Alongside open-world and linear exploration, Stellar Blade brings a dash of Stardew Valley and Animal Crossing to the PS5 exclusive with fishing.
Someone at Shift Up screwed up and accidentally released the Stellar Blade update intended for June 11 available temporarily.
Meet Eve and Tachy — this motion comic launches you into the heart-pounding world of Stellar Blade.
CG writes: The Stellar Blade PC demo dropped yesterday and here are two gameplay videos running at max settings in 4K using an RTX 4090. The gameplay feels polished but somewhat dated in our opinion (as are the UE4 visuals). The game seems like a cross between Bayonetta and a souls-like without the punishing deaths. However (and PS5 fans can attest), the fan-service is “refreshing” in a sea of Western developed titles shying away from sexualized lead characters. Bravo SHIFT-Up, take our money when the game releases June 11th.
They do look dated, though...
It's 4k, but everything looks like it's from last generation hardware. The problem isn't that this is dated, it's that we don't call it out for being dated in other major games.
In some ways I disagree about dated, as the modelling for objects, (not saying Eve herself), is done better than the highest end graphical games. I'm talking about examples like chairs and bottles and shops, etc. The aspect proportions in this game are way more accurate than any other game I've played.
@Christopher they absolutely are. Give me another game accurately size beer and wine bottles.
"Dated visuals? What in the hell?"
It´s powered by eleven years old tech. The rest self explanatory.
@Redgrave
"I suppose you'd be the one true expert on things powered by old tech, huh"
Yes
old tech doesn't matter, some older games look better than games made today. Examples, COD Advance Warfare, InFamous Second Son.
@yeastori
I`m gonna make it easier for you to understand.
By comparison, Clair Obscur, which is a *cheaper* ($50) AA UE5 powered game, will absolutely destroy some AAA UE4 powered games like Stellar Blade, Redfall or Lost Soul Aside ($60).
It is what it is.
The open world areas are alright and fairly intricate in their design. There are not that many athmospherical effects nor deptjh of field or other prost processing effects, however the game is fun. Imagine Devil May Cry in space with a decent upgrade system for moves and weapons. Some fights are a bit frustrating and need to be won following a certain strategy. Characters are alright, feel a bit stiff at times. The game is definitivellty worth a look. Played on PS5 basic and quite enjoyed it.
how are they dated, I played it on PS5, and it looks great, some of the textures are blurry but only close up
the character models are very good
FromSoftware games have dated graphics, but why do they get such high scores, they all look last gen and many several gens old
This website typically reviews P games or lewd gachas/mods. This particular review has to be a move made to garner traffic by speaking negatively about Stellar Blade while not being completely off brand from the usual fare.
I love the visuals and I think they look absolutely great. Games don't need GPU breaking lighting models in order to be fun.
Did you know Madden and Animal crossing have more in common than you thought? You can run in both games!
Outsourcing game studio makes game totally directed at the m'ladies that play animal crossing that is about as engaging as a iPhone game. Fitting and hilarous. Honestly, why Sony keeps supporting these creeps is beyond me. Who are they holding for rasom?
Yeah that was my first thought when I saw the trailer…..
