Lighting improvements shown in recent Kingdom Hearts HD 2.8 Final Chapter Prologue TGS 2016 demo

Yeah. It's pretty different. It's just what some folks said about the character models being plastic doll-like. Now they look a bit realistic. 

Thank goodness they fixed Terra

The new gameplay isn't in 60 fps is it?

That actually looks much better now.

It's perfect!!!

You know, it's moments like these where we have to be thankful for the works that lighting departments do for video games and animated movies.

And another thing...

BE CAREFUL WHO YOU CALL UGLY IN MIDDLE SCHOOL

I knew I was right to believe they'd look better. I knew that it wasn't the final product back at E3.

It honestly looks the same to me. I just don't see the difference.

Are you kiddin'? The skin in Terra´s face as his look have been improved by a lot! The face it´s still emotionless but that´s part of the scene but you can see the change on the way he seems realistic compared to the last demo where he looked totally plastic and plain. But that´s just my opinion tho.

And so it begins... on a more serious note, look at the eye and nose placement from E3 Terra to TGS Terra. That alone can help you identify the differences.

Oh, thank God.

This is awesome news thanks for this

I tried to see it, but I just don't see it. I guess I'm not the person who judges games by graphics much

We're not necessarily judging by graphics, just that some have a good eye for these things

Neither am I, yet even I can see a clear improvement. 

Thanks for this article, Jake!

It's not even the graphics that much it's more of the lighting and saturated colors are fixed just look at Aqua in the first picture she's almost white as a ghost lol.

okay, I think I see it now. 

It looks sooo much better now. Many people complained about Terra looking weird, which was true. I also like how they updated Riku's model to make his arm muscles more visible huehue. Slight changes where already visible at gamescom but this comparison is almost drastic.

I can't Elisha how realistic it all looks. The textures, the details, the colors, I mean, it's unbelievable and better now with the improvements.
