Its very impressive. And better than part 1, overall. Strong atmosphere/story/gameplay-ideas/soundtracks. And this graphic, oh my god. Love it so much.

Looking forward to playing this. Kind of annoyed they are pushing the "early access" bs with this game.

Had 6 hours in it, it's...hmm.

It's not bad so far but it's not so good as to warrant 90 euro. I'm sure I'll fall into it but deliveries are a pain in the ass so far. I've been massively spoiled already and this us giving me a feeling I need to rush the game, thankfully the Spoiler was just for the first chapter and I now that I don't have to wait for it to happen I should start to be able to enjoy the story. All I can say so far is Kojima was lying or being Japanese humble about the graphics, there is a clear difference in what he said would be the weakest part, the characters models. I have never seen a game have this much detail and run so well. Game feels better in 30fps too, it's one of those rare accurances where it does not effect the camera nor obscur detail (not too much anyway) and the gameplay doesn't need it, obviously things feel more fluid at 60 but there's a cinematic feel that's lost, alas, I see little difference in quality between the two.

I would assume if someone was coming from 8th gen to PS5 with this game that this would be a next gen feeling moment, other devs certainly have no excuses now for poor image quality even open world simulation games at 60fps 8f they didn't already with Forbidden West. One thing that is severely bumming me out is that the random music isn't hitting the same way the Low Roar stuff did in DS1 which sucks, the first OST part in the opening chapter did hit however.

It's a shame. The game could have a had a 103 Metascore if only Kojima didn't choose to nerf his own game because the play testers thought it was too good.

Oh well, better to have a not at all mianstream appealing 90 Meta.

Maybe one day there will be a Director's Cut of this game that shows all the thing the director changed to make the game worse.

Nice I can't wait to start it tonight. I'll only get about an hour or two but my body is ready.

Just can't get myself motivated for it. The story is the main hook right now, I'm not getting that zen feeling from DS1 but I guess that cones later with better tools and infrastructure when attempting the plat.

The Landscapes are fucking stunning, I took a few screenshots in Photo mode and all I changed was the focal length, took out Sam and they might as well be real for all the difference it makes, there is some slight tells that they are CGI but nit many. Easily the most advanced graphics I've seen in a game ever in terms of realism and on a base PS5 too.

Is there anything for sale as a video game product on PC that is better than this?

Okay. Watched MattyPlays talk about his experience with DS1 and seeing the footage of, even the Ps5 version, DS2 is the first Generstion jump game I've seen. There is a definite jump that makes DS1 look like a last gen game which looks cartoony in comparison, characters lavk detail and look plastic and the terrain looks so poor now. 

Feels more like MGV than DS at times.

Holy fuck the graphics are next level, everytime a cutscene is playing and my mind just takes it as CGI and then the camera pans around Sam and you're playing it. It's wild, I've never seen anything close to this level. Anyway, in Chapter 6 now, I hope I get Ziplines soon as I'm inching to get into building infrastructure, got sidetracked on the roads a bit but sure I'll never use them so gonna wait and get bavk maxing out outposts.
