What you said not make sense. I clearly ask to you how many AAA title do you know with the same level of investiment are released first on pc later on console. And because you know perfectly the answer (it's more risky and dangerous on pc hardly you will ever see any) you make a weird sentence about the corporation thinking to show to be the smartest one where indeed you prove how your argument missed the big point of the equation.
How many PlayStation games are on Xbox? How many Xbox games are on PC? Where is Starfield day 1 on PS5? PC isn't a corporate entity. It won't fund any game like Sony or Microsoft, so that question doesn't even make sense. PC has the largest amount of AAA games day 1, so that route isn't leading where you think it does.
You name one game that comes out once a decade and decide to ignore the dozens of AAA games out there. Now quit wasting my time.
You continue to avoid my point. Why none AAA invest big amount of money first for pc as for console. And Rockstar it's not the only one. Also there is a corporation named Nvidia on pc. Ah I wasting your time now. Got it. Forgive me.
What do you mean by it will "have" pathtracing, pathtracing can be done on current PS5
I'm surprised you would focus on that aspect of the rendering result when games like Halo Infinite rendering much higher native but what gets rendered doesn't look great.
Yes, Witcher 3 was/is extremely popular on the PS4, as per CDPR's own data.
Witcher 3's Sales By System--How The Game Has Sold On PC, PS4, Xbox One, And Switch
CD Projekt Red announces a new sales milestone for The Witcher 3 and more.www.gamespot.com
This was in 2020 ;
Regardless, I think it's a wise choice from CDPR to target PS5 first at 60 FPS, the results are already astonishing to say the least, and it means those with PC hardware will get an even better experience. I suspect this game won't be out till after the PS6 launch, and I'll be curious to see how it scales on that as well.
343 is incompetent. What does Halo Infinite have to do with this? It's an ugly game.
It runs at 60fps, has much higher native rendering, tries to render forests and looks like an Xbox 1 game. So the fidelity of what is rendered is the limiting factor, not the resolution.
Sure, but Halo Infinite's problems go far beyond just resolution or assets. It was made by untalented people.
How?
The same same way raytracing is done, it uses the same hardware, where did you hear they would be "adding pathtracing"
Okay, but that didn't feel like the reasoning for you pointing out the tech demo was at 800-1080p, and felt more like an Alex from DF generalised derision of the resolution.
Yes it bodes even better for PC in my opinion, as by the time the game releases most PC configurations will have surpassed the PS5's performance which will mean a a really good experience for PC gamers as the game will run smoother and look much better.
That simply isn't true. PS5 has the largest number of AAA games day 1, even in the period where MS bought and blocked for a while. Now MS have started to do simultaneous on PS5 for those too.
The increased use of nanite in the Witcher is going to push up the steaming/VRAM requirements in all likelihood, I'd guess that 16GB of VRAM, maybe even more and an NVME at 3GB/s Peak will be recommended specs(like a SeriesX storage) for all those UE5.6 features on a PC version.
Do we have any actual information on streaming requirements for UE5.6, I have no doubt that the new fast geometry system will be sensitive to storage latency and bandwidth, but I imagine the figure for streaming requirements will vary.
The releases of Xbox have been much more pathetic than I thought. In my head, Indiana Jones, Avowed, South of Midnight, and STALKER 2 were all 2025 games, but I realized both Indy and STALKER 2 were 2024. I thought this was 5 day 1 with Dune Awakening compared to PS5 that has Ghost of Yotei and DS2. I don't even know what Microsoft has left for 2025.
They are working/collaborate with AMD to achieve path tracing for their next generation gpu, leaked time ago? Doubt ps5 and ps5 pro hardware can handle it.
No, I would have just preferred they target ~1440p 30 fps like GTA VI is seemingly doing and consider the performance mode the secondary.
I was asking CoPilot about nanite's limitations following UE5.6/5.7 features improvements and it was giving generalised info about stressing the data streaming system...with a RTX 3060 being a very common card and shipping with 8-12GB I was inferring that today's minimum spec already has issues with nanite pre-ue5.6 and adding those features is going to stress it more.
There is no such things as "consoles" for these companies, there is individual platform, individual SKUs each with their own APIs, software stack, rules and guidelines... etc
If you read my first post in this thread I said exactly that.
It also means the game could be less ambitious than their previous one (CP77). Now it's too early to say, and I'm sure Nvidia already has the rights for marketing + technology just like the last couple of CDPR releases so the game could still be a tech show-stopper but we'll have to see when the time comes (just look at GTA VI on PS5).
The small difference between 800p and 1440p resolution rendering mostly nanite data will be more than bridged by PSSR on the Pro and be close enough with that fidelity reconstructed with FSR3 on the PS5, losing 60fps for diminishing increased fidelity feels like the wrong solution and going down the diminishing returns route.

I just had to quote you too so more people can see this shit.
Hey, I know GTA is popular, but just do the maths of nanite for those resolutions of the matrix demo versus the witcher tech demo and the lit geometry on display per frame - well, actually per 2 frames of Witcher demo at 60fps for everyone one frame of GTA6 30fps(matrix demo at most) -and it is no contest.
You'll find many an armchair developer here on Gaf. They have never made a game but still know more/better than actual developers. Just because some of them might have/build gaming PC's they think they are suddenly an authority on game development.
Probably. This is maybe why they don't want to lose time with Xbox yet. They know PS5 will still be here in 2027, Xbox (both machines), not so sure.
Or at least delay an Xbox release like it already happened with BG3 and Wukong.
Oh how I miss Ricky and his dumbass posts.....
For the same reason the PS4 and Xbox One aren't baseline, competitive pressure means if Assassin's Creed Shadows, Alan Wake 2, Doom TDA were PS4 games their PS5 exclusive competitors would have a clear edge. At some point you have to move the baseline forward because if you don't do it someone else will. If GTA6 was on PS4 it wouldn't be anywhere as impressive.
