Jup, being in software developemnt for last 15 years, working on many industry performance problems (warehouse/shipping software, not gaming) and finding a solution, adding more hardware often is not the best solution, it is more of a temporary quick fix to buy time, sometimes it is not even a possibility. But properly optimizing the code, without functionality loss is always a good solution.

Runs fine on my PS5. I have a PC too, but part of me - after spending so long(decades) putting up with unironic douchebaggery from PC owners about being the 'master race' and how console owners are paupers, and children, and how any console exclusive is for 'babies', etc. - just considers ports like this to be a kind of karmic justice. Unfair to all the decent PC owners out there, and not exactly rational, but yeah. It's also true that for all the fludiity and interchangability of PC architecture - the fact that you can constantly upgrade them and swap parts in and out - there is a necessary compromise at the heart of that, which is that developers will find it harder(or depending on how badly you think of developers, less worth the effort) to get their games running on a PC than on something unified and predictable in architectural terms like the PS5 or the XB SX. That's just built into PCs, and it's built into any system really: the easier it is to swap internal structure around and change it the more difficult it will be to reliably cater for such a system.

Well, it isn't Capcom's fault. The PS5 doesn't have the Twinkle Vane Processing, so it has no special technology to make the frame rate ever faster. It is so because the extra latency to have the frame data being drawn and rendered is part of the reason why the frame rate drops so much. The PS5 would run Dragon's Dogma 2 much faster, if they were using the Twinkle Vane processing.

The reason PS4 runs Red Dead Redemption 2 better than PS5 runs Dragon's Dogma 2 is because the PS4, in its jaguar CPU, uses a special technology named the Twinkle Vane Process, which is characterized by rendering frames much faster than other consoles do, rendering them in a game just a few seconds after they're drawn in the RAM, and running the frames off a "swap bus" to reduce latency between the CPU and GPU, that rendering takes about 25% less time on a PS4 than it does on a PS5, resulting in much more fluid gameplay.

The times when games were packed with all sorts of mechanics that justified taxing our CPUs and tried to get much better visuals shredding our GPU's, are over now, we just get games that look exactly the same or even worse then a 6 year old titles, but working like a complete garbage. I don't know if it's less talented people in the industry, or devs getting lazy, producers getting greedier and for example take money from the hardware companies only to force us to purchase new shit every year. Probably all things at once, absolutely disgusting. Every year i play less games, DD2 and Rise of Ronin are another titles that i removed from my "play and enjoy" list, and this trend continues, im starving for a good title... and everything i waited for become a big disappointment. But seeing all these white knights, i understand that there are some new slave generations liking this treatment, they love when big corpos spit in their faces and they just say that it's raining.

These texture bugs in Series S are the same ones that happen in Street Fighter 6 and Resident Evil 4. In Resident Evil 4, some players already discovered that you can solve the problem by logging into your Series X and disabling ray tracing. When you return to Series S with the same account, the problem is completely solved, so maybe something similar is happening in this game. In Street Fighter 6, if you do a few tricks during the fights, you can see the textures loading in the middle of the fight and they stay loaded for the rest of the following matches if you keep playing without changing characters, and when you play the World tour you can see that all the fighters' textures load normally without this bug. Capcom doesn't seem to care about fixing simple bugs in its games, so I won't be surprised if this game continues to have this problem for the rest of its life, since it hasn't fixed it in the games I've mentioned.

I really wish u guys did a more deep dive for the PC port with multiple different CPUs(considering the game is CPU bottlenecked) from both Intel and AMD to check its scaling across the number of cores, whether Hyper-threading active and disabled has any advantage or disadvantage, the effects of E-cores, and whether the 3D V cache chips perform significantly better than its non 3D parts or is clock speed better for the town scenario.

All micro-transactions are optional and inconsequential and unobtrusive.

Remember back in the PS3 and 360 days when developers were already making promises of 60fps as standard? Then they did it again with PS4 and Xbox One, and then they did it again with PS5 and Xbox Series X. At this point, it’s clear they value fidelity over 60fps performance, so we’ll still be getting 30fps games 20 years from now. Sure, lots of games have a performance mode, but 60fps should already be the standard. 30fps shouldn’t even be in the conversation.

Now we’ve got the opposite situation likely because Sony was pissed about the how RE4 shipped in a better state on X.

The PS5 version of RE4 has always run at a higher internal res/framerate and never had its checkerboard solution fixed. The Series X was never as accomplished with RE4 to begin with outside of working checkerboarding that they inevitably broke like the rest of their titles.

I'm starting to suspect this too, mainly because of what Sony said during the Activision ABK hearings. When Jim Ryan was complaining that Microsoft shouldn't be allowed to take advantage of Xbox Series X hardware with CoD, as it might end up looking better than on Playstation, it caught my attention. But then he mentioned Microsoft also "might" intentionally make PS5 ports worse to sabotage them... It sounded so nonsensical, yet it made me think "maybe he's speaking from experience?" And whenever we see Series X ports running with weird issues compared to the PS5 versions of games, it's almost always from Japanese devs (who obvious are close with Sony). Tinfoil hat stuff here, but I'm PC-only anyway & don't have an Xbox of any kind. It's just weird to me.

@@corey2232 nope I think you hit the nail on the head. We’ve seen these companies do super shady shit before on numerous occasions the fact people can’t fathom them paying for parity or advantages in performance? Yeah sure. Look at Hogwarts. The Series X version wasn’t the worst but it had stuttering throughout that wasn’t present in the PS5 version. It to this day has not been fixed and Warner Bros and Sony just got cozy and had advertising rights for Hogwarts. Jim Ryan said that because he knows exactly what they’ve been up to internally. They’re pressuring these devs to optimize PS5 and only PS5. You look to any neutral companies such as Epic, Rockstar, and Remedy and the performance always goes in Series X’s favour. Sony knows DF makes these videos and it means a lot to certain consumers so they make sure Microsoft always looks poorly when their console churns out the worse version. People don’t blame the devs they blame the console because of unintelligent fanboys.

Playing on PS5, I think this might be the best looking games I’ve ever played. My jaw has been on the floor the entire time. It looks like LOTR the movie, but remastered with much better quality CGI. Lol. The lighting, the painterly majesty of this ridiculously gorgeous game.. 😢 thank you, universe, you’ve importantly levelled up this week. KZbin really did the visuals dirty.

Sadly the engine appears so poorly optimised that 10% will be meaningless.

Poorly optimized game will forever be poorly optimized, if a 4090 and the what is regarded as the best gaming CPU maintain the framerate then a something like console with a constrained power budget will fail obviously

Put a GPU like RTX4090 or similar on your imaginary PS5 Pro and tell me if it would improve the FPS or not.

RE Engine is super efficient with rendering, but falls apart whenever complex simulation is involved. The World Tour mode in SF6 hammering CPUs was the first big red flag. Sad to see, because the game is incredible. If you're on PC I think the move is to cap your FPS based on the limits of your CPU, which is unusual, and then crank the visuals up as high as you can to enjoy the GPU headroom afforded by doing that. I settled on 45 FPS on a 3060 Ti paired with a i5 12400F, it's perfectly smooth aside from hitches in the capital city. And before the snobby PC "60 FPS is the bare minimum" people yell at me, you should know I played and enjoyed the original DD1 game on a PS3 and that thing ran at an average of 24 FPS. I'm good.

Graphics/performance is the least of the game's problem. The biggest flaw for me is the lack of New Game option - if we accept this, there's no going back.

I have been anxiously awaiting this video becuase you are the only source I trust to actually determine the casue of the performance issues. I have seen so many people just turn on upscaling and wonder why it doesnt help and im willing to bet its a CPU bottleneck because CAPCOM chose to target 30FPS.
@gavinderulo125 ай бұрын
Exactly. It's so infuriating seing all these "4090 only gets X amount of frames in this game" posts, when it's entirely cpu bound.
@steel58975 ай бұрын
I don't think Capcom "targeted" anything, it's a mess. I think people would be happier with a 30 FPS cap on consoles, especially with the amount of 60hz TVs out there. On PC you have a lot more freedom, but even there to some it's kind of a hard pill to swallow to cap a PC game at sub 60 framerates. I recommend people take that pill though because the game is worth playing.

@@steel5897They did target it though? Look at their comments on PS5 and XSX performance before release and look at the Steam system requirements. "Additional Notes: Estimated performance: 2160i/30fps. Framerate might drop in graphics-intensive scenes. NVIDIA GeForce RTX 2080 Ti or AMD Radeon RX 6800 required to support ray tracing." They were very upfront the game was targeting 30 fps. Now that is a stupid target, but they did not hide anything.

Upscaling does help, but yes it's primarily a CPU issue. Upscaling is sort of like a band aid. It's not going to fix the worst of the problems but it does help
