How demanding are the games running on this engine going to be? i saw a new trailer with some INSANE particle effects; This blows away CryEngine 3 IMO. And is it going to be nvidia optimized? Experiencing Fallout 4 on this engine would be the best thing ever. (unlikely tho)

I saw that video awhile back with the Division gameplay. I can't remember exactly, but I remember getting upset because a handful of people were saying how "useless" and "not much different from CryEngine" it was. In my opinion, its gonna' look freaking amazing. If anything it will be Nvidia optimized because you know how companies can be, "you're better or everyone thinks you're better so if you pay us alot of money we will make everything around you and forget the other guys". It'll be a bit intense, but you won't have to worry about upgrading your entire arsenal, because I feel that only a handful of games will be made with this engine.
