That  I agreed. I have tried the ff16 demo and currently playing ff7 remake on ps5 and ff7 remake looks alot better. I think they need to use unreal engine for their games. Performs and looks better by quite a mile.

Apparently ff16 performance is really bad and often drops below 1080. To reach 60fps in combat it goes as low as 720p which is disappointing. Quality mode is 1080 to 1440p to get mostly locked 30fps. Square Enix needs to use better engine for their games

I've been playing FF16 for a few hours now (got the game early since I live in Australia) and it definitely looks and runs worse than ff7 remake which is weird since this game was built specifically for the PS5. Story is great though so far

I don't mind the res as much since it's being upscaled. I just wish this wasn't using FSR 1.0 as I suspected before, the same thing as TOTK. Just why when you have FSR 2.0 available now? You get a much more oily-looking picture with 1.0.

That's a shame. baffling how games like horizon, GOW, and red dead 2 ran at 30fps on ps4 and some developers don't know how take advantage of ps5 power.  forget ray tracing if you can't keep a stable 60fps.

According to df there's no ray tracing or global illumination.

It's all baked 🤣

Wow it's all baked and they couldn't get it run 60fps. That's insane.

Well, CoD is secure on Nintendo consoles for 10 years as soon as they release the first port. That deal was made. Even if not much value is lost. Mid franchise. Hot Pockets of games.
