So apprantly the new sony exclusive forspoken only runs at 720p 30fps (dipping into 20s) on the PS5. Looking at the minimum requirements for the PC version, to run the game at 720p 30fps will require a GTX 1060 6gb or RX 5550 XT 8gb card and 16gb of ram.
That's unbelievable. It must be a seriously bloated piece of shit to only run at 720p30 on a PS5. Those PC recommended requirements are outrageous, too:
Forspoken follows the journey of Frey, a young New Yorker transported to the beautiful and cruel land of Athia. In search of a way home, Frey must use her newfound magical abilities to traverse sprawling landscapes and battle monstrous creatures.

SYSTEM REQUIREMENTS
MINIMUM:
Requires a 64-bit processor and operating system
OS: Windows® 10 64-bit (After November 2019 Update) or Windows® 11 64-bit
Processor: AMD Ryzen™ 5 1600 (3.7GHz or better) / Intel® Core™ i7-3770 (3.7GHz or better)
I think that's the first time I've ever seen over 16gb RAM in a game's recommended requirements. And the recommended requirements still target 30fps, lol, lmao even. Do you need a NASA supercomputer to pull off 4k60? All of this power for their stupid Amerimutt ESG score booster game that'll be forgotten before spring.
There are entire RPGs out there that fit into less than a megabyte, but Forspoken is gonna have totally uncompressed raw audio recordings of the protagonist dramatically grunting for when she's climbing up a cliff, and that quarter-second long "UNGH!!!" sound effect alone is going to weigh in at 120mb
This is the same company that brought back the valkyrie series only to permanently bury it and mindbroke a /v/ retard so much he's still sperging out 10 years later
Don't expect anything
Also: The Resistance games are mediocre at best, like Singularity without fun gimmicks. PS3 Ratchet games are also mediocre as fuck with idiotic "Ratchet is da chosen one!" shit. Ratchet as a whole is a case of an imitator being better than it's inspiration though since Metal Arms was Ratchet but better.
Some of the weapons were fun but way too many of them had alt fire modes that were just "neat" and never really needed to be used like the Bullseye. The Auger was cool. I remember 2 completely destroyed the feel of alot of weapons. The AR and shotgun especially.

gotta hear it in 4k uhd thx sound quality, i honestly believe that the bad optimization will be mostly because of videos in different languages, destiny2 had such a issue because all of it's extra language videos had to be bundled together, it's not like the fucks can be assed to make a server or something to host the fuckhuge files separately or that the engine can handle it either.

Welp, I've not known much about Forspoken, but this thread made me watch a 10 min gameplay trailer. So Sony's first big (80 bucks) next gen game is a Ubisoft Open World Game clone with a hood kid with ATTITUDE!
Heh
what, the valkyrie chronicles from ps2? shit i need contexto.

Say what you will about Nintendo’s cartridge-based file size limitations, but it’s nice when they release alternate languages as a separate download instead of requiring the 90%+ of players who only care about their native language to deal with the wasted space.
Honestly, it felt like you could get more out of the Wii U’s 32GB hard drive than you could out of the PS4/XB1’s 1/2 terabyte drives as long as you didn’t download most of your retail games.
There is apparently a new method meant to deter the still ongoing PS5 scalping in Japan, by putting a big sticker on the box and cut it after purchase. Although I have no idea how this is going to remotely stop online resales.

I am impressed by Monolith soft's mastery of Nintendo's hardware, for three generations they have released massive 100 hours open world JRPGs that all fit on a single disc (or cartridge, 12gb one at that). The fact Xenoblade 3 even runs on the Switch is downright black magic (even with the resolution issues, I never had any framerate issues). The fact Xenoblade X runs on the Wii U, on a single disc (I know you can download files for faster loading, but that is just because of disc read speeds), not even a Bluray disc, at a constant and solid 30fps at 720p is incredible. I really believe they are the reason BotW even exists.
off topic I know, but I need to dick suck Monolith soft every now and then

It’s nice to see that they care about shoplifting being a problem when it comes to stealing a console that has no games besides Yakuza: Like A Dragon and Elden Ring.
I'm seeing some PS players petitioning that Sony removes multiplayer trophies from the Platinum trophy requirement.
I actually agree with that. I believe Steam separates single player completion from multiplayer completion. It doesn't help that Sony is trigger-happy with axing their first-party servers for several of their IPs. Killzone, Resistance, R&C, Singstar, SOCOM, etc.
