I thought it was just me. Got a new HDR 4k set on the 30th (a few days after release) and my 1080p set looked better with more vivid color. I guess I should have googled it. Ha
It’s either because you’re slightly blind, are oblivious to quality, or have an extremely poor display. Either way, the washed out look is extremely noticeable and bothersome and not what one would expect from turning on hdr.
Sorry i dont have your high quality taste my friend i will try not to enjoy games without your approvalbnext time ... Its a sony x930D was the best4k led at the time ... but what do i know ...
I have that same TV and the HDR indeed sucks. Go to Rodhes or the Heartlands and notice how HDR looks better turned off. It is a real issue, and this game is colorful.
Gosh i never said the game looks absolutely wonderful and has the best hdr implementation .... though for me playing it, the hdr was a non issue and It didn't hamper my enjoyment ... i loved the game and enjoyed and i felt the color gamut was toned down on purpose and it fit the mood of the game for me... if you don't want to play it and wait for a patch that was never promised it's up to you.
HDR is meant to enhance the base color gamut not the opposite, which is the case here. They didn’t purposely make RDR2 HDR to wash out the colors. That makes no sense
I love the game too but the HDR is not well implemented here. Stop being so defensive
You can turn off HDR and it looks way better I have my issues with the game it's far from perfect but stop acting like you can't enjoy the game because of bad HDR implementation.
Well in cases the HDR blur issue is ps4 pro specific, i had 0 blur issues on xbox one x ... though i generally never had issues on ps4 pro with other games. @AspiringProGenji i am not being defensive whatsoever all i said is that this was not an issue for me ... i am entitled not to care about something you or TheGamingArt my care about, I merely said i played and enjoyed the game ... I didn't know about the HDR implementation until i watched the digital foundry HDR analysis video ... and i was not about to intentionally stop enjoying a game i was enjoying thus far just case digital foundry said so. to each his own and my take on it... is I already enjoyed the game :)
zahdab " the hdr was a non issue and It didn't hamper my enjoyment ... i loved the game and enjoyed and i felt the color gamut was toned down on purpose and it fit the mood of the game for me.."
Agree 100% . I actually turned my HDR Off and the game looks beautiful ...
HDR isn't really about making a game more colorful. It's about making the pixels more dynamic with what color they do have. There are literally hundreds of thousands of colors within a single shade of color. HDR allows a closer approximation of a pixel to display what it actually appears as in it's original form, along with more information to allow those colors to stand out through better through more contract between pixels.
Again didnt say hdr makes a game more colorful... i said the game operates within a limited color range i dont see the lack of a proper hdr implementation having a drastic effect on it ... or having a meaningful increase in enjoyment levels
First thing in my mind too. I have stopped playing RDR2 in Ch 3 in anticipation of the HDR fixing patch. I did not spend all that hard earned money on my LG OLED HDR for nothing.
The game was created using a 8 bit map. For proper HDR you need a 10 bit color map. This game will never have good HDR. Just turn it off in the settings and enjoy the game thats what I and pretty much everyone did lol.
Same here, stopped playing because I'm waiting for the HDR patch. I should stop buying games at launch, but I always fail when the hype machine works its magic!
It has absolutely no bearing on my enjoyment of the game. Its simple really, its a game that will show what my tv can do if only they fixed HDR and I want to experience it in its full visual potential. Plus Christmas holiday is coming and I will have the time needed to really get into it they way I couldn't so. far. Its a win win for me.
I can see what people’s problem is with the HDR setting with RDR2 but I still much prefer it activated than not. The game looks awful with its cartoonish colour palette. The HDR setting has absolutely no HDR quality about it but it does use a far more natural colour.
Calms it down massively, but then we live in the ADHD generation so I can see people are going to have a problem with it.
I playing on a PS4 slim and a computer monitor. I looks better than almost every game I have played. I am trying to think about one that looks better. Maybe HZD? Maybe...
HDR??
