how does this game run worse on pc than ps3?

go play the ps3

Well, for starters, this game has never run on PS3. You're thinking of The Last of Us, the game that this is a remake of. At a performance level, they naturally have nothing in common.

The other reason is because when they tried to port this game from PS5 to PC, their methodology was just to throw it into a digital blender and let a digital monkey scatter the pieces everywhere. Naturally, when they walked in thirty seconds before release, they realized there was something wrong and tried furiously to digitally duct tape it back together.

So what we have here is the video game equivalent of a shot in a sitcom where the character is on their back, having accidentally tied themselves in a duct tape knot, staring helplessly at another character (us) who just walked in and found out they don't actually have the slightest clue what they're doing.

I think you mean the PS5. It's because of how poorly optimized by Iron Galaxy it was at launch and still is for plenty of people that don't have over the recommended specs as well. I personally have a RTX 2070 Max Q, 16 GB RAM, and 10th Gen Intel Processor.

Or it may be simply a lazy troll attempt.

As this "point of view" appears to be too widespread and I don't think that people are really that ignorant, to have no idea about how this game is NOT 10 years old and not the PS3-version nor the PS4-remaster.

This is the PS4-remaster:

And this is the PC port of the PS5-remake:

Why make a post like this now?
A few things:
1) TLOUP1 is a different game than TLOU, it was originally released on PS5 in 2022. Even if you don't buy into the whole "from the ground up remake" narrative, I think everyone will agree that this is a different version that what launched on PS3 in 2013.
2) TLOU ran at 720p and targeted 30fps but didn't lock to that frame rate, so if you can even manage 900p 60fps, then the game is running better on that PC than on PS3.
3) This game's technical state on PC is now worlds better than March-April, if you are still having problems running the game at PS3 equivalent settings/perf, it's not really ND's fault at this point.

my bad bro I wasn't aware this wasn't a remake of the ps3 version, I don't spend all day on steam forums.

Fair enough.
Even though it's easily researchable and has nothing to do with Steam forums.

You could have found that out by simply googling the game and read the Wikipedia article for example.

That kind of response always annoys me, how did we get from knowing the game is remake all the way to "spending all day on Steam Forums"? You could spend 10 minutes in the forums on one single day and takeaway the fact that it is not the same game as the PS3 version, it's common knowledge and for every place in the forums where someone complains about it being "a 10 year old game", there is a reply from someone else telling them what we told OP.

I never played TLOU or paid attention to the game until today. there is no indication that it's a PS5 port if you look at the store page so it's pretty easy for someone to get it confused.

Well, for the record Sony mostly only ports PS5 games to PC, in some instances, also late gen PS4 games. Even with their flagship IPs, they aren't porting PS3 games to PC for a number of reasons. Pretty much only PS5 games going forward, but it can get a little confusing since there are games like Ghosts of Tsushima which launched on PS4 but then got native PS5 versions, and that game will almost certainly get a PC release in the next year.

@jedimindtrickonyou
Yeah, I do not know but this appears quite fishy to me.
I shouldn't project my way of using the community onto others, but...
At least I wouldn't come to a game hub to inform myself of a game, as I know that the responses about can either be made by trolls who have no idea what they are talking about.

That's some good damage control here. ^^

Look, Steam is no knowledge database. If you come here and ask questions about something that can be found out by searching the internet OR even searching the Steam forums as these statements have been used for trolling since a while, it may come across fishy.
As you would have easily been able to learn about what this game is all by yourself, without asking such a question in this swamp of opinions. ;)

Trust me, self-education can be quite helpful even when it comes to video games.
As it may help you finding out if you like the game or not.
If you trust the opinions of others or blindly follow a hype, you may end up disappointed (I KNOW, what I am talking about as I bought Doom 2016 on the hype, but never found this ego shooter very entertaining )

Most PS games ported have been PS4 games beside TLoU part 1, Returnal, and miles Morales.

With games like Spider-Man, uncharted LL, etc.. they are not PS5 games, they have boosted FPS and LoD but not built to take advantage of the PS5s hardware. A PS5/next gen game can easily be determined by looking at system requirements.

A console is a dedicated OS that doesn't have email, browsers, disk-health management, cheatengines, nexusmods, zoom.

We have proven we can get games to run on mobile-phones and steamdecks.
If you want a dedicated games machine - that's your choice.

But there is no One-for-One comparison between a console and a PC on hardware requirements. That's 'cakeism'.

What are you going on about?

[Lince_SPAIN]

The PS5 remaster was designed around some hardware features that Windows PC lacks.
