TLDR

-no frame gen
-no fsr
-no xess
-cut-scenes capped at 60fps
+decent frame rate
-terrible 1% lows
-character faces still look terrible in gameplay
+game has shader comp
+has direct storage
- runs badly on handhelds

Its hard to judge before actually playing it but the pc port appears working at least what is more then can be said for FF16 running at 20fps on a 4090 but at least from this it looks okish? At least that if this person is telling the full picture but it seems pretty no bias and detailed enough

It has DLSS frame gen, not no frame gen. And I ran 60FPS in FFXVI on 4070 Ti, so dunno what was wrong with your 4090.

Other games run fine for me. Looking it up online others 4090 combined with the top end pc still cannot hit 60fps in ff16 and then is in the least demanding areas so even if I was getting the same fps as everyone else 16 still isn't good. Considering the fact no game has issues for me that is still a ff16 issue even if others dont have it



edit: One important to note about FF16 is that every area is very inconsistent. Some areas may be like 70 but others are like 15fps. Just look at the areas in the demo and compare it to lost wing. The 20fps number I gave wasn't from Lostwing but its just a example

i believe in the modders. They are always the ones fixing modern games on PC nowadays

SE is absolutely atrocious with their PC ports, so idk why anyone was expecting some crazy exception with Rebirth. It looks like they made improvements since Remake but nothing mind blowing

I returned my steamdeck ages ago because how many issues I had but there are millions of PC handheld gamers out there. Rebirth is not exactly a super duper top end graphical showcase it is pretty last gen looking so no I am not trying to play peak gaming on a little handheld

Shader compilation? In a videogame? Really?

Next thing you are going to tell me is that my PC needs electricity.

After how ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ of a port Intergrade was this realy shouldn't shock you.

And that was a port of a PS4 game. This is a PS5 game.

I would agree that SE needs to do better, but this isn't news.

Oh I haven't seen anything use Direct Storage yet. Time to get my Samsung 990 Pro's working!

At least the image quality does in fact look better on PC, compared to PS5 console.

This is it. That's the reason im getting this game in PC only, mods. Got burnt in underwhelming performance in console already.

I don't mock websites most of the time.

But that site published an article about the game listing lack of full screen exclusive mode as a negative. Something obsolete in modern games and a nonsensical request for DirectX 12.

Then rather than just admitting the mistake, the author posted that "well it looks like DirectX 11 and lacks options." I had to do a double take at the ridiculousness.
