Reflections on PC (The Callisto Protocol)
Ku, Why is GG not reflected in the mirrors? How to turn on? Thank you.Linkin41
Turn on tracing and the reflection in the mirror will appear, but in quality it will be much inferior to the reflections in the mirror in Mafia 2.

In Mafia 2, only the resolution of reflections is higher, but the implementation is poor compared to tracing! for example, in normal reflections in mirrors, dynamic light sources, shadows, and so on will not be displayed ... but they will be with tracing!

Found an even older game.
Spoiler 
And it also has no problems with reflections, and in a completely new game, even with tracing at the maximum setting, the hero's reflection is barely visible!

Watch the video about the reflection in games, so in the old games these reflections are spelled out in advance! and they only apply to a certain room, everything behind it will not be reflected!

And what of it? Reflections in old games look better than in new ones or at the same level and do not require powerful hardware! In the game, you don’t stand still, you left the location and it doesn’t matter what is reflected there or not, you still can’t see it anyway.)))

Yes, nothing of the sort. In new games, where they thought about it, there are reflections, and they are quite dynamic.
And where initially hack-work, as in the calista sratocole, this is not there. And there are not only problems with this, there are textures from the year 2000, for example, hexagonal pipes. On UE5, it was possible to make a picture of candy, and not particularly straining, and even with that they will do fine. They like to pour slop on publishers, they say they oppress unfortunate game developers, especially large ones like EA. in fact, large publishers are quality control, if you don’t comply, let’s go out. )
