Support NeoGAF

[TrebleShot]

Having built a nice gaming PC in december, I find myself wondering which platform I should buy my games on?
I am PS5 player as well and have really enjoyed and found myself relaxing more when playing on PS5 than PC.

I love the Dualsense and in many cases it decides what platform I play on, DSX and DS4W are not up to scratch as native support and quite often can be fiddly to configure for PC so I dont see it as a viable equal.

I am curious which way people are going for HW:L PC will of course allow for higher frame rates and pin sharp visuals but no trophy support, lack of DS features (at least unconfirmed for now) and the lack of the cosy, ease of play on console which way are people going?

 

[HotSauceEnema]

PC for me, just hoping it doesn't stutter like crazy

 

[DenchDeckard]

See how reviews go. I've pre ordered on xbox but I may get on pc if it turns out to be an amazing game with a brilliant pc port.

 

[Heisenberg007]

Suggestion: Console should be split into PS5, XSX, XSS, etc., because PC and Steam Deck are also split.

I'll be playing it on the PS5. Can't miss out on DualSense as each spell has a different feedback and feel, and so does the broom-flight sensation

 

[worldwithpyramids]

If the optimization is good then PC for ultrawide. Otherwise, PS5.

 

[Jigsaah]

I'm still on the fence about the purchase, but if I do play it, it'll be on PC.

 

[Guwop]

I'm going with the best graphics and highest frame rate so PC it is. My PS5 has been collecting dust.

 

[Lunarorbit]

I'm gong to wait for reviews but I'll get it for Ps5 probably that first week

 

[feynoob]

PC. Mods will make the game good for me.

 

[Rea]

Pc it is. Have to feed my hungry beast 4090.

 

[Umbasaborne]

Pc it is. Have to feed my hungry beast 4090.

Same. I just hope the stuttering isn’t too bad. Worst case scenario i can buy the ps5 version if it ends up being a bad pc port

 

[Sybrix]

 

[lh032]

PS5

 

[mrmustard]

Depending on the price XSX or PS5.

 

[Lucifers Beard]

PS5. I have no confidence that the PC port will turn out OK following the last few AAA games. I can also boot this up on the big screen rather than playing on my monitor.

 

[Mr.ODST]

Still deciding if to get the deluxe or standard

 

[SlimySnake]

Pc. My 3080 is roughly 60-80% faster than a ps5 and xsx so it’s a no brainer. I just hate pc gaming which still feels like a janky experience in 2023. Two crashes a day playing re3 this week. No audio when starting the game several times. Getting 5.1 surround to work on windows is a pain. And that’s before the day one debacles of many pc ports.

But console ports have also been shipping broken on day one lately so that’s No longer exclusive to PC.

 

[nightmare-slain]

PC. need a new game to put my 4080 to the test

do we know if it will have RTX on PC?

Still deciding if to get the deluxe or standard

£10 difference and you get it 3 days early.

I'm definitely going for the deluxe edition.

 

[outsida]

PC

 

[Green Yoshi]

PS5.

Will there only be a 30 fps and 60 fps option? I have a HDMI 2.1 compatible TV and 40 fps is a nice sweet spot between fidelity and performance.

 

[Jaybe]

XSX most likely, though if I happen to find PS5 at my preferred retailer in the next week I may switch that up.

 

[skyfall]

You forgot Switch

 

[Pagusas]

Bought it on pc, but just as you Op I do find the PS5 more relaxing to play on (things just work and I stop fiddling with settings. I’m sitting here on a 4090..). But I’ll start with pc. If it’s a bad experiance I’ll switch to ps5.

I wish steam deck 2 was out, the first was is just too underpowered/ugly/bulky/ugly screen to use, but I’m sure a 2nd one will come with an oled screen and better Soc, just wish it was out with this.

 

[Caio]

Jesus, I belong to the 6%...

 

[T4keD0wN]

I am waiting for reviews and if it has no unreal engine 4 pso caching related stuttering i am picking it up on PC.
I hope managers at WB have learned from their previous game Gotham Knights and allowed the devs to precompile shaders.

 

[STARSBarry]

Despite having a solid gaming PC, PS5. The duelsense trigger usage and the extra content sold it for me.

 

[Grildon Tundy]

PC with 2 qualifiers:

The game gets a decent critical and public response
The game doesn't run like garbage on PC

Im too late its sold out everywhere unless inpreorder digitally for £25 more

 

[Grildon Tundy]

PSA: I only just today realized that this is being developed by Avalanche Software--not Avalanche Studios Group.

Avalanche Studios Group = Just Cause, Mad Max, Rage 2

Avalanche Software = Disney shovelware titles

My hype =

 

[WalletBoy]

PC and Steam Deck for me

 

[Shtef]

XSX, performance mode.

Just remember, before GTA Rockstar North made Lemmings.

 

[22:22:22]

PS5.

Still waiting on my copy from Mattyp

Spoiler

Yes it's getting old. I'll stop

You read my mind.

 

[LaughingStock]

Series X. Maybe PC down the road if game is good and port is acceptable.

Every dev has to start somewhere to get experience, also remember the studio dramatically staffed up for this game.

 

[TexMex]

Deluxe preloaded on PS5, ready for tomorrow night.

 

[Banjo64]

Series S probably because there will likely be a cheapo key from a South American storefront.

 

[Aenima]

PS5 for the extra content. But im still waiting for reviews, and then a price drop.

 

[Fatmanp]

Its WB so the PC version is likely to be a total mess. I wonder if DF are covering the game or feel obliged to boycott.

 

[Ronin_7]

PS5, still waiting on reviews.

 

[StealthGoblin]

If it’s available on PS5 then I play it on that. Dualsense has ruined other platforms for me.

 

[Osthyvel]

PS5, no doubt.

 

[rofif]

I didn't wanted to get it at all but it does look very good.. I would get ps5 if physical worked offline which it doesn't.
PC also does not have any origin or other launcher crap. Just steam, so it's good.
I will wait to see how both versions are

 

[Jim Ryan other Clone]

PS5 and it's not a question, there is a special quest there and i don't care to see every useless detail on my mage rob and i want to avoid the stutter fest most games are lately on PC. Only the mods will be the thing i would want to have on consoles but you can't have everything.

 

[Sw0pDiller]

What kind of hardware does this game need to play it at med/high settings 1440p@60 and translate it in numbers of ps5's i could buy far that kind of money. i can tell you the answer is me playing this on ps5.

 

[FunkMiller]

Had to leave my Ps5 back in the UK, because it’s a big fat bitch, so XSX for me.

 

[-Zelda-]

getting it on ps5. Isn't there also a switch version? if so, I will get it on that at a later date.

Switch edition launches later on, not seen it yet but I imagine it’ll look dog rough.

 

[Putonahappyface]

PS5 hopefully quality mode at 40fps.
