As a still frame this isn't a bad comparison, brighter lighting with better skin tones and color of the jacket plus the hair looks more brown than dark.
I can't tell the difference, yeah different lighting and shiner eyes if you zoom in. Amazing.

All I want is for the Sector 7 wreckage to look the same from the ground as it does from above.

Like from above the whole thing is massive, buckled and on fire, from below it's vanished and the slums are in tact other than little piles of wreckage.

The FPS is the game changer. 60 compared to 30 looks so much better, even if every other graphical thing is identical. I hate playing my ps4 nowadays cause I’m so used to 60+ on my pc.

I'm dangerously close to picking up a ps5 just for this title. Really annoying having to wait for PC to play this.

F2P but gacha for special characters/costumes/equipment is Ever Crisis' business model

Maybe I'm missing something but I started playing this at the weekend and the first boss seemed to take a fucking eternity to beat. Literally blew through all my Potions and PDs to beat it.

There's probably more to it than I managed to catch on the fight text but surely that shouldn't be the case.

Yeah. I was kind of ok with the action system in the demo then when the boss took like 15 minutes of doing the same shit over and over, getting interrupted, etc I was really turned off.

I eventually just switched back to turn based combat.

i assume you are talking about the scorpion, and its cuz you don't have the assess ability yet. the boss is weak to lightning and goes down real fast with barret's spells. also you want to down it by hitting the weak points (field generator) so it stays down most of the time. you obviously can just brute force your way thru the fight but that'll take the 5-15 mins you saw, if you correctly use abilities and stuff its a really short fight.

same thing happened to me though on first play through, not until like 50% thru the game did i realize switching characters was a good idea, i played for the longest time as just cloud and let everyone else run AI. Switching characters constantly is integral to smooth combat.

that sorta thing happens more and more especially at the hardest difficulty levels, there is a huge difference between correctly using synergies, elements/powers, etc against weaknesses and specific target points.

the arena fights are prime examples, a regular fight can be 5-10 mins but if you prep and perform flawlessly it can be literally seconds.

Maddeningly I switched to Barret but never once thought to see if he had Lightning as a spell. Ah well, appreciate the heads up and I'll definitely play it through again.

So if I buy FF7R in the playstation store then it will automatically upgrade to the PS5 version once that becomes available or do I need to wait until June and buy the Intergrade package?

If you buy it yes.

Currently it’s free on PlayStation plus. If you get it that way it won’t upgrade later, you’d have to pay full price to get the ps5 version. I’m pretty sure that’s how they all work.

Borderlands 3 gave a free PS5 upgrade but to be fair I can't tell a difference. Equally, I don't expect Cyberpunk to charge for it.

Shouldn't be surprised at Square being money-grubbing fuckers though. They'll milk the ever-living hell out of this franchise before releasing the final installment.
