yeah i saw some pics of ronin that look more detailed than tsushima, not super surprised after 6 years.
Tsushima had the strong art design doing the heavy lifting because graphic wise it wasn't exactly top class.
I bought Ronin after seeing all the glowing impressions in Gaf. Disappointed is an understatement. The game only looks good in the Graphics mode and yeah, only when those lighting conditions are present. In 'performance' it looks like shit. That beautiful lighting seems gone. That foliage swaying in the breeze becomes blurry and you're left with a still unstable framerate (it's playable at least) and watching your character run around with the goofiest animations ever.
The combat system is not that great either. I should've listened to Fighting Cowboy. I hope it gets better because Wo Longs combat seems similar but better and Sekiro is way better. It's not bad it's just not great.
If Ghost of Tsushima had a similar deflect/break system that game would've been amazing because it already has the cinematic visuals and is very responsive. They'll probably implement that for the sequel.
Seriously though shame on Sony and Team Ninja for the sorry state of Ronins performance. To have such poor visuals in the performance mode and not be 60 and stable is just sad. Ideally, this games Graphics mode would be at 60 and locked ...then people might actually have been happy. Where was Sony to help them out I wonder?
