Releases for €60 in my local currency, so far it seems on a technical level it’s done well enough, FPS seems stable except during cutscenes (oddly enough, a lot report dropping to 30 or lower).

Sadly have not found information yet about FoV or keybindings.

    Man reading through comments here… I’m getting real burned out on the constant negativity in the gaming community. It’s always been negative, but ffs we used to have fun too. Now a new game drops, no issues I’ve heard so far and it’s still only negative stuff. Isn’t anyone excited?

      On a HZD post, I remember saying years ago I can’t wait because I’d love to play it on keyboard and mouse!

      Got downvoted like hell and someone replied, “you can’t play it with a mouse and keyboard”.

      I was completely baffled as to what’s going on.

      Feels to me like some folks just want to give due warning to help others from throwing money away. I don’t think most are being negative for negativity’s sake - but I may just be too optimistic about the state of the discourse.

    You can change FoV and keybindings. There’s a lot of customization options in general. For example, it’s possible to switch between pickup+animation, pickup and Auto-collect. Lots of graphic customization too. It’s lightyears ahead of the launch of Zero Dawn (which isn’t hard tbf). Still, 60€ for a few years old game is annoying

    Digital Foundry review for those that are interested. They generally give it the thumbs up. Not much in the way of new graphical features over the PS5, but just the higher resolution and DLSS/FSR makes a big difference. I’ve got it waiting on my computer to try out tonight. I loved Zero Dawn, so I’m really excited to finally play this

    I haven’t finished it on my PS5, and I could essentially buy it twice. But Sony blocks save transfers 🤷‍♂️

    If you own the first one, just play through it again.

        Game play is better, but similar. The improvements make it a fun challenge to take down the monsters piece by piece. I didn’t enjoy the game play of the first nearly as much.

        The continuation of the story is good, but not as intriguing as the first. If story in the first was 10/10, this one is 8/10; so still pretty good.

        If you enjoyed the first one, this one is definitely worth playing. There will also be a 3rd and having played the 2nd game will be required to understand the story.

    For a game that has been released since February 2022 to only have bullshots on their steam page… Edit: Even the trailer they have on the steam page for the pc release has barely 10 seconds of real gameplay in 1:30 minutes, they really dont believe in people buying the game for what it is.

      The trailer is all ingame content. The game has been out for a year, it’s not that hard to check. None of it is a bullshot.

        The game has been out for more than 2 years, not 1, most of what is in the trailer and screenshots of the steam page is cinematics and bullshots, bullshots are in game images edited to appear better than they are, most of those fit that definition, both by framing and by retouches that are not present in moving gameplay, like lighting fixes, focus, depth of field etc. Im not critizing the game, just stating what is on that steam page, which is pretty sad for a game that has been out for more than 2 years and has pretty good graphics by itself.

          It’s the photo mode, it’s just ingame images. Literal screenshots. This is stupid.

            Thanks for stating im right. Have a nice day and try to not be so passive agressive with someone that is stating facts and not even saying anything bad about a game in an online forum.

              It’s okay to just say I was wrong. Reddit was better than lemmy has become honesty. It’s full of this shit.

                Maybe you should reflect on that mate, even if it was true that those were done in photo mode, not in engine, photo mode does let them change light, focus, blur, depth of field, and so on, which would by definition be already bullshots not how the game looks in movement. Not to say that its obvious most of the steam pics do have post edits. So yeah, i think this place is indeed becoming worse than reddit, there people wasnt so protective of game companies to such a stupid level and people didnt take offense from a comment about the steam page of a game that doesnt even talk about the game itself.
