ^^

[Neonridr]

@bloodyspasm - it's like that way with many games. Take even something like Mario Maker. You have the people who want to create the levels and those who just want to play with them. With Dreams I would definitely love to get my feet wet and try some things, but I don't know if I have the creativity to come up with some of this stuff. So I'd probably just want to sample what everyone else is making.

[Imortus_san]

LMAO, if the game user gets small they will cut it and store it way just like any other Sony game.

[bloodyspasm]

I wonder if there will be a PS5-only version of Dreams. With effects & other stuff that isn't available on the PS4 version.

[TGGJustin]

I would have to imagine that it will be updated with things that you can only do on PS5 especially if they support it for 10 years. Kind of like how GTA Online and Destiny stopped getting new updates on last gen consoles.

[Felix_Argyle_Catbro]

Imagine Dreams on PC. Would be insane.

[Ghostbob]

I think Dreams is coming to the PC

[Spicyram]

Yea whatever, troll.

[Felix_Argyle_Catbro]

Ghostbob, I certainly hope so. Limiting it to one platform isn't good.

[WickedLester]

I absolutely believe this is happening.

[iplay1up2]

Dreams is not in development for PC yet. It is being updated for PS5 though! Media Molecule wants to bring it to PC.

[fulldeepdive]

I'm here to get downvoted because I own a PlayStation and I agree more PlayStation exclusives are going to come to PC and they are. Stating facts.

[MrVux000]

Now imagine it on PS5, even more insane...

[Felix_Argyle_Catbro]

MrVux, PS5 is considerably weaker than a PC, so it wouldn't be insane at all.

[KilluaX3]

True. This game would shine the brightest on PC. It's probably going to be 30fps on PS5 which sucks.

[CosmicTurtle]

Having it on PC or supporting mouse and keyboard controls on PS4/5 would really up the quality of creation. The controls are fine but inevitably there are some sacrifices with precision with analogue sticks and Move. The best other addition would be VR sculpting.

[NextGenDale]

People’s creativity never fails to impress. GG to the guy who made this.

[Shuckylad]

His skills Using dreams is impressive. I wouldn’t say copying something is creative.

[bloodyspasm]

It's not an exact copy, it's a recreation with a limited toolset. If that isn't creative 😅

[Nyxus]

This one is also very impressive: https://www.youtube.com/wat...

[gold_drake]

wow that was quick

[drizzom]

Suspiciously quick.

[bloodyspasm]

Haha, no, this guy is just a master at his craft.

[AnubisG]

While impressive, this isn't close to UE5, sorry.

[MrVux000]

Considering this was made in less than 2 hours, does it even matter?

[AnubisG]

I said it was impressive. What does impressive mean MrVux?

[TripleAAARating]

no one said it was technically as impressive as the UE5 demo, the assets are impossible to recreate as its a totally more advanced platform.. but you should know this, or you're just playing dumb to validate your 'meh' tone in your comment?.. Pathetic really.

[Software_Lover]

It does matter, in a sense, since the title says that the demo was reproduced. It is impressive, but the demo was not even close to being reproduced.

This cancel culture, you are with me or against me mentality has to stop. It is a cancer. AnubisG was 100% correct and factual, not opinionated. It was impressive, but not close to UE5.

[TripleAAARating]

@software

This is Anibus comment "While impressive, this isn't close to UE5, sorry."..... That "sorry" at the end implies that he believes someone said it was as impressive as the UE5 demo, which is definitely not the case. It should be UNDERSTOOD that this recreation would not be, so why the need to state it?.

[Sunny_D]

No shit? This is a PS4 game...

[Software_Lover]

I wouldn't say reproduced, but they did 10000000x's better than what I would have done.

[iplay1up2]

Dreams is NOT being made for PC, as of right now. Media Molecule wants to bring it to PC, but it is not in development yet.

Sony wants you to buy their console to use it! PC gamers will spend a ton of money on upgrades constantly, why can't they make a ONE TIME investment in a console to play exclusives? Just a thought. Especially next gen! Here is a link that talks about Dreams and PC!

[abstractel]

Dreams is a great piece of software, I love the things coming out of it, think it's useful for a lot of people wanting to get a feel for making games and showing off your gameplay ideas. It's easier to learn than UE4 plus you got the modeling, sound, and animation tools right there and a community that shares. Good job by the artist...

But I can't imagine anyone actually comparing the two creations (not taking away anything from artist's efforts, and the scene that was obviously created in just over a day).

[fulldeepdive]

How do you create Unreal Engine 5 in the Dreams Engine...…………... LOL

[The_Sage]

Read the title. It says the "demo" is recreated.

[P_Bomb]

I’ll add it to my queue! My play later and send to player have been getting a lot of use lately. Game’s got legs.

[Npugz7]

Ya I don’t think so

[Clown_Syndr0me]

I got dreams a couple of months every game looks awful and the movement is terrible, feels like youre dragging your feet

[The_Sage]

Either your lying or you've only played one game.

[Clown_Syndr0me]

played around 20 probably. Every game i played your character movement feels really weird, like theyre heavy? Movement is far from precise.
Every single game looked blurry, I didn't play anything that impressed me at all which was a shocker because after all the great things I heard I literally picked up a PS4 again just to play it.

On the bright side im now playing FF7 and got TLOU2 on the horizons, but dreams probably wont be touched ever again.

[Destiny1080]

PS5 Will Bring A locked 60 fps to Dreams Maybe even 120 fps

Ugly is not a word i would associate with dreams and it only gets better with the PS5

[bloodyspasm]

That just depends on the configuration of each game, I guess. "EVERY game?"

[Clown_Syndr0me]

Everyone I played. i coudlnt find one with character movement which wasn't unbearable.

[The_Sage]

Clown,

Check out "Ascent". Also check out "Happy Jack". Then try "Taken by the Rust". Then try "Lash". Give "Silent Hill The Nun" a try. There are so many truly astounding games in Dreams.

[Akarogg]

You're a clown

[QuePasa87]

Whoa that's incredible

[simran12345]

I think Dreams is coming to the PC

[Elda]

Possibly in 3 years.

[quenomamen]

Imagine Dreams 2 on PS5?

[XxSPIDEYxX]

GOTY!

[bloodyspasm]

Sadly, I don't think it will ever stand a chance. But the concept and execution of Dreams is done so well, it does deserve a whole lote more credit!

[Father__Merrin]

Dreams will be even better on ps5

[CosmicTurtle]

The absence of transparency and deeper logic management really hamstrings what is otherwise an excellent tool.

[galmi]

impressive

After all the tech demo can be run on current gen with some few things scaled by according to digital foundry

[WelkinCole]

How the frag man. Some people are way way more talent than me lol!

[olorin818]

It's a very misleading title. It's not tech that was reproduced , but rather simply a scene. Looks great but its two different things.

[medman]

Dreams. PS5. Sold.

[Games1st]

Dreams would be a great launch title for PS5. There will be thousands of games and previous limits will be broken.

[ILostMyMind]

Sony needs to put Dreams on PS Now.
