Switch and Steam Deck are a bit disappointing but otherwise all ports are as you would expect.

Why do you say that?
Just a joke based on the title.
I'm surprised DF is covering this game, it fantastic stylish art direction but it still essentially PS3 game.
I'm still wondering why they never bother cover Sakura Wars on PS4, its pretty looking game.
Is the Switch version worth $60 if I've never played it?They clearly heavily prioritized a rock solid stable 30fps for Switch version (at cost of resolution). Thankfully it's serviceable, if a bit "soft" visually, in both docked and undocked. Great Port overall

Considering it's a 100hr + game and is portable? Absolutely

Also no uncapped vrr support on ps5 and series xConsole|3D Resolution|UI Resolution| Performance
Switch | 810p/540p | 1080p/720p | 30fps
As a Switch owner:
The other question is why they didn’t offer vrr uncap framerate support on the ps5 and series x
I watched this earlier and his gripe on Steam Deck black levels vs lower res and 30FPS switch version made absolute 0 sense to me, yes OLED had much better blacks vs IPS but is it a reason to chose that display version with lower resolution and FPS?
Seeing these numbers really makes me wish they had figured out some means of cross-save between consoles. The portability of the Switch version is a strong reason to want that version, which is why I bought it on there, but I didn't know that these numbers would be so low on Switch. You'd think it could push at least native resolution for the platform.

Keep in mind switch is 1/3rd of xbox one gpu wise, cpu much worse too, we can see its literally barely above ps3 specs wise, well below last gen stationary consoles, ninny is selling tons of switches ofc, and good for them/industry as a whole, but if MS manage to sell 4tf gpu 8c16t zen2 cpu xss for 300$ 2 years ago, u would hope ninny had at least ballpark of that specs machine now, in 2022- unfortunately big nopes on that =/

Agreed, porting down is never quite the same as a game designed for the HW and it is not easy to do without not screwing the users on that HW. Had the game been using Switch as target platform and been ported up to PS4/PS5 it would have pushed the Switch further for sure.
the Switch has more GPU power than a PS3 even in portable mode, and about 1.8x the GPU power in Docked mode (not taking architectural improvements into account which also come into play)
yet the PS3 runs it at 720p
not a great port whatsoever. what happened here is clearly just a PS4 game reduced in settings to function somewhat passable on the Switch, instead of a game that's actually adjusted to work as good as possible on it.
the PS3 version is proof of that as are Atlus' other games on Switch.
I wouldn't give them an easy pass here just because it's not terrible...
one should expect better ports than that on the best selling console by a long shot. you should expect them to adjust the game to run at the Switch's native resolution, given the pinsharp look the game is going for, which it should have no issue doing on the Switch at all if it wasn't for the fact that they clearly just reduced settings of a version of the game that was originally designed for a console that is more than 4x as powerful,
instead of tailoring it to the hardware by drawing from the original version that was designed for a console that is on the same level of performance as the Switch's Portable mode.
it's happening just way too often with the Switch that ports come out that just slap lower settings on the game and reduce resolution down until they hit 30fps, which often looks just half-baked and cheap.
the worst about all of this of course is that people then start calling some of those cheaply slapped together ports "impossible ports", when anyone that's ever watched a video by Low Spec Gamer knows is complete bullshit as Doom 2016 runs absolutely exactly the way you would expect it to run on Switch equivalent PC hardware.. in fact I myself did that experiment on my old cheap 500€ Laptop that's on paper less powerful than the Switch and ran the game exactly like the Switch does... crazy I know
I think on the best selling console in recent history, which has a real chance to become one of the top 3 best selling system of all time, we should expect more in-depth porting efforts than "slap 480p30 at ultra low settings on and ship it"
wow, that became a real rant... sometimes I just can't stop myself

I
they enabled 120fps support on pc so i was saying its very dissapointing they didnt do the same on console and set the framerate cap to 120 if your using vrr cause the consoles can clearly do way more than 60 right now
df complains about persona character designs?
That is what I am asking, yes.
Interesting
I played roughly 20 hours of my 120 hours PC playthrough on a Steam Deck and it's DEFINITELY capable to keep 60 fps all the times.
What a moronic take.
Didn't even realise he was running it at 1080p on the 800p Deck, lol, quality video right there, apparently its not black enough either.
