Video games have been obsessed with physics for decades.
However, one bang out of physical simulation waves and wobbles above the rest: cloth physics.
Free-flowing like a liquid, but also rigid like a solid, it makes programming their collision a nightmare.
However, one thing it’s rarely credited with is just how good-looking it is.
What ties Unity’s look together is just how dramatic the game’s fabric is.
8Bloodborne
FromSoftware’s eldritch Victorian opus might win the award for Wettest Cloths In Video Games.
The cloth physics in Bloodborne help convey the game’s barely contained chaos.
Nowhere is this more apparent than the game’s staggering but subtle cloth physics.
Goodness, I just want hair that good.
Sadly, as a result, the cape physics in Helldivers is hardly the most complex.
4Ghost Of Tsushima
Very few games use the wind likeGhost of Tsushima.
Here, however, the Last Of Us realistically shows her shirt peel off her back.
It might not be swooshy, but it is animpactful moment, heightened by stellar physics.
1Journey
Journeyis a wonderful game for many reasons.
