How is the frame rate?
PSN always starts preloads the Sunday before release.

Oh so that is confirmed then? Wtf Sony. Not everyone has great Internet. sigh guess I have to give gamestop money now.
They said on twitter they are trying to work with Sony to get it up earlier I believe.

Yeah my CE from amazon doesn't arrive until Wednesday even with 1 day shipping, I'm so tempted to buy it digital so I can play on Monday.
how the framerate? have you noticed any screen tearing?
Are these all from the Prologue? I love how varied the colors in the sky are.
How is it so far?

From what I played only noticed lower framerate in cuteness but I'm not the best one to ask about performance to be honest :/
Same. Not sure why they dont have release date delivery with this, disappointing
I contacted Amazon about it and they said it was due to when they were receiving their stock on the CE (its how I got one day shipping for free).
Vesemir is pretty damn useless! He should at least throw a chicken sandwich at us any time our health drops
Why is Sony so shit at this? Literally the only reason I bought Type-0 physical was because preload just never came for PS4...
I swear if they fuck this one up...

Thank you. I take it that the lowered frame rate in IGC's (cut scenes) really hasn't take away from your enjoyment from actual gameplay. Would this be an accurate assertion?

Where was perma death confirmed in final build?
I thought they confirmed no perma death?
Edit: Just remembered during the twitch stream they swapped difficulty on the fly between just story and death march and continued playing.
LOL that NPC "helping" Geralt is useless. He just walks around while blocking.
Crossbow has looked really hard to aim in every video I've seen of it.
Did they take it out for Death March? All I have heard is that was the mode where if you die, it's over.

IQ is not bad, I'm happy that his hair is not an aliased mess, but the game does look a tad soft in your screens. Seems that the AA method comes with the blur but it does clean the jaggies right out though.
Load times after death could be better. At least it reloads very near the place of death.
I think they got rid of permadeath mode. They recently sounded like it was never part of the plan. Weird, I know

Ah, okay. I never knew they decided against it. I never would have played that mode anyway with perma-death. In a game this big? LOL.
They probably didn't want to be held accountable for the destruction of property that would inevitably happen when someone dies near the end of a 200 hour run.
Hehe
So I'm going to double dip and get this for both PC and PS4 since I'm not sure how well the PC version will run on my system compared to the PS4 (GPU is the limiting factor until I upgrade in the near future). Want to make sure I get the best first run I can. Got the PC version relatively cheap and traded in two PS3 games I'm never going to play again to get the PS4 version for 10 bucks so it's not much of an investment.
Do we know exactly when the embargo will be up?

Ugh, the framerate when he's aiming with the bow :|
I assume nothing about framerate from YouTube videos.
I don't see any problem with that.. slow-mo kicks in but framerate looks to be good

Yes the game runs great, nothing that affect my experience and its really beautiful, screens from the first area and doing sub missions so I don't think I progressed much in the main story haha. sub missions are varied so I really like that I'm not doing the same mission over and over specially after Dragon Age

Yeah, tomorrows reviews will only be of the PS4 version. Hopefully, PC and Xbox versions will have proper reviews before release. Although it still doesnt sound like they been sent to reviewers so who knows.

Ever since playing OoT on N64 I've been waiting for a game that can recapture that feeling. For the first time I feel that there is a game that may do just that; I'm genuinely excited for this game.
