Watching the stream and good lord the rain looks horrendous in motion.

Not really, uses about 1.5gb VRAM for me, 2gb seems plenty enough
In Square Enix's defense, this situations isn't nearly as objectionable as a lot of the crap that people put up with from publishers/developers nowadays. There's no massive downgrade. There aren't huge features that are completely broken for most/all of the users. There's just several technical issues.
"Never attribute to malice that which is adequately explained by stupidity."
Hope they fix things up!
EDIT: Would those who are getting consistent 60 FPS mind posting info about their setups? You must all have something in common.
That's why there is a soft IQ with it enabled
Tell me the hashes then I don't need to do it
I'll implement multi-hashing.
Oh, and borderless FS forcing with GeDoSaTo works in FF13-2 now (and probably lots of other games where it caused crashes, was a stupid bug).
Hahaha well sods law I've lost the one I had for the Cinematic Events clearing out the 50 or so set of logs and tmp directories but here's the rest.
- Field - 94108431
- Live Trigger - 450d7e1a
- Battle - 1329c9bf
I'll start up a new save and grab the hash for Cinematic Events in a sec.

Same area. It's a GeDoSaTo hudless screenshot. It takes them at full res, which in this case was 4k. The 1st shot was when I was trying to get downsampling working like the first game. GDST works, you can see the popup, but it doesn't downsample when set to 720p like XIII.
i7 4770k, Titan Black. It's the engine, plain and simple.
I can only get 60fps at 1080p now. I think the recent update actually increase the graphics quality. I used to be able to hit 60fps here most of the time at 4k, but now its mostly 30 with the same settings.
Enemies glow yellow when you select them for an attack, you just can't see the pointer 'cause the hud's gone.

Wondering, are there any problem-free Japanese PC games that are not 2D Indie titles? I guess MGS5 will be pretty snappy.

Sorry I will stick to Please be Excited or Please Understand or Disasterrific in the future.
Since Serah is the best though, that's like 10000000/10 easily.
Kojima's obsession with Polish is remarkable.
He also did some of the best HD collections.

The Ghostlight titles are pretty great ports..
Dark Souls 2?
I'll try to post some screens, video, and my specs when I get home from work in 9 hours.
sorry brah, but the only thing good to come out of Serah is her theme
But I can also credit that to lord hamauzu
Ever? The Last Remnant runs great with lots of options. Binary Domain is great, too.
Last Remnant is UE3, ain't it? I don't think I've seen a bad UE3 port on PC.
Binary Domain (and Valk Chron) have Sega's PC port house to thank, IIRC. Which aren't Japanese. Just from a Japanese publisher.
The true test will be Metal Gear Solid 5/Ground Zeroes next week and seeing if Kojima heard the backlash over locked resolutions from Revengence (which wasn't really his fault, but Platinums).
I want to say Valkyria Chronicles but my OCD won't let me with the 60fps physics issues.
(it's an otherwise absolutely phenomenal port)

I had a few occurrences when I actually capped it to 30 that it would find a way to drop below 30 and into the 20s but did not drop below 30 if I left it to its own fluctuating mess. Did you leave yours uncapped? Were you using borderless window (which I usually prefer) the entire time, because I wasn't. Is borderless window an option now on the latest GeDoSaTo and does it work with the new update with XIII? I want to be able to play these games but the fluctuations even when attempting to cap were really bothering me.
I'm using borderless FS with an as-yet-unreleased version of GeDoSaTo. No framecapping.

1329c9bf is the same PSHash as for FF13. Which means the pixel shader code is literally the same.
Hmm, 1329c9bf is what I found for the field UI.

Sorry, but I'm not going to be grateful when Square (should've) heard the backlash over 13's poor port and CONTINUED to produce a poor port with 13-2. That's just a stupid move. They could've delayed and worked on it, but nope. And spoiler: I'm going to say the same shit happens with FF13-3.

It's an old game. It's also a PC game. I think it's also digital only. It should cost less. A lot less.
Advertising it as 60 FPS when it's not 60 FPS? Right after the last game was also advertised as being 60 FPS? Then they said they'll improve on the issues the game had and didn't and now we have the sequel more than two months later with the same issues which remain in the first game?
I can't agree that 'grateful' is an appropriate word.
C'mon, 4k support was announced a long time ago and they even showed the graphical settings window a few days ago with a weird resolution 3000x2000 something.
Hey, watch it with the spoilers!
Just tried 16xMSAA and can confirm it runs better lol. I don't know what to say.
I'm not sure why 2xMSAA runs worse than 16xMSAA. I just never had a video card good enough to study anti aliasing.
Is it because of a better hardware support/optimization?
You're a hater. No, seriously, you're a hater. It's not healthy to hate.
Gameplay wise it's a lot better than XIII IMO. I think XIII's story is superior outside of a few major points of XIII-2 though.
Waifu wars, ignite!
I really hope there is a performance patch for these games down the line. Even if it has to be fan made.

Thanks for the response. I will probably try again if that feature ever gets released to the public or I can find another solution.

Why does this game look so pixelated =\
1329c9bf (which is also what you used in XIII) I've found get's the vast majority of the UI but still leaves some subtitle elements, the loading orb in the top left and I think a few other bits. Just going through each one by one again to make sure I'm not missing anything or being silly. Still if anything I've got a greater appreciation of just a tiny bit of the work you have to put into to this now even if I am tearing my hair out
Edit: Just seen your edit. Ohhhhhh, I think I know what that means.
Some people say 1 hater = 10 fans
What are you talking about? I'm not sure I get what you're saying.

The problem is that SE could have easily taken this to so many studios and it would've been one of the best ports ever (I'm pretty sure they could get even Avalanche to do it if they wanted it). Or heck, just call up the people from FFXIV for a couple of weeks.
Didn't Revengeance came out pretty bad and then a patch fixed it or something like that?
Not trying to defend the port, but advertising a 30+FPS game as 60FPS is not a new thing or a SE thing, does it hit 60fps? Is it always above 30? One of the features is 60FPS.
The fact "You should be grateful SE ported this on PC", their pricing policies and they awful ports
Well we (some of us anyway) believe that they ported the games because of their DiveIn service.
Some people are saying "Bad port > No port at all" and honestly I agree with them. At least some people can play the games at 60fps.
Are you saying that the price is too high for bad ports like these? Well if that's the case I agree with you.

This game manages to perform worse and look worse then FFXIII for me. Amazing.
Yes, but FF13/13-2's port shows that performance is the true test of porting beyond resolution options.
I have 60fps.
It's impossible to account for every single PC configuration out there though.
I only played for an hour or so before work, but all the costume DLC was accessible the second I could control Serah.
Like I mentioned, I only played a little bit before work. I didn't get Crux access yet to check for the rest :/
Hopefully that shit gets fixed though. I wanna do the Ultros fight again lol

That's exactly how it was on the consoles. The game itself is better but it looks and performs worse. FF13-3 continues this trend (except Dead Dunes <3).
I can't remember if it was the DL or install size, but I remember the numbers 27GB and 18GB. Definitely no more than 30.
Hopefully someone can clarify for you though.
