Compared to Red Dead Redemption...

[Smite00]

Now I don't claim to know a thing about game development.. but purely from a consumers point of view it's frustrating how a game like Red Dead Redemption 2 can run so smoothly whilst being (in my opinion) one of the most beautiful games to date.

Obviously experiences differ person to person and they're totally different companies. My set up is not top end by any means yet I can run RDR2 on high settings and it runs like a dream and looks stunning. How Respawn/EA can be so utterly useless is beyond me.

Yes, RDR2 is still unbeatable in graphics and optimization and as we are going it seems that it will take a long time for us to get another game like this, we are walking backwards in that department, with games that look much worse for the hardware they ask for and all because of the greed of the developers, hardware manufacturers, game publishers, etc.

Not trying to defend Jedi Survivor here, the state it's in is completely unacceptable. But people tend to forget what a sh!tshow the release of RDR2 on PC was. It had problems with it's launcher, bad and inconsistent performance, horrible AA. Rockstar also had to patch it into a playable state.

To be fair I initially played it on console, got it on PC quite some time after launch so didn't know that. Hopefully Jedi will get there too.

RDR2 is a stunning game, but more specifically for it's time. Also not trying to defend Jedi Survivor here, but it has a much more immense amount of detail and clutter to the graphics than RDR2. RDR2 today can look a bit barren at times, and kinda basic. It's vista's though are still some of the best.

Idk what copy of rdr2 you played because that game is anything but barren and basic, like are you actually serious right now? You could release rdr2 today and say its a next gen game and because of its jaw dropping graphical fidelity and insane attention to detail people would actually believe you.

RDR2 is one of my favourite games of all time. I've played it 5 times on multiple platforms. I'm still in awe of it's graphics to this day. But I'm not stupid enough to fan boy it and dismiss it's own set of issues it has. Besides very specific tailor made cutscenes, character models are lower quality than you are remembering during gameplay. Also being so massively open world, at times it can look like its lacking the finer details and clutter. Jedi survivor being a more enclosed environment allows for finer details. This is just a fact.

RDR 2 was absolutely trash on 2019 december. I remember I can't play with it on Christmas time. I am was so disappointed. So enough this comparing.

On the other hand, Rockstar are the top 1% on video game quality. No doubt.
