Right, thing is, he still has the right to express himself just like all the other guys LITERALLY spamming comparison pics/gifs - do you also have a problem with them ?

In regard to "right", that's a revolving door. If I came here every chance I got to tell you how great the system was, you'd rightfully be tired of it as well, because I already told you this pages and pages ago. Sure, it's my "right", but that doesn't make it any less annoying and off-topic.

The "spamming" of pics/gifs? Share examples of people who have done this nearly every chance they get (and not with something new) and maybe I'll concede to that point.

all the other guys LITERALLY spamming comparison pics/gifs

I'm the only guy 'spamming' comparison gifs here, and at least I try to do with different games each time

In the case of SH2 there could be image artifacts related to PSSR and ones related to Lumen and denoiser. Game is unstable on all platforms but from what we have seen from comparisons it's worse with PSSR.

Why they just didn't switch it back to TSR is beyond me (or at least update PSSR, maybe it works better in newer version like in JS).

This was the one game that disappointed me on pro.
I bought it at launch and waited to play.
It was just bad. They reverted the performance mode back to standard, which is a massive improvement over the pssr implementation. Even that has some issues with ghosting I notice.
And I still think the start of the game looks visually poor on ps5 with all the reflections in the puddles.
Once you get inside the buildings, game starts to look great.
Overall a very poor pro implementation

I strongly disagree.

He, I or whoever spent 800 Eurodollars on something has a right to express his/her dissatisfaction just like you or someone else has a right to express his/her satisfaction - unless of course topics like these are only meant as a huge circle jerk.

Listen, I get what you're saying but I also see what FeelsLike42 is also saying and you know what ? He's not wrong - especially about the supposed "if you're not with us you're against us" tired shit.
This is Reddit behaviour and I personally find it to be inexcusable since we're supposed to be better/more tolerant in here when it comes to differing opinions.

It was the same exact shit when people tried to talk about the PS portal's 59.96Hz stutter - every time it would have been brought up they'd be met with the same type of ridicule in the form of "lol it must be your router", "lol, it's your McDonald's internet !", "sucks to be you, I don't have a problem whatsoever", "lol you guys are imagining things", "lol, you're a MS shill" etc etc - heck, I've been literally told by 1 guy in here to fuck off not once but 3 times a couple of months back and that I had "nefarious" reasons for bringing it up by another one telling me that the reddit guy that brought up the problem to begin with was full of shit and wrong, meanwhile. Sony DID fix the stutter so guess what, it was a real, existing thing.
There just no discussion to be had whatsoever...

At the very least, FeelsLike42 is a genuine guy, he's never trolled, he's never made hit n run posts, he's always polite etc etc, guy bought a product (like all of us) and he's being critical when it comes to its performance - why is that such a bad thing ? 'Cause he's repeating himself ? EVERYONE is repeating the same shit in here with the constant circle jerk and comparison pics/gif spamming ffs and yet, you people have a problem only with him ? C'mon man, you're better than this...

Meanwhile, AW2 still looks like shit, BM Wukong only looks better in its 40fps mode (40fps, in an action game, yeahhh), Heavy hitters like FF16 aren't even patched, Silent hill 2 looks...not good 3 months after its latest patch and the list goes on - are we not supposed to talk about these things ? If not, why ?

It's not our fault that you are somehow dissatisfied with your purchase. Why you think that we are obliged to read your(his) disgruntled moaning every day? Send letters to Sony, at least it will be the right destination.

It goes both ways Goomba, doesn't mean that I - or whoever else - has to also agree with the circle jerk, pic spamming or deferring opinions.

You and 42 simply don’t add anything constructive to the discussion. So yeah when you come in bitching about stuff that is not even true, it gets irritating. I backed off the first time we went at because I thought may have misspoke thinking you were someone else, which looking back I realized now it was indeed you.

Space Marine 2 : another fucking disappoinment, while it does look better now on performance mode (less blurry) the performance is fucking shit compared to the unpatched version averaging at 40-something fps whenever there's action involved, pretty much like the OG PS5 version did basically before the Pro, frankly, it's a joke at this point...

I just can't anymore with these "Pro" patches, and the worst thing is, you don't actually know if they'll make things better or worse, so far, many of them (most I'd say) are a complete and utter disappointment.

I just turned the game off in disgust, Sony HAS to fix this shit - PSSR ain't cutting it and apparently is not "free" as it's severely affecting performance, I'm tired of games that actually perform WORSE than on the base PS5.

A "few lost frames" isn't the same as the game's bad performance on the base console which averages at 40-something fps.

I play games, not watching still pictures.

Non patched version was fine on the pro performance wise.

DF video did come out and disproved these statements straight up. So yeah when I asked what your motivation is coming to a thread to spread misinformation yeah I’m going to call you out.

Man, what the fuck is happening

Sony seriously needs to do something about it at this point, it can't be a coincidence that most games ain't looking good - unless all devs out there are "lazy".

Question: Since I know fuck and all about coding etc, what could be done about it ? What would be Sony's best action right now ?

It really feels like we got Xbox'd/Microsoft'd here lads - we spent 800 big ones for what amounts (so far) to BS hype cause the "gains" are definitely not there for the most part...

Weekly reminder that a Silent Hill 2 patch is STILL M.I.A.

Bloober team still remains to this day technically incompetent

Why, what the fuck is the point of this? You just come into a thread to bitch about a patch that doesn’t exist, calling out the technical incompetence when in captured post above you state that you know dick all about programming. With “weekly reminder”?!

Guys, take your fight to the DMs. Nobody here cares and you’re blowing up the thread. Cheers.

I also was pretty mild with you the last time but, it's like talking to a wall, you take things too personal and also the "leave the multi billion company alone" meme comes into full effect with the likes of you (unfortunately).

Gonna quote my last reply to you :

This is a forum, people in forums discuss things whether you agree with them or not.

If you get triggered or annoyed by...whatever, it means 2 things : A) You should take some days off of it and B) You may be emotionally investing yourself way too much which would bring you again at looking at point (A).

This is no dig and/or a "gotcha" towards you btw, I'm dead serious.

These kind of discussions should not make someone's blood boil, if it does, well...it means there's some other, underlaying problems with said individual, video games should not be a "serious business" where people see boogie men or "agendas" around the corner each and every time.

I tried this angle. You will just be ignored and/or have personal justifications thrown at you about rights, etc.

Really, with every new post, I'm hoping to hear something on Silent Hill 2 or an upcoming game that will have Pro enhancements.

no, you can talk about multi billion dollar company all you want but you need to actually have factual representation behind the shit you’re saying I don’t give a shit about Nintendo Sony or Microsoft. They all are out to make money and representation of the consumers interest is not high at all. That’s not any groundbreaking science that you’re telling us here but this is a thread representing what games have been updated and the things around it not coming in and just randomly bitching about shit that is or is not actually true based off your impressions which you take to be factual, even though they have been counterintuitive and disproven times over again

Agreed, I'd never take things to DMs, not worth it.

Regarding the 2nd paragraph, if you wish for new patches to appear as to make us some of us shut up, trust me, I'd be the 1st in line since I actually spent money on X product which doesn't perform as it should

Having said all this : it's all bullshit man, I don't see the reason why people are popping veins, again, these are frigging video games we're talking about, I get the "repetion" thing but you and others should also try to "get" the reason for the dissatisfaction that over people have.

Maybe it's my age, maybe I'm not emotionally invested nor unhinged like others but, what really displeases me is the fact that once again, you're faced with the fact that people just want to disagree and/or are always in search of the proverbial bogeyman, there's just no middle ground, no kindness, no actual point of discussion, everything has to be a Vs and everyone is quick to throw accusations, epithets etc etc.

And it's not about the internet either, it's just a human thing, everyone just wants to say their piece and they'll happily disagree over agreeing (or trying to find a middle ground) with others, it's a shame...

Anyway, Monkey guy is once again upset , I'll kindly fuck off myself from the thread since I actually have games to finish and today is Sunday after all.

Have fun

The issue remains one of quantity. You keep telling me that you should be able to voice your concerns/opinions, but you've done that. A lot. There isn't a lack of you getting your point across. We get it that some are dissatisfied, they've already told us. Many, many, many times! It's simply reached an "enough is enough" point and people are ready to move on and hear/read about something else, particularly as it pertains to the games. Everytime there's a new post, I'm hoping it's about an updated or upcoming Pro game, not someone's familiar feelings. That's all.

Nope you don't, but when overwhelming evidence supports it, don't be shocked to get backlash on it.

 

[Markio128]

I’m currently playing through Lies of P for the first time (it’s definitely no Bloodborne killer but it’s a decent enough game) and it looks clean and performs really well on the Pro. Not sure how much it has been improved from the base PS5 version though, or if it uses PSSR.

Oh really?

And you are a fucking idiot to assume that.

.where do I even begin? First of all you are the biggest fanboy/shill for Sony and the Pro, consistently, throughout this thread. Every time someone points out a bad patch there you are trying to damage control and even going as far as to spread blatant misinformation

Sorry, he's not the saint you think he is. And spreading blatantly false information, highlighting minor issues and making them out to be larger than the overarching improvements is doing a disservice to anyone interested in potentially picking up a PS5 Pro. All he's doing is taking the cons from DF videos, magnifying them, and not even listening to their own conclusions at the end that talks about how good the improvements are overall.

Apparently, someone doesn't want precious "facts" that you clearly provide in your great images to get in the way of a narrative
