Demo spoilers you can see and hear actual grunt Cloud at the same time when crawling at the burning building. It's also funny how blatantly non-Cloud he sounds like during the flashback. I can't imagine having played this without the OG.

Levantine posted:I thought that was really clever, knowing what's (probably) coming. I genuinely hope the story goes a little more than off the rails at some point given the setup in the last game. I want it to lean hard into its weird. The 21st I think the legitimately valid piece of criticism so far that I'm seeing and partly thought in the moment myself is the crawling scene drug out too long *only* because of how long the villagers stood right in front of Sephiroth, guns in hands, without a single shot fired off. I understand being paralyzed with fear but it was a little too slow.

cock hero flux posted:i'm assuming that cloud kills aeristh like he almost does in the original like 5 seconds before sephiroth shows up Massive spoiler from the trailer There's what looks to be an attempt by Cloud at intercepting Sephiroth, but if you go frame-by-frame, a few things stand out: the whispers are still there; there's some green, magical light around the hilt of the Buster Sword, and he also looks like he'd be a fraction of a second too late. Now whether or not Sephiroth is actually trying to skewer Aerith at that exact moment in time, who knows.

It defaults to graphics mode so make sure you go into the settings to change it. It runs flawlessly in performance mode.

SyntheticPolygon posted:I think much like Remake 1, Remake 2 will probably also have some weird graphical (or I guess performance if you are in graphics mode) inconsistencies that will be sorta strange or disappointing. They had Integrade to practice with the PS5 but that was a much smaller game so would not be surprised if not everything is as ironed out as they wanted. It's ok, in 6-7 years we'll be able to buy the full trilogy for the PS6 remastered with UE5 and merged into one game with new content throughout, and we'll happily spend $100 on it.

Performance mode is getting graphical improvements that will be in the update on the 21st (and the full game, obviously).

stev posted:Is this the first time all the 'don't worry, this is just a demo, the full game will look better' comments could turn out to be true? The only thing that really bugged me is how lovely some of the NPCs look. That and Aerith always looking weird in very specific lighting.

grieving for Gandalf posted:I didn't play the demo but the lighting on Cloud struck me as really weird in that first trailer with Cloud and Sephiroth doing a move together Yeah, that's exactly what I'm talking about. It happens to Cloud too sometimes. Aerith is just the worst for it.

It's very possible that (making poo poo up here) the game "ends" with Aerith dying or whatever and then there's like a few hours of Zackworld. Technically speaking the progress of the normal FF7 game as we know it will still have stopped there.

Game is updated but I'll load it up in a bit. The review embargo is up in just over 24 hours and then it's time to start being extremely cautious about spoilers cause I'm sure one of the idiot reviewers will say way too much.

Took a couple comparison screenshots. The difference is extremely obvious when you compare them side by side as there's some kind of blurring/smearing going on in performance mode.

All we've seen so far in the demos are mountains and/or wastelands so the brown and gray everywhere isn't helping. I might actually try and tolerate the graphics mode just because the smearing on performance mode is kinda bad.

The synergy skills seem to really go against the nature of the easy mode regardless of whether you need those skills at all in order to to be effective, since you'd have to be blocking to see them. Other than that, there feels like a lot of poo poo going on but it's also because it's all thrown at you at once.

There's definitely a lot of anger about performance mode after the changes which is honestly quite justified; the blurring looks like poo poo and a fair amount of detail is lost. The more screenshot comparisons you see, the worse it is. Based on what I'm reading, it's a TAA implementation issue. I'm gonna end up just playing it in graphics mode unless something major somehow changes in the next week, which it likely won't.

I must be in a really weird minority because I didn't think FF16's perf mode was that bad and it's what I used throughout. Rebirth's is way worse to me.

Bland posted:No, you're right, it was nowhere near as blurry as Rebirth. Yeah, I'm not exactly sure what people think is so horrific about it beyond maybe a lack of slider options (based on what I read).
