you poor thing, i m playing with path tracing on my PC at ultrawide resolution at higher frames that the SW2 users can only dream about and you know what is cool ? i can play it on my deck ( or phone ) with the same quality using steam link or i can play it natively too.

I have to step away after having played an hour, but I can say already I'm excited to see where it's going, and that trading off between Grace and Leon is compelling. In first impressions, it's making each one's tone (horror vs kickass action) stand out even more.

Man, Amazon used to be so good too on day 1 releases for me. Crazy to hear constantly now about how bad they've become.

Hype Train conductor. Works harder than it steams.
Shit reflections Vs shitter reflections.
Reflections only work with path tracing
Maybe it's a distance thing but the Path Tracing one doesn't look good either in that image
Ray/Path Tracing is good at surface and light reflection genuinely, but god damn mirrors are still best done the old fashioned way.

Or is it just one of Phil's balls in my throat?
I really like the black levels in the game, underground areas are suitable dark and oppressive, not a shade of grey or whitewashed.

The FoV being narrow aside, I wouldn't trade Grace's sections from being first person. It just fits really well, IMO.

ok, swapping between Leon and Grace this often is breaking the pacing for me and its starting to get annoying.
"this Grace section is cool, i dont wanna go in that dark room... what is gonna happen next..." cut to black and swap to Leon.
"damn, killing this zombies never felt so fun, i wonder for how long this section ll continue...." cut to black and swap to Grace.
Every fucking single time i start to get invested in one character they change to the other one, imo it is a awful design. Capcom should have make scenario A and B like RE2

Is this different from RE2make? Is it like they dumbed down the enemies too much?

Man. These graphics are sick at times. Path Tracing + FG seems worth it here. I was sure I was gonna turn it off and just use DLSS but fuck it.

IMO they are mostly harder to get around than RE2 also can move a good bit faster than that game at times (the enemies).

This game looks like a washed out blurry mess in HDR on my Bravia OLED....i think the HDR in game sliders are fucked. On base PS5, other games look amazing so its not my set.
What settings are you all using?

Its been 30 years since Pokémon was launched. Hearts and hobbies changed forever. People collecting living things (virtually), fighting for them, even fighting them together. The 90s seems like it should be centuries ago at this point, but it wasn't. There are still millions of people alive today that were affected by that launch.
Which brings me to Leon Kennedy, the protagonist of RE:R. Leon, like the survivors of the Pokémon launch, knows what it's like to be anxious with excitement. Knows what it's like to fight living things. Heck, dude might even know a thing or 2 about breeding (amirite?). He too was affected by something in the 90s much like our reality was affected by Pokémon, only his was a virus that made people ravenous zombies who ate flesh off of other humans... Which come to think of it, is really nothing like Pokémon.
This my my draft for my application to Polygon ^^^ lmk what you guys think!!!

Lame.

I pre-ordered Blue Prince physical edition from them. On release day I got a delay email, so ordered it from Best Buy got it the next day. Cancelled my Amazon order. Check the item page a day or two later and their estimated ship date updated to like 3 weeks after release.

i don't know what kind of agents FBI "hires" but one thing i know for certain, Grace wouldn't pass in any physical evaluation\test or whatever shit the FBI does to make sure that they agents are fit for the job.

For me I felt like the difficulty was just difficult enough. At the beginning of the first Grace part it feels oppressive and hard - how much you explore IMO determines how comfortable you will feel clearing out the area!

Looks incredible on pro in terms of the complete package, lighting, material work etc but I noticed there are some ehhh textures if you get up close on certain thingsIs it me the graphics can look amazing sometime…but other time?

Maybe her mom was deep state/whatever you want to call it , journalism at a certain point was a cover so Grace had a leg up in some respects

Leon feels fluid and fun in third perso, Grace in first feels a bit slow and tanky. I assume that difference is intentional for what each section is trying to accomplish.

Seems random. I got killed at one point and had to reload from 15 minutes earlier. That happened to me in an area that didn't happen before but not the area I traversed on that save
Where you
put the hand in the laser scanner thing and the screen says "let's play a game"?

What do you think of the graphic quality, (besides those pics)? Having in mind all the fuzz about PC and PS5 Pro.Couple of non spoiler Series X shots, from segments already in trailers etc.
Starting to feel the age of the XSX...

Feels perfectly fine in action, the only visual gripe I can point out is some notable aliasing on finer things like fences etc, that's where the FSR they used on PS5/Series shat the bad a little bit.
Kinda surprising cause the previous RE engine games had better anti aliasing.
But so much of the game takes place in dark areas where that doesn't really come up anyway.

It's not really like Outlast IMO, more like RE2. The stalker enemies are barely encounterable and most of is choosing when to pop off on zombies or wait to get things in your inventory to come back and end them.

It's more constant in the beginning but as it goes on each of their sections typically get longer and longer.

Just keeps getting better and better, let's just say I'm going out of my way to kill *everything* with Leon lol.
Edit: and I need to say RE9 has the best blood splatter effect in any videogame ever

Just virgin smashed this for like 4 hours. Actually fucking insane to have some classic Resident Evil level design in a NEW non remake game. Really liked that big Grace section. Saved the game on the third time you play as Leon. I'm done for now.
