Remij 4,670 Posted September 10, 2020 Share Posted September 10, 2020 It's gonna be ok.. lmao. Anything possible on Series X and PS5 will be possible on Series S. Just resolution and visuals will take a hit. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Twinblade★ 3,899 Posted September 10, 2020 Share Posted September 10, 2020 developers are going to have to downgrade their games so much for the series S. Its just going to handicap next gen. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

They can scale back textures as well. Game design-wise they should be capable of the same things because the SSD speed is the same as well as the CPU. Some devs are understandably bummed because it means more work.. but it should scale well enough with visual differences alone. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

There will definitely be games that need to be scaled back significantly. The memory would be a huge issue for something like Battlefield. Imagine if they planned on having 100 player battles and maps but then as a result of the Series S they had to scale everything back down and go back to 64 players across all the platforms. This is going to be very problematic. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

This is going to be very problematic. S is way too insignificant overall when there is PS5, X and PC to consider. PS5 will steamroll S even with the price difference, and the XBox crowd that will care about visuals will be on the X. If it was like 70% of the overall console market it would be true, it's not.

Playstation Tablet 1,725 Posted September 10, 2020 Share Posted September 10, 2020 The time I think the S will start to tank is when they PS5 Pro comes out, the system will be laughable by then. I bet if MS didnt have to account for the S, X would probably have an SSD as fast as the PS5. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Ike★ 2,906 Posted September 11, 2020 Share Posted September 11, 2020 It makes you wonder if Japanese developers are even gonna waste resources on Xbox versions next gen. I hope not. Don’t want them held back. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

So unless they start selling two separate versions of the game, Series X is going to be stuck with the assets possible on the Series S version Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Series S will be stuck with lower quality assets. That's it. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
madmaltese★ 2,555 Posted September 11, 2020 Share Posted September 11, 2020 Feels like deja vu lol Already had this argument with ppl going on and on about how cross gen games won't be held back on Series X.....we know how that turned out. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

MS isn't going to allow games that release on X to not be compatible with S, that would make for a huge clusterfuck for consumers. Any X game will need to automatically be compatible with S, and vice versa. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I mean, the ones who say X,Y, and Z are possible on Switch "they just have to downgrade the gfx"... but then they cant seem to understand how this will work Quote Link to post Share on other sites
