Barrett isn't really employed by BioWare he just shows up and plays games, think of the Seinfeld episode where Kramer just showed up to work in an office. 

 

"I'm sorry we are going to have to let you go, it's as if you have no business skills at all."

"But I don't really work here."

"That's what makes this so hard!"

As posted before, it's most likely a fake SSS shader, possibly done with transparency and reflection maps to achieve the effect. Most SSS shaders I know of require ray tracing to be physically accurate. I don't know of any real time ray tracing in game engines yet, but hopefully that'll be a thing in the not too distant future.

I'm not sure why one would want real time SSS though, Dices solution seems to be a good compromise for now as far as cost/look. Looks good enough to me :P

Make these people watch the relevant musical number from Mary Poppins:

I am not sure if release build means they are in purely polish mode or if it is just what they call this stretch. Either way sounds like things are moving forward at least.

We have a variety of binaries/executables that are usually available throughout development. Basically:

Debug: running in full debug mode, has full set of programming hooks active, runs horribly slow, best for solving crashes.

Release: much less active debug, but still has all debug tools available, runs OK usually, most commonly used during dev.

Final/Ship: there are a variety of these depending on project/engine, ranging from starting to strip out any debug stuff to emulated versions of what you guys will play to the actual versions you guys would play. Typically not used until late in dev since they're much less useful for deeper debugging purposes.

So Orsino wasn't a hypocrite in the end after all...he just had mad party skills. Mind blown, perspective changed, YOLO, etc.

The stranger thing is to imagine all the voice actors getting to the "combat sounds and jump exertion" session and just grunting/screaming repeatedly for minutes on end.

Oh I don't disagree with you there, their skin shaders look fantastic. But technology seems to be heading in that direction, so I think it's only a matter of time before we get there.

 

I'll stop going off topic now. :P
