Only 25 minutes for my download which isn't bad but I wanted to jump in immediately. The upgrade process was super straightforward.

oh dang, for some reason it never occurred to me that the upgrade to PS5 version would have to download the entirety of the game again, haha

Now to answer my question which mode to play in. I tried resolution first for the first 10 minutes then switched to performance mode and wow, not turning back. 60fps is way better IMO and the image quality is still great. Resolution mode looks way too sharp imo. Lot of shimmering textures.

39 hours left on my PS5 download lmao. Servers getting hammered like the Nintendo eShop on Christmas Day. The price I pay for trying to save $10.

Yeah I didn't last long in resolution mode, but holy hell did it look great. The shimmer is the worst part of performance, hope there will be an update.

Just played for 7 hours straight lol. It's so addicting. The dualsense adds so much to the combat, that effect when an arrow hit an enemy is incredible.

A bit OT, but pretty cool you can remotely delete PS5 games through the PS App. Helped me start the download without having to turn on the system haha.

Yeah.. lasted less than 2 mins at 30fps before I started feeling sick. People are crazy saying it's not a stutter fest at 30fps


Edit: They made the same mistake with the focus as they did in the first game. Camera panning while the focus bubble is up is painfully slow.

All the promo footage so far has been 30fps and looked totally normal. Is there suddenly something wrong with the framepacing on patch 1.04? Or do you guys just never play 30fps games?

So, I got my collector's edition early on Wednesday and none of the voucher codes worked, which I guess I can understand, although I wished they'd at least activate as a preorder so I could preload. Now it's after midnight and it's still saying that 2 of the 3 are inactive and I still can't download the game.

Just now headed to sleep but I found 30 perfectly fine - I just had to play at 60 and about 5 hours later I regret nothing.

The combat is just so snappy and fluid - it's awesome.

Res mode looks great until you move around, barf. 60 it is.

that's what I feared. Ill see for myself tomorow but yeah, all the "this one's different guys trust me i also only play 60fps but this is great at 30" comments were super sus to me

Hopefully they patch this fast
Yeah, this isn't a great first impression.
60fps mode looks bad, but there is no way in hell I can play this at 30fps without feeling nauseous.

Glad I'm not the only one. 30fps mode is brutal if you are sensitive to motion sickness.

Did anyone else here get the Special Edition? Just picked mine up, got home, and the code for the Nora Legacy Outfit doesn't work. Tried on the PS5 and the PS App. Just wondering if anyone else has run into this issue.
