I mean shit you pay for your impatience if you play it on PS4 despite having a PC. Otherwise they announced the PC version before the PS4 version came out.

Also PCs are more expensive than PS4s. Of course the product will be better if the hardware that runs it is more epxensive and powerful lol.
He's not referring to framerate. He's referring to Aspect Ratio and how TV shows are pretty much always 16:9 while movies are often 21:9.
Who was under the impression that the PC version of this wouldn't look significantly better. The same will be true of Horizon Zero Dawn and every other PC release since the dawn of time.
For sure, but i mean in general terms, the typical case is monitor vs TV.
Death Stranding on 21:9 will be glorious.
Imagine the landscapes !
As a day one buyer I must say that I completely disagree with this tweet.

Seems kind of a pointless thought considering that you'll probably be able to carry your PS4 version forward to the PS5. Ultimately I think it's kind of a gross thing with someone with a large following of fragile gamers to blast out there. You're just painting a target on the devs for saying normal things about a PC release of their game.
It's pretty obvious that a PC version of any graphically intensive game should be able to provide significant benefits over a console version. That almost always holds true. Especially for a console at the end of its life cycle.
So I don't think touting the PC version (especially as it is releasing later) is a problem.

Isn't that usually the case with PC anyway!
Most of the PC games can be run at high framerates and 21.9 aspect ratio.
Looking forward to check this out.

If a console version being inferior to the PC version down the line makes people feel like suckers for buying it... Maybe they should stop buying consoles?
I played Yakuza 0 on PS4, it later came out on PC, it's better on PC, I don't give a shit. I got what I paid for.
Imagine thinking that frame rate is what makes something cinematic.
Or that you don't have the option of playing PC games at 24Hz if you really wanted to do that to yourself.
What I really wish is that LG or a competitor would start producing ultra-wide televisions.
The aspect ratio is so much better for gaming or watching movies.

Whether it feels like a TV drama or a movie, if you're going into Death Stranding for the plot or narrative you're going to be disappointed.
If it's just for the ultrawide screen, this applies for virtually every video game out there as well. Especially high fidelity, AAA ones.
its back on steam top seller, lets hope it sells boys so we can get some more sony love. Horizon will sell much more.
Not sure i agree. I'd gladly trade 21:9 to get to play the game 6 months earlier. Its not like the PC port was unannounced *shrug*
It is like watching a TV drama on 21:9 compared to the cinematic experience of playing this on my 32:9.
there's that clickbait title at work, he was referring to aspect ratio
Yeah it's still a very badly paced game with an appalling end sequence.
So it's like watching a flawed movie rather than a flawed TV show

It's a comparison of aspect ratios not quality, its not slagging anything off.
Let's see how many more people will deliberately misread or ignore context so they can "well ackshually" this one.
But when has the PC version not been superior to the console version?
I mean it's happened, but the couple fo times have gone down as notorious ports.
Why shouldn't he beam about the game hitting the strengths of that platform. If it came out on the switch, he shouldn't say anything about the portability, because it might hurt the feelings of some console fanboys?
Makes no sense.
I have an ultra wide monitor and it's great. But the only reason I got it was because most 4k monitor sizes suck right now and are stuck at 60hz. Theres so much vertical information just missing from your view.
Not everything has to be a controversy, dude. Sheesh, the guy can't even stop himself from talking in adversarial terms at this point.
This is was what put me over the edge, I'm finally the old man who tells Jim to calm down and not be so negative.
Really looking to get drama out of the most innocuous shit.
Yes, the PC version of a game is indeed the best version of said game, news at 11.
Games should be cross-buy between PC and consoles on day-1. Play the best version on the device you're playing with.
This is vonna look ACE on PC.
I didn't get to beat it yet but its definitely a fun ride if you get into the gameplay loop of "hey I can stop here on my way and pick up or drop of stuff. Might as well" x100.

I don't think it's so much that the pc version is better. No one wants to feel like they got a bad version of the game which is how that quote kind of comes off as.
Kojima Production's OG vision of the game was 60 fps according to the dev team, and the PS4 and PS4Pro could not deliver that. It says that in the article if you read it.
It's still a messy Indulgent vanity project though right? I mean aspect ratio doesn't change that I'd imagine?
