Episode Duscae did have less severe framerate drops than the Platinum demo, yeah, but it could still fall to around 20fps at times. It was also 900p on PS4 and 792p on Xbox One, while those screens are 1080p.

I don't know, the DF video for verson 2.0 on Duscae is still pretty rough. Especially on Xbox One, where they saw a low of 12 fps.

Nothing we've seen so far really shows this game running well. Framerates have always been an issue as has pretty significant aliasing.

I actually missed that one; didn't even realize they'd done an analysis of Duscae 2.0.

The Xbox One build in particular runs shockingly badly, but even PS4 is far from stable. Granted, it is still a pre-release demo, but Square are really gonna have to roll up their sleeves between now and September, as this is going to need something like a 50% performance boost to run solidly.

I feel like this game either needs a delay, or needs to throttle back on its graphical ambitions a little bit. Zillion-polygon characters are all well and good, but I suspect people will notice drops to 15-20fps more than they'll notice a slight reductions in geometry.
