I just think it’s disappointing that the game runs so poorly on consoles that aren’t the Pro.

Genuinely feels like the base consoles are even less than an afterthought.

The game genuinely seems cool, but I’m really hoping they optimize it for the consoles the majority of the install base has. I’m waiting until the game has been finished before I pick it up. I just don’t think it was ready at launch.

Is it just me or is AI, like 3D printing and NFTs before it, an answer in search of a question?

Like, I’m glad tech bros constantly shove it down our throats.

Might get overshadowed by Crimson Desert, but thanks for sharing. I’m glad to see the game looks mostly good on current gen!

Goes to show they were hiding the base console versions, IMO.

Frankly this is my main issue with the mid gen upgrade consoles. I think it’s cool that it’s out there for added features, but for someone who can’t always swing the latest and greatest it feels like the developer did this with no regard to how most people will play the game, on the base console. Thats not on Sony, but it seemed pretty evident Pearl Abyss didn’t want the base PS5 game getting out there.

I maintain that I think this game seems pretty cool, the way John talks about it has me pretty sold on it for what it’s worth. I just think I’ll get it on sale after it’s had many patches.

You rock, Tom. Thank you!

Great write up, Alex.

Hope your back is doing better these days, I know that kind of pain is a real challenge.

Love the work you guys do. Thanks for the post. I watched the video and man, I really need to play this game. As one of the (seemingly) few games that makes UE5 seem like a good idea and the kind of game I thoroughly enjoy, I'd be all over it if I wasn't enveloped in my first ever run of Skyrim. Soon!

I watched John and Oliver’s video yesterday and thought: it runs better on console than a lot of the other UE5 titles, it seems.

Haven’t played HOL2 yet, but it does seem to me that UE5 has been sort of disappointing this console gen. Not saying I haven’t enjoyed games with UE5, but it seems like other game engines manage better than UE does at this point. I think about Decima with Sony, seems like it’s a solid engine.

Great read, Rich. I was surprised to see our friends playing on Series S would be getting such a quality experience as that hasn’t been the standard in a lot of ways.

Side note, this article is going to confuse everyone who says you guys don’t like Xbox.

Excellent work here, Ollie! Thank you for the vid. Glad to see this turned out well on Switch 2. Now that I am finally playing Skyrim (been a running gag with all my friends) maybe I'll finally play FF7 remake when I finish that.

Great year for Nintendo launches.

I missed the vote, but I mostly agree with these results.

I'm in a weird spot where I can't be excited for GTA 6 yet. I'm sure I'll get there, but it just doesn't feel real, so I'm not particularly enthused about it yet.

Sounds like they are doing a great job on these. Glad to see this.

This was the highlight of the announcements to me. Hoping it turns out as good as Control. Easily one of the best games in the last several years.

Switch 2 has some surprising strength. Really like it so far.

I can't wait until AI goes the way of NFTs and Crypto.

My man John has somehow gotten me more excited than I already was for this release.

Thanks to Sam for the write up!

I really enjoyed Shredder's Revenge. Might have to go ahead and pick this one up. Love the art and a good beat 'em up is always welcome.

Ya know, my wife suddenly developed an inability to play house flipper 2 a month or so ago. I wonder if this issue caused that problem for her. The game would get stuck in an infinite loading screen when she would go between locations.

Watched the video yesterday as a privileged supporter of DF and I think I may plop some money down on this one if I get some cash for the holidays.

Got a great giggle out of the tagline. Thanks for that.

I think this could kill the Xbox entirely.

First vid I watched on the new site. Solid work as always!

I’ve loved my base PS5. Hope it hangs in there. Never felt like the Pro upgrades were worth much.

I'm so happy! I love the hookshot sites so this is great for me. Been a fan of DF for about 10 years now and jumped on the supporter train when you all went independent. Very excited for this and look forward to visiting the site regularly!
