That's why I said it's still pitiful. DQ11 looks good but there is nothing in there that should make it run 30fps. It's both badly programmed and stuck on a weak platform. Unlike BOTW which is just stuck on weak platform.

But overall DQ11 is the better product. That is why nobody is complaining.

I want to thumbs up this post.

What does that have to do with anything? They were comparing resolution

Unreal Engine 4 is a disaster in terms of performance ... (Should've just used the Decima Engine like kojima did.)

900p on Base vs 1728p on Pro? That's a bigger resolution jump than usual.

Looked good, I like the art style as always on the DQ franchise. I have no issues with 900p or 30fps, as long as gameplay is great I really dont care if it's 720, 900 or 1080.

Did not like the horse running animation though, that looked pretty bad hah.

From what I can remember SE said that they would develop three different versions for this game.. so that makes me wonder what the Switch version will be like.

The differnce would be so small... hell the differnce between 900p and 1728c is pretty small (judgeing from the youtube video).

The "artstyle" and simple textures, limit how big a impact simply scaleing up the resolution would have.

And a DQ game with more complex graphics wouldnt "feel" like a DQ game.

"What does that have to do with anything?"

The person I quoted used exsamples of games with more complex graphics and texture work as his argument.

Nioh,Nier,Witcher3,HZD,Doom,Uncharted,... all have more demanding graphics, and run higher resolutions.

My point was, even if they could do "better" a totally differnt looking game wouldnt be a DQ game.

And like I said, the differnt in the Digitalfoundry video between 900p & 1728c is kinda small (atleast it looked that way to me).

Its the artstyle, it doesnt really allow for drastically noticable differnces from just scaleing the resolution up abit.

If its 900p or 1080p in this game is a big meh.

But that's a fallacy, they never said anything about DQ looking like HZD or Doom, they just said that better looking games with objectively more sophisticated and complex graphics have better resolution outputs. They said nothing about how DQ11 should look like the Witcher. Also, the original comment was critiquing Japanese devs. They were putting Nier, Ni-oh and DQ11 on the same league, and criticizing those devs.

The difference isn't small which DigitalFoundry themselves pointed out. I watched the video fullscreened with different resolutions and it looked quite big to me. From my understanding if you're watching the video at 1080p, you can't tell the difference well because the video is converting down. Youtube videos aren't a good indication but you could at least upscale the resolution of the video which should make a difference in quality even if you don't have a display above 1080p. That's just from my understanding though. 

Anyways how big of a difference you think it makes is just an opinion, when really the point is that the optimization is worse. 

There will be downsampling to 1080p on the Pro version. The guy on Digital Foundry forgot to check if the Pro version downsamples to 1080p. Someone on GAF asked about that and he pointed out that there were checkerboarding artifacts on the Pro version on a 1080p screen.

900p/30fps on PS4? The Switch version is gonna get downgraded heavily.
