On the nineteenth day, the question we have for you is "What was the best bit of gaming news for you in 2018?"
I'm really happy to see Obsidian get bought and have the opportunity to make 'bigger' games as well as continue to make games if the rumors of their financial issues are true. I didn't think it was going to happen, but apparently it did and I think the future potential of such a developer might replace the spot that Bethesda and BioWare once filled.
The Final Fantasy VII Rebirth combat director has expressed that he wants the final part in the trilogy to offer players "even more freedom".
I love the game so far but please don’t make the final part a mini game fest
Everytime I get to a new part in Rebirth it’s “mini game time”
Wccf tech writes: "Kingdom Come Deliverance 2's scope was impacted by the Xbox Series S hardware limitations, as developers could only make a game that was 25% bigger than its predecessor."
More info from the author of the article, I think: https://www.reddit.com/r/ki...
Quote:
"1) I was told this info from the producer of the game Martin Klíma.
2) He specifically said the game will have only one mode.
3) And this mode is 4K 30 on PS5/XSX and 1440p 30 on XSS.
4) He said that the game is already running north of the 30 FPS cap so the performance should be stable on launch, much better than KCD1.
5) The limitation was XSS because of the 10GB memory. He said that's why they wanted to make the game 25% larger.
6) Speculation on my part: the output resolution is probably upscaled and the reason why there won't be a 60 FPS mode is because it'll most likely be very CPU heavy, like Dragon's Dogma 2 for example."
Doesn't seem like they're adding a 40fps mode on PS5/Series X for launch even if they can handle it.
Remember when xbots were adamant that the series s won’t hold back the gen?
Microsoft just needs to let go of the mandatory parity. Who cares if your grandma doesn’t understand that a game cannot be played on the S. It’s not like it she can buy you a physical game for it anyway. Before buying the game put up a notice that it only works on series X. If you’re buying for a friend-allow for a refund.
Bam. Everyone is happy. Most series s owners are for casuals that want Game Pass anyway and most likely don’t purchase most games.
If the developers want it to run on S, let them figure it out.
“During the event, the Kingdom Come Deliverance 2 producer also revealed that on PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X, the game will run at 4K resolution and 30 frames per second“
Another “creative decision” right? 🤦♂️

Devil May Cry V & Daemon X Machina announcements.
Sony working with AMD Ryzen tech. Even though it's not confirmed for PS5, I have high hopes. Despite the amazing games this gen, and the technical wizardry they've managed to pull off in games like GOW, HZD, and the upcoming TLoU2, the current gen CPU has been console gaming's biggest hindrance this gen IMO.
Does gameplay reveal count?? Cuz the reveal for ghost of Tsushima was glorious and I am super excited for that game now!
