@JaxonH hell yea. You will absolutely love this game if you’re an Indy fan. Felt like a long lost movie playing through it. I rarely buy a game I’ve already beaten, but a true physical is just too good to be true for a game this good.

I keep looking at some of these trailers and some of the PS5/Switch 2 comparisons for some of these multiplatform titles. I'm wondering whether or not there's much of a point, even now, for having more than just a single hybrid console. Don't get me wrong, you can see the difference in fidelity between the Switch 2 and PS5 versions and the PS5 is not end-game for specs. And when Switch 3 comes around I won't at all be opposed to the idea of the platform continuing to push forward. But also.... how much of that gap really matters when you're deep into a game at couch gaming distance from a ~55-75" TV?

Seems to me that in the Switch era there was this constant game of technical compromise happening with games on the platform. That was always there, even from day 1. It's also something that still exists on Switch 2. The difference is on Switch 2 it's like, instead of getting the axe out to make these games work they're getting out a chisel and some sandpaper. The compromises that exist are the same sort of compromises I'd gladly put up with on PC when I want to eek out more FPS

Pagmata, Indiana Jones, Oblivion.... I'd gladly play these versions of these games

@skywake The issue is that not everyone plays games on their TV at couch distance. A good few people play on a second monitor, or in handheld mode. That being said, I feel like anyone not expecting a compromise to happen on visuals are uninformed on the power of the console. It isn't PS5 or XBOX Series X level hardware. It's PS4 Pro or Series S level.
