I don't think they're "retarded", I think there was an element of laziness though. They probably did not want to spend the time testing myriad combinations of resolutions, drivers, GPUs, CPUs and AA/AF settings before release. Still, many developers don't do this, but they do leave at least some setting in the config.ini for users to mess around with if they so please (without official developer support).

Of course, there could be an issue or two that people haven't encountered yet that caused FROM to lock the resolution in the first place; but so far, no such issue has become apparent (some people can't see some messages, but it's already being fixed).

And it seems the framerate is capped at 30FPS because the animations are key-framed at 30, but of course they can just use an internal timer and interpolate the frames for higher rates (newbie modders did this years ago with the Quake engine with relative ease), but they didn't do that either. It's sad, surely, and it may reflect poorly on FROM in the eyes of gamers, but hopefully they'll do better next time around (with more time and synchronized development with consoles).

That said, the game is selling VERY well, besting even CS:GO on Steam, even if a good portion of that is thanks to the efforts of Durante. And it actually looks pretty damn good in 1080p, with surprisingly detailed textures, that would never have been apparent in the 1024x720 framebuffer (look up some screens, it's actually a night and day difference).

They should of hired pc devs. Japanese devs seem to only know consoles. Hence 95% of Japanese rps's are only on console.

Capcom does ok though.

Souls I didn’t thankfully but Sekiro I did.

mh ur right actually.

dark souls plays around with horror themes without being a straight "horror" game.

bloodborn definitely starts out as that haha.
