WTF! How does such an ugly game perform THIS BADLY

[Paro]

I'm on an RTX 3080, and I can barely maintain 45 fps at 4k. The game also looks downright HIDEOUS. It's ATROCIOUS quality. It looks like a base PS4 game.

[Snight01]

you gotta watch digital foundry video and set it properly... im on a 2080 ti and i9 10900k i use amd fsr, 4k adaptive resolution performance mode with ps5 settings from digital foundry video (thanks alex).. it runs okay... but theres this.. ugh... weird performance drop after you loop

[VESPA5]

Yep. Hate to say it, but this game doesn't look any better than Prey or Dishonored 2. I wouldn't even go as far as promoting it as "next gen" graphics as the console fanboys would like to call it. It is baffling how so so graphics for a game like this is somehow bringing some players' RTX 3080s to their knees.

waaah, why is my overpriced gpu not performing well enough to output pointlessly high resolution image on my overpriced monitor, waaaaah

base ps4 game is overstating things a bit, don't you think?

in all seriousness, where exactly is the 'next-gen' aspect of this that arkane are so proudly swinging about?

The fact that it is on PS5

I'd say that you guys need glasses or if you have glasses then get better ones, because this game looks great.

You obviously don’t know what a base ps4 game looks like because this looks alot better than that. Go play infamous second son on ps4 and tell me this looks as dated as that.

You gotta be kidding me because Infamouse Second Son looks great even today, and easily better than Deathloop.

Dude im currently doing a play through of infamous and it looks good in this screenshot but its not that detailed compared to deathloop. Infamous is a 2014 game dude and you still honestly believe its more detailed than a next gen 2021 game?

Watch some gameplay of it or better yet play it yourself if you have a ps plus subscription and see.

You did not answer the question, which screenshot looks better?

Deathloop isn't a next gen looking game though, that is the point. Still looks and feels like last gen and in some cases worse than last gen.

So true

[Bastila Shan]

Deathloop definitely looks better, atleast @infant headcrush could provide a better screenshot than a wall

You're trying to play one of the laziest, sloppiest ports in history of a title developed for an AMD-driven $400 console, and you're trying to do so on an Nvidia 3000 series GPU-driven PC. Like you, I foolishly ignored the giant aforementioned red flag and now I'm $60 short too, so, I feel your pain.

What's worse, the $60 was not spent purchasing Deathpoop's release-ready launch build, despite what Steam's storefront might have deceived you in to thinking. That does not exist yet. What you actually paid for was a license to test a public beta. Usually, when it comes to playtesting, you're the one getting paid. But not in this case, my dude. Sorry, but you got straight up ♥♥♥♥♥♥.

Instead of spending hours diagnosing, solving, tweaking, and trying to get this game into a playable state like I did, just shelve it. You should get PAID to be a beta tester, not the other way around. And if you've put in more than 2 hours of work, good luck getting a refund. You won't. Steam's too greedy for that, and what are ya gonna do about it anyways, dispute the purchase with your bank and lose your entire PC library over $60? Nope. Better luck next time, loser -- Steam, Arkane, and Bethesda might as well have been the kids in middle school who beat you up and stole your lunch money. And you'll never get it back, but you're forced to be friends with them anyways because, I mean, what else are you gonna do? Become an Epic Store fanboy?

But hey if it makes you feel any better, I, too, was swindled out of $60 by the miserable crooks responsible for this agonizing port. Sadly, underneath all the ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ is an amazing game, which I hope to enjoy a few months from now -- though I'm not expecting next-gen or even previous-gen graphics. This isn't Metro Exodus Enhanced or Doom Eternal. I'd compare it more to running an emulated PS3 game like Persona on the highest-end PC money can currently buy.
