Phenomenal unoptimization

already came out? huh, maybe i'll get it on a steep sale one day. liked journey but never finished abzu, should do that first

>>718766291 (OP)
Is the PS5 version playable? I don't trust my PC with new games anymore.

I'm not into skateboarding/sledding/surfing games or whatever. Is it any good exploration wise or is it just surfing through pretty, linear environments?

Yeah it's good. The dolphin moving FAST and the game keeps up.

>1 hour long
not paying for this shit

>>718766363
When your game runs worse than Xcom2, you have a problem.
Cool game, shit implementation.

>PC players STILL crying about games stuttering

When are you gaylords going to realise that the operating system is stealing resources from the GPU drivers

>>718766508
It’s kind of like Spyro the dragon.

Apparently the PC version is fucked right now, it runs well on a PS5 though i have a pro.

>>718768030
Yes. We need hot females not woke indie garbage.

>>718768162
Yeah you need to go, to the fucking Discord.

You and that guy that’s posts the RE8 girl can hang out.

>>718768162
They're putting water in the desert to make the frickin wraiths gay!

I have no fucking clue how this isn't made by the Journey devs, its so similar in style I thought it was a direct sequel, though its better in pretty much every way than that game except the god awful optimization.

>>718768405
Abzu devs, same shit.

>nearly a carbon copy of Journey but far worse pacing and with shitty, low effort fish particles from abzu dumped everywhere
these people are one hit wonders, they struck gold with journey when the indie space was still fresh and have been coasting off of that ever since. I'm in the snow area and overwhelmingly felt like I was waiting for the game to be fun for nearly the entire time up until that point and so I dropped it

>>718766291 (OP)
I feel like this exact same game has been done 500 times in the last 15 years

>>718766291 (OP)
how do you make an unreal engine 5 game with no dlss
it would've ran like dogshit with dlss as well, but at 60 fps at least

>>718768405
It is made by the journey/flower devs, they just have a different name. You know all those indie ripoffs that are so blatant but they get a pass because it's made by the "original devs"
>Mighty no 9
>Bloodstained
>That eternal darkness ripoff on Kickstarter that got canceled
This is the exact same shit. Originality is dead.

Here's a few tips if you're about to start the game:

- Get out of your way to collect the toblerones because the upgrades are costly and important for style. You won't unlock every ability on the first playthrough.
- The default control scheme is bad. Switch to Flow in the options and then customize it a bit. There is no purpose to the "trick mode" button it's a stupid button.
- Play around in the first area for a while just to get used to the rhythm of the game. It's not actually uncomfortable to manipulate once you're used to it.
- Go fast. Play it with your girlfriend. If noGF then at least you can be a gamer.

Journey but green

>>718768405 Well that fucking explains something.
>>718768504 Abzu is more elegant in design than SS.

You truly did not play the game. They are not the same.

My best friend died while watching a 240p youtube video of Shakira.

Best way to go

>>718766291 (OP)
Started playing this gem but I was a bit bummed when I went to the second area and realized it was impossible to go back in the first(still had tricks to unlock), that's pretty stupid especially when the pathless was completely open. So I haven't touched the game since

If this thread's an ad then my post might reach the developers.
You made a grave mistake: the short cutscenes that happen when i activate a switch in a level.
They are not good for this game. Their purpose is to show me what it is that i've activated but in this game, i go very fast so these interruptions are frequent and i cannot play for 5minutes without my speed being broken, the whiplash of this stop-and-go feels terrible.
I should be able to speed past the various switches and activate them without stopping. Only the important water droplets should retain their cutscenes.
If this cannot be done because they are meant to hide some loading in the level then it would have been crucial to make it so that they don't.

In Journey this puzzle-like convention did not pose a problem because the pace of the game was much slower. I don't think Abzu even had any of those. The Pathless was a puzzle heavy game so they made sense. In Sword of the Sea they hurt the game.

This is the only truly large flaw i want to complain about but on a first playthrough it will not be a problem, a player won't care. Being able to skip cutscenes would be an easy solution but adding a toggle in the options so that they don't play at all in new game plus would be a very elegant solution.

The vendors all share inventory so it doesn't matter which one you visit.

>default control scheme is bad
Yeah the controls were so good in the pathless I don't know how they managed to fuck this up.

>>718768405
It's a sequel but not of Journey.

>>718773465
They knew trick mode was dumb because it's the only button that doesn't display a warning if you remove it.

Is this game woke?

>>718776354
Yeah that sword is definitely a phallic reference (it means penis) and we ride it to bring "wetness" in the female world who is dry like a desert. I feel much more homosexual from playing this game. Beware.

>>718777104
How is that woke? That sounds fucking kino

>>718766291 (OP)
is the protagonist male or female?
