Have stayed away because of black out. Any good place to buy this for PC?
I got it for quite cheap from a major Steam key reseller, but they still haven't shipped my key. Have used them a few times before without issue, but I'm thinking this will be the last time. I usually just buy directly through Steam or GOG.

It was from a developer interview a while ago, i will try and find it.
They just mentioned dropping the difficulty of each mode and that nightmare mode is similar to survival from the last game.
They mentioned dropping the difficulty so that players who just want to experience the story can easily do so this time around.
Godamn... i wish i could cancel my psn preorder...
27€ on cdkeys, keys in stock.

Don't care about pro support. I have an original ps4
I have Pro and I still dont care about Pro support. As long as the game runs fine then Im happy. It find it strange people willing to cancel their pre-order just because no pro support.

I knew that the Xbox One X version is enhanced, so I only assumed the PS4 one would be as well, I mean why wouldn't it be? Now I find out it is not, and Best Buy just delivered my PS4 copy. I really want to open it, but I might just return it and get the Xbox One version since I am getting an X.

Can't tell if serious.
Maybe, just maybe. Pro support is coming along with the Xbox One X patch when the XOX launches? I think that would make sense if it happens
So this is basically The Last of Silent Hill.
Anyways I wish Seb moved faster, his default movement should be a bit of a jog rather than the painfully slow hunched back awkward walk he does. Perhaps make it so that in presence of unalerted enemies he walks like that but at other times or when enemies are alerted his default movement should be a jog. Keep the sprint as it is.
And his crouch walking should be a bit faster too like Joel from TLoU.
This is a different kind of game than the first so there's no reason for it to have faster movement.

Wow, I never played the original but this game is a lot like The Last of Us?

This intrigues me. I couldn't finish the first game cause it felt so dull, so I'm unsure if I wanna jump into this or not.

Been watching a lot of streams and it looks great but I have some nitpicks. Sebs standard movement just looks painfully slow, it's slower than the first game for some odd reason. The aiming looks off compared to the first game but maybe that's just the people I'm watching.
Also not a huge fan of how close the camera is indoors. Seb takes up a lot of the screen. Same when he's crouched.
Also wish there was a switch shoulder button. Seen a lot of people aiming and turning a left corner and being blind as to what's coming. I know you can say it's survival horror but it's just a pet peave of mine.
Still going to grab it though. I expect some jank after playing the first but this still looks a lot better than the original barring the actual shooting. Popping head shots was super satisfying in the first game. If I'm wrong and anyone wants to alleviate my fears from my observations, please do.

I'm wondering this myself, but that's garbage if true. I would feel even more justified in waiting for a deep sale then

It really is like TLoU and the normal enemies are like critters.
Although I will say, so far the game lacks the surreal style of the first game. I mean the environments are like Silent hill in atmosphere with the misty creepy town with weird shit, but they lack the surrealism that was super common in the first game....atleast so far. I'm still very early in the game.

Yes, that's what they said. Has this game officially gone live on the PS4 though? Otherwise, there's probably going to be a patch within the next twenty-four hours.

Really baffled by everyone in here canceling their preorders over Pro support. Just comes off as petty and elitist to me. It's not like the game isn't going to run on your system at all.
I don't think they ever did. Wasn't that just rumored? It only has to run at 1080p on a Pro at least, I think
Sanctuary

That wasn't a rumor, it was a Sony mandate. They said that after the Pro launched, every game released after had to support it. They also said that it's up to the developer to add support to games that were released prior however. Your resolution requirement isn't a requirement though. It could offer support in other ways such as a higher and more stable frame rate.

My thought exactly. If they care about performance that much why didn't they get in to PC gaming? And according to DigitalFoundry the game runs pretty good even without pro.

I mean, I can see where they're coming from. I was fortunate enough to receive my Pro for free. But, if I shelled out the cash for the Pro I would be a little upset. I mean, they spent a lot of money buying the Pro thinking the games would be receiving graphic/performance benefits and now they're not getting them on certain games.

It's one way for gamers voice to be heard to make sure developers understand not adding it will have a consequence to their bottom dollar.
I'm going to buy it, but I applaud those who take a stand.
Sometimes I think do people actually want the game.

It happens every thread for a new game. It can run perfectly fine and be a great game but if it doesn't offer extras on the pro people go ape shit and throw out hyperbolic one liners. I have a pro by the way so yes I would've liked some extras but fuck cancelling my pre order, I'm dying at work waiting to get home to play this. Keep the impressions coming!
That's a false equivalency, no one is saying they ONLY care about performance. There are other reasons why people like consoles over PC and would still welcome a half-step upgrade for 4K or supersampling, etc.

I'm baffled by people being baffled by it. It is 100% reasonable that someone is upset that the new console they paid for isn't supported, especially by a such a large publisher.
I have a Pro, and I'm not returning my copy, but this absolutely taints my perception of the game and my view on the developers. I'm also incredibly disappointed that Sony doesn't mandate Pro support for any game released at this point. A resolution bump should be the absolute bare minimum and yes, I'm going to call developers Lazy for having no Pro support what so ever, because they are.

Its almost like people bought PS4 Pro consoles to get better performance and resolutions over the base PS4 so when games come out and dont have enhanced features they get annoyed and rightly so.
This shouldn't be baffling at all, and especially not petty or elitist if they simply choose not to buy the game at this point. They're not insulting anyone else who doesn't care about Pro support if they just decide not to buy it themselves if it doesn't have the feature support they want.
Also, the game will surely be cheaper over the holidays, so that makes it easy to defer purchase if they really want it to play it.

Careful, kinda spoilery.
Yeah, exactly. I love the ease and accessibility of Consoles over PC, and am also deeply engrained in the PS4 "ecosystem" now ( I own tons of games, have tons of trophies, have a big friends list, etc.), and I don't want to give all that up by switching to PC. At the same time, I wanted a nice tech/performance upgrade over the base PS4, so I went PRO. However, I am deeply disappointed in any game that skips over offering benefits for my console of choice, and therefore, I will not but this game in order to show these Developers/Publishers that PRO support matters, and if they don't want to offer it, I'll hit 'em where it hurts; their wallets.

You might not buy the game, but that doesn't mean you aren't going to rent it, or borrow it.
