Maybe we shouldn’t be too sad about the skipping of Xbox, could have been a disappointment too.

If it does come to Xbox, I can bet it won’t be as pleasing. The only upside for me would be quick resume. In short, I’m not counting on “superior” edition.

DF Article @ Final Fantasy 7 Remake on PC is a disappointing, barebones port • Eurogamer.net

Summary from Phantom88 @ B3D

  • Framerate is tied to dynamic resolution scaling with no way to turn it off unless using mods.
  • Some texture options are very lack luster and don’t add much to the visuals.
  • High end systems have frametime issues
  • DX12 seems to be the cause of major frametime issues.
  • Running the game in forced DX11 seems to fix most frametime issues, still not a perfect solution. Some frametime issues still exist, but the FPS is significantly improved.
  • 30FPS mode has frametime issues too, so putting that on won’t help.
  • Running DX11 breaks the vsync but can be enabled at the driver level.

What’s up with dx12 performance compared to dx11 in some games…

I have seen this in Watch Dogs Legion as well :confused:

It’s very weird considering DX12 released in July 2015. You’d think with 6+ years of time they would have a handle on it.

Part of the issue is the developers clamored for more control, so many of the things DX11 did for you is now up to developers to control in DX12. They thought they knew better. They couldn’t handle it. Either they overestimated their skills or underestimated how difficult it could be having to do it all themselves.

Part of the issue can be mitigated by having the games precompile the shaders, but that doesn’t even begin to cover just the tip of the FF7R PC issues.

The only way Square can save their reputation now is by fast tracking the GaijinBox release.

Superior edition? Oh man I think we would be lucky to get a on par with PS5 edition and not just the PS4 Pro one or so, lol.

Pro? Come on now, if it ever launches we are going to get a 720p Xbox One port with no options for 60fps, and it won’t be updated until the Backwards Compatible team does it themselves./s

Outside of some horrible looking doors here and there, FF7R looked pretty good and ran pretty well on PS4 Pro. I had no real issues with the game on a technical level.

We win anything?

Nope. Returnal, Lego builders and R&C were top 3.

5392

What the hell is Lego Builders?

5393

Exactly what the title suggests.

5394

What? No Forza Horizon 5?

DF: Forza Horizon 5 is a stunning display of what next-gen can look like real time on next-gen consoles. Stunning graphics, performance and more.

Also DF: LEGO.

Maybe they excluded crossgen games

Aren’t these Johns personal picks? I’m not sure he likes racers much.
