Should i get it on PS4 Pro or PC?
I have a decent PC but i found it on PS4 Pro for 15euros.
Is the PS4 pro version with the latest updates good?
I mean does it run with nice graphics and playable framerate?
What do you guys recommend?

I have both. If you don't have or can't get a controller for your PC, I'd say go PS$. As expected, this game really is best with a controller vs K+M.

If that isn't an issue, I'd say pc for one simple reason........MODS!!!!!!

Ok, there aren't many out yet, but as SE releases more tools and people learn them, there will likely be many more.

Of course i have a controller for the pc.
As for mods no i don't use them neither i will... I prefer vanilla all over the way bro and i simply want the game for its story :)

do not even try the PC version .
Too many bugs and Square Enix provide no fix at all ...

PS4 Pro. Mediocre PC will be able to run it with some tinkering but it's not worth the effort. Certain configurations, particularily people with weaker CPUs, low RAM, and low VRAM, are gonna have problems.

I have a high-end PC and the game is absolutely beautiful vs playing it on the PS4. (Do not have a pro, though, just base model.) After 200+ hours on the PS4 version, I'm running through it again on the PC and I'm very impressed with the visuals. The lighting alone is something to look at.

That being said.. HOWEVER... the game is buggy as can be. I experienced my first crash last night (just a little over 40 hours into it on the PC version) and it was just a random shutdown without any warning. The micro-studdering here and there is enough to drive me crazy, but thankfully it rarely happens. The specialK mod helps out a lot, but even with it, there are still some issues with the PC version that keep me from saying it is perfect. I actually PREFER the PC version to my PS4 one, but the PS4 was rock solid and stable for me the entire time, so keep that in mind when you are trying to decide. The Royal Pack stuff will also be included in the PC version, vs. another add-on you will need to get, only if you are just getting the base game on the PS4. and not the Royal Edition.

Tough choice, for sure. If I had to pick and lose access to one or the other, I'd have a hard time deciding which one I would like to let go. :D

A significant majority of the problems discussed in this forum are with higher-end machines. The game runs great on a potato (with appropriate expectations).

Couldn't agree more. In fact, I have desktop and laptop that are both high-end and almost nearly the same specs. (Both use a GTX 1070). My desktop plays this game WAY worse than the laptop does, which is crazy to me, since they are so close spec wise. 60+fps is amazing, no doubt... but rock-solid 30fps is nice when you are doing 3-4 hour dungeon runs and can't save. :D

I respect ur opinion bro! I may rent firstly the ps4 version from a close friend to try it but will propably go for the PC version.

Lol. The game looks even more beautiful on a high-end pc than on PS4. Provided your pc can handle it at max settings. Wait for a few newer generations of CPU & GPU & enjoy this game at 200% reso scale + max settings + 4K/8K monitors with full-HDR supported.

its even more unoptimized than 13-2 , filled with bugs and other issues

Get it on PC. It isn't "unoptimised" Most mid-range PCs can run it with better graphics than a PS4 by miles. PC people just tend to want to be able to run everything at 4K 60fps, max everything. It can do that, but at 30fps. That's not unoptimised for the sack of costly NVIDIA effects that are in the game. Personally, I think high-end gamers have a problem because they turn on NVIDIAs stuff. The rest of us have no chance, turn the stuff off and run the game just fine.

There are already some appearance mods, and they're making a modding tool. You also get all DLC.

I have an RX480 with an i7700k. I run everything on max 1080p except I have all NVIDIA stuff off. It's smooth at about 50-70fps and I have no problems. But I would advise having an SSD if you don't want to see stutter. an SSD is required for a smooth experience.

There is a memory leak issue for some people though, and it hasn't been patched. I have not had that issue.
