Try forcing the resolution to 1080p in the ps4 pro settings and see if it improves the framerate?
TAKE REVENGE. RESTORE YOUR HONOR.
KILL INGENIOUSLY
Developer: From Software
Release Date: March 22nd, 2019
Platforms: PC, XB1, PS4
Price: $59.99 (Standard Edition)
Carve your own clever path to vengeance in an all-new adventure from developer FromSoftware, creators of Bloodborne and the Dark Souls series.
You are the "one-armed wolf", a disgraced and disfigured warrior rescued from the brink of death. Bound to protect a young lord who is the descendant of an ancient bloodline, you become the target of many vicious enemies, including the dangerous Ashina clan. When the young lord is captured, nothing will stop you on a perilous quest to regain your honor, not even death itself.
Explore late 1500s Sengoku Japan, a brutal period of constant life and death conflict, as you come face to face with larger than life foes in a dark and twisted world. Unleash an arsenal of deadly prosthetic tools and powerful ninja abilities while you blend stealth, vertical traversal, and visceral head to head combat in a bloody confrontation.

OUUUUUUUUUUUH YEAH my first OT suggestion!
We need a tenchu one for the second OT
I'm finding the parry timing pretty easy, but god damn is it fun. Shame about the framerate though. I will try to force 1080p later, but this performance as of now is quite From Software typical honestly.
I'm dodging spoilers like crazy, just want to know, do we know the unlock time for Steam already?
Are you playing on the PS4 Pro? Is so are there options for performance or graphics?
Wait?! Do you already have it?
No action mode like nioh? Typical FromSoft, bet there's gonna be a swamp level that tanks the frame rate even further too 😂
I don't understand why I am so hyped for this game.
I've failed at every Soulsborne game I've tried. Given up after a few hours.
Why is this game so enticing? From where is this hype coming? Is it cause of Tenchu? Is it cause it's offline? Is it cause it's got no stamina bar? Is it cause it's more action focused?
I DON'T KNOW! And truth be told I am scared buying the game out of sheer hype because I feel I'll put it down in a few hours after getting my ass handed to me.
WHY DOES FROM HAVE TO MAKE GIT GUD GAMES! UGH!

Nice. Been hyped for this since the leak. Don't really like that they've been showing too many bosses though. Kept running into spoilery thumbnails for awhile now.
Did they say how long it would be?

Nice. Can't wait, though I will have to wait for some time unfortunately, since I'm broke atm.
It's also refreshing to look at the minimum PC specs and know that my entry level laptop is a fair bit above them. Definitely going to go PC this round for more smooth framerates in gameplay.

Beyond Hyped. Miyazaki is one of the most important game creators working IMO. Few tap into my sensibilities as completely as he does.
While I'm more of a stickler for native languages in film/TV than games, but I'm 100℅ playing this with Japanese VA and English Subs.

OP
OP
went ahead and threadmarked this. Also thank you very much for your help!
And thanks everyone for the kind words.
HYPE
Game has leaked in France too. One guy said the gameplay is fluid on PS4 fat. Dunno if reliable.
To carry it over from the other thread:
If you can find a second, can you check what "Auto Hide Partial" HUD option does exactly? Thanks for your help and enjoy, not going to lie, I'm jealous as hell haha...
In regards to the OT: Great work, OP, thanks man.
There was one up 30 mins ago but it looks like the streamer got banned.
