Thats awful. Are you telling me that the game's foliage draw distance still looks like this?
They didnt even bother offering a native 4k version. How do you take a year making this, charge $10 for the next gen version and cant offer basic enhancements? Even Days Gone had better foliage draw distance in the PC version.
MLB The SHow also had no discernable upgrades unlike NBA 2k and FIFA which completely redid models, added brand new next gen only modes and EA even went ahead and added frostbite hair. All at launch. Meanwhile Sony's first studios get a 6-8 month lead and couldnt anything more than a minor resolution checkerboard increase and some dual sense support. Bare minimum to say the least.
These studios used to be the cream of the crop a year ago. What has changed? Why is their budget so small that they cant afford next gen enhancements like better LODs, better character models, better hair, ray tracing? They are not hurting. They posted record profits for their gaming division.
This is not a good time to be a Sony fan. Even worse than the early PS3 era. At least PS3 era Sony launched some next gen looking games in the first year with Resistance, Motorstorm, Warhawk, Heavenly Sword, Ratchet, and Uncharted looking absolutely stellar and a league ahead of their last gen titles like God Of War 2. If they want to release mostly cross gen games after Ratchet then fine, give us a reason to upgrade. I am pretty convinced that the TLOU remake is basically going to be TLOU2 instead of looking next gen.
