I'm having the exact same audio buzz issue. Seems to only happen when in a cutscene, a character talks, or transitioning to a new area (with new music). Hasn't been constant in my 2 hours of play, but definitely annoying when it happens

Have the exact same issue.

Not sure if related, but I tried the NZ trick (I live in Montreal), fired up the game... Got to the loading screen (Ori running), and it has crashed my XB1X twice. Is this a known issue?

Edit: I have tried 2 more times with no luck. Game crashes at the same spot every time. Guess my trip to NZ was a short one.

You probably don't want to turn it down, you won't get clipping.
Go to Windows 10 settings, change your region. No reboot needed. You can change it back after a few hours when the game launched in your specific region.

All right, thanks to both of you for answering! :) Just tried the region change and it worked flawlessly.

One last question, though. Is that Day One patch already out on PC Game Pass? Got that weird buzzing noise bug that was mentioned here, too.

Lots of different environments within the first part of the game. Feels more like a whole world.

this game is.. really really crazy.

If you have a TV that supports HDR, make sure you play this game.

I think you're just a pretty damn good player. Hard is very challenging and the escapes are 25% tougher... I mean, even I die every now and then trying to do them on Hard. Hard Mode was specifically made for people who played through the game at least once on Normal Mode, sort of as a 'Quest B' type of situation where you now have to play much more strategically and have to know exactly what you're doing or you'll get punished.

Out of interest, how does the '25% tougher' manifest? Are the hazards faster on Hard or does it vary depending on the sequence?

Call me stupid but I really don't know the particulars of HDR through PC.

If I connect to my 4K HDR TV from my PC via HDMI will it automatically allow for HDR in settings or whatever?

Counting the hours left at work... only decision will be if I want the beauty or the smoothness of my monitor.

Thanks for the help, thought I have to backtrack for the tooth not go forward. 😅

Unfortunately, had another huge 3 second freeze right before the quest giver area.
That really annoys me.
Playing on the X, internally.

A lot of games require you to turn on the HDR setting in Windows for the option to pop in-game. With that being said, I just tried it on my PC (doing the New Zealand trick) and the option didn't come up so I wonder if the Day 1 patch is not out on PC still?

I seriously can't play the pc game pass version with a dualshock 4??? I can only walk, jump and open the map, is this a known problem with windows 10 and game pass? Only got game pass now to play early...

Just got the dash and it feels so good. Combined with spamming the Spirit Edge you can go places! I'm saving up for triple jump, so let's see how difficult it get without buying any weapons or upgrades. Juggling multiple ground and air enemies, popping arrows mid air and using the sword is really fun! Looks stunning in ultrawide without any stuttering on my 1080. I'm gonna hook up my PC to the OLED later and see where I'm gonna end up.

Ahhhh the spinning animation when you dash on to a pole is just the best!!!

This game is visually such a step up. And its not that Blind Forest was ugly. Far from it.

Is HDR support on PC only coming with the Day 1 patch? I've spent the last hour fiddling with so many settings to get it to work and nothing has. Just seems to have no detection for it at all.

One of the devs posted here saying hdr support was coming later on PC. Think I'll still play it over the Xbox S version.

Really loving it so far. However just did encounter a dreaded save bug. Lost about an hours progress. Luckily I enjoy it so much it doesn't feel like a choir redoing it but still...

Windows Store / Game Pass games usually require you to enable HDR first in Windows' display settings before launching a game. It's the only way to tell the game, "hey, I have an HDR display here".

It doesn't sound like this game in PC has HDR support though

So... the game is great.
However, I'll probably come back to it tomorrow when I'm less pissed off, because it stopped reacting to controls at one point, so I restarted my Xbox One X and when I tried to continue, the last save the game kept was like an HOUR AGO.
I was missing several abilities and upgrades and one boss fight.
I don't want to deal with this shit again rn.

Cool game, tho.

Edit: Oh and the best thing is that I even physically saved at a Shrine about 5 minutes before it broke down. That save was straight up missing.
