that is the talking points third party developers will use as to why they using key cards then physical carts when reality for most it is the cost that is the main reason for key cards..
Unfortunately, the open world comes at a hefty cost, and that debt is paid with performance problems on both base and PS5 Pro consoles.
The move to Unreal Engine 5 has not been kind to the frame rate. Stutters and frequent frame drops are unavoidable in both performance and resolution modes.
Everything runs fine in confined spaces, but that smoothness gradually degrades as effects start filling the screen, bigger fights ensue, or co-op partners join the fray. Whenever Borderlands 4 should be at its chaotic best, performance is at its worst.
what is going to happen when the ps6 and new xbox come out we will be back where switch 1 was left behind.. currently most switch 2 games are 30 fps the compromise that had to be made to have a playable port of quality
getting the switch 1 physical edition day one i am a collector even though i already have mario galaxy on the 3d all stars collection i want galaxy 2 physically..
@DaniPooo difference is dragon quest 3 hd-2d came out before the switch 2.. the other games came out after switch 2 arrived.. that is why square-enix says buy the version you want..
going to have to double dip get the physical switch 1 version as a collector and buy the key card version for switch 2 to play the game to take advantage of the better graphics and frame rate..
i will be very interested in how well these trilogy of games sell on switch 2 will nintendo only fans feel the love of final fantasy or has that love disappeared over time..
is this reimagined of the game made easier? i hope not i enjoyed this game for the incredible length it took me forever to finish it on the ps1 back in the day.
i will wait and hope square enix changes it's mind and patches the switch 1 version if not i might have to double dip and buy the physical switch 1 version since i am a collector and buy the key card version for switch 2 to play it at better performance..
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XlKCBGzrB1I digital foundry very impressed with switch 2 port.. we should not take leaked early versions of the game as the final product i'm sure elden ring will also be much better then the video we saw earlier..
i seen more youtube videos of side by side comparisons to the ps5 version switch 2 is certainly playable but the 30 fps and graphics are obvious not good..
i will wait awhile no rush to buy this game and see if square-enix changes it's mind and offers a patch for the switch 1 version like they did for dragon quest 3 ..
