No ultrawide.
120 FPS cap for some reason.

Sounds like a Square-Enix quality port in the making.

Sounds like Remake. Still looks and plays great on PC though except for the odd stutter.

yeah no useless features like those. sorry ..its still miles better than the console versions.

 

[Garibaldi]

You could customise on screen NPC count on Remake too. Upto 10.

I just hope I'm not writing custom engine ini files this time.

The area outside Kalm also looked terrible without AO on the PS5. See if they've fixed that. As well as the utterly horrible wood textures in the inn in Under Junon. The environmental textures in general are terrible if I'm honest.

As I expected no UW, which is a real pity as it looks far better in Remake when you use Flawless Wide-screen to enable it along with 120%+ internal resolution to improve the image.

 

[b0uncyfr0]

Eh, 120 max frame rate is alil low. Not much point in using FG then.

Also, no FSR..?

 

[RagnarokIV]

Yeah I'm pretty sure I remember a slider 1-10 with no context on what those numbers mean!

 

[Gaiff]

>Numero graphics options
>3 presets

 

[Xyphie]

How is >120Hz a useless feature? Basically every non-Office monitor ships with 165Hz or higher these days. It's a standard feature at this point.

 

[RoboFu]

>Numero graphics options

plus.. presets plus individual options.

 

[joeygreco1985]

All I need is native 4K after playing that brutally poor PS5 version

 

[Garibaldi]

Yeah I'm pretty sure I remember a slider 1-10 with no context on what those numbers mean!

Hah, yeah tbh it can't any worse that Remake's in-game options. Thank goodness for hook and it's engine config unlocks

 

[DaciaJC]

yeah no useless features like those.

In what world are ultrawide support and unlimited FPS cap "useless features"?

 

[Gaiff]

plus.. presets plus individual options.

Judging by the other games, there are barely options to customize graphics.

yeah no useless features like those. sorry ..its still miles better than the console versions.

 

[JORMBO]

The game looks really good on the Pro. but still has tons of annoying vegetation pop in. I did not see that in this video. It is good they cleaned that up.

 

[ssringo]

Should've added a feature to remove Chadley.

 

[ArtHands]

Eh, 120 max frame rate is alil low. Not much point in using FG then.

Also, no FSR..?

We need at least 240Hz. or at least I need since my rig supports it.

But at least they didn't hold back it to the same fidelity as PS5 Pro so that's a consolation.

 

[Jinzo Prime]

Should've added a feature to remove Chadley.

There's going to be a mod called "Shut up Chadley" as soon as possible.

Also, will probably be a mod that unlocks framerates.

 

[RoboFu]

In what world are ultrawide support and unlimited FPS cap "useless features"?

In a world where most people game in 1080 60 - 120hz according to the latest steam data.

 

[Lootlord]

I love playing at 120 FPS on my 144Hz display

 

[b0uncyfr0]

We need at least 240Hz. or at least I need since my rig supports it.

Some modder will find a way to go past 120. Whether it'll be janky or not is another question

 

[DenchDeckard]

Only 120FPS...

Still, PC stay winning.

 

[mèx]

120 FPS cap is a bummer. Looking good otherwise.

 

[Xyphie]

In a world where most people game in 1080 60 - 120hz according to the latest steam data.

You can get a 27" 1440p 165Hz IPS monitor for $149. This is about the lowest-end monitor for gaming you can buy pretty much. It's not 2015 anymore when this kind of monitor was $800. Stop acting like a retard.

 

[Killer8]

Trailer was probably strategically cut footage in between the bouts of horrendous Unreal Engine PC stutter.

 

[Lucifers Beard]

This looks great. Very tempted to pick this one up, play 10 hours and never touch it again.

 

[Fess]

Nice! And Tifa is looking particularly good, might not even need modding

Alright just because something is available doesn't mean that the majority of people are using it. Since you called him a retard you'll probably pull out the poor comment too but not everybody upgrades their stuff and it's been proven over and over that 1080p is still the most common resolution at least with Steam users.

And before you even go there, I use a 1440p 240hz OLED.

Yes this is the real feature of this port that sets it apart from consoles:

mods

 

[Buggy Loop]

No ultrawide.

 

[daninthemix]

Sadly there’s a good chance this is true.

 

[Kenpachii]

Yea will skip, no ultrawide limited to 120 fps, no thanks.

 

[Idleyes]

I'm playing the hell outta this on PC.

 

[adamsapple]

Ridiculous that the enhanced lighting wasn't a part of the PS5 Pro upgrade.

 

[Go_Ly_Dow]

Looks like they sorted the foliage pop in

 

[Jinzo Prime]

This looks great. Very tempted to pick this one up, play 10 hours and never touch it again.

I'm usually like that with open world games, except BotW. I liked that you could just go directly to the final boss once you get bored.

There will be an ultra wide mod or Special K injection for it most likely.

 

[nikos]

No ultrawide.
120 FPS cap for some reason.

Sounds like a Square-Enix quality port in the making.

Yet we get useless “enhancements” like graphics presets. Who’s using those on PC?

Disappointing but expected.

 

[sendit]

Yea will skip, no ultrawide limited to 120 fps, no thanks.

This has to be a joke. No ultrawide support for a PC release....Japanese developers suck.

 

[DaciaJC]

In a world where most people game in 1080 60 - 120hz according to the latest steam data.

... and for everyone else?

Imagine dictating PC options only based on what would be applicable to "most people."

"Well, most people have the equivalent of a GTX 30-whatever or lower, so may as well not bother having very high or ultra graphics settings."
"Well, most people have only SDR monitors, so forget about adding HDR support."
"Well, most people play with M&KB, so we're not going to spend any time making sure our game is gamepad-compatible."

What sort of dumbass logic is that?

 

[rofif]

The game already looks amazing on ps5 so pc will be good.

Ridiculous that the enhanced lighting wasn't a part of the PS5 Pro upgrade.

Yep this is really weird. It’s probably not a big deal.
The only thing graphically bad in rebirth on ps5 is lod on the clock tower in kalm and the terrible texture and graphics of the dressing booth on beach level. It’s the new remake door. Not fixed in pro

 

[Nickolaidas]

Regardless of the port's quality, I like the fact that Square is taking Rebirth's marketing of its PC release a LOT more seriously than they did with Remake.

Also, two weeks.

 

[hyperbertha]

This has to be a joke. No ultrawide support for a PC release....Japanese developers suck.

Ultrawide users are what? 1 percent of pc users?

 

[hussar16]

These games should be upgraded to unreal engine 5. I think it was mistake to keep it on unreal 4. Fans did not see a big wow upgrade and the sales were not good

 

[Just_one]

where is the option for topless tifa?

 

[GymWolf]

The trash milking operation part 2, now in ultrawide.

Wait...

 

[StereoVsn]

So what’s the chance SE eliminates stutters?

 

[Minsc]

We had 120fps backin the 90s, why we still stuck at that low framerate?

 

[Bojji]

The game already looks amazing on ps5 so pc will be good.

It looks like early PS4 game.

 

[Garibaldi]

Ultrawide users are what? 1 percent of pc users?

PS5 Pro users were what 1% of Sony customers? They still made a patch for it.

I understand why they didn't bother since the game is cutscenes heavy and reframing them is a load of work. Remake's hack has problems (characters appearing from nowhere, model textures unloading, doors disappearing) on stuff that's supposed to be out of frame, but this whole schtick I hear time and time again about low user percentage is not a good excuse.

 

[rofif]

It looks like early PS4 game.

Got some bad points sure, but it looks phenomenal if you are not too anal about it.
