By that logic it would be a Series X competitor too because in most games PS5 has been outperforming Series X.

So either people are thinking Series X isn't even in the running anymore, or Switch 2 will outperform it with DLSS. Either take is funny.
This is why I find these moments to be fun. By me omitting Xbox from my post you've quoted, you took it to mean that I don't find them to be a worthy competitor.

When honestly, I was referencing this part of FoxMcChief FoxMcChief 's post where he said 'Some are way too sensitive when Sony aren’t on the winning side of everything' with my response. For those people he's talking about, Switch 2 potentially being a competitor for PS5 is going to be a fun time for this forum, because it will mean Nintendo found their way back into the graphics race. That will throw a bit of chaos into the mix for that audience.

Can we start one of those chains like they do on reddit, where I repeat what you said but turn it into something else? I'll start.

"Imagine getting upset about something like this and posting in a thread to call out the OP.
It's NeoGaf, deal with it."
I'll play :

It's NeoGaf, deal with it.

Honestly I was just taking the piss, but I do find it a bit funny when people in general just omit Xbox from the picture when talking about competitors to the next Switch. It happens rather regularly; not by you mind, but I've seen it online.

I want the Switch 2 to be competitive with Sony (and Microsoft) in terms of getting more 3P support; in Sony's case, if that means they prioritize doing more AA 1P titles again to make up for lack of Japanese 3P exclusives they would've gotten by default prior. But honestly, if Switch does get there that's way more due to Nvidia's progress on their own tech than Nintendo actively pushing for it the way say Sony did with AMD in helping with aspects of RDNA2 (according to the rumors).

Anyone got any ideas of how I can work through this with the moderation team, or who else I can contact?
You come off as being as sensitive as your avatar pic.

“Everyone is making GT7 vs Forza references these days…I cannot look at a thread and not see cars and dashboard images”.

You will be fine..after all both those games can exist*

There is clearly something going on with a moderator on here that has a personal vendetta against me. I posted a comment in the forza vs gt7 thread that stated that forza looked a lot better than gt7 in the video asamsapple posted and within 50 seconds my post was deleted and i was thread banned. I've attempted to contact moderation multiple times to request a conversation and no one responds.

My post was deleted with the comment "you're trying too hard, fanboy". I mean really, what is that? We see horrific comments towards other members, and craziness all day but a comment about forza looking better on one video gets me banned from a thread within seconds.

I know the joke is why post a thread, just message moderation. I have done it multiple times. I have never been banned on this site but seem to be getting an increasing amount of thread bans and warnings.

Anyone got any ideas of how I can work through this with the moderation team, or who else I can contact?

Based on my own recent and bizarre experience. This is my guess.

Watch this video from 3 minutes 50 and tell me that foza doesn't look leagues better. That's my opinion. That's all I said.


I've yet to read through much of the comparison stuff yet but 3:50 onwards is a huge difference, I assume something is wrong like settings etc?

The rain looks amazing!

GT7 on PS5 with the PS5 update looks nothing like that on my TV when actually playing, so are you sure that isn't a HDR capture issue, or playing the PS4 version on a PS5, Or arcade mode or mislabelled video.

I would say it is an issue with using the 3rd person camera in GT7, that isn't needed at all because who can get all the license rewards driving in that camera? But the replay cameras in GT7 are third person and look fantastic, as-in, would pass for real racing footage(near enough) fantastic, so I don't know what to say.

GT7 looks amazing for a cross-gen game in the 300hrs I've played, so who knows?

I don't really know what happened, but having spent some time as a mod, I can speculate that the ban might have been based more on a pattern of behavior, rather than that specific post per se. Sometimes a mod (or a mod team) develops a perception that a particular poster is a fanboy, a console warrior, or whatever. After that, sometimes the trigger gets pulled earlier for that guy than it would someone else. The threshold is lower. They're on a "shorter leash," let's say. That's particularly true if the person has a previous record of being a problem. I don't know if any of that is true of you, Dench, I'm just speaking in general terms.

On the face of it, I don't see any reason to ban someone or insult them, based on what you said you posted. However, I know there are two sides of the story, and we're only hearing one. So who knows.
 
To the naked eye Forza does look better, but what other wild posts did you make in that thread?

Be honest.

This is highly debatable depending on what specifically is on display, TBH.

But overall, both games look very good. Neither's wildly outperforming the other in visuals, really.

If someone gifts me Gold I will put a treasure reaction on every post in this thread. That's what I've got.

Thread must've gone live!

If that video is some console warrior fanboy video that is purposefully making gt7 look worse then they got me. If I'm guilty of that then it sucks. I just went off the video. I can't keep up with who or what are fanboy made videos anymore, I'm too old.
The real mistake is trusting any video or screen shot that‘s posted in here. I mean, IGN are responsible for the most recent clusterfuck, and they’re one of the largest gaming sites.
