Doesn't the Switch version have like, a fuckload more content though? Better to have that then prettier graphics.

Well that sucks...

I was looking forward to the new content but... those vistas in the PS4 version are absolutely breathtaking. Maybe I'll just continue with the original version. The QoL stuff never bothered me to begin with.

i mean it is just a port so something had to give. And i get not allocating the budget of grafting everything onto the original port then porting it over.

I'll wait for the remaster in 10 years or whatever.

Yeah, that's what I'm saying. The Switch version had like way more content so wouldn't it be better to get a port of that one even if it's not as pretty as the original PS4 one?
Ideally they would have thought ahead a bit and created that new content with other hardware in mind.

No but seriously, the Switch version still looks awesome. Some assets/places actually look better due to how it has been reworked, like the lighting being less jarring.

There's been comparisons already. It's a newer version of the engine, and the assets aren't as "downgraded" as people make it seem.
It's not the port of The Witcher 3 or whatever.

wait so is it just a patch for those games? or its actually a whole new game.

Whole new game, doesn't seem there will be a patch to add the content to the base game. I'm out on a double dip, felt burned by the S version to begin with so no chance I'm going to give them more money for this.

DQ 11 is beautiful and excellent on the Switch. It's not like it's unplayable. I was completely enamored with it and loved it and e=never once felt it was ugly or unworthy.

But man... I would NEVER expect to see actual Switch graphics on PS4/Xbox when there is an actual version of a game created with the power of those platforms in mind.

How do you have existing versions of a game and decide to develop your additional content tailored to a new version?

That's just complete failure from a planning perspective.

For those still worried...



Just check that again, and imagine it without the compromises on Switch (framerate, resolution, view distance, filtering, etc).

... Nothing around this game's marketing and versions make any sense.
What on Earth.
So the future PS4 and PC "S" versions will co exist with the regular, looking way worse, sounding better, and with QoL and a bit more content?

Smh Square...

I don't know, is Square so I wouldn't bet on that, they will probably charge for the extra content.

yeah they totally are charging full price.

not even the trophies are the same. I honestly have no idea what the fuck square was thinking with this. they couldve just had a single codebase, and release the extra content as DLC.
