A game is more than an engine. It's possible to make an unstable PoS game on top of even the best engines out there. Just because there's a framework doesn't mean it is necessarily utilized well (or in some cases, at all). There's also a lot to a game that has nothing to do with the engine at all if it's anything particularly complex, as well. It's hard to say where the failing is.
Death Stranding is great on PC. This post doesn't make any sense at all.
Virtuous is quite cheap probably since they mainly work as an outsourcing shop and they did a decent job with a few other PC ports such as Heavy Rain. So it's probably not their fault if Sony didn't give them enough time or budget. Can't be sure of course, but that's what my instinct says.
*null_ptr = 0xDEADBEEF; //Force an exception that will trigger crashpad.Aha, that makes more sense. Then it's pretty natural it's hitting that code as it's part of error handling.

Chrome has a special "about:inducebrowsercrashforrealz" URL that crashes the browser by doing a null-pointer dereference just like that. Or at least it did it that way in the past, looking at more recent code it looks like it just crashes by failing an assert now.
Despite reports, the PC version of Horizon Zero Dawn is not a debug build
Yesterday, a report surfaced on Reddit, suggesting that the PC version is actually a debug build of the game. However, that's not the case.
That's only true for purchases directly made from a steam/GoG/Epic/PSN/XBL account, in case of third party retailers where you get a key that you redeem on the platform you play the game on you can't really return it if you've already assigned the key to your account on that platform.
All the upset PC fans will surely buy a PS5 now to play the sequel.
Tbh bunch of those are pretty good like BF1, BFV, Shadow of Tomb Raider, Rise of Tomb Raider, Jurassic World Evolution and ofcourse TLoU Remastered and Nathan Drake collection. Though I suspect in all those cases the main studio did a lot of heavy lifting as well.Per Wikipedia:
Hell, not even debug builds. Turning off compiler optimizations alone makes you appreciate how much heavy lifting those things do.
Sony's first party PC games will never have DLSS, since they will always partner with AMD for obvious reasons.
Would 'real' debug builds for a full game even make sense these days? Yet alone to even distributing such? It'd run so slow to be naught unplayable. Most 'debug' builds I see for performance intensive applications seem to just be tick a few processor definitions to enable more verbose logging, enabling more assertions, and maybe tone down compiler optimizations(even in just a specific file) just a little bit. Not going full bore debug mode, outside of an individual dev working on a very specific bug, like hunting down heap corruption or something.
U know...maybe i would have laughed at u two days ago...but god damn is the game good. I just want it in all its glory. Its so good, i may consider buying a ps5. Only done that sht once in my life, and it was cause of bloodborne.
Hold on, wasn't the Uncharted Collection remastered by BluePoint ?Per Wikipedia:
Yes, most of these credits are for assistance, not for "full ports"
We made you wait to regret not getting it on PlayStation in the first place!
They definitely didn't take lead on Shadow of the Tomb Raider, modern Tomb Raider on PC is all Nixxes Software.Per Wikipedia:
Aaaaand this is why publishers implement harsh denuvo with each release on PC.
Please explain why you think that HZD isn't "in the same stratosphere as the Arkham release"
Death stranding has dlss....Sony's first party PC games will never have DLSS, since they will always partner with AMD for obvious reasons.
