They should have made this port a version of its own for the switch. I mean they should have remade this game back from square one to repolish the assets they use so they can well optimize and integrate the system on weaker hardware.

@@brianlaudrupchannelit literally is the same game just downgraded graphics. I remember when I was younger they would make different versions of the same game for GBA, DS, and Consoles. My family could never afford the consoles so I would always be disappointed how my DS version was not as cool as the PS3 version. I can imagine it's cool for younger generations now to be able to play the same game you can on PS5 just with scaled back visuals instead of them making a side scroller hogwarts legacy.

RDR1 is amazing too, and it uses same G engine that RDR2, gta 5 etc, obiously not the gta 5 version up to date graphic, a previous one, I remember when people laughed when N said rdr2 cold have been into switch but never happened cuz lack of time or some crap, of course could have been ported, worst case ps3 version but it can handle a close to ps4 version. When looking the comparison of this game, ps5 lake water seems real and switch is 3 or 4 leagues down, trees too, but castle looking, cliffs, and lot of shit I don't feel ps5 is better just different looking since it is not real space they are what they call mipmaps, little textures and you can make it look as you want ( up to a point obviously ). Ps5 is better just cuz joy cons never got fixed, incredible, but there are usb controllers that make switch the device it should have been, stable and ver similar to steam deck.

Its always so interesting to see what needs to happen to make games run on lower hardware.

But from making the game run, its really cool to see the difference, but all the while still being the same game.

[@lucascamelo3079]

True. In the past ports sometimes changed the whole game structure/scenario. This is a 1:1 recreation in a much weak hardware. We have come a long way.

[@CognizantZen]

What is a good job about this? Absolute puritan display, no optimization and no visual design. A game released a long time ago on inferior hardware, it was designed to look good on it as well. Harry Potter, released on ps3/xbox360, looks better than this. Better geometry, higher resolution, more detailed textures.

[@reggiefils-aime9798]

@robertkurta559 a good job is somehow seeing this massive game on a tiny little console with specs that were decent in 2015. Like... I don't think you realize how nutty it is to have a game that needs 12gb of ram minimum run on a console that has 4 and only 3 of them dedicated to gaming. That's super cool and I hope some developers speak about how they did it.

This story that "nobody cared about realism" is pure imagination of yours, I remember very well at the time of the PS2 how much people were always talking about how realistic the graphics of game X were, or how detailed the graphics of game Y were and etc... people have always paid attention to graphics in all generations of consoles.

It's not impressive, any game can be ported to switch, the problem will always be that they have to lower the graphics a lot depending on the game and the graphic style it has It will make it look bad or medium good even in very low graphics and by the way the optimization, which they do but of course they have limits due to the hardware

[@noelrodriguez9932]

Yo no diría tanto que se vea de Gamecube, vale que Switch no sea un portento en graficazos y eso se debe a que usa componentes creados en 2014/2015, para lo que es, es un resultado sorprendente, se puede comparar por ejemplo con el port de The Witcher III para el mismo sistema y eso que este último es más grande que Hogwarts Legacy. Yo pensaba comprarme la versión de Switch dado que de momento es la única consola que tengo pero, me voy a esperar al posible lanzamiento de Switch 2 y con eso quizá lleguen los parches "next gen" para que dichos juegos se vean mejor, que ojo, que a mi me vale con que el juego sea estable y pueda al menos ir a 30fps sin tantas caídas. Como dije, el port es más que admirable y el trabajo que hay detrás, es muy meritorio, lo van a disfrutar muchos por el hecho de la portabilidad y algunos dirán que es mejor la steam deck, si ya, pero muchos no tienen la solvencia económica para permitirse una steam deck y aun si la tienen, es una consola que literalmente es una PC portátil y por tanto también tiene sus contras.

[@David-gb8br]

Para una persona que no lo haya jugado en PC o consolas de nueva generación seguramente disfrutara la experiencia, pero para alguien que ya lo ha jugado con gráficos a tope se nota el bajonazo en todos los niveles, gráficos más opacos y sin luces, ni hablar del agua que se ve como cortada, en fin, el hardware del switch a estas alturas simplemente ya debería ser actualizado.

I mean, of COURSE the PS5 will look far better, but IF you only have a Switch, it seems like you'd at least get more or less a similar - albeit less visually stunning (the lower candle count at 9:53 really makes it obvious what had to be sacrificed to make this work on Switch) Hogwarts experience. If you never SAW the PS5 version next to it, I'm sure you'd be perfectly happy with it. As someone with a Switch and PS5, though, the choice is obvious. Still, it's impressive that they managed to make ANY serviceable version work on Switch, given the scale of it.

[@rcadenow7543]

Love that switch bring back ps2 textures to games.

[@lqddancer6]

The switch has produced far better ports even with its limitations, even Red Dead Redemption from ps3 looks waaaaayyyyyy better and graphically it is quite similiar to the Legacy port, but it has gorgeous sunsets and nice sharp clean visuals. Main issues I have are the lack of any kind of dynamic lighting which would have greatly improved the texture details, they could have increased the contrast also to hide alot of the messy looking textures too, and the draw distance being so foggy is a huge eyesore, looks like Silent Hill 1 on ps1 lol. Will I buy the switch port? Yes, because performance wise I will agree it looks like it's running well and I'd love to play the game on the go, but I think they could have done a better job and I hope some patches come out down the road like GTA trilogy and Witcher 3 that can improve the graphics. The switch is more than capable of handling way better graphics, just look at Doom! Easily outperforms this visually and gameplay speed. I'm definitely holding on to my ps4 copy of it lol

[@flyingplantwhale545]

Most PS3 era games ported to Switch will look better than this. They get to keep sharp textures and consistently higher resolutions. The problem here is that poor image quality ruins what would otherwise be an artistically stunning game. So, older games get to preserve their visual identity or even enhance it.

[@Evermore360]

It's also a completely different engine. The standard of the Unreal 4 engine is much higher. The port is very good. Especially when you see how terribly Mortal Kombat 1 was realised.

[@blueflare3848]

RDR is a PS3 game. Hogwarts is two generations past that.

[@lqddancer6]

Going to follow up and say I picked up the game today and I am actually more impressed with it than what footage on KZbin has shown. Reduce the brightness a bit to improve the contrast like I was suggesting and man, while it’s still a shadow of it’s next gen self and not the best port I’ve played to date, it’s still very very impressive and holds its own :)

[@JKSmith-qs2ii]

Wow, just wow. They better not be selling this full price.

[@Vyyc-m9g]

Why not? They did a lot of work to make it work on the Switch. They basically made the game from cratch again just for switch owners.

[@CDumke]

Yeah but it kinda falls short compared to what others get for their money. So selling it for 50$ would be fine instead of 70$ like the PS5 version costs. Edit: and it wasn't made from scratch, it's mostly de-make to fit the power of the switch graphic wise.

[@marcelosoares7148]

​@@CDumkeThis is mostly aimed for the people who only have a Switch as a mean of playing this game, so the price tag won't matter much. The same thing happened with the RDR1 port from Rockstar, they charged $50 and it sold wonders on the Switch.

[@jyllianrainbow7371]

The Switch version really shows how busy the visuals are on PS5. Developers have gone all-in on throwing as much detail and effects at you as possible without really considering the visual readability you have when you're actually playing the game. I wonder if the gaming industry will ever get over this obsession with attaining photorealism and realize simpler easy to read visuals are actually better for gameplay.

[@SUCHMISH]

Agreed!! I actuality remembered an argument over the Crash N-Sane Trilogy port for the Nintendo Switch, "One looks like Cheetos Puffs, and the other looks like Crunchy Cheetos" Where I said, "Yup and the Crunchy ones are the best!!" It's not surprising how many people agreed with that.

[@AI-AITUM]

Wrong. Simple sometimes get in the way when you can't make out what something is in order to react to it. If you're going to have details, it has to be clear enough for a gamer to read what it is, or else stick to simple boring graphics like you said, and have boring gameplay.
