It's immensely stupid that the developers were allowed to model her fully nude if she has a no-nudity policy, then. I understand the need for an accurate body shape recreation or whatever so we can feel her emotions, but keeping all the details in the game files is a ridiculous oversight. These dumbs go over every technical detail and level script with a fine toothed comb, but they neglect the fact that anybody with the right equipment can extract nudies of their justin bieber idol thing just like that. Quantic Dream is actually that dumb.

Got it, just watched the full scene. Either way that's pretty butthurt. You know that basically any game with a prominent female character is going to have nude mods and stuff showing up. Is she completely unaware of gaming culture, fans and the entire Internet? Wait, actually, she probably is.

I mean, even if the nude model somehow didn't exist (which is impossible given it's used in the game), you know someone would mod in a nude model with every breast size selection imaginable after a few weeks, anyway, or extract her model from the game files and turn it into 3D lizardcest porn. I'm not saying she shouldn't be upset, but threatening legal action over this is ridiculous. It's not like Sony is at fault here - I'm sure they fulfilled their contract completely, in that she's not depicted in complete full-frontal nudity in the game. How are they liable for what some random person on the Internet does?
This is not some troglodyte on the internet making mod. This is a professional game studio deciding that Ellen Page's nipples need to be modeled despite never being shown. This is seriously really creepy.

Pretty much this, if it was not even supposed to show why they bothered to texture the nipples?

This is a company that makes a game where a hot police woman has sex with a literaly cold undead guy and make all of their heroines to walk around in panties for no good reason but to give pretext to nerds to fap. Quantic dreams are creepy since day one. I just find that is the ice of the cake that David Cage, of all people, is one of the guys that give interviews about empowering women.:lol:

Maybe at one point in development it was intended she be shown nude fully but then plans changed? Though that said, I was not aware of the "no nudity" policy. In that case maybe someone at Quantic Dream was indeed having a little too much fun.

What?

And why would they need to accurately model her body? Maybe her face (is her face accurate? I don't know) if they wanted to beat you over the head that they got ZOMG ELLEN PAIGE (who gives a shit?), but her body? Who would have checked if the body proportions fit exactly, let alone the fucking nipples. Better yet, who would have known?

This Cage guy is demented. Someone give him a job in the movie industry already so we can get rid of him.

It would be even more interesting if that Drog and the Drog that made the Unofficial Arcanum Patch were one and the same.

They likely just use body-scanning technology: http://www.g4tv.com/thefeed/blog/po...nology-behind-emotional-virtual-performances/
Quantic Dream used a setup of 28 cameras for Heavy Rain; their new studio has 65 and the actors wear 90 markers on their bodies and faces. Unlike full motion scan technology (like that used in L.A. Noire), this method doesn’t capture a video of the performance, but rather creates a highly detailed map of the face and body. The team uses a body scanning technology to create identical digital “clones” of the actors that, when combined with the mesh created from the performance capture, creates a perfect virtual replica of the actor.

Cage explained that this new method allows for a much truer performance and adds a level of complexity and fidelity that is almost entirely lost when face and body are captured separately. See above video for why this is true. “Kara” was born out of a desire to understand the potential of this new technology and what it could allow Quantic Dream to deliver with its next project, not just in terms of the tech involved, but in terms of how the team approached everything from casting, to actor prep, to direction.

Similar to this:



Not sure why nudity is supposed to be wrong all of a sudden, but David Cage does seemingly have an unnatural obsession with shower scenes and they probably should've clarified it with the actors involved previously.

So this means that all the pedos can now fap to those leaked Ellen Page images knowing this will be the closest thing to the real thing they will ever get?

Oh what a glorious day for the internet

The shape yes, it doesn't create areola or nipple textures.
It's literally 65 DSLR cameras (in the video above those are Canon 550D with 18 megapixels) taking detailed pictures of a human from every angle and putting them together to create a model of the whole in software including depth and image data, so assuming they scanned her naked yes it kind of does.
See the video above, it'll record any moles, scars or skin irregularities too.
They'll have to abstract that down to a polygon model and texturing using said data though to allow real-time rendering and animations from simpler motion-capturing methods, since every scan is only a still image at the moment.

BTW I just has a thought,if they made the models as anatomically correct as they could does this mean that Dafoe's 3d model includes his huge dick?:?
And if so deos this mean that Jaesun is too busy playing the collecter's edition right now?:?

IIRC there's a glitch in Heavy Derp which allowed you to run around with the female characted naked, or so I heard. So it was done on purpose I assume.
