Why do people do this? Are you playing the game 10x closer? lmao

This thread is about graphics, so people critique graphics.

When a game world is craftly designed I move very slow through the game, just to see HOW they did it and what they did. Like when you go on a walk in nature, some things will wow you and others not.

Was playing Mass Effect 3 yesterday and did the same, and it showed me how poorly some levels are designed with lots of missing ground textures etc. It's just something that's interesting to me. Like how movies are made or magic shows.

Surprised Callisto Protocol hasn't been mentioned. Picked up a Pro at the weekend and the update for this was pretty noticeable with RT added into a 1440p/60 performance mode. Been playing the 40fps mode myself as it seems to have some extra RT added in at a decent resolution. Couldn't tame the stutters on the iffy PC port so its probably preferable for me to finish it on the Pro at this point.

I know DF has brainrotted some people, but would you notice this sitting 10ft away from tv?

Remake and Rebirth are infamous for their inconsistent and often ugly texture work. This isn't even close to the worst example.

True. Character models look CGI-like and then some rock textures look PS3-like lmao

Seomel Instead of laughing, how about you do your research? Been this way since Remake on PS4. It's like some textures never load.

We had people on Gaf post screenshots. This is a well-known issue.

Rebirth has some low quality textures but it was never like the PS4 version of Remake. Com on now. You got nothing in Rebirth like that last pic you just posted from PS4's Remake.

Rebirth gets a massive boost in image quality in the 60fps mode. On base Ps5 it's one of the blurriest games I've played this gen, on the pro it looks nice and crisp.
AC Shadows also seems to get a nice boost in the 60fps mode since you basically get the next gen lighting which is only present in the 40fps and 30fps modes on base Ps5

I know this all too well myself, i got game week early because of covid distribution issues. Im just saying its pebble on bottom of screen. Its not something that should stick out when youre away from your tv playing normally.

I know Rebirth isn't as bad as the PS4 Remake. I'm saying this has been a problem since Remake on PS4. The same problem occurs in Rebirth on PS5 and even PC. I even reinstalled my game when I originally had it on PS4 because I thought it was a bug.

Wukong has a similar problem in that some textures never seem to load, but thankfully, it's not too frequent, but it jumps in your face when it happens.

Right after I bought mine I tested all mainstream games that had the patch.

The one that stood out night and day to me the most was Demon's Souls Remake. Specifically once you get past the small intro section and fight the first boss you are put down a long open pathway leading up to the entrance of the first castle. Stand there, look up at the castle, and you will see what I saw.

OP, if you're still looking for games to show off the power of your Pro, I have another game.
In line with my previous recommendation, this is another title which specifically serves as a benchmark versus the standard PS5.

A Plague Tale: Requiem has an unlocked framerate when the console is set to 120hz mode. The visual settings are the same as the performance mode, so it's 1080p. But it will run as fast as the console can manage. On base PS5, this is roughly the 60-80fps range. Series X averages around 5-10% higher framerates in comparison. The PS5 Pro ought to run the game at a maxed out 120fps in the same mode. I couldn't find any videos of anyone testing this with a performance counter, though.

 

[CitizenKratos]

The only game that's night and day to the naked eye and not some nerds like digital foundry, is Rebirth.

I was going to say this.

And for VR there's GT7 120 Hz

 

[Boss Mog]

Why don't you zoom in some more, it'll probably look even worse that way.

 

[Ironman_Bad]

Calisto Protocol looks absolutely bonkers on ps5pro and has an 8k mode

 

[rofif]

Stellar blade 80fpa with pssr looking way better

 

[Boss Mog]

Horizon Forbidden West looks great on the Pro.

 

[Touch fuzZy. get BizZay]

FF7 Rebirth and Stellar Blade

 

[Bojji]

The biggest image quality difference:

- rebirth
- returnal

 

[DenchDeckard]

Truck Driver: The American Dream *PS5 Pro versions is using HWRT for reflections, ambient occlusion (AO) and lighting (RTGI).

Fortnite : +50% resolution , HWRT (high Reflections & epic Diffuse lighting)
Marvel Rivals , The first descendant : HWRT , IQ improvement

FF7 Rebirth : PSSR 4K (night and day IQ improvement)

Looks like I'm moving over to fortnite on ps5 pro if I play it...

I still need to give marvels rivals a go so I'll download that.

Thanks for the heads up.

Alan wake 2 that 40 fps mode is sick

40 FPS is sick?

How can people enjoy such a choppy mess is beyond me

30 vs 40 fps is a huge difference.
I would never pick 30 but rockhard 40 with added RT and stuff is a great alternative to nothing at 60.

Remember that before 30 was the only way.. now we get the same at 40.

This is how vrr was in GoW and Tlou. It's totally worth it imo

 

[QLQ]

Baldur's Gate 3

 

[Flabagast]

You lost your money OP. Except maybe 2 or 3 titles the differences are barely noticeable

 

[sncvsrtoip]

Alan Wake 2 seems like a good case as well.

edit: Gran Turismo 7 has in-game ray tracing which it lacked before.

Imo both not best examples, Alan Wake 2 still looks noisy, gt7 rt is low resolution and dont change much

 

[analog_future]

Looks awful even without zooming in at all

 

[saintjules]

Forbidden West on the Pro is probably the best thing I've seen so far. Granted though I haven't tried GOW / TLOU2 yet.

[analog_future]

Heaven forbid anyone be critical about graphics in a thread about graphics.

 

[Coherenthy]

Warhammer 40K Space Marine 2. Really good image quality on PS5 Pro in performance mode and more stable framerate compared to base PS5.

FF7: Rebirth takes the cake though. Night and day difference on PS5 Pro.
