Those cutscenes weren't rendered in real-time, instead taking longer than one second to render one second of video. This one is rendered in real-time. It's impressive for sure to render lifelike humans, but to do so in real-time is even more impressive.

Don't most games use realtime cutscenes these days? Nothing shown here is a gigantic leap to what you see in Death Stranding for example. I'm not looking at her and seeing an actress it still just looks like a very good 3D model.

Yes, but that's the point. The should have released it as an App that we can interact with, pan around, move the chess pieces. It might as well just be a video.

Actually they should have plugged in stockfish and let us play against their character.
