Remnant 2 Was Designed With Upscaling In Mind, Devs Admit

The upscaling technology is slowly becoming a must for AAA games to achieve the best performance.

GoodGuy09688d ago

That's the thing about upscaling ai, devs will rely on that rather than polishing and optimizing the game. Sad...

bababooiy688d ago

Exactly, and considering how early much of this tech is its very disappointing to hear this. On the one end we have them pushing high resolutions/detail and yet were constantly forced to rely on upscaling software that degrades the image quality.

gerbintosh688d ago

They are trying to save time and money. Little early in the tech cycle to solely rely on this but maybe in the future

FPS_D3TH688d ago

It’s only a must because developers are being lazy. Always knew DLSS would end up being abused like this. It may be getting better with the 4k series cards but the image quality is best as native.

Fishy Fingers688d ago (Edited 688d ago )

720p internal on the consoles sounds pretty shocking but reconstruction tech has been employed by pretty much every PC gamer (DLSS,FSR) and console developer for years - when you need a pixel counter to tell you the difference whats the issue, you dont want more FPS?

Being the "first" UE5 game im not overly surprised, its will take time to get the best out of the engine/hardware. People expect all the advancements that come with UE5 with no trade off day 1.

The lazy bastards....

jznrpg688d ago

The game is $49.99.
It looks like a really good game and they put a lot of love into it. This is a smaller developer using a new engine and although I know it’s popular to hate on devs for being lazy I think they did what they could with what they had to work with.
I would like every game to have polish of a Rockstar or Sony made game but that isn’t realistic. It’s easy for us to say give it more time but they don’t have endless funds. Even games that have massive backing from big companies like MS fail miserably like Redfall. This game looks nothing like a failure and although not perfect I think they did a good job.

Demon's Souls isn't Soulslike. It's the original Souls game. WTF? And Elden Ring?

Another Crab's Treasure simply is not.

All the journos claiming things are "Soulslike" simply don't know what that word means.

GeeEssEff123d ago

The term “Soulslike” has become ridiculously diluted. I have seen it used for games just because they are difficult.

Cacabunga123d ago

Reminds me of Doom like back in the days for every FPS game

blackblades123d ago (Edited 123d ago )

Yeah, souls, souls lite, souls like same goes for rogue.

anast122d ago

It's either AI or the writer doesn't know the subject matter.

robtion123d ago

I've played all of these bar the Crab one so not a very accurate title.

Goodguy01122d ago (Edited 122d ago )

Nioh 1+2 imo are the best souls clone. Love the melee combat and ki system, really hoping team ninja doesn't abandon the IP and continue with a new title, hell just give us your take on the western fantasy setting for a new nioh game.

robtion122d ago

Yes Nioh 2 in particular is great. Also Wo Long (which is basically Nioh 3).

qalpha122d ago

Should have included 'Lies of P'. Seriously fun game.

Nacho_Z122d ago

That's what I was going to say, great game. Best non From Soulslike I've played.
