From Dust - PC Game - does water like you've never seen before



It's too early to draw any conclusions about what kind of game we can expect in From Dust. Right now, this intended god game from Ubisoft is little more than a tech demo. But what an impressive tech demo it is for one simple reason: the water.Water has always been a problem for videogames. Consider a glass of liquid in Starcraft II's otherwise lush cutscenes. Lava and water are a big part of the Pixeljunk Shooter, but only within the careful confines of its 2D environment. Even game rivers as lovely as those in Lord of the Rings Online fall apart the moment you get too close to one of the waterfalls in Rivendell or out on the Ettenmoors. Realistic water has been one of the most elusive achievements for videogames.
But I've never seen anything quite like what From Dust promises in the above video.
