Whyy did he lie?

>Said FF16 will showcase the power of PS5
>The game barely reached 60 FPS in performance mode and was actually upscaled from 720p
>Said the game is so polished it won't need a day one patch
>Actually pushed a day one patch out and still didn't fix the performance

Why does Yoshi-p lied to us?
Is he lied because of his nature?
or because Sony paid him so much to shills for their consoles?
Is PS5 actually holding back the full potential of FF16?

      That is a PS5 design issue. Using the maximum power of a chip, as rated by the manufacturer, should NEVER hit critical temperature if the cooling system is working properly.

      Did you even watch the video? He think only the 30fps mode is playable. They aren't ok with the res dropping to 720p during battle to get a bad 60fps with drops.

        yeah, did you? He was not bothered by the occasional 720p because it's in motion and the combat is solid 60fps, he even praised ff16's use of motion blur. That bespoke guy is almost gushing all throughout that video.

            yeah, which became a meme here. If you want consistency use the 30fps mode, select performance if you want 60fps during combat. Fsr seems to be the culprit for the uneven performance mode which I hope will be patched

      Digitalfoundry feels very disappointing lately. The bloat their videos with talking about subjective graphics and design which isn't really bad on its own but I think it takes off the pressure of the main technical issues. The FF video is 38 minutes long and less than 7 minutes is about the performance.
      Also it is extremely weird how they praise the game left and right but when it comes to the numbers (less than 1440p in 30fps mode, 60fps with constant issues is 720p) it feels like they handwave it away. Technical tests were always somewhat objective and they slowly turn them subjective. Bad performance and image quality is acceptable if the game is high profile enough? It seems so. Reminds me of high profile games automatically getting 10s on most sites.

        Agreed that the narrative pushing is annoying but that's just to feed the youtube algorithm. If there's a better alternative for viewing performance of recent releases, I'm all ears. But they're still one of the better sources for quick snapshots as you can just skip the video for when they're showing performance metrics on screen.

          I'm interested in what the DF guys say because even Sony argued Digitalfoundry and such sites affect the brand. If the DF guy spend 30 minutes praising the game people won't remember the shitty performance. It bothers me if they turn into an "IGN but tech" channel. It is already very bad that high profile games can get away with anything while everything below is either mocked to oblivion or ridiculed for a few dropped frames here and there.

Using the meme terminologt that these companies like to use, the PS5 APU peaks at 10 teraflops, while a 2070s ALONE does 7.5. And you can only polish a turd up to a certain point with optimization.

        >which should be able to play this game @4k 120fps native
        >key world SHOULD
        As an idort, I really dislike how disingenuous these console wars have become.
        >current gen consoles are massively underpowered so games perform like shit
        >PC ports of said games are wildly unoptimized so games perform like shit
        It's pretty dogshit regardless of the platform right now. If you're buying games on release (regardless of platform) you're asking to get fricked over.

      >consolegays with sony's balls gargling in his mouth start making obviously false claims
      The vast majority of PCgays hate AMD/Nvidia/Intel, even if they buy their products. But moronic consolegays are always corporate slaves.

    Why did he say it had a mature story when it was edgy but completely vapid?
    Why did he say it would have DMC combat when it's more like a mix of KH and genshin sludge?
    because he was trying to shill his shit game
    Hopefully he gets put back on 14 and never allowed to ruin anything else
    fricking sucks that we get one FF game a decade now and it was this shite

    When ISN'T he lying? Lol
    Rumor has it, the Soken cancer story was a lie too, Nobuo has been sick more than him, but no one cares about the guy that built the musical foundation for hacks like Soken.

    I'm pretty sure the series X could run this shit higher than 720p in combat

    I was actually going to get this game ASAP but this has really put me off. Tell me they can patch it and make it run better? 30fps for fighting is shit and I don’t want to drop to fricking 720p just to achieve actual frames. They managed it for FF7 Remake Intergrade so what changed?

      beyond shit tier engine. I can hardly belive saying this, but the FF16 engine makes UE4 look good

      FF7 Remake is a pretty simple game technologically speaking. Small rooms, overuse of skyboxes and not that many effects all things considered, it's easier to make a game look better when the scale in each frame isn't that high, like how Metroid Prime Remastered can look that good on a Switch since it's made of very small connected rooms and shit

        So are we going to have the same problem with Rebirth next year since there appears to be more open spaces?

          Not necessarily, the environments in the latest trailer doesn't look that gorgeous to be honest, Elden Ring can do 60fps with an open world and Rebirth isn't looking that much better
          The reveal trailer with Cloud and Sephiroth walking through Nibelhein looked a lot better, my guess is they had to downgrade to keep the performance solid

    >Said FF16 will showcase the power of PS5
    >The game barely reached 60 FPS in performance mode and was actually upscaled from 720p

    BUT THAT _IS_ THE POWER OF THE PS5!
    What else did you think the power of the PS5 is?
    They weren't lying.
    The PS5 is so weak that it can't maintain 60fps for a game like this at 720p.

    I think it looks good, and like the way the textures aren't too sharp with them realizing that softer textures add to realistic graphics.
