FMVs sure but in engine cutscenes should be 60fps. There's no excuse.

A friend just pointed this short to me after I told me my impression of the demo:
I'd say it's uncanningly on point.

Yeah, pretty much my experience with the demo.

I pray that someone releases a mod that unlocks Hard Mode from the onset.

Looks like you can do a quick fix through the config file, still some post processing effects left behind that aren't relative to aspect ratio though. (Namely screen blur, UI elements, and UI effecrs)

Fix for ultra wide and 30fps cap. Haven't tried it myself.
This is a fix for Final Fantasy XVI that adds ultrawide/narrow display support and more.
Currently this fix only supports the DEMO version.
Features
General
- Disable 30FPS cap in cutscenes/photo mode.
- Adjust gameplay FOV.
Ultrawide/Narrower
- Remove pillarboxing/letterboxing in borderless/fullscreen.
- Fixed HUD scaling.
- Fixed FOV scaling at <16:9.

How big is the demo outright when installed?
Debating whether I want to bother with the demo or just wait for the full version.

LOL, the game does not have Ray Tracing.
As for the mod that removes the 30fps lock from the in-engine cut-scenes, it works and it makes the game feel WAY better.

I finished the demo. This game is a lot of fun. I didn't like FF15 but this one gets going much faster for me. Far more linear but I'm down.
Glad they're dropping a demo with a carry over save, fixing performance in the meantime, then later dropping the full game. Super cool.

There are multiple open zones later on, but I'd say they are more wide linear map design if anything.

It does NOT. Back then, John thought the shadows were RT Shadows. They are not. And since then, he went on to record to say that he was wrong and that the game doesn't have Ray Tracing. Not only that but there are no Ray Tracing options in both PS5 and PC.
Oh, and since I've also spoken with NVIDIA, I can tell you there are no plans at all (at least right now) to add any Ray Tracing effects in FF XVI.

I'm retarded?
It also pulls a game of thrones where the first hours it tries to be a very mature game with side boobs and whatnot just to bait ppl in and then it throws all dat shit away and goes back to being a childish game. The boss fights are the highlight of the game so if that is all you care, then I do recommend it. If you care about 80% of the rest of the game, its not very good and the side quests are one of the worst in gaming not just franchise.

It's smooth as butter on my 4080 but the drop to 30FPS in cut scenes is pretty jarring, not seeing the stutter everyone's talking about, it did shader comp at startup pretty quickly on my 13700k

do not tempt fate do not contrain Wonder Woman's thighs do not do not
So its probably the full game at release it will just let us go forward???
If you cleared the demo its not an annoying place where it stops is it?

It's worse, now every game factors DLSS or FSR or other image reconstruction and frame generation techniques to hit what should be aiming to be the standard and enhanced with those. These past few years have nightmarish for PC gaming performance-wise because of how wild results can get. Plus, many devs are just lazy in their implementation. I hate this tbh.

There is already a mod to unlock the cutscenes.

I think it ends just after a boss fight. It's out next month though if you want to wait.

That's good news because I found DLSS (quality) to be really blurry even with the sharpening at 10.Update for demo was released

As a result I used FSR3 and Frame Generation with a 3080 12gb and got 100-110 on average in the first section, then in the swamps 80-90 fps.
The image quality was nuts (compared to PS5 of course). We can really see how next gen the game was here (aside from lighting which is really good but not mind blowing due to the tech used ofc).

Is the mod still needed to unlock framerates in cutscenes or has that been patched by Square? Going to finally dive into this demo tonight to lead into the game release next week.

Just tried it and it runs like a dream now (stuttering before) I love that SE/nvidia were able to iron out most issues before release with that demo.

Finally got my key. No preload on 130GB, cmon.
Looks like there's still no 21:9 support, ugh. I didn't see a config on Flawless Widescreen, either. I do see that Github mod floating around from the demo, though.

Good to know that, I was wondering about DL size.. Deiced to skip for now after all , got plenty to do until Diablo 4 expansion is here. At least I can grab it on sale one in a few month, and plan to fire up a lovely nice download session for the night.

Nice mod that improves the regular game's difficulty. Enemies hit harder and are more aggressive. Basically adds a hard mode that should have been available from the beginning.

I have technical questions that I think fits this thread better. I am nearing to the end of FF16 but I cannot keep coming to 2 problems for my sessions.
The first:
When I start playing the game the latest driver for Nvidia was Driver Version: 561.09. On that driver I could use DLDSR resolution in my 1440p IPS monitor and in game I could choose 4k DLDSR resolution with no problem. But starting with 565.90 and with today's latest 566.03, the DLDSR resolution is gone in the in game graphics resolution menu. Doesn't even show. When I roll back to 561.09, it shows again. I tweak lots of details with the new drivers, restarting G-Sync etc. etc. but to avail. Is this related to driver only problem or I do something wrong? Or missing something here?
The second:
This is about flickering. I used my LG GL850-B IPS monitor nearly 4 years now and this is the only time and only game I encountered flickering. As I said in OLED thread, my eyes are too sensitive to this flickering shit that I hate its guts. The flickering is most noticable on the cinematics (using no mod by the way) but I can notice it in normal gameplay as well. To avoid it, I completely close Adaptive Sync feature on my monitor or G-Sync in Nvidia Control Panel but I lose G-Sync in doing so (duuuh, no shit?). But after closing G-Sync I have zero flickering with just V-Sync (opened from Nvidia Control Panel, closed from in game menu).
Do any of you having these kind of issues? Or have some comments? The graphic card is normal 4080 not the super version by the way.

I saw flickering during cutscenes in the demo (4080S). Turing off VRR fixed it, but then gameplay wasnt as smooth (judder) with FG on.
