Bloodborne PC hits new milestone for me

It's crazy how far we've come in such a short amount of time. Shout out to the ShadPS4 emulator devs as they are the true heroes! Also shoutout to the ShadPS4 discord for cool peeps bundling in new updates to the emulator with the bloodborne specific builds. Just happy to show it off for y'all!

[@Eyedunno]

As an old-timer, I just want to point out that the history of emulation is full of this kind of thing. Back in 1997, NES emulation was an absolute joke and little more than a curiosity. You could technically get some games to run, but they would run at like 5 fps with no sound or weird sound. Then NESticle came out and basically overnight we were able to play essentially all popular games at full speed with good audio **and** it had savestates and a tile editor as well. "A few months ago emulation sucked, but now it doesn't" is a statement that kind of encapsulates the whole history of emulation because once one breakthrough happens, it pulls the community together and a lot of talented people suddenly start making things even better at breakneck speed. So this isn't really a historic first by any means, it's just that this time it's *your* game (or your game dev) that it's affecting.

[@doobi3883]

I recommend you deeply to try Demon Souls on ps3 emulation instead of the remake. I played first the remake and thought it was an epic adventure, and when playing the og it was such a sad, melancholic piece that gave me a big emotional impact even though it should be the same game

[@MananaMan]

You're not really missing out on anything with the remake, but Bloodborne is possibly the best Soulslike ever made.

Just a warning, don’t get too excited about this video just yet unless you’ve actually played this yourself.

You just casually drop that Lossless scaling has frame generation support, It hit me like a ton of bricks, I was looking for something with this capability for months because I was trying to find a way to apply frame generation to an OBS window that's capturing bloodborne using a capture card from a PS4. Then even better it doesn't inject anything into the game files or upset EAC so it works with Elden ring, And as someone who has both a 3080TI and a 2060 (For video Encoding) I can split the load and get 120FPS in Elden ring with minimal input latency. There's some artifacts but I've just spent like 15 minutes screaming in my room about it.

For someone who also ignored Lossless Scaling for a long time, I was quite surprised when I finally tried it. Sure some games input latency become a bit too much , specially if the starting load is a lot already, but goddamm , the moment u get some resemblance of good fps and u just double it, it feels amazing!

Personally I don't care too much if visually this is not perfect. I would leave that task to Sony when doing the remake/remaster for PC. If a well-looking emulation can run on pc and be functional that is enough for me. 60+ fps, speedhack, lamp improvements, 1440p, that is totally worth for me. Can't believe how much this has progressed in only what? 1 month? CRAZY THE TRUE HERO

I've never liked lossless scaling frame gen, but I found it pretty good in bloodborne. Maybe it's the insane amount of motion blur that this game already has, there wasn't actually too much artifacting besides on your character.
