I gotta say, I’m loving the game and the art direction is great, but the image quality leaves a lot to be desired on Series X.
Feels like 1080p/60 if I had to guess.

Or is it just one of Phil's balls in my throat?
Anyone got a list of how many and which full length movies are in this ?
They said on twitter it's more than one.

Fantastic so far. Amazing art direction and I've actually laughed quite a bit. Excited to play more this week!

Not even a bit lol
This is such a great game. I'm blown away how little marketing they did for this.

Performance, bugs, and the humor not jiving with some reviewers.

Top selling on steam. Lesson for The Callisto Protocol.

Started playing on PC but performance is ridiculously bad. Downloading on XSX now to compare. Sucks because I really prefer playing FPS with keyboard and mouse. May have to wait for some patches.
Yeah, it is. Good rating on Steam too. I'm guessing it is just the PC Game Pass version that sucks then.

Holy shit lol. What an unexpected surprise man. This game is seriously killing it lol. There are some serious easter eggs.

This game warrants multiple playthroughs. Just think of weapon speeches you’re missing when you are listening to one. This dev did something special.

Hmmm, definitely better than the last time I checked. Good to see progress.

At time the art style makes up for any graphical shortcomings.

Really looking forward to playing this, but I gotta get through Ragnarok first.

Plays like a dream on XSX. They really gotta fix their PC game pass version. Horrible. Game is legit fun. Still has some nagging bugs. Some dialogue bugs out and lips move but no sound. But I'm enjoying it overall.

I do wish there was a chromatic aberration toggle on console. The only thing there is motion blur, which, yes, I will always turn off for 60 FPS things.
Fucking stupid not to have a release trailer ready for TGAs.

I thought the Xbox has solid mouse and key support?

What’s wrong with the PC version? I have it downloaded for tomorrow so I guess I’ll find out

Comedy is super hard to pull off and it really pays off the creators of this have an experience in television. Don't want to say there are no funny games (Deathloop, for example, is legit funny when it wants to be and guys like Gilbert or Schafer have a long history in writing hilarious stuff), but mostly games are written by eager nerds that have watched a lot of comedy films and stand-up and want to emulate that. And this here is the big difference between High on Life and most comedic games. It just comes off naturally in here (VA is so fucking perfect) and I really appreciate that despite knowing that the tone will not work for everybody.
I would have given it a pass on that alone even if it had mediocre gameplay, but surprisingly it also plays really, really well. Everything is made for you to have pure unadulterated fun and that doesn't happen often these days.

It still has ue shader compile for everything new you see on screen.
The slowdowns are not are severe as callisto tho.
Leaving that aside, performance are basically perfect for what it looks like a proper AAA sometimes.
But i'm on the windows store version of the game, maybe on steam or epic it works better.

A stuttering mess for me. Steam might be the better option on PC

Shader compile or framerate hiccups?
I have the first one but after he loads new stuff it is pretty much flawless.

Is that interrupting game play or is loading too long? I didn't notice anything at all.

Mines running fine on gamepass outside of the odd shader stutter, but I do have a high end PC.
I guess the negative reviews were all performance, which was fixed day one patch. Maybe reviewers should put a tag on the reviews or re review it in this situation. Game is legit awesome.
Seems to be doing very well on steam so I guess they are making bank.
Performance would take it down a notch or two, but that’s all. The really negative reviews were from people who hated the humor. Like that clown at ButWhyTho

The game feels like a rated M first person ratchet but with less weapons and actually good and fun writing.
