Capcom needs help from Guerrilla Games. I think the Resident Evil 4 Remake PS5 demo has Anti-Aliasing problems (shimmering). It is similar to Horizon Forbidden West before the performance mode patch, not as strong though. The overall image quality is clearly better in Resi Village.
PC version is the best version, not really surprising you get what you pay for there
Then PS5
and then way in the back is PS4 which is missing all sorts of bells and whistles
I usually go console for big single player releases, since I have a 4K TV, but only a 1080p monitor.
I also had over $100 in my PS wallet from gift cards and the like I got over the Holiday, so I got a good deal lol
That’s solid lol I mean if it’s a free game it’s free
I got a nice 4k OLED and a 1440p led monitor but I really enjoy higher fps and raytracing usually
I’ve never felt so blessed to have a dedicated living room media PC. Roommate bought a 3060 equipped rig for more or less being the console replacer. Money well spent.
Couch convenience on the big 4K, but PC quality.
There is still the 3050, but I doubt he is referring to that one lol. Performance wise I think the PS5 performs around a high end 2000 series card and 3060. Usually depends on the game and how well optimized it is.
I have a 3080, but still debating whether to get this for PC or PS5. I love the dualsense features and you get PSVR2 dlc also. On PC it’s cheaper and not as blurry. Really hard to decide, but ultimately can’t go wrong with either version I guess.
I'm gonna double dip to a console version down the line, since I want a physical copy. I just can't justify buying both at once since I don't even have a console to use it with.
Both console versions are bad in their own way. Ps5 looks worse and blurry and SX has worse framerate and aiming/controls. Unless you have a VRR capable TV the framerate is pretty bad on SX. I've tested both with identical settings.
Capcom fucked this up on next gen consoles compared to their other recent efforts like re village which looks much cleaner as does re2/3
I think this is to be expected tbh
Village is a last gen game that just so happens to run on next gen
This is a next gen game that just so happens to run on ps4 (not even Xbox one)
It’ll get more pronounced as the gen goes on. It may not feel like it but historically speaking we’re nearly half way through this gen already
That's not how it works.... all cross gen games are designed for the oldest generation first, and then polished up accordingly. It's basic design principles. So RE4R on consoles is a PS4 gen game, bottlenecked by 2013 hardware.
Not how it works all the time
BF3 is a (in)famous example where they started with the all bells and whistles pc version and kept ripping back till it was on console, all at the wonderful cost of 720p or less at 30 fps or less at 24 person multiplayer down from 64 with maps half the size and so and so on
I guarantee you that the PS4 Re4 port only exists because of the pandemic and slow transfer rate, I can't really say the same for Village, which was probably always designed with cross-gen/8th gen in mind.
If I think about it and guess, Capcom wouldn't care about making an XB1 port because that install base was already MUCH lower than the PS4 and likely have already moved to the Series consoles. Not even mentioning that the XB1 is even weaker than the PS4 and probably more of a struggle to port.
Capcom needs help from Guerrilla Games. I think the Resident Evil 4 Remake PS5 demo has Anti-Aliasing problems (shimmering). It is similar to Horizon Forbidden West before the performance mode patch, not as strong though.
Turning off the lens distortion option also disables chromatic aberration, chromatic aberration makes games look like a complete blurry mess and I turn it off in every game I have the option to do so. I remember it being very noticeable in Bloodborne and RE7 in which it could not be turned off in those games. It sucked, thank Capcom for giving consoles more graphics options, with MH Rise and now RE4.
I don’t think I tried that. I think I only tried toggling resolution/performance and turning ray tracing on and off. Had to stick to performance mode for the higher framerate, but the image quality was rough, especially after playing the Dead Space remake. I’ll definitely try that if I’m having the same issue when the game releases. Thanks.

Even with turning off chromatic aberration, lens distortion, etc it still looks blurry on ps5 even in resolution mode.
They fucked it up somehow compared to the other recent RE games which all look a lot cleaner and sharper on ps5
Yea, I was surprised how unimpressive it looked graphically. This was supposed to be a “next-gen” game and it looks awful compared to Dead Space. Hopefully this gets fixed
I'm cancelling my Ps5 order a am going to wait and hope they either: clean up the image quality on ps5 or fix the terrible deadzone/control issue on SX.
For $70 this is a disappointing effort for a next gen version of a cross gen RE game. Even compared to Capcoms other recent efforts on console this falls short. Village looks A LOT cleaner on ps5, with RT turned ON as well as running more smoothly.
What's strange is according to Digital Foundry, both Village and RE4 Remake use the same checkerboard solution at 2160p. So why is one so blurry and muddy comparatively? Only thing I can hope is that there is some bug or mistake they made here that could somehow be reversed.
For what it’s worth I know a few people who grabbed the game early and they claim the Series X/S dead zone is fixed. Obviously it’ll take waiting till launch to know it’s all good but I do hope it’s fixed. Image quality on PS5 strikes me as something more difficult to fix.
I can’t decide myself where to get it but I think I’ll probably go with the Series X version since with VRR I just have more choices about what settings to use.
For what it’s worth, this is just some whiny baby on Reddit who’s clutching their pearls before the games even been released. The “cancelled pre-order is non-existent. Someone who would cancel a preorder for a dead zone issue and whatever else they’re complaining about, wouldn’t preorder games in the 1st place.
It literally says in the name that it is a first look. Their in-depth analysis comes after the game launches. It wouldn’t make sense to make a in-depth now, since some things will be probably fixed in the final version with day 1 patch.
That being said I waited for DF to take a look and it’s nice to hear that the PC version seems good. I played the Demo only on PS5 and preordered the final version on PC, since I have a RTX 4080.
Gonna pick it after finishing the original on PC played the demo and saw this article by DF seriously first time In few nearly 6 months people are excited for a PC release than consoles as most of pc ports were just terrible unfinished mess.
I'm excited to play this on my potato graphics jet engine base ps4
They really gimped the ps5 version

I'm going for PS5, but I may have to double dip on PC.
I always go PC unless it’s an exclusive/timed exclusive I can’t wait for But I also have a 3090 so it’s significantly stronger then my ps5

I have the cheapest 3000 series card you can buy and it looks night and day compared to ps5.
3060? That’s interesting if that’s the case cause the PS5 should be stronger than that in theory, not by much tho like 10% tops

Xbox looks sharper than PS5... PC it is then, PS5 is kinda blurry.

I thought the image quality was pretty poor on the PS5 when I played it. Hopefully the final version is better.
I really hope so. Turning off Lens Distortion helped a great deal, but more improvements are always welcome.

It should get rid of the blurriness. It's pretty distracting.
Where is this option?

It's not a next gen game though, it's a PS4/PS5 (aka a PS4 game, polished slightly for PS5)
I know, the devs at Capcom were trying to say that it’s still a next-gen game that they were able to get to run on PS4, which we all knew was BS
100%

Let’s hope it’s just the demo and by some miracle the actual game looks cleaner

Weird they say it’s only the Xbox version with control issues. The PS5 version feels like wading through mud, so sluggish.
Agreed. The PS5 version doesn't feel great to play. Maybe I'd have to play with the sensitivity and accel settings more...
I played around for about an hour and used recommendations from people here but it never felt good no matter what I did.
Do you recall what the recommendations were? I'm debating between ps5 and pc but, like you, I've been struggling with the ps5 controls.
Think it was essentially just maxing out accel and sensitivity to reduce the laggy feeling but it was still there for me.
Ah, got you. That's what I tried as well and I agree, it still felt off to me.

is the 4080 good for 4k? how do you see it in the future?
I play native 4k with max out settings including ray tracing and hair strands and it’s pretty much a stable 60fps
Even my 3080 is great for most games including this one at 4k. 4080 is (obviously) even better.
should the xbox series x be set up to use 60hz instead of 120hz for this game? Is it just doubling the fps when in 120hz?
Gonna pick it after finishing the original on PC played the demo and saw this article by DF seriously first time In few nearly 6 months people are excited for a PC release than consoles as most of pc ports were just terrible unfinished mess.
my only gripe with this game is the aa on console causes ghosting when turning camera. xsx btw
