HDR ON XBOX ONE X BUT NOT PC AND PS4 PRO!!!

[NativeGamer081]

THIS IS WRONG AND SHOULD BE FÛÇKING ILLEGAL. Rise of Tomb Raider, Sea of Theives, NBA 2K17, Recore, Warframe, World of Tanks, Tom Clancy's Ghost Recon: Wildlands, Black Desert Online, Call of Duty: Infinite Warfare, Dead Rising 4, Forza Horizon 3, Gears of War 4, Hellblade: Senua's Sacrifice, L.A. Noire, Mafia III, Minecraft, No Man's Sky, PLAYERUNKNOWN'S BATTLEGROUNDS, ReCore, Snake Pass, The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt and now Nier: Automata! The above games all have HDR on XBOX ONE X but not PC!!!
This pratice has got me sick to my stomach and I have a migraine while typing this!! I'm getting the ASUS PG27UQ 4K HDR 144Hz monitor, so of course this pisses me off. I don't want to spend $2000 on a monitor and not being able to use it to it's full potental. I have a really big feeling there is a contract between Microsoft and certain developers to only include HDR on XBOX ONE X. Once again this pratice should be illegal. PC, PS4 PRO, XBOX ONE X all support HDR, all multi platform games should include HDR on all platforms!!! Kingdom Hearts 3 was annouced on XBOX ONE X and it's going to really really ♥♥♥♥ me off even more if It has HDR but not on PS4 PRO. Come on, Kingdom Hearts has always been a Sony exclusive with only a few games on Nintendo, the fact of HDR being only on XBOX ONE X, well there is something seriously wrong with that picture. Jurassic Park Evolution also will lack HDR on PC, but has it on XBOX ONE X and PS4 PRO.

Just look at this tiny library of HDR games on PC https://pcgamingwiki.com/wiki/Glossary:High_dynamic_range_(HDR)

Now PS4
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_PlayStation_4_games

And look at how much more is on XBOX ONE vs PS4 and PC

Once again all platforms support HDR and all multiplatform games should have HDR support on all platforms. All 3 platforms support HDR 10 and the DCI-P3 and Rec. 2020 colorspace, there is no excuse for developers not to support HDR on all platforms for their multi-platform games.

This pratice should be illagal and should be reported to Federal Trade Commission and European Commission just like how Nvidia GPP was.

Oh no... not HDR.... whatever will i do without HDR.... my life is now over....

[NativeGamer081]

No because PC still performs better LMFAO!

Enjoy your artifact filled, HDR with a real contrast ratio of only 1000:1. What a waste of 2000$
Get a decent high refresh rate VA monitor instead.

This will not magically make SDR games into HDR games. At most with the April Update to Windows 10 the OS will tonemap the SDR output to the HDR range, so it will not show up as faded or washed out as it otherwise would. That, however, isn't the same result as you would get if the game itself actually outputted colors in the HDR space.

It's basically like playing a 30 FPS game at 60 Hz vs. playing a 60 FPS game at 60 Hz. The former obviously doesn't look the same as the latter, despite them both outputting 60 Hz.

I 100% agree. My rage inside has no bounds for companies that support these scummy practices. Only supporting HDR on 1 platform (or only on consoles) is among the worst grievances a company can make, especially when it makes such a difference in the game's visuals. A company only supporting HDR on 1 platform (or only on consoles) is a good way to lose my business forever. I seriously hate all companies that do this and I truly hope that they all suffer immense financial setbacks for their horrible and disgustingly heinous actions. Every time I see a game that supports HDR on console but not on PC, I am immediately furious at their atrocious and disgraceful behaviour. It makes me sick to see these companies to repeatedly insult the PC gaming community through their revolting actions, and is simply abhorrent and detestable.

Are you stupid?

It truly is as HDR is more important than any other visual upgrade you can make, including resolution, framerate, and even graphical effects such as screen space reflections, anti aliasing, and ambient occlusion.

Well, at least NieR:Automata doesn’t support actual HDR on any platform, so that’s good I guess?

No that is bad. The better the HDR support the better the game.

[Aemony]

I meant in comparison with only supporting HDR on a single platform, and that being a non-PC one.

At least this way we can all be glad no platform got the “advantage” in that regard.

This is dumb too.

-Buy ultrawide, get broken ui scaling in old games and lack of support in some games
-buy high refresh rate which makes 60 fps feel worse than on 60hz and capped games more annoying
-buy higher than 1080p which reduces performance dramatically for negligible visual benefit.
