Final Fantasy XVI Leaked Earlier

DO NOT watch the new Yonezu Kenshi video. It is very spoiler heavy. Also if you want the game and live in New York the games store on 84th street in Brooklyn is selling the game and so is the one on 20th I think 84th street is closed. Friend has a copy, I'll wait seeing as collectors is on the way. I was afraid we had seen too much. It looks like we haven't seen anything at all.
I live in NYC. I called both stores they don't have it
 
I really wish they'd lift the embargo and just push the game out when this type of thing happens. It's clearly ready, so why not just say have fun and turn it loose.

I like how we're moving from "digital is better, preload, no waiting, no driving to the store" to "fuck digital if physical stores break release date".
 
Really hope I don't get this spoiled. The demo ending twist has me wondering that a lot of marketing was actually a red herring for what the story would be.
 
But this never happens!
The digital guys said so, they get to play a game before anyone because it quicker to download it then have it delivered or go to the shop.
 
Some guy already uploaded a video from the full game. Its the same performance

well, shit...
I'll say it again fellas, 30fps, on an OLED is no good, this needs a 40fps mode for those with OLED tvs.

I found the demo performance to be absolutely horrible , I'm actually amazed that no big sites reported this and that most people in here are all "it runs fine" - it really, really doesn't, performance mode is absolute dog shite and the quality one also due to it being 30fps which feels feels bad on an OLED.

It's FF15 all over again - a game which had to be played on a mid-gen refresh console as to have it running properly (and even then it had about 3 gfx modes which were all unstable fps wise).

The PS5 Pro can't come soon enough, also, I shouldn't have gotten an OLED, 30fps is playable on a LED, not so much on an OLED though...

quality doesnt feel bad on OLED at all. Motion blur doing its work, altho its a bit overdone

I have to disagree, I find it insufferable friend - and this doesn't have to do with the "60fps master race oh my god 30fps is terrible", 30fps modes on my C2 feel absolutely terrible, if I knew it beforehand I would have opted for a miniLED blooming/vignetting/DSE be damned, I find it unusable for 30fps gaming...

PS: some people with Samsung OLEDs may not perceive it as much/such since Sammy allows you to have motion interpolation enabled even when in gaming picture mode

PS2 : I had no problem whatsoever with 30fps games on my old Panasonic plasma HDTV

Bro, we're all trying to go into XVI with as little information as possible.

Therefore, you can;

Fuck. There will no doubt be some cunts on Youtube who put the fucking spoiler in the title and thumbnail of their damn video.
kunts. I had a Red Dead Redemption 1 spoiler barely after the release when some fucker had SPOILER > A certain character shot dead as a thumbnail! >
 
Not me posting in the 4chan leak thread asking about CG cutscenes out of desperation and then posting a screenshot from my computer where I forgot to crop out the rest of my laptop screen. LMAO 😭

The game just has too much going on to run at 60fps. I am fine with 30fps. I am old school.

Depends on the area though.
Like if you are in a big place with lots of stuff going on at the same time then, sure, framedrops are expected.
But at least the demo has serious frame drops even when you walk around the opening castle area which isn't big, nor is it full of NPC's, nor is there anything particularly complex going on in the background.
It's weird that it can't hold 60fps there given that the graphics aren't anything amazing and they've supposedly been polishing the game for a long time.

It may be a lighting thing. Is the game using raytracing?

I saw some report that supposedly ray traced shadows are enabled in every mode which would be beyond stupid when you "performance" mode is consistently running in the low 40's.
But I don't know if there's any truth to that.
 
Just an update...when I installed the game last night and started playing it said I wasn't on the latest version. The version I was playing was 1.00 so I don't know...they said no day 1 patches so I can't explain that
 
People thinking the full game will suddenly have a massive performance gain are delusional, you really think that would release a demo if it was a far inferior version of the final game?
