The graphics are very nice. I would say the game is a looker. Maybe not technically tlou2 but good looking.
Do not believe bad, poor selected screenshots. I’ve posted real demo shots few pages back
not tlou2 eh. tlou2 run at 1440p-like resolution with a locked 30 fps on a super old archaic GCN 3 GPU chip that tops out at 4.2 tflops with 2.2 jag cores (enormously low IPC) and an accompanying 5400 RPM harddisk and only 8 gb of available memory budget [also, Tlou part 2 on PS4 ALSO looked better than this despite being at 1080p)
this game runs around average of 1300p like resolution at 30 fps target on an improved RDNA2 10 tflops GPU core combined powerful ryzen cores with super high speed tech SSD and 16 GB of total memory, all while being completely free of "lastgen" consoles, so the game in question is completely designed around the said nextgen consoles' featureset, since it must rely on its features to be nextgen exclusive
it literally
WASTES multiple times of resources compared to the LIKES of tlou2 (there are COUNTLESS lastgen titles that look WAY better than this one). it is impossible to understand your stance on this.
you tout about how consoles are superior when it comes to managing resources and how they get more performance and optimal graphics quality ouf ot them. this game literally trashes that single most important aspect of consoles: yet you're simply okay with it? WOW man. just WOW.
what technicality are you talking about? CONSOLE games must adhere to certain standards. THANKS to those standards, gow/tlou2 and likes run at respectable 1080p/30 FPS standard on a base PS4. some already considers this super funny (PC people most likely) but at least it was a standard, albeit a low standard for some, while being a okay standard for others (like me)
LIKE it or not, NATIVE 4K 30 FPS and 60 FPS modes with 1200-1440p upscaled to 4K SHOULD BE A STANDARD. on these consoles.
RDR 2 could run native 4K 60 FPS on a PS5 or a SERIES X. never forget that. Rockstar is not giving this update purposefully so that people cannot use their game as a solid argument to moan about other games that look much worse than RDR2 while hurdling around 1200p to hit 60 FPS, such as AC Valhalla and more. they're doing other game developers a favor by not letting RDR2 run rampant on those nextgen consoles.
if everyone were to think like you; we would have RDR2/TLOU2 looking like a minor improvement over RDR1/TLOU1 while being 900p 30 FPS on a PS4 pro. this is quite literally what happens here with Forspoken. (and of course, 400p 30 fps on base ps4. But yeah, "hurr durr so much technicality people just enjor ur games. let them optimize it for 400p, who cares, you are not gamers"
