I played a few hours on PC yesterday and if somebody is saying it looks worse than the PS4 version I’m questioning their sanity.
On the other hand, raytracing, HDR and frame generation are all completely broken and it is a disgrace to charge 70 bucks for a remake of a 9 year old game and not even do basic QA on their PC port. You also need a PSN account to play your singleplayer game.
What did I do? Whatever it was, wasn’t intentional. I was commenting in earnest. The trailers looked incredible, big uplift in graphics from just watching those. I am very interested to know why people don’t think the same.
I mean, trailers are going to pick the best-looking scenes. The comparison video linked in the article seems like it’s trying to be neutral and lots of scenes just look worse in it. I haven’t seen the actual game either, though…
Skimmed the comparison video in the article now, I don’t know if I just have different tastes or something but the remaster ps5 version looks so, so, so much better. Like it’s not even close.
hahaha it’s gotten called “already dawn” or “after dawn” a lot because they shifted it from cool lighting (that looks like the middle of the night lit by moonlight) to warm lighting (that looks like evening or morning light) so I thought “night and day” was a nod to that. the graphical fidelity is a lot better, but it wasn’t even bad in the original and the mood shift caused by the lighting change seems very unbefitting of the story and it also seems like they’ve cut idle animations? which is an insane choice the characters seem so dull and lifeless without them
Huh. Well I checked out more comparisons and just side-by-side I stand by what I first said, that the remaster looks much better. As for feeling or atmosphere, I’ll of course reserve that until I play/watch through the whole game. Love the original and intend to do so on the remaster eventually!
I haven’t played it, but the trailers I’ve seen were night and day better than the original.
