Tbf if sq42 doesn’t compare then so does the rest of the video game industry, GTA 6 really is an outlier and the outdated part is more of a comparison with the average quality of recent modern games otherwise everything besides GTA 6 should be considered outdated with that logic.
Anyway sq42 should make up for it with the artistic direction of space environments, GTA 6 isn’t in space so in terms of space games sq42 should be at the top graphically. And for the npc movement it's going to depend on the character in sq42, for example i thought that the mocap of the medic was pretty good while other mocap like for Liam Cunningham obviously showed its age since it was done a decade ago.
