Switch 2 demo is slowly being rolled out for the anniversary, it's not available in every region yet. Studio Zero twitter is silent as the grave which is really weird
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WquDDJfxe0UThis video shows around 40fps while exploring and getting up to 60 in battle (resolution is pretty bad handheld which no one cares about), but also antialiasing improvements, fully expect to see that in a patch or when the expansion comes out on other platforms. The docked footage is really choppy overall which I blame more on the dude's capture card when the handheld footage looks better

>>584260010It came out at midnight so they will probably talk about it in the morning. Atlus West posting something for anni when they didn't was strange though.

Visually it’s worse than PS4 extremely soft likely sub 720p in docked, textures are much lower quality as well. The only win Switch 2 has is it has better distant rendering than PS4/5Performance is 30fps-45fpsOverall it’s a pretty bad port, price is iffy. November is a month with better games and better ports on switch shockingly
>>584395367AA is better and it's definitely more than 720p docked kek, this sound like a little cope desu
>>584396563That’s not AA that’s FSR since Sega refuses to use DLSSNo console version has AA at all
>>584350205Yeah I’m just waiting in line… the line for Miku was way crazier
Alright bros I’m in
>>584402427Nice
>>584402820Enjoy the show, anonIf u wanna say hi after lemme know
>>584403446Thanks. Sure name a place
>>584403678There’s an exit at the front left where you go up some stairs and then head down a hallway to leave, how about just like, that hallway, like against the wall right at the top or something. I’ll be honest I don’t really know the venue too well lol

>>584445191Oh and I forgot Fabienne, they fucked first
I'm curious what gameplay improvements or additions you guys would want in the Metaphor expansion dlc.
>>584448880More archetypes Redone (or more like finished) NG+ difficulty More enemy behavioral stuff since what they have already mogs shadow traits in P5RSome kind of disease/sickness mechanic like mod anon was talking about doingArchetype boss battles/fights against ghosts of past kings kind of like what FFXV did Hulkenberg's parents P6 costumes with the P6 battle theme attached to them Fights with some of the humans mentioned in the lore notes Shota Louis and Zorba flashback Fights that revolve around anxiety affliction Advanced fairy feet rubbing mechanics

Finally
I thought the orchestra concert was very enjoyable but I only had two tiny nitpicks which might just be me being ignorant on how difficult they might be to perform live: Warriors in Valour was slightly slower than the in-game OST, but the replacement singer actually sounded very good so it was alright. And then my other nitpick was how there wasn’t any singing for the Virga Island theme. I mean maybe it’s really really hard to pull off live so they went for a safer route to ensure a good show but still. Overall a very good show and I’m glad I went.
>>584469771Virga Islands they had vocals for in the original concert and also included those vocals in Traversing the Wastes at the end I've heard the Warriors in Valor complaint elsewhere too but I don't think I hear it all that much, I think at most you're just expecting the singer to be rapping a little more like ingame when only the Chad Honryo can really do that
>>584428686Nope. I was seated next to these Chinese guys who somehow disappeared after the intermission.
>>584472471>only the Chad Honryo can really do thatI was watching some JP concert footage where he couldn’t really do it
>>584476548Chinks should've been banned from the venue
>>584479068I am Chinese thoughever
>>584259656>Best design in the entire game>lol npcTiresome
>>584479068Please work on your tolerance
>>584479068>Says when the only anon ITT that went to the concert is chinese kek
>>584480463Never.
>>584479863Many such cases
While we are on the topic of diversity and tolerance. I didn't really see any Indians at the concert. It was refreshing to be in a place with a lot of people and see more niggas than jeets.
>>584486419That goes without saying, Indians would hate this game about as much as SEAs do
>FEFW already has Day 1 DLC>Metaphor has nothingKekaroni, by 2027 this game will be even more dead and buried
>>584505825you mean year 2 DLC that was content deliberately withheld from the base game instead of a real expansion like Atlus does before year 2 it's getting less costumes than metaphor had at launch + 3 characters that are already in the game except you can use them outside specific story beats coperino
>>584506121Yeah, which is already more than what Metaphor will ever have kek
>>584506484>anus being gaped by Hashino while anon was typing this
>>584505825FF7 remake has DLC too! still a shit game
>>584507121How can I be anus gaped by Hashino when you have his dick in your mouth?
They should delay the port to focus more on optimization
>>584516735no
>>58451704340fps isn’t good enough.
>>584517112it runs better than their last port and it gets up to 60 in plenty of places, they are not going to wait and have this compete with their next marketing
>>584517381P3R ran 60 way more often, both were like 540p though. Theres genuinely no reason it should look and run worse than the PS4 versions considering Switch 2 games look better than Series S games on average
>>584517837>P3R ran 60 way more oftenlollmao
>>584517906According to digital foundries tests alone P3R on Switch 2 in performance mode hits 60 on average with drops to mid 50s in the overworld areas, Metaphor by comparison almost never peaks past the 40fps mark even in combat
>>584518734I don't get why you're lying about something anyone can easily look at, it's not going to like do a favor for P3R or something
>>584522319probably just upset the demo reception has been very positive and feels the need to say the opposite of what everyone else is
P4R will probably be 60fps at least, granted it’s delayed so far out it’s pretty much a pointless port.
>>584524761P4R will be as much of a jumbled mess as the P3R one is, Atlus can't do unreal for shit and I don't blame them
>>584524761>cherrypicked metaphor performance and couldn't find where it wasn't either rock solid or north of 45fps while P3R doesn't hold up very well as soon as you get into any real gameplay The other big reason why most people greatly prefer this port is because there's no insane input lag. Overall have come a long way from the days of SMTV but that's really more because UE4 got a bunch of updates that made it easier for them to run shit on the switch.>>584525042Atlus probably barely has anyone in-house working on these persona remakes anyway
>>584525042Did you not update the game ever? P3R got a 60fps patch months ago the only place it struggles is in the school.
>>584525256It's not eternally stuck at 30 like it used to be but it's not stable in the slightest
>>584525205I can’t find a single point in Metaphor where it’s a locked 60 outside of looking straight up while P3R the areas it performs the worst in is just the school with all the NPCsI’m guessing Metaphors engine is the problem since it’s also likely why they are forced to use a software upscaler to hit 1080p instead of rendering it at 1080p
>>584525350Yeah 55 when you get a loading spike and when you’re in the hallways isn’t stable, but it sure is better than sub 50 no matter what you do.Sonic Frontiers looks like a better port on Switch 2 and that game runs at a lower resolution than Switch 1
>first it was it doesn't go past 40, then it was well it doesn't go past 45, and now it's I can't find a spot where it was locked to 60 fps figures
