I've heard about this game, is it any good?

He has videos showing you how to setup the emu, including where to download itā¦
Last video I saw is it booted thatās about it.

Yes, it is. I don't recommend it though unless you're willing to tweak around with patches and stuff to make it work properly, like the sound glitching or vertex explosions, whatever. It's not a big deal, especially if you're familiar with emulating stuff, but it's not in a state yet where I would want to actually play it. It runs about as well (probably slightly better) than on PlayStation now, but there's still room to improve, and I'm not in a hurry. Tried it just last week actually.
also, whatever that OP video is, it seems like clickbait bullshit, so I won't give that shithead youtuber the click. I apologize if I'm wrong, but sadly I'm probably not.

Your info is a bit out of date.

Itās not clickbait, but my problem with him is he keeps bouncing from game to game, however I get why heās doing it. It would just be better for my personal bias if he focused on BB.
Anyway, heās added dynamic shadows to the game and injected an AA solution through reshade and AO. So heās not messing around, at least.

The guy shows the most recent improvements:
- Dynamic shadows
- Parallax Occlusion Mapping
- Temporal AA
- Working fire, smoke, fog, ...
- Added lights
- New lights interaction with the environment where the base game had none
I wouldn't call that clickbait...
Also, the guy is running it only at 1080p because he has only a 2060 gpu or something like that. So for people with superior gpus it will look and run much better.
The game is already playable from start to finish and the ShadPS4 emulator and these projects are progressing at an amazing speed. I bet it will be perfect before Christmas.

The best they've ever made.

Makes sense, it looks blurry as fuck even for 1080p

True that! I tried a few after Bloodborne and nope! Bloodborne has soo much soul and feels

Best world/story/lore, best artstyle, best gameplay.

Indeed! I love the art style so much I bought a official Bloodborne Lithograph and it's still on my wall!
I could only imagine what Bluepoint could do with that artstyle and extra ps5/pc horsepower

Well, in my case I spent $70 on it in 2014 but didn't play much further than the first area because I couldn't stomach the royally fucked up framepacing, the terrible aliasing, the abhorrent chromatic aberration, the low resolution and the (sub)30fps.
So for people like me that never played it it's gonna be a blast.
P.S. Oh, and fuck Sony and their pointless remasters.

As a person who has platinum in this game. (My favorite game in the Souls series). I don't remember how many times I've completed it, but definitely more than 10 (I have a tradition of completing it on my birthday). I will say this, I don't want a remaster of this game, it's too late for that. If Sony wants to do something with this game, it already needs a full-fledged remake, just like it was done for Demon Souls. It will be much more useful for the game than just a remaster, and I think there will be significantly more people willing to buy it than a regular remaster.

This is funny coming from a dude praising the PS4 to play the exact same games with upscaling they've had for 4 years.

And their plan seems to be doing that to sell the PS6. But hey, aren't you 'excited' about the Horizon Zero Dawn remaster? yeah, fuck Sony...

News - Bloodborne on pc now boots via emulator
I read it's only took a month from first booting bloodborne to actually starting the game and it loading actual graphics and is playable albeit in an awful state. This means bloodborne will be fully playable in the next few months for sure. The dream is alive! Oh and Lance mcdonald's...

Impressive! Whatās the framerate and howās the frame pacing?
Yeah. No issues with chromatic aberration and resolution and aliasing, I just canāt deal with the low fps and constant micro stutters, I get nauseous looking at that jerkiness.

Some people like to replay games they love. Crazy, I know.

what did i praise? lol
did you quote the wrong person?
That goes for every bloodborne "replay the same game" individual who makes monthly thread about the state of an old game that plays completely fine in its OG state.
it's one of my fav games ever but a lot of you are crazy
I don't replay games, if i do, especially games like BB, they're boring and easy because i will always remember everything about the game. It's brainless replaying games for me, unless they're 20 years old or completely remade. But i don't lose sleep over that shit or think about it a single game lol

Highly subjective part in red
It's nice that you have a low bar for performance, but you're only right about your opinion.
I'm curious about the other rules you have for life. Do you rewatch films or listen to albums again? Or is it a one and done situation unless you've forgotten? How about books?

There are a lot of people more passionate about the game than you are, clearly.

It does play good on ps5. Sure itās not 4k60 like we want but itās the most responsive 30fps game Iāve ever played probably and some frame pacing issues donāt bother me.
10 years ago we played it on worse tvs and had no problems. Today all of sudden itās unplayable? Bs. Itās just an old game that could use a remaster

I don't think it had anything to do with having a low bar for performance.
I replayed BB multiple times, and it's performance never bothered me.
It plays well.
30fps games can play well, and for most part, they do. Only in the current gendo i have issues with some 30fps modes, because some devs seem to not know how to de rease the input latency, making the games feel horrible to play
One example is the demon's souls remake.
While j can play bloodborne, dark souls, etc perfectly at 30fps, demon's souls remake felt horrible in the og ps5.

Yeah, other people do though.

What do you mean about TVs? It wasn't the early days of LCD - what am I missing? The response time of OLED? From what I understand that makes 30fps games look worse.
From day 1 people talked about the performance of BB. It's always been an area for improvement with that game.
Not many (if any) say it's unplayable, but when games are being remastered left right and centre one that would actually benefit being left out is a shame.
Alright, swap low for lower. The point remains the same: not everyone has the same standards. Some people are more sensitive to frame pacing, stutter/judder etc.

I mean input lag. 10 years ago crappy lcd tvs had worse input lag.... unless people had oled back then but it was very expensive.
And oled pixel response does not make games look worse in motion if these games have motion blur. It only makes raw 30fps looks a bit more "sharp/stuttery" but bloodborne looks fine.
You are saying from day1 people were calling out BB performance... man all I remember was people talking about games back then. now it's all bout performance, pixel counting and drama if game drops to 59fps. Gamers are weak

Loads of people on gaf talked about the obvious stuttering in Bloodborne. The frame pacing was always an issue
rofif
Canāt Git Gud
I know it's there but it a stutter here nad stutter there. It's not something that's constantly happening in your face. play ff XV 30fps mode for that on ps5... that's unplayable.
I've finished BB couple of times. Then I went with ps4 to my buddy and he finished it couple of times. it anything, we were talking how awesome the game looked in 2017(when I got ps4)... nothing about it running badly

If the original game didn't play great why are people still bleating about it not being ported 9 years out from initial release?
The demand for it to be remastered/ported just shows how completely bullshit the whole frame-rate/resolution purism angle is. If the original 30fps was as ruinous as so claimed, why would there be such demand for a "broken" game?
There's no question that higher frame-rates look more visually appealing, but by the same token, the argument that Souls' games are in any way spoiled by running at 30fps is also demonstrably untrue based on their reception at launch. There is no secret "low frame rate cabal" generating all those 90%+ reviews and great word of mouth! They are real responses from real players.

Bullshit lol. Everyone was shitting on Bloodborne's framepacing issues and long load times on release.
Also people were talking about performance way before Bloodborne. Remember Blighttown?
Don't try to put the game's shortcomings as if they were the fault of the player for having some standards by calling them "weak", that's ridiculous man.
rofif
Canāt Git Gud
eh whatever I don't care. None of this ruined the game for me back then. Not even blighttown. it does not matter in the slightest. Maybe it matters to fake gamers who care more about performance than the game. At lest it's very responsive.
Just get a fucking pc and shut the fuck up then.
What kind of gamer skips a game and complains all the time because it stutters here and there. Find some real problems.
I would love 4k60 remaster like anyone else, so what are we even talking about here

0 standards lol. Dude who cares about quality just consume.

0 standards? lol who cares about your standards.
You can sit there bitching and miss out on some of best games ever because they are 30fps... meanwhile I've played and enjoyed these games times and times over.
And I care about the quality but it's not above games and never will be.
edit: bloodborne at 480p is still better than horizon forbidden west at 8k120fps.

I didn't miss out. I still played and loved the game, but that performance was an issue that never left my mind. To see Bloodborne at higher framerates with proper frame pacing and without terrible IQ. We should all want that for such an awesome game
