Did i just read on reee that the digital fuckers promoted switch 2 in one of their videos without disclosing that it was a paid ad??!

For reeee to say that it must be true because they fucking love the digital fuckers over there

Cant find the vid now on DF channel so looks like it got removed, but lets not forget IGN owns DF, including its yt channel ofc, the vid wasnt bit biased opinion of df ppl about switch2 games, it was simply repluoaded official nintendo promotional material
here vid from other channel reporting/calling it out:

It made sense that since then DF started treating switch2/nintendo games with kid gloves

wow. this is even worse than i thought lol

This explains all the cum guzzling they do for nintendo despite being graphics whores. I wonder how many blowjobs Nintendo offers them to go easy on their titles that look 2 generations old.

They (IGN) own shares, but do not have majority control, I believe.

 

[icecold1983]

last chance , EA

Don't expect leading edge visuals. 2042 level rendering but with some actual destruction and dynamics.

 

[analog_future]

This is actually embarrassing.

Compared to an actual open-world game from 11 years ago:

 

[Feel Like I'm On 42]

Compared to that promo screenshot from before

Disgusting. I loathe these lying cunt developers and Take 2. Even if it winds up looking better on PC, they still lied to our faces with those initial trailers, because the implication was it would look stunning ...period.

I spit on you bastards.....same devs who never updated Mafia Remake for 60 fps even though it released just one month prior to ps5/sx consoles!

So sick of the BS ....and get ready for that MGS Delta downgrade too next month AND most likely Dying Light 2 The Beast will not look like the footage thats being shown (on console anyway)...also next month!

this industry simply can not be honest it is disgusting. To think KZ2 trailer was all the way back in 05, Watch Dogs in 2013, The Division in 2015, and Dying Light 2 was shown in 2018? Yet here we are in 2025 and they're still pulling the same stunts ...totally encouraged by the cunts at Microsoft and Sony. It will never stop will it

 

[Feel Like I'm On 42]

Just switch back to FSR3. You will get a higher average dynamic resolution. Quality mode went from 1296p-1800p before being reconstructed to 4k. Which is better than even DLSS quality which maxes out at 67%. Yes, it's FSR and not DLSS but at that high of an internal resolution, you should be fine. Even the 60 fps mode goes up to 1152p. No need to use the broken PSSR mess created by Cerny for no fucking reason when AMD had its own superior solution available.

Will try it again but even with FSR the waterfalls are fugazi after the pro update. Since PSSR does nothing good for this and Outlaws its as if those games have wasted Pro versions, outside of a little higher dynamic res in their original FSR mode.

Pssr is going to be dropped by Sony once FSR4 comes to the Pro next year ...what a joke ...

Wuchang, the game does not have photo mode unfortunately, I will upload more pictures later. The pictures have HDR on which makes them maybe a bit darker than they should. The game looks fantastic in my OLED TV

[Msamy]

Why they don't show actual gameplay?

 

[Represent.]

Lets fucking go. We're getting a proper serious military AAA SP shooter campaign with destruction.

 

[GymWolf]

How much of that is cg? something looked real like the horrible model at 1:45...

 

[Represent.]

All in engine

Looks incredible. Theres also destruction. This will be a monster visually in SP at least

 

[Portugeezer]

Keep that DICE in engine shit out of here. It is some of the most misleading.

Go look at BF1, Battlefront 2, Squadron, etc, in engine trailers... they looks nothing like the actual game.

Whatever.
Im still hyped for the tone. I just need a big budget AAA SP military shooter without Ice Spice running around in it shooting peolpe in Horsemasks. Im extremely hyped for that alone

 

[RodriGames40]

Why they don't show actual gameplay?

Man, fakest trailer of all time. The camera angles don't even make sense, curated to death.

 

[Gonzito]

 

[analog_future]

Looks alright. Kind of reminds me of Stellar Blade level visuals.

 

[MidGenRefresh]

0 forced diversity just dudes killing each other and blowing shit up. 10/10.

 

[icecold1983]

All of it. The entire trailer is pre-rendered. Some scenes will be more achievable than others but in general expect the actual game to look substantially worse than the overall fidelity of that footage.


"In engine trailer"



The actual game

 

[coachmcguirk91]

There are tons of videos of Battlefield 6 multiplayer on youtube. It seems like a solid step up from 2042, but nothing cutting edge. I doubt single player will look drastically different

This is a build from May... It looks very good for a Multuplayer Game. Keep in mind, it has legit destruction. Unlike COD and any other AAA military game on earth.

The single player will look much better than this. Just like COD SP looks way better than its MP. You guys are gonna eat crow on this one.

There are 3 studios working on the Single Player campaign alone. The Dead Space Remake guys, Criterion and DICE.

Fanboys are the worst everywhere. It's a shame because we are all getting older every year, and i wouldve thought that as you age you propensity to gauge bullshit increases, but then i saw 50 year olds like VFX Veteran behave like children and lost all faith in humanity. Some people wrap their entire identity around defending these companies.

I am a big kojima fan, was a big Sony fan, but it was obvious right at the start of the gen that something was wrong. Those same guys 5 years ago fighting me still refuse to admit it despite every single sony game looking last gen as fuck. Nintendo fanboys are literally the same defending games that look last gen by last gen standards. Just ignore and move on.

VFX Veteran

Now that's a name I've not heard of in a long time… a long time

Turd?

Overall I'd say Donkey Kong Bonanza is a very nice looking game in terms of art direction and the way it all comes together on screen but of course it's not got anything cutting edge in it visually looking at small parts of the world. It's would say it's better looking and knocking on the door of Astro Bot in some of the more interesting aesthetic worlds.

I think the IQ is "fine enough" because before they were using FSR1 with a 720p/900p settings in Tears of the Kingdom (which was almost always at 720p) and now it's at least 1080p/1292p so it looks a lot more stable when upscaled. Is it great? Of course not and it's frustrating when you think they also have DLSS for ML upscaling. But it's an early game which has been in development for the original Switch for over 8 years.

The main thing with DK is this level of distraction is absolutely nuts and offers many new ways for their level designers and gameplay mechanics to go crazy.

So you end up with a great game with decent IQ with almost full destruction which runs at an almost locked 60fps 99% of the time. All of that balanced around a 3.5tflop GPU and a CPU which has at best 40% the overall CPU performance of the PS5/SeriesSX CPU's. It's an impressive technical achievement for a very early game which was targeted as a last gen console and brought over.

This game has apparently been feature complete since 2022 by the way. The next Mario game is well into production as they have several teams they moved around when needed. It should arrive in time for Xmas 2026. This will be a visual showcase and will leverage DLSS and RT and be the visual showcase of the system

Yeah, watching that trailer again, if it comes anywhere near that its the best looking FPS ever. Holy fuck am I excited for the SP.

Folks, dont let graphical perfection get in the way of your enjoyment for games.

It won't. Why do you do this to yourself? People have posted previous dice inebgine trailers. They look and feel nothing like the final game.

[ResetEraVetVIP]

It looks awesome, almost feel like a new Dead Space

The chromatic aberration though ugh. I hate it why do developers insist in having it on

It looks good in some games.

Wait a second, so the 2 zelda on switch are not even in 4k and have drops?

How the fuck is this console 2x times more powerfull than a ps4?

It does make sense. I think there is a bit of revisionism with last gen performance. Zelda runs at around 1300p/60. Both that res and performance was not a thing with the PS4. Games were typically 1080p/30, with ports of PS3 games like Uncharted running at 60fps. Open world games especially were 30fps at best. Witcher 3 was quite often in the mid 20s and games like Unity were 900p at 25fps.

But the zelda titles look way worse than a ps4 title dude, even calling them crossgen between ps3-ps4 is very generous...

I doubt you need the same power to push ps3 level of fidelity...

 

[Gonzito]

But the zelda titles look way worse than a ps4 title dude, they are barely ps3 quality.

I am with you. Switch 2 should be powerful enough to run the Zelda games at 4k native and 60fps without issues. At the same time, it should capable too of having some sort of temporal reconstruction so the jaggies are not visible

Nintendo does the bare minimum always and that's why I dont like them

1440p and shit solid 60 with those visuals would be laughed out of the industry in 2025 if it was any other big company...



And the ninty boys were mad at the nintendo get a free pass topic...

 

[analog_future]

The Until Dawn remake actually looks damn good on PC. Still a bit rough around the edges but I don't think this one has gotten enough attention for it's visuals:

 

[Represent.]

Top tier art and enemy design, spectacle.. But held back significantly due to horrible image quality on PS5. I can only imagine how godly it looks on a maxed out PC.

Mind you, it looks much better than this in motion on my PS5.

Here it is vs HFW.

For Wukong 2, they gotta do something about IQ.

 

[Yoshichan]

Just played and finished Luto, honestly one of the best looking games I've ever played in my life ngl. Assets are insane and so is the lighting (no RT). Also pics don't do it justice because these are pictures saved through Steam with artifacts etc.

 

[Msamy]

Aside from ign shit youtube quality this looks amazing, for me have more potential than wukong on gameplay / graphics

 

[RodriGames40]

Wait a second, so the 2 zelda on switch are not even in 4k and have drops?

My guess is the framerate. It runs like utter trash on the Switch 1 to the point it can't even keep 20 fps, Switch 2 is basically bruteforcing an equivalent of 3 times the performance plus a laughable dynamic 720p resolution, which essentially lands at around 1184p-1440p considering all the rest.

 

[Madserb2023]

But the zelda titles look way worse than a ps4 title dude, even calling them crossgen between ps3-ps4 is very generous...

I don't understand. Uncharted 2 for instance ran at 720p 30 on the PS3. It went to 1080p/60 in the PS4. Uncharted 4 had to drop to 30. The next Zelda will likely have to be 30 too. Games developed for the PS4 were 30 but cross gen games were 60 as with the Switch 2. Odyssey now runs at 1800p/60. Obviously this is something had to prove as no game runs at that resolution on the PS4 and not many even on the PS4 Pro, but I doubt the visuals would even be Odyssey levels. A good example is Sackboy on the PS4 only running at 720/60. Not much higher on the PRO.

If you loved it on PS4, you'll love it here. It's not breaking new ground but it's a solid remake, at least a few patches later and on PC.

 

[Lethal01]

Who would laugh them out? If Sony or Xbox gave me more games with artstyles I liked I would also be totally fine with this level of performance. That's why I think people who think Nintendo is getting a pass are missing that I'm giving every other company the same "pass"

The difference is that they refuse to make games I care about. It actually does to a pretty hilarious degree since the second XBox actually manage to make me give a shit with Hi Fi rush they then shut down the studio despite being burried in praise?

Plus the game is also on pc so I struggle to really associate it with xbox but regardless. Make games I care about and the last thing on my mind is texture quality and if it drop from 60 in a couple spots.

 

[DanielG165]

I kinda hopped off Wuchang pretty quickly, but damn did the visuals look rough. It didn't feel all that great to play, either. Black Myth, it certainly wasn't, which is a shame, because the premise and ideas are extremely interesting.
