Article link to Twitter seems to be dead. Just letting you know since you posted it. Your comment link still works though.

Obscure_Observer770d ago

The source link (Twitter) is working just fine over here. :/

Skate-AK770d ago

Weird. Still getting a HTTP 400 error.

Lightning77771d ago

Good to see the graphically they're meeting expectations.

thesoftware730771d ago

Indeed, if the game really looks that good it is 100% on another level.

Livingthedream770d ago

Stunning, definitely next gen! Can’t wait to play it!

jBlakeeper770d ago

Well it’s one of the first games that will be released using UE5. Making it truly next gen. So graphics like these are what we are hopefully in for in the near future.

BestBusdriver771d ago

No thx. Forza over GT....God of War over Hellblade

Jin_Sakai770d ago (Edited 770d ago )

Forza Motorsport, God of War: Ragnarök, and Hellblade 2 for me.

Barry32171770d ago

Exactly! No reason that we cannot enjoy them all. 8)

Flawlessmic770d ago

Yea i dont see why they cant all be enjoyed.

MrChow666770d ago

What does God of War have to do with Hellblade? please explain

Stanjara770d ago

Like it or not, but it's a direct competitor to GOW from MS. They are really pushing it with production, graphics and technology.
Now all we have to see is gameplay, story and characters.

Godmars290770d ago

@Stanjara:
Given what's been shown, not seeing much worth comparing.

Even before the new GOW had a release date they were showing more than single multi-tone gray/black scenery.

And I'm trying not to be harsh, but this is coming off as another overly high expectations in need to be lowered.

Omegasyde770d ago

Damn I’d love another heavenly sword, which is comparable. Not hellblade

@Godmars290

"Given what's been shown, not seeing much worth comparing."

How could you? You saw Hellblade II´s gameplay trailer and complained about the lack of on screen hud/commands, assuming that it was not gameplay. Lol.

You never played Hellblade in your life and somehow you feel like you´re entitled to make comparisons. XD

@Obscure_Observer:
How does seeming lack of gameplay take away from apparent lack of gameplay?

Likewise how does if I played Hellblade or not invalidate my opinion of it being compared to GoW? Honestly haven't played the new game but I've still saw more stills and video of it and its gameplay as I have of either Hellblade. Many here have as likely never touched any iteration of GoW yet have put Hellbalde II on par with it.

FFS: How many times do we honestly have to go through this round and round of MS announcing something, maybe showing a CG trailer, their fan camp going ape-s**t over a "Sony-Killer" only to then have to deal with the usual Seven Stages with even then few getting past "acceptance" that said "killer" never came close?

Well, that remains to be seen. God of War is awesome and I honestly don´t think Ninja Theory has the experience to go against Santa Monica when comes to AAA development. But you also understand that Sony fans (like yourself) has curb stomp Xbox games and its quality for a long time. Just like you did, above.

Thing is, no one stays at top forever and Xbox is truly investing in first party games and its quality, to the point where they don´t need to rush anything anymore like showing gameplay of games that is are no ready to show.

Sony however has no other choice but to truly invest in their games AND convince PS gamers that PS5 games are really worth of 70$ in contrast with Series XS games at 60$ and day one Gamepass offerings.

So don´t be surprised when you see comparisons made between GT7 vs Forza Motorsport, Horizon vs Starfield and God of War vs Hellblade II.

Then, and only then, we´ll talk about those Seven Stages of yours.

Kingdom Come Deliverance 2's Scope Was Impacted by Xbox Series S Limitations

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."

This is the issue with things like this

Xbox Series X is apparently to MS the worlds most powerful console

However the Series S is obviously a limitation because it’s underpowered and developers have to go for parity.

So what’s the point of the world’s most powerful console if you are holding third party developers back? They aren’t going to push themselves if they have to think about the weakest console.

The issue wouldn’t be as bad if it was just Xbox but you are also affecting the PS version aswell

I think developers need to start just taking advantage of a console and if one of them can’t do X Y and Z then f*** them…why should the others suffer. What’s MS going to do? The bigger the franchise the least chance MS are going to tell them to f*** off. Baulders Gate 3 seemed to have stood their ground and suddenly their “strict” parity rule didn’t really matter. We suddenly got super optimisation efforts for the Series S that got things sorted.

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.
