"looks at footage of game"
Yeah I know they're devs, but this statement doesn't hold much when your game looks like that.

Not saying the S doesn't hold back things, because there have been other devs to say it, just odd to see these guys lean heavily into this whole console debate

Einhander1972853d ago

The game has pretty advanced lighting, shadows, particle effects and other post process, that's what is the most demanding.

RaidenBlack853d ago (Edited 853d ago )

Nah, the game's not pushing any where that level of tech ... instead, its either these devs aren't able to optimise the game properly or they just want to gain some attention via these negative comments...

Eonjay853d ago

This reminds me of another article about Spiderman Remastered using the full power of the PS5. That statement doesn't technically mean anything. Its not about maxing out your system. Its about optimizing to your system. This is applicable across all systems.

So they make a game ps and Xbox and come out talking about the series s issues, even though ms studios have had issues themselves. But it's the dev talking sh trying to be in the debate. Why can't it just be the dev bringing it up because they are truly having issues. Devs wanna make money on both consoles and more then likely don't care about a fking console war lol. Get over it. The series s holds sh back

darthv72853d ago (Edited 853d ago )

the devs talked so much trash about xbox and praised the PS5 SSD to high heaven and yet this thing is reviewing worse than Redfall.

CobraKai853d ago

A family business of 4 developers/brothers vs Arkane Studios/ Bethesda. It may not be doing that well review wise, but they made a better looking game.

Jin_Sakai853d ago

Wasn’t this game by 4 people sharing a computer? That explains a lot.

rippermcrip853d ago

Whether you are a good dev or a bad dev, weaker hardware makes things harder.

Nitrowolf2853d ago

Point being, when you launch a game with a meta that is down there with Gollum and and King Kong, with most reviews agreeing this looks like it's three generation old, their level of expertise is hardly one most will consider credible, because at that point you really have to question what problem they had for a game of this type.

itsmebryan853d ago

@Raidenblack

I agree . Their game is not getting great reviews and this is a way for them to get some attention.

S2Killinit852d ago

@Nitro
Sometimes its not necessarily about how demanding the game is, but how demanding the job is for the developer. xbox making things more difficult also applies to indie developers.

Bruh this game was also coming to the ps4 lol when he was saying xbox series s is holding the game back.

Only when people point how is series s holding your game back and not the ps4, is when he decide to drop the ps4 🤣.

Einhander1972853d ago

The PS4 version was canceled because it was holding development back, so I'm not sure what your point is unless you're saying the xbox s version should also be dropped.

Sonyslave3853d ago

My point was he was sh!t talking about the xbox series s and x ssd not the ps4 in the begining.

About how both xbox ssd is holding his game back and it only when people point how xbox S/X holding back your game not the ps4.

Then all the sudden he annonunce the ps4 have been drop.😂

mkis007853d ago

so your saying we should be comparing the ps4 to the series s? the fact is the s is supposedly a next gen console vs the ps4. The ps4 holding a game back that cant work on the s should be obvious.

Gamingsince1981853d ago

I think we really should be comparing the series s to the ps4 , they are pretty close to each other power wise.

S2Killinit852d ago

Does it make a deference? The xbox series s is supposed to be a current gen. Imagine you are trying to develop a game and consider those sales crucial but then find out the xbox is more like last gen… AND MS is on your neck about parity because most of their sold xbox’s are actually series S.

I think gamers are smart enough to know that games have to be nerfed to run on the Series S. I still say Sony made the right choice same machine same power except one is missing a disc drive. The Series S to me I classify it as a machine for kids who barely game just something to casually game on. Or for the casual gamer who just needs a machine to play a game on. As for me I am a collector I won't touch or own the white brick I would rather spend the extra cash and get the Series X. Least there I don't have to worry about the games being nerfed down plus I get a 4K blu ray player. Where I live the Series S is cluttered in stores, pops up on Facebook Market Place for sale, highly traded in at Gamestop, and pawnshops can't get rid of the white brick. To me yes the Series S does hold back games you get a nerfed down version of the game. If I wanted a nerfed version of the game I would grab it for my XB1 or PS4.

Quantum Error Review // WellPlayed

Zach from WellPlayed writes "Quantum Error is a flawed, frustrating and unfun slog that collapses under the weight of its lofty ambitions to blend multiple genres and mechanics on a limited budget and developing skillset."

Quantum Error PlayStation 5 Review | NoobFeed

NoobFeed Editor Simon Estey writes - Quantum Error is too ambitious to the detriment of basic features. It wants to be a survival horror game, a first-person shooter, and a sci-fi thriller film but doesn't pull off any of these particularly well. Its most interesting aspect is its firefighting, but this is also what it spends the least of its playtime focused on. It is incredibly impressive that it was built by such a small team, but that doesn't make it any more enjoyable to play.

Applaud the QE team for the effort...but their core loop is crap. Need playtesting gents!

Godmars290851d ago

So, one point for effort, minus a million for stirring up fanboy BS.

lelo2play851d ago (Edited 851d ago )

By constantly bashing the Xbox, these developers turned their shitty game in a success on the PS5. PR department deserve a raise...

babadivad850d ago

Is this the piece of shite game they claimed the S couldn't run?

It was these guys that were constantly bashing the Xbox to gain favoritism from Sony fanboys... and it paid off.
Sony fanboys fell for their PR BS. This turd is a success on the PS5. LOL
