| Otter said: Nice breakdown of this early footage from Digital Foundry. Really makes you appreciate the effort that went into the last gen ports, because clearly there are sacrifices but they've been smart in a way that maintains the experience at a glance. https://youtu.be/jVMAYEb-3rI?si=WPQFnZKRih1oDNaV Switch 2 appears to be a modified version of the PS4. Slightly better in some regards but notably worse than Series S. Without direct comparison though it holds up very well. Hopefully the image quality we see in the final build holds up better in docked mode. I agree that nothing about the footage so far says 1440p or even 1080p. I think 1080p would be a great target output. |
A bit disappointing that they used pretty much all the PS4 assets instead of the current gen ones. I hoped for something more in line with Skyrim on Switch: a middleground between PS360 and the Special Edition on PS4/XBO.
I know they touched up certain things (some exterior corridors in Hogwarts are uncovered, unlike the last gen version), but the upgrades over last gen are very limited.
I think they just went the easy route and slapped the PS4 version on the Switch 2 instead of working from the current gen and create the best version the Switch 2 could offer (because I think there is definitely some things they could have improved over last gen).
