I believe those are in game graphics!

Rockstar has done nothing but actual in-game footage for trailers since like GTA3. So, yeah, that shit is fucking insane. Doesn't even look like a PS5 could run it.

As comments on GAF have been pointing out, 2025 will be after the PS5 Pro.

What I can't figure is how this will run on the Series S.

They must have magicians working for them or something. I guess that's the advantage of using a completely tailor made engine created with unlimited funding, rather than using Unreal or something.

They certainly have some tricks and talent. GTA 5 ran on the launch 360 which had 512mb of RAM shared between CPU and GPU.

Well Microsoft has already shown they will cave to have a game, so probably just won’t be on it so it can still be on an Xbox in some form.

[–] Ser_Salty@feddit.de 2 points 11 months ago (1 children)

Nah, the press release says it's releasing on the S

[–] schmidtster@lemmy.world -1 points 11 months ago (1 children)

So did BG3 at the start and we all know how that went. Microsoft had to reneg on multiple policies just so they could have the game on their consoles.

I believe only the local Co-op was removed though? And the optimizations made for XSS were beneficial to all other platforms as well as they stated, and the game runs now much better on PC and PS5

[–] schmidtster@lemmy.world 0 points 11 months ago* (last edited 11 months ago) (1 children)

The optimizations would have been done eventually anyways and Xbox had policies that they had to bend just to have the game on their systems.

People can say the game is coming, but that doesn’t mean it’s happening, it’s already been an issue and will be a continuing issue going forward. The console just isn’t that powerful.

If the game does release, it won’t be the same game as the X, not a chance.

[–] pgetsos@kbin.social 1 points 11 months ago (1 children)

I doubt they would do the optimizations at the same degree, because they wouldn't need to. It was working fine on the PS5 already, it was already a success on PC. Why bother much?

[–] schmidtster@lemmy.world 0 points 11 months ago* (last edited 11 months ago)

They have done plenty of other optimizations already. So why would you think that? Of your logic was remotely true not any optimizations would have been done since it’s a waste.

Clearly they aren’t that type of company (every company does continuing optimizations FFS LMFAO), so don’t make shit up to try and make a point.
