So I stumbled upon this on YouTube and I must say, man have the times changed. Everything was slow and the textures didn't look that great. I know the developers get bashed on a lot but man, they really did improve over time. Here's the footage if anyone wants to watch.

I liked how the game looked back then, environmentally and everything, now it just looks like a potato.
@Detective_Jonathan strangely, I do too. Things looked more simple, I guess. It really just seemed more dark and gloomy so it was more fitting
Why did graphics become really bad?
And please don't tell me graphics are better now, it looks like it was 10 times better.
I actually like how much cleaner it looks, They really overdo the whole mist and fog on most maps that it ends up looking muddy. Farm maps are eye sores tbh
I saw this the other night and thought about posting it. Nice!
whyyyy this look better than actual graphics?? tell me whyyyyyyyyyy!
It used to have such a spooky aesthetic. Game feels so dull graphics and lighting wise now.
I love the old grab animation
I bet the game was in a better state than it is right now
I liked old graphics and lighting better tbh
They should bring back these graphics honestly, but then I'm pretty sure it would kill optimization
OMG IT'S SO [BAD WORD] SLOW
Holy jesus devs were campers
This actually explains a lot. The Killer seems really OP in this iteration.
Oh how times have changed. Wish I had been playing during this
I like when the entity started shooting lasers out at the killer.
Man, the days of no loading bar. They were tough times. Thanks for posting!
@Giddawid Why did you change the grab animation?
It wasn't the devs playing btw. Best thing is that nobody knew stuff like looping and infinites yet and DCing and toxicity wasn't even a thing at all.
@Hoodedfengm1n It looked cool, but really long. Pretty sure because of that.
What is everyone talking about? That looks horrible overall.
The game has come so far
@PigNRun They can increase how fast it is tho
It has a certain charm to it.
When I look at the game now, sometimes I just want to cry.
The grab animation at 14:00 looked cool. Doesn't the grab animation look the same for both generators and windows now where you just grab their back? Happens so quick now you can't really appreciate it.
Dark like a horror movie. Funny moment with Jake not letting go of the wall. Wish I played back then.
We need this version of claudette in our game as well.
Something close to her, not exactly the same.
Back in the says when sound worked properly....
well the survivors had no idea what they were doing though, but gens took 60s to do and goods gave 5% progress and greats gave 10%, 40 pallets vaccum pallets and vaults, if survivors today were in alpha the killer wouldnt even hit anyone
the trap set animation is painful
Huh, one tiny thing i seem to like from the alpha is that the map soundtrack starts immediately.
I never really liked the current "camera-pan" noises it makes.
