Look on the bright side, climate change will probably reduce our standard of living by an unimaginable degree long before most of our senses have a chance to noticeably degenerate.

I was able to hear the full range except 22 kHz but I had to turn my volume way up.

Think I got something out of the 22 kHz range as well but it was more "felt" than heard so I don't know if it was psychosomatic or not.

I can hear 14khz at normal volumes and 15khz at high volume.

If they had March 10th up as a date, that at least tells us the PC port's probably near completion. It won't be a case like Revengeance where we got the PC port like a year later, at least.

Found this from the Gematsu article comments. So either the PC release got pushed back after those trailers were made, or SE is just gonna pretend that the PC version doesn't exist until the last possible moment.
That and the fact SE hasn't (yet) said anything about the steam release date being incorrect gives me slight hope, but i'm still preparing for the worst.

I would think it would be easy enough to edit the date of the Steam release, especially considering these trailers were made 3-4 days ago. Even just a PC/Steam logo would fit if they have no specific launch date, but with Squeenix's lack of promotion of the PC version already I'm guessing a Sony marketing deal. Though that being said this whole mess is making me anxious as hell about the release.

Any specifics on what the PS4 performance will be like? I didn't play the demo.

After playing Nioh I have realized I am pretty much OK with the resolution going to zero and LOD six feet away from me turning into a slideshow as long as it's 60fps

Demo used dynamic resolution to maintain 60fps, like Nioh. Except it doesn't seem to need to dip below 900p, whereas Nioh spends a lot of time at 720p. So that's nice.

I'm getting in on this instead of waiting and getting a free Emil t-shirt. Only around £7 more is too much to pass up for a couple of weeks early.

Looks like the HK store isn't preloading though so I won't be able to play until Thursday my time probably, because it'll probably be middle of the night when it updates for me. (Around 5pm PST I think is when the window for HK store updates begins)

Could be your headphones can't handle the higher frequencies so they're crackling.

I could hear up to 20 myself, maybe 21 but at that point it was hard to tell if I was actually hearing the sound or the track turning on then off. 22 is out.

Mr E posted:

Same. My right ear can hear higher frequencies than my left, but my left ear can hear lower frequencies than my right, so it's a weird dynamic where I can hear bass better on my left and high pitches better on my right.

Digital Foundry did a tech breakdown for the demo, they don't cover everything but that's cause it's only a demo, and they give you framerates and pixal counts and all that fancy poo poo.

I can barely hear 17 kHz, and then all the way to 22 kHz I can hear/feel a sound being played. I'm not sure how they were supposed to sound originally. It's like a soft, barely audible tone as if somebody put a pillow over the speaker.

I caved and bought the HK PSN card.

It was $14 more than what I would have paid for on Amazon. Whatever today is my birthday I'm gonna splurge and play the game early!

I guess the unlock isn't until about 5PM PST? Hope my download speeds aren't too terrible.

It'll probably be uploaded to the HK store tomorrow morning (HK time), which the earliest time they list for updates is 9am HKT (about 2am GMT), which I think is around 5PM PST Wednesday, yeah.

Saw someone streaming a JP copy with English text earlier so let any fears be assuaged regarding that. The HK version is listed with English/Japanese on Playasia and the PS Blog for HK too so it won't be different. Didn't stop in long but there appears to be some appearance customisation in regards to fashion accessories.

I have no idea this is true, but I read elsewhere that it's a thing that with pre-orders on PSN, it takes a while to swap over from pre-order mode to released and during that time, the product can't be bought.

I guess it's feasible that a person may need to do it manually and if so, there's like 7 or so hours until 9am JP time when you might be able to expect it to happen. I'd just check in every now and then.

Yeah it's a little weird that they can't fluently switch from preorder to purchasable. I'm also terrible at using the jp search bar, nier is hard to find that way, but at least google can find the relevant pages. Or maybe Sony's search system is poo poo.
