Does the frame pacing seem way more noticeable in 60fps? I could generally ignore it at 30, but it seems really obvious here.

Lance McDonald: Bloodborne Unofficial 60fps Patch Showcase
- Thread starter zombiejames
- Start date
The way this masterpiece is handled by From and Sony post launch is disturbing. No Pro patch. No info on next gen patches/enhancements. Just sad.
Proves it can be done with minimal effort. I fully expect Sony to release a remastered version for $50 though.
It's frankly disgraceful how this title has been treated.

If one guy can get this done you gotta wonder why Sony couldn't at least get a similar patch done in time for launch. I get that they might do a remaster but a small performance patch like this shouldn't be an issue for a massive company like Sony.
It's not a thing, check the DF video in the OP.
Something important that's mentioned at the end of the video: To achieve the 60fps target, the internal resolution had to be reduced to 720p (vs. 1080p the game ships with). Perhaps this is why we never saw the option for the PS4 Pro.
You just answered your own question. Even though it's a really good game, it's still a cult, niche game. It sold well because of marketing + the sheer amount of PS4s out there. But it'll never compete with a Spiderman, for example.
Didn't Japan Studio work on Bloodborne? Why can't Sony have their own studio do it
Someone tweet Yoshida about it, but I would imagine if Sony had any intention to remaster bloodborne they would stay quite for now because they want all the attention on demon souls. It would be a 6months later release after demon souls for marketing purposes. Either get Qloc or Blue Point to jump on this quickly after they are freed up from finishing demon souls. No altering of the game require beside uping the res, frame rate, add TAA, hdr optimized it for ps5 SSD and add some qol improvements from later souls games like auto hide hud and L3 to jump. What Qloc did with dark souls 1 remaster was perfect framework for a bloodborne remaster.

Just kidding...maybe???
That's because it's not actually 60FPS, it's more like 45-55 going by the DF video. Since it's vsynced that means the frame times are constantly jumping between 16ms and 33ms, so yeah if you're sensitive to that, it's pretty bad. The framepacing issues at 30fps are fairly frequent but not continuous the way unlocked framerates are, so it's valid that you would find this to be more noticeable.
If it were a true locked 60fps then there would be no frame pacing issues as that's uniquely an issue of half (or third, quarter, etc) refresh rate frame caps.
We have a Demon's Souls remake and a Darks Souls remaster.
Seems like a natural progression to get a Bloodborne remaster very soon.
All I want - 4k, 60fps and a toggle to turn off the chromatic aberration.

lol. As if Sony particularly treated their game and its devoted community with the utmost "respect."
This is just "base" mode running on a Pro via Boost Mode, though. No official Pro mode means that it doesn't have access to over half the GPU power, in fact it is just 14% clock speed increase (800 vs 911Mhz). It does have full access to the CPU increase though (1.6 vs 2.13Ghz). This would need retooling in order to take advantage of the Pro and would likely be able to run at 60fps at 1080p.
PS5? Shoot for the stars and then some. 4K/60fps should be the absolute minimum expectation.
Seems to run even better than the previous version of the mod, pretty impressive.
From what I remember reading plenty of gameplay-related stuff is timed to 30fps in Bloodborne, the modder had to do more than just unlocking the framerate. So it will take a bit more effort than just uncapping the framerate. If Sony feels like doing it.
I really wish Bloodborne wasn't a Sony owned thing. But I assume that, if it wasn't, it probably wouldn't even exist would it?
It was because of Sony that the souls series even got a start with Demon's Souls. The whole souls series probably wouldn't even happen if demon's souls didn't get the support from Sony that it did.
It seems that a patch is definitely possible, and the fact that they are including this in the PS+ collection makes me optimistic for an official patch.
I'm sure Bamco would have funded/published it if given the chance.
?Demon's Souls was produced by Sony, Demon's souls wouldn't have probably existed without Sony.
Interview: Demon's Souls | Features | Edge Online
It’s hard to imagine a game more at odds with gaming’s current fashions than Demon’s Souls. As developers fall over themselves to reward players for the emptiest of achievements, From Software’s stern demand that players learn, understand and master its game’s systems, or else face severe...web.archive.org
The game itself was developed by from software under the supervision of Sony.
Even the nature of the game was understood correctly by Sony during development:
I'm talking about Bloodborne, the game that was sandwiched between Bamco releases.
While yes, obviously. Sony didn't believe in the game clearly since Atlus brought it West.

They would need to do more work than just a res and framerate bump to justify a pricetag. Better textures or lighting or features, something. I just don't see them investing the time and money to do that for Bloodborne right now.
If they only do a 60fps patch, it will be a free update. No way they charge for that.
You need to be able to play a backup of the game which is patched.
