I didn't see a current thread or OT for this game, so I figured I'd just post here. Picked this up on PSN (PS4) last night, and while I do like it, especially with the course creator which ensures you'll never run out of courses, I find the visuals to be pretty damn bad. It just looks unfinished. It gives you the option to enable or disable v-sinc, but it seems to have little effect on the overall presentation. V-sinc on looks just as bad as with it off. It was on $34.99 and I think that's close to the right price, but I do feel a little let down just because the graphics are so mediocre. I don't know how to describe them - they just seem to have either low count polys or something. The trees in particular have a weird shimmer effect when it pans around or when it does the hole previews. I'm probably not describing it well, all I know is it looks pretty underwhelming and not something I'd expect to see on the PS4.
There are also odd little things that have me scratching my head. Like sometimes other people's ghost data and their shots show up while you're playing. But most of the time they don't. (edit: I have since figured out why that was happening, it's not a glitch.) There are also small UI things which are weird, like not being able to change your aim or trajectory's path while you're looking at the course from above. You can only change your aim from the "at the tee" view, then go back up to the overhead, back to the tee, adjust, back to the overhead, etc.
I like The Golf Club, but it seems like it could have used another 6 months in the oven. Sony didn't start releasing early access games on PS4 without my knowledge, did they?
