This post is hilarious. The opinions of the port from DF is just that, opinions.
People are allowed to both be impressed with how many sacrifices were made to get the game running on Switch and to also not want to deal with those sacrifices.
Exactly, i don't understand the comparisons here with XB1X and Pro versions, it's all about the portability. There is no reason to play AAA ports docked on switch if you have any other platform and reactions like that must deter third party publishers which is unfortunate.The point of these ports is really to play them in portable mode. There's no reason to play DOOM or Wolfenstein 2 in docked mode if you have access to any other platform capable of running it. In portable mode, however, it's an entirely different story.
Are you living in some alternate universe of rational decency where the overall tone here is "This is a super impressive port, congrats to the team that made it happen, but it's not for me"?This post is hilarious. The opinions of the port from DF is just that, opinions.

I think his point is that people who have no idea what they're saying or really understand the technical specifics are making statements based on the DF analysis. What's weird is those who actually DID the analysis are coming to entirely opposite conclusions than the people who are citing them to begin with.
Huh. Yikes.but it's also the blurriest game of the generation thus far - but the how and why is worth exploring.
Well, yeah. 360p is far from impressive. It's a miracle it runs on the Switch but doesn't look like it was worth the hassleIn general, it's comparable to the Switch version of Doom but seems to scale towards the low-end more often. There's no getting around it - this really is a very blurry game
What is your contribution to a meaningful discussion in this thread?yeah we have nothing better do to that bear the dead horse for not apparent reason, you are right there, that how forums work. anyone expecting any meaningful discussion out of this is a fool.
"resolution makes a game mediocre" the stupid hot take of the day
I agree with this. I play my Switch almost entirely handheld. I'm purposely waiting on games like this because I know I'll actually be able to play the game and finish it. I've got a PS4, so I'm perfectly fine making concessions like IQ, especially if it's more apparent in a mode ill hardly ever use.
there are some other things that could be discussed but, as I said, this thread already got its way (360p too blurry, me not like) so nothing worth to contribute will change its course. so not really bothering with doing so.What is your contribution to a meaningful discussion in this thread?
Huh. Yikes.

anyone using words like Yikes that no one uses on their day by day is like shitposting. dont mind himGood lord, dude. That's pretty subjective cherry-picking on your quotes.
I don't think that this screen shot would look too hot on a 6" 720p either. Also game would look even worse in portable mode with even lower resolution, woudn't it?and they also said that you only should focus on dock mode if you have no other way to play the game.
that that screen shot and resize it to the Switch screen
Yeah, that's like saying a sleeping bag isn't as comfortable as a queen-sized pillow top mattress when you're camping in the middle of Yellowstone.Exactly, i don't understand the comparisons here with XB1X and Pro versions, it's all about the portability.
Now that's silly, what if you want to go camping in the middle of Yellowstone? Having a nicer experience available doesn't mean you can't enjoy a different experience for whatever reasons (portability, gyro aim, etc.).There is no reason to play AAA ports docked on switch if you have any other platform
did you miss the whole argument on teh thread that teh game looks better on portable? rather than on the big screen?I don't think that this screen shot would look too hot on a 6" 720p either. Also game would look even worse in portable mode with even lower resolution, woudn't it?
the hell does this means?

They've already said they have more plans for the Switch. I imagine they must be pleased with Switch sales so far to make such a claim.
Reactions are meaningless. What deters third party publishers is a lack of sales. Money, as always, is the key to this discussion.Exactly, i don't understand the comparisons here with XB1X and Pro versions, it's all about the portability.

for me the most important things are frame rate and image quality, frame rate is really good and i don't care about 60 fps for this, but image quality is not really acceptable
panic button should have prioritize resolution over graphical setting
It doesn't look better. It's harder to see how bad it looks. Just like pouring soap in my eyes wouldn't make Laurence Fishburne look prettier, but it would make a moon surface, that is his face to attract less of my attention.did you miss the whole argument on teh thread that teh game looks better on portable? rather than on the big screen?
The fuck are you babbling on about?It doesn't look better. It's harder to see how bad it looks. Just like pouring soap in my eyes wouldn't make Laurence Fishburne look prettier, but it would make a moon surface, that is his face to attract less of my attention.
Exactly. It's the absolute worst case. It doesn't normally just run at 360p! It's usually closer to the middle, I'd say. Gets worse in the later stages but still in the 540p territory on average.For the last time, it doesn't run at 360p. 360p is just the worst case scenario, its very rare that it hits 360p in docked mode.
What? That was just an example. I recently rewatched The Matrix in 4K. I wish I didn't do that.

Good point. I found the audio to be not quite as good as the other version but it didn't bother me as it did in Doom. So I think it's improved.The biggest problem with Doom on Switch is the audio.
The df video doesn't mention anything about the sound quality for Wolf 2 so I'm guessing it doesn't suffer from the same compressed and flat issues as Doom' s port.
Wolf 2 isn't a game I'm looking yo play through again anytime soon but the port seems as good as anyone could realistically hope for.
We have to wait and see. Are they going to be original games or more compromised ports?They've already said they have more plans for the Switch. I imagine they must be pleased with Switch sales so far to make such a claim.
"B-b-but the Switch still runs the game!"It doesn't look better. It's harder to see how bad it looks. Just like pouring soap in my eyes wouldn't make Laurence Fishburne look prettier, but it would make a moon surface, that is his face to attract less of my attention.
are you having an stroke? should we call for help? if not stop shitposting, this is not /v/
The fuck am I reading here?
If you can't understand how a smaller screen can change how a game looks at varying resolutions then I'm not sure why you're in a DF thread.
But, then the game would have been filled with low quality assets and people would complain more it wouldn't look like the console version at all.for me the most important things are frame rate and image quality, frame rate is really good and i don't care about 60 fps for this, but image quality is not really acceptable

Yes. There are sections like this which look horrible but it's not true of the bulk of the game. This courthouse was always demanding and still is on Switch.Yeah. Author kept repeating how impressed he was with this port, so I was kinda began agreeing with him, but then he showed this scene...

I think this narrative that they're matters of the Switch hardware is a bit misplaced.Nice video.
I'd like a video of someone going through Panic Button's history. How did they learn how to scale games like this? Is it just experience? Do they have alot of history of porting to weaker hardware before? I've never heard of the studio before Switch came into the scene... so it's strange that all of a sudden they come out out of nowhere and seem to be masters of switch hardware.
