Oh boy😂 DF on Black Myth (PS5): “Too many technical problems”, “a mess”, “worst 30 fps cap ever seen”, “looks quite bad”, “no VRR or HDR support”, “bad latency”, “stutters”… it goes on and on. TCHBFR!

[Long Ball Larry 1,359]

- "One of the strangest game technically"

- 3 modes: Performance, Quality, Balance
- Outside of resolution, not much difference other than shadow cascades
- Lumen GI looks a bit more refined in Quality

- Game leans a lot on FSR

- Quality, DRS 1296p to 1584p. Uses FSR image up-scaling
- Doesn't look bad in stills but quite bad in motion
- Aliasing in motion not handled well, alpha textures like fur are 'a mess'
- Post processing has dithering that doesn't look good

- Balance mode is mostly the same but runs at 1080p

- Performance mode has added sharpening applied to the image
- Also runs at 1080p with possible DRS, but sharpening makes the image quality look very 'fried'
- Performance mode also uses frame generation with lots of visible artifacts
- Seems to be using frame generation / interpolation from 30 to 60 just for Performance mode

- Performance mode mostly achieves 60 FPS in traversal, with minor traversal stuttering
- But during combat, it drops frames to 40's, for one tested boss fight, frame gen is dropped in Performance mode and it runs at a consistent 40~ fps
- Latency is a big issue. Input response of a 30 FPS game with a frame-gen image of a 60.

- Balanced mode has better input latency
- Minor traversal stutter, targets 45 FPS

- Quality mode has 'the worst 30 fps cap' Oliver has ever seen, if it's meant to be a cap.
- Hovers between 31 and 36 FPS with 38 seen the highest
- It can also dip to 20's during combat

- The game does not have 120hz or native VRR support, only the forced system level one
- Quality and Balance mode do not benefit as they are both below the PS5's 48hz VRR cap

- The final stretch of the video is comparing the game with PC to show all the things PC does at max that are missing on the console.
- eg particles, lower texture quality, geometry pop-in, lighting differences, lack of VSM, shadow quality

- DF's conclusion is that they think the game has a long patching path forward, and that this is clearly a PC-first project.
- The games facial animations in all the cut-scenes are mo-capped for chinese audio
- The game's black colors are never truly black and there is no HDR support

Still way better than the 0fps on ShitBox. Stop pretending to be a PC gamer Cuckstz. You’re still on the ShitBox platform with no access to this game

It runs at 45fps LMFAO. It will always judder

 

 

PS5’s half baked VRR strikes again

Lmao damn ps5 fucking sucks

So what does that mean for Xbox? Less than poor?

[JonDnD 3,001]

Creating lemmings because ps5 is trash and has no 1p games 

[TLHBO 2,295]

Damn, no  wonder there is no Xbox version in sight. The underperforming Series consoles must be choking on this.

[bhytre 2,810]

Consoles getting cucked as usual, PS5 by getting the tard version and Xflop by getting no version

[Long Ball Larry 1,359]

I’d rather have NO version than a broken version. Imagine spending money on this trash holy shit LMAO

They have no version either. None of them ever planned on buying this

I’m waiting for any impressions… there are none.

[JonDnD 3,001]

And there won't be 

[DynamiteCop 2,149]

Retards around here and elsewhere think that the PlayStation 5 Pro is magically going to fix the issue at the core of this problem. If that stupid console even exists it's going to have the same CPU that's in the PlayStation 5, and it's already bottlenecking even when low resolutions are forced.

 

Drop these stupid ass consoles and just get a PC, it's getting embarrassing at this point.
