Very high amounts of post process and a 'heavier' implementation of TAA.
PS4 Pro seems to run a slightly different version of TAA so even though it runs at a lower resolution (likely, if we go by RE7), it ends up looking a bit sharper.

Very high amounts of post process and a 'heavier' implementation of TAA.
PS4 Pro seems to run a slightly different version of TAA so even though it runs at a lower resolution (likely, if we go by RE7), it ends up looking a bit sharper.
From the screenshots posted here, I really prefer the look of the 1X version. It has that "The Order" soft post-processed look which I find a million times more appealing than overly sharp with tons of jaggies and visible artifacts. I only have the PS4 pro though. Hopefully, I can achieve better than both on my PC.
1080P 60FPS
I also noticed
Am sure the High Resolution mode will look better.
Oh, both are running in that mode in the demo with no option for the 4K30 mode?
Then 1X definitely wins for that mode.
Oh, I didn't realize there would be a high resolution mode. Guess I'll wait for the DF analysis. Let them do the heavy lifting comparing the various options and versions :)
It's certainly a preference thing but you can't not see how the blurring on XBX causes a lot of textures and elements to look overly blurry/lower quality than PS4 Pro.
For example:
Pro to the left, XBX to the right.
Police desk sign:
The RPD badge on Leon's outfit is barely legible on the XBX.
where's the 3rd emblem?
I got the unicorn and lion. also blasted hell it does look better on pro for some reason. this plus binaural support is pushing me to now switch to ps4 since ive also got platinum headsets.
anyways. shit feels like Remake in every way except for re4 camera.
the zombies are super fucking resilient. does this game have gun upgrades? coz if not popping their kneecaps and knifing seems 100 times more efficient especially since they trip over each other. thought to be fair im noticing their health varies based on who they are. with average civilians going doing in 2-3 shots while cops take like 6 or 7.

I'll take a few jaggies over that blur, glad I'm getting this on Pro but hopefully both have some improvements for the final build.
Is this the same engine that DMC5 is running on?
I was impressed at how good it looked on the X demo running at 60 fps.

its immediately apparent in person but ill wait for the final copy before deciding.
So weird. The X version is blurry and the Pro version has a ton of jaggies. Any chance this is an early version of the game and these issues will be corrected with the launch version?It's certainly a preference thing but you can't not see how the blurring on XBX causes a lot of textures and elements to look overly blurry/lower quality than PS4 Pro.
For example:
Pro to the left, XBX to the right.
Police desk sign:

Not only a high chance.. am pretty sure that is what's going on.
You seen the RE engine. Even with the DMC 5 demo. It is a piece of a beauty. This does not represent final version.
Pro to the left, XBX to the right ..
look at the sign and plant. Yikes. Looks like a reverse RDR2 situation.
Someone said that things from the E3 build weren't in this demo, so it's probably not a 1 : 1 of the same code. It might be a chunk off the release code owing to how soon it's releasing to retail release.

So its like RE7 PC when SSR set to ON instead of Variable? (you can choose between black pixelated mess or less reflections)
You can play as much in that 30 minute time.

I'll wait fo the final release on this. Seems a lot of the features on both systems is missing
Okay, that's good to hear!
Can't wait to see how the PC version looks maxed out. Hopefully no jaggies or blur!
I feel like it might take more time that that just to get the HDR set up correctly. :(
Are there likely to be any full game unlocks for completing the demo?
If not, I think I'll wait.
If not, I think I'll wait.
The timer only counts when you are playing. I even pause the timer a few times.
Thankfully any time in menus or cutscenes is not counted on the timer.
No unlocks
Any word on implementation? Looking around all I see is that it's planned for the game, but no details as to whether they're talking about RTX only or DLSS, and no idea if it's at launch or not. My 2080 is hungry y'all.
It's certainly a preference thing but you can't not see how the blurring on XBX causes a lot of textures and elements to look overly blurry/lower quality than PS4 Pro.
For example:
Pro to the left, XBX to the right.
I wouldn't blame anyone for completely hating the image on the right, but I find stuff like grain and image softness easier on the eyes than jaggies and shimmering. One my brain interprets as closer to a film and more organic the other I immediately reject as something digital and unnatural. Of course, this is taken into account when the image is viewed as a whole. In these zoomed in examples where neither seems to have any digital artefacts, the clarity on the left is more appealing.
Fingers crossed.
Not that it looks terrible or anything but the jaggies and blur bring down the presentation on both consoles a bit. While not a deal breaker, it would be a shame if it wasn't improved, as everything else about the game looks amazing.
You're in luck if you're getting this on PC, if the PC version is like RE7, you can opt to just have SMAA for jaggies galore or FXAA + TAA for a slightly better looking TAA image.
I will take 4K with SMAA on PC. I'm not sitting that close to the screen.
The timer only moves when you are controlling Leon, it freezes when you pause, go to inventory and during cutscenes.
finished the demo. my only niggling issue is that the shotgun lacks a lot of OOMPH, though I imagine that's by design.
this is going to be a masterpiece.

I'm not getting my hopes up. The X version of RE7 is softer than the Pro version, even though it runs at a higher resolution.
Demo Impressions thread is up, with mod permission https://www.resetera.com/threads/resident-evil-2-demo-impressions-thread-demo-spoilers-only.92650/
Yep, change in resolution probably won't change the TAA implementation either console uses. The same trade off was present in RE7 as well. Pro had sharper image quality but more visually noisy, XBX was less noisy/more stable but the IQ was worse/blurrier.
I refuse to believe the X will be a blurry final mess. That makes 0 sense.
First comparison
Pro
1X
Pro seems sharper but jaggier. Pro has some weird depth of field going on during some cutscenes, blurring Leon in odd ways. More coming.
SSR looks much better on the X.
finished, took around 27 minutes. gonna speedrun it on another account now
Framerate is close to 60fps, but often especially in cutscenes, it drops frames. Generally though it's smooth.
