This and F1 24 are day one msst haves for me on PS5 Pro.

When people complain about Unreal Engine 4 I always use this game as an example that the engine is not the issue. The skill of the developer is the main culprit, always.

What does this have to do with UE4?

 

[Rhazer Fusion]

Substantially better? Nah, I doubt it. If there is a substantial improvement, it’s probably worth the $700-$800.

This game runs on Bluepoint's in-house engine. Not UE4.

Holy shit. My mistake then. I could've swear they used UE4 for that game

imagine buying PS5 pro for F1 24. ...

 

[PandaOk]

imagine buying PS5 pro for F1 24. ...

Isn’t it one of the biggest upgrades on the pro, or is this more a comment on the hardcore community residing on PC?

 

[Stu_Hart]

This is not enough to spend $700+ on the ps5 pro. The game already looks phenomenal on the base ps5. If I were to spend $700, I want to see games where the base ps5 struggles, and the pro handles it like a champ with no issues.

What's the problem??? It's a bigger upgrade than in Gran Turismo 7.

 

[darrylgorn]

Honestly, this is the only other souls type I'm curious to try.

I think the original has a performance mode at 60fps, so I wonder if that's holding the framerate for this version.

 

[Freeman76]

It looks exactly the same unless you zoom in 400%. Pointless upgrade since Demon's Souls already looked and played fantastic on base PS5.

100% this, DF are up Sonys arse you'd have to be mad to believe this console is worth the money they are asking for it

Up Sony's arse or simply having new content with a new console?

 

[TehGoomba7s]

So do GPU upgrades yet people still do them every year.

 

[diffusionx]

The bullshit machine over this console is in full motion

We’re going to see an awful lot of ‘ITZ SO MUCH BETTA! type articles.

And then when it comes out:

I have a PS5 Pro preordered but this is true. This stuff is ridiculous and I assume Sony is “working with” sites to get these articles out.

Tjis is one of those features that is buried in a pc graphic settings menu and you turn it on or off and don’t notice any difference lol.

 

[Shake Your Rump]

The PS5 pro hate boner is strong on GAF, lol.

Well, Sony is trying to sell me a system that costs $1200 CAD to get essentially what I already have in my PS5, but with AI upscaling. There is going to be some disappointment.

We went from PS4 1080p to PS4 Pro 4K checkerboard for a measly $100 upgrade. The cost of going from my launch PS5 to the PS5 Pro with optical and stand is roughly $500 more.

 

[March Climber]

Steam.

Version.

When.

 

[DaleinCalgary]

So who did the work

 

[drotahorror]

Still one of the best looking games this gen.

Crazy how some of the best looking games come out early in the gen. Driveclub, The Order 1886, to name a couple.

Demons Souls remake is definitely one of the best looking games I've ever played.

 

[Crayon]

Pro reminded everyone that regular old ps5 hardware is pretty good.

 

[mrqs]

Super excited for my Pro to arrive.

 

[S0ULZB0URNE]

Making the best looking game look better?

Umbasa

 

[thatJohann]

PS5 Pro is a pixel peeping machine cause that’s all I hear about. I need to see frame rate comparisons already.

If you listen to their DF interview when DS was released they underline how they wanted this title to be a benchmark for devs to beat. I don’t think many did, at least in image quality/geometry/performance stability.

The tech experts at Digital Foundry recently had the chance to check out the game running on Sony's soon-to-be-released mid-generation system. They revealed that it features a new Pro display mode that runs at what seems like 4K resolution and 60 FPS. The image looks very detailed but a little soft, but it's not clear if this is due to PSSR upscaling or anything else, as Digital Foundry could not confirm any details regarding the resolution.



What was confirmed, however, is that Demon's Souls on PlayStation 5 Pro features a new visual feature, a new contact shadow system. This system is similar to the screen space shadows system employed on base PlayStation 5, which is mostly noticeable in areas with rocks, but shows more fine shadow details that look quite good. Despite the lack of anything else, which is unsurprising considering the game will be four years old at the time the PS5 Pro launches, Digital Foundry has no doubt that Demon's Souls looks substantially better on the upcoming console.

Demon's Souls Looks Substantially Better on PlayStation 5 Pro; New Visual Feature Confirmed

One of the best looking games released in the current console generation, Demon's Souls, looks substantially better on PlayStation 5 Pro

wccftech.com

It looked and still looks incredible as is…One of the best looking games ever released.
Slightly different shadows is not substantial at all, but that pretty much reinforces how good it looked already so eh.

 

[nial]

I still can't believe we got a Demon's Souls remake. With it also being SIE Japan Studio's last developed (retail) game, it just has a special place in my heart.

 

[Chiggs]

The tech experts at Digital Foundry

Ah, yes...those venerable "tech experts" at Digital Foundry with their years and years of game development experience.

 

[vkbest]

Imagine being a 30fps fanboy retard and complaining about those 60fps modes because lower resolution in those threads and then coming here to say you need 4x zoom thing to realize the differences between pro and older 4k modes

 

[cyberheater]

I think I have this game with my recent PSN+ subscription. Is it ridiculously hard to play or is it manageable?

 

[LimanimaPT]

This game already looks stellar on an amateur ps5.

 

[HeWhoWalks]

Wow! Better shadows!! Amazing!

Remember when system upgrades were “that two dimensional game is now in three dimensions.”

Diminishing returns indeed.

Yeah, when said systems were GENERATIONS apart. Let me know how all of those mid-gen upgrades were in the 90s.

 

[CloudShiner]

Why are all the PS5 and Series X owners who are not buying this console getting so salty at being the new Series S category of users?

It's just how it is, the same way Pro users are gonna be worse experience compared to the high end PC's.

Pick royal class and use the long range spell until you get a proper weapon.

I find it way easier than Dark Souls. The fire demon boss is BS but that’s for what summoning friends is for.

Just because they’re offering you something doesn’t mean you have to bite.

Words almost half this forum doesn't mean to understand.

 

[James Sawyer Ford]

Very good showcase of PSSR, the game looks pristine in 4K.
