i started this awhile ago too, 30 hours in doing so many side cases and friend errands. ;-;
It's from the intro which was pre-rendered on PS4. Begs the question why they'd bother to re-render it in-engine unless they were going for a style change across the board.
Holy shit!! I only played a few hrs on PS4 but stopped, hoping it would come over to Xbox so i can have the entire Yakuza collection as digital on next gen ! This was the period when Sega started releasing the Yakuza games on Xbox. Yaaas!
So I am not blind and it actually looks worse.
So we got:
-No cross buy
-No cross save
-No pc
-Graphics seem soul less compared to the original
Just what is this Sega? The more I think about this the more disappointed I get.

Not gonna complaint as I got it for nearly 8e but man, no ps4 upgrade sucks
Okay, don't worry sega, I prefer my ps4 version 🤣🤣
You're right! The lighting is different, and the model looks adjusted too.

The vibrant tint they had in the original game gave it a less Yakuza feeling. Why they got rid of it is beyond me. It added a lot to the atmosphere.
Even without the cross buy, I might have considered it, but seeing as I am many hours into the PS4 version , no cross save just ends my interest.
Got a couple more comparison shots, one I did myself and one I grabbed from someone else. They really fucked with the color tone and the lighting and I think the game as a whole looks way worse.
I know it's just a trailer, but the next gen version looks worse so far. If you had shown me these screens without telling me which was which, I would've assumed the PS4 version was the enhanced one.You're right! The lighting is different, and the model looks adjusted too.

Same. If dual sense is great I'll buy on ps5 otherwise it will be Xbox because I'm bitter then I don't have any way to upgrade. Could do a 20 bucks deal at least. Jeez
Weird. Even the depth of field seems like it was reduced/cut.Got a couple more comparison shots, one I did myself and one I grabbed from someone else. They really fucked with the color tone and the lighting and I think the game as a whole looks way worse.
The new lighting is definitely better in regards to how it realistically lights up the scene. Even if light is being cast on someone from one direction, in such a well-lit room as that, you're not going to get cascading shadows across the side of your face. That's not how light works. But that's just the problem: in the original game, it was clearly a stylistic lighting choice, not a realistic one.You're right! The lighting is different, and the model looks adjusted too.

What I'm saying is, the new lighting model seems to have been introduced without regard for how the original lighting worked for the game artistically. The PS4 lighting in the top is very stylized, while the XSX lighting seems substantially flatter due to seemingly coming at Yagami head-on, even though it's more "realistic". The materials, while visibly improved (like skin texture), still aren't good enough to make the new lighting model have greater impact. It just makes everything look "off".

Gives me GTA3 era PC ports vibe where they removed the effects and atmosphere.
Blergh, Stadia? No amount of exclusivity is going to suddenly make me invest in cloud gaming yet, the internet here in the UK just isn't up to snuff in a lot of places.
Already completed it on PS4, and I wasn't the biggest fan of the gameplay (story was great tho) so I guess I'm not in a massive rush to play it again, but still kinda disappointing for now. Until the exclusivity lapses anyway.

It sucks loyal fans, who supported their games over the years, have to buy the whole game again just to get the upgrade.
As much as I love this and the Yakuza games, I'll wait and pick it up really cheap or for it to come to PS+, like I did with Control.

Makes me think this is being done by Sega Europe/America.
Latest Japanese stream was last week and all it had was them mentioning that Yakuza 7 on PS5 was a repackaging of the western release for Japan. So i wonder if they have been involved in anything since the PS4 release of RGG7 last year.
Edit: Got confirmation that the Japanese Xbox SKU is in fact different from the Western SKU. Weird world!

Same thing happened with Ryu ga Gotoku 7. If you bought it this time last year at release you still need to pay for the PS5 release.
Now that I think of it, there were no upgrades for Zero, Kiwami, or Ishin either.
Pretty happy for a Xbox Series version, they skip Xbox One but I can understand why. What I can't understand is why don't offer a upgrade path for PS4 owners. It's bullshit when Sony do it for Spider-Man and it's bullshit now.
Ahem. Did you reserve both version ? It looks much better on PS4. Didn't watch trailersComparison between the PS4 launch trailer:
And the remastered trailer:
This was the only scene that's similar, so no other trailer image comparisons.
But here are a couple of screenshot comparisons:

The more I see the more I dislike the way it looks.
Just why did you do this Sega???
It isn't wrong. The PS4 version looks better. The filter they had is gone.
Oh gosh, really? I was planning on grabbing the XBox version so I'd get the Windows 10 version that will inevitably drop -- I'll give this a shot.
