Jap ports being bad has been a thing for as long as I can remember. What makes this case unique is the consoles also performing like ass. Look at the OG Dark Souls port for example, the original release of Ys VIII in the west was a shitshow, the Nioh ports all things considered are pretty bad, etc.
Oof don’t remind me of that DS1 PC port, enough to make a grown man yak when down in blight town. Nonetheless, PC was a much smaller percent of the market at the time so I can at least understand why so many ports of the era (Japanese or otherwise) were terrible. Further, many of those listed JP studios were/are smaller when compared to their western counterparts and/or were releasing smaller titles. With that in mind, the fact Capcom fumbled the performance on their golden goose this badly is something I find shocking.
They're aping the western studios in almost every way for game development. If you were to tell me they're headquartered in California instead of Japan, I wouldn't even bother to double check anymore.
Best girl, but Frontier has some cool ones too.
Time really is a flat circle, isn't it? Wilds is going to be a repeat of World and DS1, rough ass launch but modders will swoop in to fix their fucking broken code and DRM.
I'm sure they hated modders before the Naked Chun Li incident, but that seems to have really enraged them.
Mods won't fix shit if the issue is on an engine level, but hopefully the mods working does mean the game can be salvaged later on.
I'm pretty sure what really started to piss them off was people modding in paid DLC costumes etc for World/Rise. That Chun Li incident was the last straw.I'm sure they hated modders before the Naked Chun Li incident, but that seems to have really enraged them.
I remember reading a steam post, forgot what it said exactly but basically it said "imagine the initial embarrassment, now imagine the embarrassment for starting a mod apocalypse for Capcom titles because you were too much of a coomer."I'm sure they hated modders before the Naked Chun Li incident, but that seems to have really enraged them.
They'll improve it, yes, but they can't fix engine problems like @Endless Torment said. They couldn't "fix" engine issues for World, they sure as hell can't fix shit for a game probably more hostile to advanced modding than World. The most world got were performance and general tweaks as well as some utility mods (if we're going by just "fixes"), Rise barely got shit, Wilds won't be different.
Probably because it's significantly easier, a stiff breeze can kill a monster from what I can see. That wizard cat is adorable though.
The weird thing with Rise (From my personal experience, I could be a complete outlier for all I know) is that it only got issues AFTER Capcom forced it's Enigma DRM down player's throats.
I originally ran through Rise on high settings on a 1070 before I upgraded and had little to no frame drops having a video or something open on the other monitor at the same time. Post update, noticeably worse performance on a 3060. It's been years, but I'm tempted to see how my 4070 Super does with their shitty DRM now haha
Wouldn't be surprised. It was made a single Russian dev who somehow managed to convince Capcom that he was a team based on...somewhere not Russia, so optimization is not exactly there even if that solo developer was great as his job. He seemed content to argue with people over all mods being cheats or something so eh. They signed the contract so whether or not they know now doesn't matter too much it seems.
It's not that old, it was this time 2021. Two years of vanilla, two years of Sunbreak(and I don't think alot of people played that long in either since they were so critical of wirebugs n sheeiiit). I suspect they pulled the DRM eventually because it runs painlessly for me on a pretty old card.
It’s a pretty fun weapon. I like autistically launching myself into the air and then slicing monsters midair.
