Oh FFS first I was mocked for a 24 inch monitor and now my 42 inch TV
I’m buying a 65 inch tv soon but even that’ll probably be laughed at
Nah 65" is a good size. My wife has never complained.

”And the winner of the Game Of The Year award goes to…”
Poor Guerrilla, Bethesda, Sony Santa Monica, Nintendo(?)
This was so much higher than I expected! Wasn’t sure if I should buy this but this is just crazy, I’m not sitting on the fence here. Where is it the best? I have all platforms and an open wallet.

For real, BOTW2 might still release this year. We all knew the 2022 lineup was gonna be bananas, but...

I feel i must of just got lucky with Dark Souls 3 and Sekiro as they ran at a locked 60fps on my PC, and both games seemingly had performance problems for some PC gamers, like this game it seems.
Hopefully i get lucky with Eldern Ring too lol.
Not sure why PC and XSX/PS5 should be having problems anyway with a game that looks around Dark Souls 3 level but open world anyway.

It's no surprise that some PC players are pickier than others. I guess that could be said with anyone out there in general. That being said, with PC there are SO many different combinations of specs that some folks are bound to experience some bizarre stuff that the majority may not.RPS says PC version is fine. And they are PC people. Weird.
Elden Ring PC performance and best settings guide
Elden Ring my be FPS-capped on PC, but you can still get the most out of its performance by using its best settings combinations.www.rockpapershotgun.com
All I know is that ACG and SkillUp didn't have issues that negatively impacted the game whatsoever. SkillUp mentioned having FPS drops, but when he lowered his res it was basically buttery smooth the entire time. But to say there performance was "so poor" is really odd to me.

yeah, i get what you mean.
for me, I have no problem buying it because of FROMs pedigree. They consistently put out GOTG level games. the fact that they've supposedly infused that gameplay with arguably the best open world design/formula (botw) makes it easy for me to believe the reviews.

I mean some peoples have « PC » but in what kind of conditions? With the equivalent of a cat in dust inside? With fucking data mining apps all over the place? With background mining as a zombie PC that they don’t even know about?
I’m pretty confident it will run well on mine, we’ll see.

I don't really get the "God" part or "mystery" part but......sure?
I just mean it's different to actually go skydiving or to watch someone skydive on TV. It's different to watch a movie review or to actually see the movie for you're self. If that has to do with God and/or mystery. So be it.

So you can over level? Meaning grind trash mobs get OP to fight bosses to make battles easier?

Ask me about my Stream Deck
I'm not disagreeing, but I personally feel the frame pacing issues were only truly severe on Bloodborne. I also didn't feel Sekiro and DS3 were "broken" when I played through them on ps4pro, though I'm not denying they had performance issues.
All I'm saying is there's good reason to believe performance will be improved soon after launch and that the games will be enjoyable on all current gen platforms.

Ya, Sekiro did run well. I recently did a playthrough of DS3 just a few days ago and it ran super well other than me having to hex-edit in Ultrawide Support. I really hope it runs great on PC. I just want to experience the adventure.

Ahhh shit balls! Series x version is broken.
Because I've bought the ps5 disk can I download the ps4 version to play on ps5 or would I have needed the ps4 version?

For me, the only games that have the potential to beat this are Zelda and Starfield. But now I dunno - this sounds and looks absolutely incredible, like a true work of art.

So the final game runs like the Beta on Series X and DF is trying to find a way to give Xbox users a playable alternative?
Just to be clear here the beta runs at lower resolution and shit performance on Series X.

You've always been able to do that in any FS Souls' game.

If I was Microsoft I would have sent all the ninjas to from soft to assist with the xbox version. Failure on their part if they haven't.

For people that want to look at an early comparison of all versions -
PS5 version runs the best in the 55-60fps range most of the time.
None of the modes are locked though, including the 30fps quality modes, which is pretty weird and shit really.. And even the best version in PS5 can be anywhere from 50-60fps. Series S hovers around 50fps, and XSX version sems to be in the 40-50fps range, and actually performs worse than the S version.
I dont really think any of the console versions are very good in any mode. I just hope my Dark Souls 3 and Sekiro luck keeps going and i can get a locked 60fps on my PC.
Not very impressive though from From, yet again.
The PS5 version is the one to get out of the consoles though.

If this game turns out to be a stutter fest like Bloodborne... Another FROM game I need to ignore until they fix it...
It looks like another case when press overhypes themselves long before the reviews so they are just giving perfect scores by inertia. Similar to BOTW and RDR2, where in reality both games are far from their MC aggregate.

RDR2 has among the worst controls of any game in recent history. that's a fact
super long-winded animations and input latency in the 180ms range, which is a very generous estimate

its pretty obvious its going to win everywhere.
You cant literally have the highest rated game of all time release (or one of) and not give it game of the year.
