Thing runs at 30fps on Steam Deck so you should be fine.

Can't wait for 100% PT emulation. I know there are some emu attempts before this, but there are workarounds and bugs with those. While I have kept my PS4 just for PT, it would be good to play in with some improved graphics mods (HDR, higher resolution, etc).
Glad to see Bloodborne making progress for its fans though.

Yeah, this is a remake and not emulation. It's also very obvious right from the start that it's not the real deal. The emu 1.4 version is more closer than this.Unreal P.T. by InvertedEarthTheory

They mention a Bloodborne remake by Bluepoint as a possible alternative, but honestly, I'd rather emulate the original game.

Exactly . Take the current version and run it at 4k 60FPS and it will still look pretty darn good without looking dated . Bluepoint remake wasn't a bad idea , but I don't like some of their changes

Ngl, I'm genuinely shocked that Sony didn't jump on this. It would have made a perfect PS5 Pro launch game.

I don't want a Bluepoint style remake. I want them to either release a proper remaster or a Solid Port with some minor enhancements. Otherwise, fuck off. To Sony, not to you. You're alright. Sony... they're on the Shitlist.

Looks like games running on Unreal Engine work great with ShadPS4. Shad even manages Refantazio's proprietary engine fairly well with minor bugs. But they don't seem to be able to crack the particle nut for Bloodborne yet.

Shadps4 version 0.4.0 released. It's still too early to be practical, but nice nevertheless.

There is nothing to crack. Particles in BB are made with tessellations shaders wich are not yet supported by the emulator.

I just saw what they did to From Software art in DeS remake and would rather hope for an og rerelease

I'm almost losing hope that Sony will port The Last Guardian and Shadow of the Colossus to PC. They prefer to waste time and resources remastering a game that didn't need it.

We need driveclub in-game. Hope shad gets to the leve of yuzu. Even new games run well on yuzu.

Bluepoint isn't making a remake because they're literally not able to. SOTC and DS were made under the direction of Japan Studio, and Team Asobi isn't touching Bloodborne anytime soon (more so because it doesn't fit their image). A Nixxes remaster or an actual remake by From itself are way more likely.

Or is it just one of Phil's balls in my throat?

Hell even Rise of the Ronin would probably do pretty well on PC. It's a better game than most give it credit for.

This looks amazing. Haven't followed the updates much recently, how playable is it?

I think there are still some issues with crashes, vertex explosions, general performance etc, but people have played if from start to finish. I'd check back in a couple weeks/months.

Called it months ago. It will be 100% emulated and 4K/60 fps ready by Christmas.
Mod community doing amazing work.

Looking great! Guess I know what I'll be replaying this Christmas.
It's amazing going back on this very thread and seeing the progress being done so nicely and so fast.

There's been tons of improvements over the weeks with bug fixes for snow, blood splatter, fur and the "rainbow" texture issue and now there's this performance update. It is immaculate and he plays for 14 minutes without a single hitch. 1% low is a tight 59fps the entire time while traversing several areas. It jumps to 77fps during the Rom boss fight, guess it's a quirk of the engine.
More games start booting while Gravity Rush 2 and The Last Guardian start getting in-game

So from what I understand, the devs picked this game as a target to improve the emulator and by doing that, general compatibility and stability increases too, am I right? After BB is perfect (as in, there will be no more issues with this game), will they shift focus to improve some other game? I know it's not specific game fixes/patches/hacks, that wouldn't be good for the accuracy.
When folks like

were saying this game would be rock solid by Christmas, I was a bit skeptical. Happy to eat crow in this regard. I’m not sure I’ve seen an emulator record such progress in such a short time.Spectacular work, all round!

What does this even mean? Of course it’s improving emulation, and running at 60 fps.
Not remember when the first attempts at running BB on higher spec hardware (Faking a PS5 container) revealed that like previous FROM games going above 30fps resulted in problems because some of the logic was linked to frame-rate? Meaning that of its playing properly at 60 it must be using a modified binary.
Which leads to the obvious question if you're modifying those bits of code to get a "better" result, why stop there?
As to the piracy with added steps argument; what else do you call it when the game being emulated is still being sold new, as is the platform its running on?
I also have to say that I couldn't care less about people pirating stuff, what gets on my tits is the dishonest double-speak where its presented as not being what it actually is. You know, the "game preservation" fake-apologists and the like. People who really only want more warez, but don't have the balls to say what they really want directly... usually because they know they'd get push-back if they actually spoke the truth.

Quit the corporate shilling. This has nothing to do with game preservation and no one framed it as such.
This is trying to get a game Sony has been neglecting for years up to modern standards. The corporate assholes will gladly port shit no one asked for like Sackboy to PC and will have a whole ass studio remaster HZD, but for Bloodborne, it’s radio silence. Not even a PS5 update. Fuck-all.
Yet here you are playing the bootlicker and crying about piracy and double-speak when all we fucking want is a modern Bloodborne that Sony won’t give us.

I don't follow the herd. I speak my mind on issues like this and I really don't mind whether people agree or disagree.
so modding games equals piracy now
No, its an entirely separate thing. I cannot believe you misconstrued that interpretation from what I wrote, this seems really bad-faith to me.
My comment was simply that it was irrelevant to improvement in emulation quality. Because if you are modifying the source binary to get an x result, your gains are a result of modding not improvement in emulation!
Also, the main qualitatives of emulation are precision and universality, not performance. Its why HLE solutions have fallen by the wayside even though they will always be more efficient in a coding sense.
Clear I own the game and a PS4. I want to play the game at 60fps on my PC. That's not piracy.
Congrats. How about everyone else? The world doesn't revolve around you and your wants.
The problem is that stuff like this disincentivizes actual official porting, and actual preservation.
I also have a fundamental issue with emulation of software and hardware that is still being actively sold in the marketplace. Its unethical.

Lmao. Sony had almost a decade to port the game and didn't do it. Don't try to put the blame on an emulator.
I doubt anyone here care about what you see or don't see as an issue. That's on you, deal with it.
Why would I care about everyone else? Also, who is everyone else? People butthurt about emulators? I don't care about them.

They have had enough incentives to port that game and they haven't. They haven't even announced they want to do it.
If it's piracy or not depends on the person and their morals. Emulation shouldn't stop because some people are not wiling to pay for it or because Sony thinks it's not the right time for a port.
