I have disengaged from podcasts lately as the cynicism and doom over video games is a little too much right now

For all we know, it is probably not a common occurrence. We will find out soon enough.

I can honestly tolerate 30 FPS based on the videos.

Same. It feels like what happens if you have two years where Xbox is absolutely smashing it and they are just like ‘great to see all systems doing well’ then a few months of supply issues and the same people are just coming out with the glee about Xbox being dead or whatever.
There are things Xbox need to do but it’s getting back to ridiculous proportions.

It seems have good motion blur so yes, that will make the 30fps more tolerable for a FPS.

I feel for the devs honestly, their game is being dragged as a failure even before release by fanboys from both side of the gaming spectrum lmao. Hopefully after redfall, Harvey and the team at Arkane Austin can make the games they want to make.

Yeah. Very short videos. Will grt taken down but whatever. Hes not spoiling the game just bite size videos of gameplay. Looks pretty cool.
It’s too bad that Xbox really lost that momentum that they definitely had. It feels like apart from the awesome surprise that is Hi-Fi Rush it’s been a lot of bad news lately. Last year was not good for Xbox first party wise for those looking for bigger games. 2023 really at that point seemed to be THE year.
2023 started great and ideally Redfall had continued that by just being a 100% finished game, as you’d expect. For reasons this unfortunately isn’t the case. Now I just really want to get to June, have Todd knock it out of the park with (Xbox) Starfield gameplay and the Xbox show with some real nice gameplay reveals from XGS too for games to come after Starfield and FM.
the game is 100% complet- you know what nevermind. time for me to use that ignore feature

Yeah, I was very critical with the lack of 60 fps at launch but if that is indeed the Series X version, it doesnt look that choppy.
Videos, albeit short, look good imo. I will try it for myself, no long now.
Jesus, we’re doing this?
Please just tell me how on God’s green earth can we consider this game 100% finished when it clearly is not releasing with a mode it was supposed to release with? Remember, how it says 60fps on the box, and then sticker over it? As per Jez.
Ignore me all you want if you really want to be that childish. I didn’t say anything bad, certainly no hyperbole either. Content complete? Sure, a 100% finished product, sorry, it just is not. But I leave it to you to overreact, nothing new.

‘Content complete’ is what he meant. As for missing the performance mode, there is no point in arguing about that again lol.
But it wasn’t even meant as argument. It was just a general comment how things sadly didn’t unfold how we all wanted and now let’s look forward to June.
Pretty much no games are 100% complete going by this logic

Yeah from watching those videos, Redfall 30fps looks fine. I’ll be alternating between Series S and PC but nice to see that it won’t be anything like Ghostwire Tokyo’s 30 which was nauseating.

Honestly… for the folks that don’t want to read/interact with the negativity, it seems like it’s better not to bother with the community until there is something better to discuss.
I don’t come to this hobby for negative emotions, so I’m spending less time here (and not consuming other stuff, like podcasts) and more time gaming.

Internet perception =/= actual reality.
Look at some of the people on social media suddenly enjoying Jedi Survivor in quality mode after having a hoo-haa about not playing until the performance mode is fixed.

Shit happens.
It sucks they weren’t able to get 60 out for release, but clearly they’ve been working on it for a while and it’ll come when it does.
That doesn’t mean it’s not a “complete” game. This isn’t some game breaking bug, or something like ds1 which has a quarter of the game literally unfinished.
If someone doesn’t want to play redfall until they add in 60, that’s fine, good for them. But that doesn’t mean the game can suddenly be written off. Otherwise, did everyone who played fh5 at 30 not get a “complete” game?
It’s just semantics at the end of the day but expecting this game to already be bad because 60 is coming later is crazy to me.
There’s a whole lot more to a game than performance. Especially when the vast majority of gamers out there can adapt to lower framerates all the time.

Initially I was gonna wait for the 60fps patch to come, and the main reason was because Ghostwire in 30 was so terrible feeling I thought that’s what Redfall was gonna feel like. After seeing some of these videos I’m gonna give it a try at 30 on the X and if I’m not feeling it in 30 I’ll either switch to the PC version or maybe I’ll just start my Fable playthrough. Really liking what I’m seeing from some of the gameplay clips, this game looks right up my alley.
