Valkyria Chronicles 4 - Switch vs PS4 Visual Comparison

Hows the fps? Stable 60fps on both?
Wait this game running in 30fps on consoles? The first one ran at 60fps though
All the more reason why this should be able to run at 60 fps on PS4 (especially Pro). It looks like a PS3 game. Really surprised, and a bit disappointed it's locked to 30 fps on PS4. At least it's gonna have 4K support to make up for it, right?!
Why not? Based on the demo if it's not it's too close to call or using some kind of AA solution that makes it look it.
Really no excuse no longer interested in the game. Well maybe in deep deep sale used eventually or just avoid it altogether lots of other games to look forward too hmm.... this game does not look much different than Valkyria Chronicles
Not really surprising, VC4 looks and play just like VC1, which was originally released a decade ago and is far from being a demanding game, even my very weak fanless laptop runs it just fine.
There's a big-ass difference in image quality, not enough to bother me though, and certainly much less pronounced than the image quality hit that the overwhelming majority of same gen console -> portable transitions have caught over the years.
The Switch version does look impressive. But it also highlights how unimpressive the PS4 version is to me. Can we talk about why the PS4 version isn't hitting 60 fps? Am I wrong in feeling like it definitely should be able to do that?
I mean, on the one hand I agree with you two on principle. On the other hand, I also don't see how 60fps would actually benefit a turn based game is all.
Yeah, but principle matters. I wasn't too thrilled when Resident Evil Origins was capped to 30 fps on consoles for no good reason. And there are plenty of amazing looking games on PS4 that can hit a solid 60 fps wthout issues. Meanwhile, this simple looking game with great art direction doesn't.
So that really makes me wonder if they even bothered to give it 4K support. If it doesn't have that, I'll probably vote with my wallet because 30 fps and no 4K support on a game this simple looking is not acceptable to me.
You could be it depends on how cpu instensive the game is.
There is no set measurement to what hardware should be able to do per title. It's all in how it is programmed for that hardware.
DF had a good video on how different games are effected differently by hardware. Some are cpu bottle necked some are more gpu intensive but none of them are affected exactly the same.
Someone's got a very charitable recollection of what Rogue Galaxy looked like.
Yeah, but... isn't this running on the same engine as VC Rematered?
Best I can tell, it seems like there are no Pro features for this game whatsoever (for now, it's possible they do add them after the western release). So, uh... yeah haha.
That's... really bad. Makes the PS4 version look like a low budget release.
That's about what I'd expect out of a console that's 4 times less powerful than the other.
I'm ok with it though, the tradeoff seems reasonable to me. I'll still wait for the final release to come out though, just to be sure the framerate/framepacing are OK. I'm not in a hurry with the VC series anyways.

None yet
To be fair that's quite literally what it was, no different from Persona 5.
