From reading the thread it seems the opposite. Its the first game Xbox shows any sort of tangible advantage so after months of giving a beating all the PS defensive team are rushing to defend the loss.
Please show examples of these posts. And compare the number against defensive posts.
It's like we are back in the PS2/Xbox era again. It's going to be a tiring generation hearing people bicker about this dumb shit for the next ~6-7 Years.
XSX and PS5 are the same price. The PS5 Digital isn't directly comparable as it doesn't have a disc drive (although I do believe the PS5 Digital is probably the single best bang for your buck we've ever seen from a console).
This happened with the Xbox One / PS4 generation, too. And the Xbox 360 / PS3 generation. It happens every generation. This isn't new.
Grass-Gate 2.0 BAYBEE! Was easily the dumbest console war playground last gen.
Because HDMI 2.1 is technically capable of 8K throughput. It has nothing to do with the power of the system. It's frankly just a dumb marketing term.
This could be a bug, but I think the Dirt 5 bug was way more obvious, because the shadow setting can also be simply optimization work. In case of Dirt 5 the car with the messed up LOD literally looked like a bad PS3/360 gen car. Therefore it was extremely obvious that this was a bug.
Sure but I dunno it seems more...pronounced this time around? Last gen seemed not as bad for this. The absolute height of console war garbage being the PS2/Xbox era. IMO
Last gen was horrible. Especially at the start. The whole 900p Xbox One thing was rampant, with endless arguments/memes/etc.. Hell, people still regularly bring up that IGN video of all the guys saying "the human eye can't even see 1080p anyway!" or whatever, as well as that Xbox exec horribly stating that all HDTVs output 1080p so it doesn't matter.
Honestly, after the sh!tshow that came during the Xb1 and Ps4 launch from the other site, it's pretty tame now.
That's an extreme example, but better shadows on Series X are a consistent result because the Series X is running High quality shadows while the PS5 has Medium quality shadows.
Can you link the post? Don´t want to browse 18 pages.
I think that's basically impossible the game is already being optimized on XB1, XB1X, Series S, Series X, PS4, Pro, PSVR, PS5 and PC and apparently really good on everything (well at leat down to the mid gens, not sure about base last gens), IO aren't that big either I don't think, it's a tremendous effort all done during a pandemic.
Is it gonna be grass this time? Maybe slightly lower average dynamic res? Oooh, what about lower resolution RT reflections. These totally essential features will make for very fun threads lmao.
Hiding the results in the title would actually be the more click-baiting move ("You won't believe the winner").
The new trend for click bait gaming videos is to hyperbolize. "PS5 Destroys Xbox with unbelievable news". Obviously DF is not going that far, but every comparison video up to now has been completely neutral with its title as far as I can remember. It's more of a baby step towards than full on click-bait. I just am noticing the change of course:
The title isn't clickbaity at all. It says, "An Xbox Advantage in 4K". And then watching the video shows... An Xbox advantage in 4K. They even say during the video that that Xbox is preferable in this game but that all platforms are great.
I watched the video the moment it went up.
Wait a few months until the Series X running better is a consistent result. It should eventually be, the machine is actually more powerful, but it could just be engine quirks making it run better on GPUs with higher CU counts or whatever and this is an exception right now.
