For those rebuying. . ..

[Charlywood]

How are you justifying rebuying for PC, when you can just replay on ps5?
I'm asking solely because I'd like to know and would love a decent excuse to get it on Steam. Game was one of my favs last year. Thanks all.

But like, do we really think it'll be THAT much better than ps5?

Yes better than the PS5 pro too, and easily. Pop in has been eliminated on ultra settings, which alone makes it better

I mean i know im gona play the entire game whit Tifa and Aerith on theyr swimsuit costumes hehe.

[The Ultimate Despair]

I justify it with the fact my PS5 has died and I was forced to rush it lol.. I feel like it's a pretty decent reason.

[aphex]

Love the game from the original so play it straight away on ps5 now available on platform i use most so buying it again

[PERKLESS WARRIOR]

I haven't bought the game on PS5 but I do have one. My justification for holding out is better graphics and modding.

[Charlywood]

ngl someone gonna have to share that taki from soul caliber tifa mod when it comes in rebirth

Relaxed playthrough using wemod and cheats. finished 3 times now on my ps5/pro.

I don't want to spark console wars, but if you have a strong PC, all consoles are absolute garbage, that's why.

High framerate high refresh rate HDR GSYNC OLED monitor with mods and Reshade with custom profiles and LUT, that's how I'm playing all my games. Compared tot hat, a PS5 looks more like a PS3.

In fact out of the box most PC games also look quite crap, with their poor color grading and vaseline look given by TAA. At least I don't have to put up with low framerates and upscaling. Luckily, Reshade makes the game look sharp and much better.

Now if you don't have a strong PC, you can greatly enjoy gamming on a console. Gaming is great!

By telling myself if we help push console sales it will drive the better PC port to being released.

[Billy Blaze]

Seems like you already got the game.

I haven't bought it yet, will do shortly before release.
I have it on PS5 but only played through the first region and a bit of the second region.
Since I hate playing an inferior version of a game, I lost interest as soon as the PS5 Pro came into view... so I would have to wait till I bought that thing in order to play the rest of the game.

Well, since a few days, I own a fairly decent PC, and before buying a Pro, I simply buy this game a second time.
Plus the added benefits of having mods... maybe.

Same thing with "Elden Ring".
I own it on PS5 without the DLC, but with this new PC, I wanna get it a second time with DLC.
Also, I downloaded it from somewhere first, just to check how my PC handles it... well, could play with everything on Ultra settings.
It looked better and ran better than on PS5... and again, I don't wanna play an inferior product.

Kinda like playing something on the "Switch" till a version for other consoles or PC gets released... at this point, the "Switch" version can F off.

EDIT: Not 'inferior product' but more like an 'inferior way to play the game'.

4k 60fps. The 60fps mode looked like garbage on ps5.

High framerate, ultrawide and mods. Plus I’m interested to see the lighting and asset improvements.

60fps required too much sacrifice to image quality on PS5, it obscured the art.

Ultrawide is a transformative experience. My TV and monitor are both hooked up to my PC, and offer nearly identical picture quality and high refresh (65” Samsung s90c QD-OLED and 49” g95sc QD-OLED) but the monitor is my preferred screen for games for its aspect.
Ultrawide may not be officially supported but it’s practically a given it will be modded in,

The modding potential and PC platform in general will pay dividends in the long run. I revisit favorite games many times over the course of decades. PC future proofs a purchase in a way no other platform can

For me the visuals were just too blurry on PS5. I just sold off my PS5 copy and plan to get it on Steam for that reason.
I was halfway through the game. So starting over and buckling down on the game without poor visuals sounds good to me.
I don't know if I would rebuy it if I had it digitally on PS5 and couldn't get some money back on it. But since I got it on disc, reselling it got me most of the money back for the current Steam price. So I won't feel like I'm wasting much money with the platform swap.
