Dude what do you want Sony to do here, Act all Yakuza and walk into From offices with tommy guns and metal bats? And you talk about steamdeck as if the games run smooth 30/60 fps on it, Valve at most steps in to help with the proton layer integration and that the games run on the steam deck not guarantee performance.

You can complain about 1st party games not hitting the performance benchmarks but expecting Sony to act like gangsters is ridiculous. Why not complain about fromsoftware being lazy and bombard their socials
So Sony isn't accountable to how game run on their own platform? Of course they are specially in this case, if they can convince a long time partner to optimize their game to PS5 then they are worse than I thought
He goes out of his way to be a contrarian for the sake of it, so pathetic
Wow, I go out of my way not to be a corporate bootlicker, to bad the same can't be said about everyone here. I'm pretty fair and consistence when it comes to my take, many people here willing to mock Xbox and PC when games perform poorly there but when it comes to PlayStation poor Sony never did anything wrong.

They aren't lol, since when has any platform holder held responsibility for 3rd party game performance when that 3rd party has no record of being able to produce technical excellence? It's not like Sony made a PS5 Series S, Fromsoft just doesn't produce good running software and never has, across any of their games. Is Sony supposed to go in and give Fromsoft training on how to write an engine? Why would they? Fromsoft isn't giving them any benefits.

Always so funny when someone on the internet tries to tell me i'm "mad" for simply doing what they are also doing which is typing out some words and hitting the post reply button 🤣 . I'd ask you to spot the irony but that maybe asking too much of you.

I don't care if you criticize a corporation I simply called out your completely absurd line of reasoning.

Think logically for once and not run wild with your angst

The game runs bad even in top PC hardware.

The framepace issue in From Software engine is mitigate whatever you increase the framerate but it will never gone.
Since Demon's Souls (PS3) is like that no matter console or PC.

Ok, good for you buddy, seems like you are pretty mad as well. Try getting over it.

Blue rats, green rats, they are all the same.

bro comes in a elden ring thread to do the same old whining and bitching, and then calls us rats as if it wasn't him that wanted to derail this completely unrelated thread into a platform war :ROFLMAO: he might be my fav poster atm

Bro has a phd in hating, specialization: fighting the invisible fanboys

I find it very difficult to care about any of that.
I played earth defense force 2017 on 360 at 7fps, I will play anything (nothing was stable 30fps on 360, nothing).
ps5 games have vrr, modes and are mostly 60fps.
Some drops in 50s and 40s are fine. I finished ER on ps5 before sony added vrr. it was fine.

People focus too much on performance and technical details.
Even Dragons Dogma 2 which ran LIKE SHIT on ps5, was fully playable and enjoyable to me. Then they added 30fps lock and it became even better.

Sony could fix a lot of it, having option to force 120hz output for 60fps locked games, so vrr window is higher

How is Sony accountable for Elden Rings poor performance? It's a third party game made by a third party developer and it runs bad on every platform.
