      To be fair the Part 1 port is fairly good now but the release was quite janky… But I haven’t bought it until it went on sale anyways so…

      What was wrong with the 1st port? I ended up playing after finishing the TV series, and didn’t run into any bugs. I think I can recall having to restart maybe once cause a scene didn’t start. Beyond that, it was one of the first games I almost played twice just for NG+

        On release it was poorly optimized

        Even high end hardware had struggles, the worst part of 3d games is the cache though. That’s why some games put up a loading screen for it then load every asset behind that loading screen

        A godot dev even recorded (inputs) a full playthrough of his then played it behind a loading screen at 10x speed

      wait a year before playing it and it will probably be good

    I bet it will come with a free copy of Denuvo. Will be an incredible deal: 2 softwares for the price of 1 software. Can’t beat that.

        I feel like it’s pretty straightforward. Sony releases far more ports and remakes than newly developed original games.

            They delay the PC release in hopes that you’ll buy a PS5 to play the sequel. I doubt it’s a very effective strategy, though.

              NGL they almost had me with Spider-Man 2.

              But I watched a playthrough on YouTube cause I couldn’t wait. Still gonna (maybe, with all this PSN bullshit) play through it when it comes out on PC though.

          I mean, I don’t think they’re any slower to release new games than anyone else. I also don’t think the next Spider-Man or whatever is going to come out any slower because of ports either, since I think a different studio handles most of the porting work, I don’t know about remasters, though. Like this year, they’re releasing 5 new games, and they usually release at least 3 a year. Could they release more? Maybe, but games take longer to make than ever before.

            Wasn’t really intended as a comparison with any other developer either. They’re just a relevant example pertaining to a larger industry issue.

      True, but I also think it’s (double-edged sword) kind of a good thing that they’re finally bringing their exclusive titles to PC. Otherwise I wouldn’t have been able to play Spider-Man or God of War.
