Well look at that, huh? Last of Us, God of War, Horizon, and Spider-Man were beat out. Maybe if you’re all concerned about money, perhaps there is something to this whole “sex sells” concept.

Kratos in a speedo 🤔. Lol

Honestly there weren't enough armour sets showing off his muscular bod.

OhReginald1d 17h ago

All those games you mentioned didn't release in the 100+ blocked regions. Maybe that something to do with it than...sex sells...hmm

CrimsonWing691d 16h ago

What’s the percentage of sales those 100+ blocked regions contribute… hmmm?

got_dam1d 11h ago

Sex does sell. It's a fact. No matter how much the media and a vocal minority try to convince people that we should be ashamed of our natural urges.

Vits1d 3h ago

Yeah, they actually did. Sony only started blocking games after the whole Helldivers 2 situation.

From what I’ve heard from friends who got it on PC, the gameplay felt fresh compared to Sony’s usual committee-approved stuff. Though, two female friends were a bit uncomfortable with some of the costumes, but they kept playing, so I’m guessing that the rest of the game being pretty solid was enough to ignore that part.

Sex sells with good gameplay 😂

gurp1d 23h ago

I played the game on PS5 when it came out, and I just started a new play through on PC
the PC just hits a little 'harder'

Fishy Fingers1d 21h ago

Published by. Not a PS title.

tay87011d 15h ago

It's a playstation title, just like death stranding 2 and lost soul aside.

Vits1d 3h ago

How do you even define a "PlayStation title"?

This game wasn’t made by a PlayStation studio, Sony doesn’t own the IP, and it definitely wasn’t created by their “let’s make sure every simpleton can play it” committee like most of Sony’s usual stuff. They just published it, same to DS2 and same to Lost Soul Aside.

Another $2k PC vs $700 console comparison...

RaiderNation6h ago

Wow, it seems like a lot of people hate the truth, lol.

Babadook73h ago(Edited 3h ago)

You're right about that.

And at 1:52 I think the shadows actually look better on the console. It's got distance corrected softening.

Overall this isn't a big win for PC it's a little sharper on far more pricy hardware.

Stevonidas5h ago

More like a $900 PC vs $700 console. Sony ports arrive already optimized for low-end hardware.

Babadook73h ago

Nope. They are using a brand new rig with a 5090.

anast2h ago

$900 will get you Fortnite and a few CRPGs and maybe GTAV.

Shiore2u51m ago(Edited 40m ago)

@Babadook7 They used multiple configurations, but the 5060 Ti is the standout of the comparison. You don't need a 5090 to max this game.

"The PC version of Stellar Blade demonstrates outstanding optimization, delivering buttery-smooth performance even at max settings. Its implementation of multi-frame generation technology shines particularly bright on NVIDIA’s RTX 50 series – a GeForce RTX 5060 Ti can push frame rates beyond 150 FPS with all graphical bells and whistles enabled. This not only highlights the developers’ technical mastery but also showcases the game engine’s impressive scalability across PC hardware configurations."

And right in the video description:

"Thanks to this technology, we can run Stellar Blade at over 150fps with maximum settings on a 5060Ti."

thorstein2h ago

You just triggered a ton of people. The video shows such little difference. You just destroyed their worldview.

Obscure_Observer36m ago

It´s a $500 5060Ti vs $700 PS5 Pro console! All it takes is to read the damn video description on Youtube.

"It is one of the games that best use multi frame generation for the RTX 50 series. Thanks to this technology, we can run Stellar Blade at over 150fps with maximum settings on a 5060Ti."

You´ll never gonna admit that the PS5 Pro is nothing but a huge scam!

BlueDaBaDee24m ago(Edited 22m ago)

Moreover, if you're using a CPU released within the last decade such as the recommended i5-8400 you'd still be fine upgrading to a 5060ti, the bottleneck would be negligible to performance.

You don't need a 5090 to show improvements, even a 4070 can have better results, especially if you use reshade, come on PC people you need to use reshade in most PC games.😂
