Anyone played Assassins Creed Mirage? Is it worth $25?

@Mrfunkedude

I must say i liked the smaller size very much because for me AC Odyssey and AC Valhalla are too big.
IMHO the contents counts, not the possible playtime.
For me it's even worth the full price.

@the_white_wolf Good to know. Thanks.

Graphically, #FinalFantasyVIIRebirth #PS5 is a fascinating production graphically.

For a lot of environmental micro detail, such as rocks, grass, and the like, they’ve taken what looks like an asset-driven approach, which holds up at medium distance, but is often pixelated up close. There are also some awkward level of detail transitions. (1/2)

@jkohlmann@mastodon.social avatar

To do any better here, my guess is they’d have to implement systems like Nanite (micro-polygon rendering / mesh shaders), ray tracing, and more sophisticated procedural shading for environments.

Overall materials work, use of motion blur, and, of course, character rendering at the highest level of detail is all astounding, though. I think this is basically as good as it gets with a whole slate of traditional rendering and production techniques. (2/2)

#PS5 protip: if a game's headphone mix sounds like it's got way too narrow a soundscape, try disabling “3D Audio for Headphones" in the PS5's OS-level settings.

In the past I noticed that #DeathStranding sounded really muddy in headphones and have noticed the same with #FinalFantasyVIIRebirth. The latter sounds better with 3D audio turned off, and thankfully the headphone mix is otherwise fine.

Sent this in to Square Enix, for whatever it’s worth!

The real tell is that imaging sounds completely wrong for positional audio, so, hopefully they can look in to it. An in the meantime, disabling “3D audio for headphones” greatly improves things.

Got a courteous reply from Square Enix support (was actually a few days ago, but unfortunately it went to my spam mailbox). In part:

“While we cannot guarantee implementation, we would like to assure you that [your report of this issue] will be reviewed by the appropriate party.”

About as well as this initial contact could’ve gone, IMO!

I na co mi to było? Po co włączałem ten durny serial na Amazonie? Fakt, obejrzałem błyskawicznie wszystkie osiem odcinków, no i co z tego? Co mi to przyniosło? Że biegam teraz jak ten idiota we wspomaganym pancerzu po pustkowiach odpalając na sejwy sprzed sześciu lat 🤪

It’s taken since last July because I don’t often get the to myself, but I finally finished and INTERmission! I loved most of it except a couple of the late-game bosses. Looking forward to playing CC Reunion next.

Sony is preparing to release a more powerful PS5 console by the end of the year, according to @theverge

Leaked specs suggest the PS5 Pro will have a GPU that's 45% faster than the standard PS5, and will focus on improving ray tracing, as well as "hitting higher resolutions and frame rates in certain titles."

“Codenamed Trinity, the PlayStation 5 Pro model will include a more powerful GPU and a slightly faster CPU mode. All of Sony’s changes point to a Pro that will be far more capable of rendering games with ray tracing enabled or hitting higher resolutions and frame rates in certain titles.”

@Hawaii sigh can't these guys just admit it's a PC and release a damn OS so we can build our own gear?

I replayed #FinalFantasyVIIRebirth #PS5's intro yesterday. I am just captivated by the work the team put in to not just present the imagery of the original game at a higher fidelity, but also the characterization and storytelling.

There is a very specifically iconic shot they recreated in this intro. Easily one of the most famous shots in gaming history. As far as I’m concerned it only works because of all the new stuff.

Hmmmm.

Trying to connect my new to the TV and it is adamant that it can't do HDR in 4K.

The AV receiver supports HDR passthrough, and the TV supports it. Things like the FireStick 4K are happy to do HDR at that resolution when plugged in.

Tried a couple of HDMI cables, but still no dice.

Time to figure out if it is a firmware thing, a cable thing, a port thing, a HDCP thing, or something else.

Almost as fun as actually playing games on it 😆

alastc,
@alastc@toot.cafe avatar

@Edent If you have an OLED TV the darks will be fine, it's the highlights that won't be as bright.
Sounds like the AV receiver isn't passing through the correct metadata or similar?
Some games (e.g. assassin's creed) have a setting at the start where it shows something on screen and you adjust the brightness until it is visible, which is a test of HDR.

Edent,
@Edent@mastodon.social avatar

@alastc sadly not OLED, a few years too old for that. But, yeah, probably the receiver.

My husband and I have been spreading democracy in for days and we're having more fun than we've had with multiplayer in a long time :BlobhajTinyHeart:

For us, it's especially valuable that there are always crossplay games. So I can play on my and my husband can join in on the 💪
