Not at all. this is df take as well Unlocked fps all over the place is never a great experience and this sections with nothing going on. Df talked about in other RE games would be much better if they offered a locked option. Hopefully they offered a locked option for people that want a smoother experience
It's sad if this is the best you can reply.

Something very curious going on here.
www.pcgamer.com
The ROG Ally, which is more powerful than the Steam Deck btw, completely shits the bed in the game. Even at 720p lowest settings with FSR upscaling(!) it is completely unplayable at framerates in the super low teens. Yet, Switch 2 handles it well at 60 FPS with some drops.
Either this is the craziest optimization that has ever optimized, or something else is going on. Perhaps the Lowest settings are far above Switch 2 settings? But that wouldn't make much sense in terms of scalability.
I've tested Resident Evil Requiem on PCs from a handheld and laptop, to an RTX 5090 monster
And it's good news all round. Except for one of them.

RT cores, according to some reviews the Switch 2 port uses the Raytracing capabilities of the hardware.Something very curious going on here.

Probably for some reflections, but looks like the game was built around RT.

I can't see the performance on that site currently but why would it be a problem when reports are saying it's ok on steam deck

I absolutely get if someone is a Nintendo fan only, so there's nothing else to compare it to, obviously, you will get the Switch version no matter what. But I remember when I had Switch 1 and all these rave reviews for Doom 2016 and Wolfenstein on it. Yeah, they "ran" but even in handheld mode on that tiny screen, it looked muddy like ass, i mean it was blur bonanza. Just because a game can run on a system doesn't always mean it should.

that's how handhelds worked since the dawn of time tho.
Mortal Kombat on GameBoy was an insane shit show... (the second one was kinda decent tho), or even SMB Deluxe on GBC was very compromised due to the resolution difference meaning you couldn't see shit.
Doom on GBA was also far from perfect, and then there were really ambitious but ultimately awful ports like Driver 2 on GBA as well.
at least nowadays the compromises aren't as massive anymore as they often were back then.

People should be happy, for once, that a new AAA game is available for all to enjoy, but instead we have platform warring, even at the best of times (for the game).

i watched a video of the switch 2 version earlier and I was impressed. Its great every one can play it where they want.

Sadly, some people just can't accept the fact that a Nintendo hybrid console is having this kind of results. I am double dipping, PC and Switch 2.

Yeah.
I don't want to sell It, I want a reason to buy It as a boxed item and GKC don't do It for me.

Feel exactly the same. I'll still get them, but wait for 5 dollars and pop or so as opposed to much sooner if real physical versions had existed.

Eeew... why would you do that to yourself? Imagine playing third party games exclusively on the Switch 2 *runs for barfing bag*

If you think that shit looks good you are in dire need of glasses.60 fps on a AAA game that is releasing day-and-date with PS5, Xbox and PC.
Oh boy the salt is salty with this one.
p.s hair looks good too.

WTF is that, little victimhood play here? Why would it not be compared at least a dozen times and by DF like almost every single switch 2 games that are pushing the envelope
But nice little concern trolling before with you just want peoples to best experience this masterpiece
So never play games on consoles, always PC

It's not even about being impressed my dude i'm watching footage and it looks like a game being streamed and 40-50fps with out VRR feels like shit.
someone said it was the best handheld version and i said no one compared them yet and most likely will not be the best handheld version.

Just keep bellowing. I'm sure you're single-handedly slowing down Switch 2 sales.

Why no 40fps mode, dum dums?
Yup 30fps or 40fps mode would make this much better but capcom doesn't know how to do that for some odd reason.

i don't think he wants to slow down sales... he wants you to buy it and then feel bad

You seriously think people with a PS5 or a decent PC are going to buy this for the Switch 2 just to 'experience this masterpiece properly'?
If they do, they're probably already aware of the Switch 2's limitations.
You're just here pushing your agenda and poisoning another thread

Does the dock supports 120Hz output? The day Nintendo fixes the dock it's going to be a glorious console.

I'm like 99% handheld player, but I believe it does. iirc it was something to do with VRR that was the issue.

Fantastic result.
Nintendo should bring back the seal of quality.
