It’s crazy the level of optimization and performance first party vs third party get out of the consoles.

It’s not really exactly like Sekiro tho. I was playing that game to get ready for this one. I would say it’s even slightly different than Wo Long. There is actually a small window of time you have to deflect BEFORE the attack actually hits you. In Sekiro you deflect AS the attack hits you. It really does feel different in action too. Took some getting used to. As far as the back and forth goes it is slightly different as well. It definitely has very similar rhythms and timing, but the way depleted health increases stagger in Sekiro is one major difference. I haven’t tried Nioh yet but sorely need to. Deflecting is a big part of RotR, but it also has a “Blade Flash” technique that allows you to regain stamina after a swing by cleaning the blood off your sword. (Really cool in action). It’s more about just pressing your enemy and using combat styles that counter theirs, while deflecting when needed. The amount of combat styles and weapon types in this game can seem overwhelming at 1st but once you get into it, it’s AWESOME. You are encouraged to switch to weapons and styles on the fly, depending on your opponent’s weapon and style. After a little practice it becomes fairly intuitive and the controls can be pretty seamless. (Which to me is paramount in a game like this) TLDR; this game is its own thing and somewhat unlike Sekiro or Wo Long. While the open world wasn’t the “best” in execution, I found the story and its historical context to be very intriguing. Then you add SICK combat and an overall GENUINE atmosphere, and Rise of the Ronin is one of the best samurai/ninja titles I’ve had the pleasure of playing 😊 4 out of 5 stars ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

@@crysave9624 You can't have everything. The one or two times a year a game doesn't come to PC immediately and you guys still whine about it. Exclusives barely even happen anymore, and yet you still feel so entitled to each and every release. Something tells me you don't whine like this for the dozens of Nintendo games because it's already expected, but when Sony and the PS5 FINALLY gets an actual true exclusive to justify its console, nah, we can't have that. GTA6 is inevitably coming to PC eventually too, just not immediately, because not the whole world revolves around you and the PC audience. Taking extra time to actually optimize the PC releases is a good thing if anything, instead of rushing it out the door when it's not ready and takes extra work than the console versions. PC gamers always want to have their cake and eat it too, and then review bomb the Steam page for some arbitrary reason anyway. I game on PC too, but the PC crowd is easily the most impossible to please of the bunch, it is easy to understand why a company wouldn't even want to bother dealing with such unpleasant people

Called it since announcement. Rise and DD2 were bound to be those types of ambitious mid-generational titles that would require a mid-generational console upgrade to really shine. Now that it appears as though the PS5 Pro is going to release as early as this holiday season or beginning of 2025, it all falls into place. That's also one of the reasons I believe Ubisoft scheduled the release of AC Codename Red for around February or March of 2025. They want it to be well optimized for the PS5 Pro at launch the way HZD and AC Origins were for PS4 Pro and XB1X. For their time, mind you. Back then, checkerboard rendering and dynamic resolution were state of the art technologies and it was considered a breakthrough for consoles to deliver a locked 30 fps with checkerboard or Dynamic 4K.

Its real DNA is Nioh, not Wo Long. I can clearly see some animations similar to Nioh1/2. Ghost of Tsushima has superb graphics at a locked 60 on PS5 but it has terrible input lag. Nioh2 in that regard is very responsive. It would have been nice if Tom shared some tests on input lag.
@Highwaysonyfan874 ай бұрын
It’s actually more of a melding of Nioh and Wo Long. Not one or the other. It uses multiple styles/stances like Nioh, but the core combat loop is heavily HEAVILY centered around parries, which is what Wo Long was ALL about.

It's truly perplexing that this game runs at such a low resolution when GoT runs at 4k/60 in the Directors cut, is open world and is STUNNING in every facet. There's really no excuse for the studio since it's a PS5 exclusive meaning they only needed to focus on one console. I would say the only real difference is Sucker Punch got 5 years to work on their game and KT probably got 2-3 at most. They pump out too many games IMO when they should focus on less but with better quality.

It seems like a trend with Team Ninja where they are always going to steps forward and one step back when it comes to graphics: the lackluster HDR implementation of Stranger of Paradise, the 30 fps cap on cutscenes (even on PC) and the uneven frame pacing found in Wu Long and now here. The strange implementation of Ray Tracing , the 4x Anisotropic filtering, FSR2 looking extremely blurry... These peoeple are more than capable of delivering better, so what's stopping them from doing so?

It doesn't cost much when you're not bandwith constrained. Usually on PC you aren't since GPU VRAM and System RAM don't share bandwith. On console bandwith is much scarcer. That's why it is pretty much the norm that console games have bad anisotropic filtering even today. It's kinda like textures not having performance impact unless you're out of VRAM.

It’s not really exactly like Sekiro tho. I was playing that game to get ready for this one. I would say it’s even slightly different than Wo Long. There is actually a small window of time you have to deflect BEFORE the attack actually hits you. In Sekiro you deflect AS the attack hits you. It really does feel different in action too. Took some getting used to. As far as the back and forth goes it is slightly different as well. It definitely has very similar rhythms and timing, but the way depleted health increases stagger in Sekiro is one major difference. I haven’t tried Nioh yet but sorely need to. Deflecting is a big part of RotR, but it also has a “Blade Flash” technique that allows you to regain stamina after a swing by cleaning the blood off your sword. (Really cool in action). It’s more about just pressing your enemy and using combat styles that counter theirs, while deflecting when needed. The amount of combat styles and weapon types in this game can seem overwhelming at 1st but once you get into it, it’s AWESOME. You are encouraged to switch to weapons and styles on the fly, depending on your opponent’s weapon and style. After a little practice it becomes fairly intuitive and the controls can be pretty seamless. (Which to me is paramount in a game like this) TLDR; this game is its own thing and somewhat unlike Sekiro or Wo Long. While the open world wasn’t the “best” in execution, I found the story and its historical context to be very intriguing. Then you add SICK combat and an overall GENUINE atmosphere, and Rise of the Ronin is one of the best samurai/ninja titles I’ve had the pleasure of playing 😊 4 out of 5 stars ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
