>As Tabata said, the team is currently squeezing out every available second to complete the game. He then asked PC gamers to wait a bit longer and confirmed that the Final Fantasy XV Windows Edition was built from the ground up just for the PC, and that – as a result of that – it is a generation ahead of what Square Enix delivered on consoles.
is he...saying "thanks for beta testing" to console users?
Cameron Martinez
the game will be forever a disappointment. Just let it die, it's not worth even writing anything about it.
Luis Cruz
Does that mean that we will get the game that they showed us during the tokyo game show 4-5 years ago?
Jeremiah Bailey
>got FFXV or 1€ at gamestop for ps4 >going to pirate it on PC with all DLC and latest patch can't speak for all but i sure beta tested it
Jacob Martinez
Considering the quality of FF games, the generation ahead makes it, what, PS3 quality ?
Easton Reed
>next generation ahead of what square delivers on consoles So PC games about 6 years ago?
Sebastian Rivera
>all this extra work on the version that won't sell many copies
Thomas Ortiz
you can't really say if he's lying or not
Joshua Perry
Which PC games?
Justin Ortiz
>buying early access games
Christopher Nelson
>tries to spoil the ending >totally butchers it How much of a brainlet are you exactly? Your description is 100% wrong
Samuel Lopez
>Uses Gameworks >intothetrashitgoes
Adam Brown
It won't feel right. Plus no one will buy it.
Aaron Thomas
But user thats literally what happened.
Nathaniel Ortiz
>Pissy Radeon cuck
Camden Sanchez
Maybe in Royal/Windows edition they squeeze in another muh secret ending like Episode Ignis's alternate ending.
Logan Clark
After the 780ti debacle, of course I'm going for amd.
Henry Foster
>deliberately lying to force people to double dip >falling for it after XV release
James Baker
>can't even max out the game with a 1060
Dropped
Owen Brown
Bro, why would you even want to suck Nvidia's dick? How do you imagine that game will end up working for people like us (consumers)?
If it works Nvidia will fuck everyone with high pricing even more than they do now. If it doesn't, they just fuck a portion of the consumer base as punishment for not buying their overpriced shit.
Do you just sit at home dreaming of the day when games not only become console exclusive, OS and exclusive, but also graphics card exclusive?
Why stop there? Why not make it CPU exclusive or motherboard exclusive? Let's just divide the ever living fuck out of the consumer base so that a couple of companies can win big.
John Fisher
So what was even the point of the console version? I really feel like I dodged a bullet by not getting it. But I was so close to doing so. I've gotten all other Final Fantasies at launch, but I was careful with this one. Seems like that was the right call.
Carter Green
His friends aren't dead, just unconscious. That has been confirmed in interview, why would anyone think they can be killed this easily.
Lucas Brown
You can all say it's shit but I'll still get it for PC
Jaxson White
lol the game flopped so much he's running to the mustards. joke's on him, they don't buy anything.
Jackson Gomez
>ps3 is one generation ahead of ps4
Thomas Thompson
I played the benchmark and it looks worse and runs worse than The Witcher 3 right now.
Blake Edwards
No, he's just trying to get you to re-buy an unfinished game you already played, and at a premium price.
Nathaniel Harris
The narrative in ff15 is shockingly bad. I jsut don't understand how this is the plot they push out after 15 years
Jonathan Brown
Too bad the game is just shit, there’s nothing a superior gaming platform can change about that
Liam Powell
>BUILT FROM GROUND UP What a load of shit, the first thing i noticed in the benchmark was the terrible pop-in of shadows beyond 50 meters.
Oliver Martinez
Then why does the benchmark look like shit
Jose Myers
All of FF15 is a beta for Tabata's new IP.
Aiden Clark
>If it works *INSERT_COMPANY_HERE* will fuck everyone with high pricing even more than they do now.
Do you seriously fucking think your precious AMD would never fall to Nvidia's level? AMD's not mad that Nvidia's putting Gameworks shit in all their games, they're mad that they didn't think of it before.
Lucas Green
Pretty much. No amount of added content will make this game feel like a complete product for anyone with a IQ 110 brain. We will have to wait for FF16, if Sqeenix management dont get too retarded again in handling that project.
Charles Lopez
>We will have to wait for FF16 Soon. Nah, it's vaporware.
Matthew Brooks
But user, it's got Nvidia™ Turf™ effects, that means it's made for PC.
Joseph Morgan
He needs another 10 years to build the PC version from scratch.
Josiah Lewis
He is full of shit, the benchmark has literally ps4 graphics, the same shitty screen space reflections that cut off at the edge of the screen, the same shitty water shaders instead of real water physics, the complete lack of real antialiasing and optimisation comparable to final fantasy 14 1.0
it's a piece of shit
Carson Miller
>a generation ahead
No doubt about it, gentiana is an old hag now, her skin is all wrinkly in the pc version
Carter Smith
yeah pretty much
Kayden Lopez
Do you know how to have a proper conversation buddy? I never said that AMD wouldn't try to pull it off if they were in the top dog seat. I'm saying that you shouldn't be sucking Nvidia's dick and begging for more.
It only stops when they figure out it doesn't work or hurts sales which means corporate dick suckers like you have to stop existing and start paying attention to purely the merits of the product and not accepting their attempts to force you onto their platform alone.
Ian Sanders
>He is full of shit, the benchmark has literally ps4 graphics, the same shitty screen space reflections that cut off at the edge of the screen, the same shitty water shaders instead of real water physics, the complete lack of real antialiasing and optimisation comparable to final fantasy 14 1.0 But muh GameWorks.
Henry Fisher
No, it's marketing so dumb PCMR idiots will buy it.
Best version of a garbage game is still the a garbage game
Isaac Diaz
devs should really stop using screenspace reflections for lakes or other big objects. the resulting artifacts look worse than having no reflections at all
Joshua Cook
>Let's release an Early Access title that needs a GTX 1060 to run it on low >btw the gpu will cost about $700 thx to miners I bought it on the xbone and it bored me to death, so I didnt even finish it. I'll pick it up in a steam sale year from now for $10
Andrew Scott
This. I'd much rather have mirrored geometry at a lower detail.
Hell even the source engine can do water reflections better than most games these days.
Connor Myers
Wow it's almost like as time goes on requirements for games become more demanding.
You bought a meme card, should have waited until the 1070. Your own fault.
Ryder Ward
>Empty open world >You cannot drive outside of the road >Chocobos are faster that the car
Nathaniel Ross
Man they're really desperate to shill this shit. Hope that sony and ms timed exclusivity contract was worth it because everyone knows your game is a turd now
James Turner
I wonder how many idiots will actually believe this, he swore up and down that the console version was going to be the definitive version before release and when it released it was a total shitshow and now he started lying about the pc version again like when he said that the specs originally posted were wrong and overblown
Christian Fisher
>like when he said that the specs originally posted were wrong and overblown But they were. A 1060 plainly isn't low.
Levi Perry
Games are supposed to become more demanding because they look better, not just because. That's called shit optimization.
Wyatt Johnson
>still believing in Tabata's lies
He's quickly becoming the Molyneux of our time. He'll spew every lie to sell his damned project as much as he can.
Jaxon Hernandez
>supposed to Well that's not reality, stop living in fantasy land. It hasn't worked like that for nearly a decade. Games as a whole don't look that much better than they did eight years ago.
>b-but consoles Regardless of the reason (and accessibility is one) that doesn't change my point.
Hunter Lopez
>Well that's not reality It is actually, for games that aren't optimized like shit. For example, every recent DICE game looks and runs amazingly well. FFXV looks worse than Crysis 1 when it's on lite settings and can't even maintain 60 FPS on a GTX 970. No excuse for that aside from shit optimization.
Jason Kelly
Most games don't look or run as well as DICE games. They're in the minority and don't pretend otherwise. That's like saying poor looking games on the 3DS isn't excusable because of Capcom's black magic with MT Frameworks.
>Most games don't look or run as well as DICE games. You're right, they don't look as good but they'll run decently, or at least better than FFXV. I've seen shitty MMOs that run/look better than this.
Brandon Torres
>the game will be forever a disappointment the problem is not the Versus trailers, it's the game itself sets you up for disappointment: from the very beginning it builds up epic confrontation with an evil empire. You get to Neifelheim. It's nothing. You return after the time shift, "hey perma night, this place is crawling with deamons, here we go baby". Game ends.
>was built from the ground up just for the PC what a load of horse shit. there is a little more vegetation. that's it. seriously.
Brandon Evans
Because the game can't explain it worth a shit, it wouldn't need to be confirmed in a fucking interview if the game didn't make such a poor job of actually showing what happens
Christopher Wood
Wow it's almost like said MMOs aren't open world and are thus less demanding. Damn...
Jack Howard
Did they fix the gameplay being trash yet?
Eli Ward
Most modern MMOs are open world you mong. Pic related is open world and somehow manages to run better than FFXV while looking nearly as good outside of character models.
Henry Rogers
Who care if it have super uper mega cool grafic when it's combat system is shit.
Isaiah Perry
Difference being that Molyneux lied because he was a goddamn idiot and believed his own lies, Tabata lies knowing they are lies just to scam idiots on both console and pc
Andrew Roberts
Regardless of the game I'm glad someone is pushing the limits of pc hardware again. I remember when people were pissed their vodoo 2 equipped counterstrike toasters couldnt run crysis.
Jayden Perez
>I'm glad someone is pushing the limits of pc hardware again. Yea, this isn't pushing the limits of anything visually speaking. It's no Crysis. Hell, it's no Crysis 3.
Joshua Morris
>I'm glad someone is pushing the limits of pc hardware again. is this a joke ?
Lucas Morris
>pushing the limits of pc hardware again. Are they? Turn off all the nvidia crap and you instantly gain 50-60 fps. Who knows what other meme-tier features this game has. Graphics should be pushed for the purpose of making things look better, not just for taxing hardware.
Oliver Hernandez
That is retarded though, a game should push the limits of the hardware if they are actually being properly used to give us better graphics and effects and not because the devs can't optimize worth a shit, every single SE game they port to pc comes with some stupid problems because they can't be assed to port ir properly
Angel Hernandez
That one
Chase Diaz
Old xv-kun on suicide watch
Of course since he really just switches sides, now he's gonna praise the PC version when before he was shitposting against it and PC players in general.
Noah Bennett
Ultima 9 fried my graphics card and that game looked and ran worse than gothic 1
No shit sherlock, you want a fucking medal along with the title of captain obvious?
Evan Campbell
Well someone gotta do the first step for others to follow.
Parker Morris
The hell are you talking about?
Juan Nguyen
Look up the history of pc gaming. Great transitions in quality and hardware were almost always started by one game having insane specs, while games that techincally did the same had lower requirements. After one broke the ground of demanding more hardware others followed suit and started expanding on that. It was like that all the way from magic carpet to crysis.
Ayden Barnes
>Great transitions in quality and hardware were almost always started by one game having insane specs, while games that techincally did the same had lower requirements. Which ones? Name one please. I want a single transformative PC game that required insane specs while looking worse than the average PC game at the time. The only games I can think of where this happened were Crysis, Far Cry,
Evan Myers
>The only games I can think of where this happened were Crysis, Far Cry, and FEAR*
Jaxon Sanders
>The only games I can think of where this happened were Crysis, Far Cry, Magic Carpet, Ultima 7, Doom 2, Quake and Unreal.
Christian Walker
too bad the story and gameplay are still shit
Gabriel Butler
Except Quake and Unreal looked amazing at the time, especially Unreal. And Ultima 7 and Doom 2 weren't really transitional games.
Brody Butler
>bought a 1080 before miners started buying up all the cards mmmm
Michael Hughes
Since the announcement of mod support that has been the only reason I've been excited for this release, and it's reason enough. Game pre-ordered.
Also, will this support DX12? I remember reading that it would, but that was right after they announced it and a google search throws me 0 results, so maybe I just dreamt that shit up.
Andrew Thompson
1060 runs it at 60fps
Connor Murphy
>as time goes on requirements for games become more demanding.
If the graphics improve they should FF15 looks like a 2013 game lol
Evan Kelly
can't wait
Luke Lee
does her fart feel like a cold breeze? what do you think, user?
Bentley Sanchez
On medium settings. At 1080p.
Evan Reyes
they can polish this as much as they want, but won't change the fact that it's just another mediocre, convoluted piece of shit just like Type-0 was.
Justin Green
Better than PS4 Pro with unlocked framerate. As expected really.
Eli Rogers
Type 0 was a perfectly fine PSP game.
Isaac Ward
That's not saying much. Just because the game runs like shit on consoles doesn't mean it running like shit on PC isn't a bad thing.
Gavin Perry
Type 0 was awful, the plot was all over the place, Machina was a whiny piece of shit, and the ending was unsatisfying.
Zachary Allen
m8 what? An old mid range super cheap GPU runs the game much better than a 400$ """premium"""" console, it's in the ballpark of the 1060 really. It could have been better for sure but it's not a catastrophe either. I've seen a guy with a 1050ti run it closer to 60 than the PS4Pro ever will reach Of course that won't save this absolute shitshow of a game but the port seems to be fine.
Jack Cooper
why are those buildings literally copy and paste from Italy?
