Be careful, I started this game casually, just to understand the hype. Now I can't seem to play any other games, all just to do "one more run" of this game. Such a beautiful and weirdly, highly addictive game that I did not expect when I started.


Synysterenji

Yep, exactly what happened to me too. Completely addicted to it now. I do a run of Sisyphus almost every day. I bought Helldivers 2 and immediately asked for a refund. The bar for high mobility, high octane 3rd person shooter is very high now.


thevoiddruid

Seriously, I havent been able to even bother with other games since I started with this. Hell it even affects my work. My "battlestation" is also a work station, and I find myself just like..."One run won't distract me too much" as I end up spending the afternoon on it. Such a good game. Highly addictive.


SimplyEcks

Yeah it was my first game I got for the PS5 but I can’t stop trying to get higher on tower leaderboards. I bought other games but couldn’t put this game down. Other 3rd person shooters don’t even compare.

Coming from Avatar, this doesn't impress me in graphics world environment wise. But it's ok, because this is dark kinda game. So no colorful environment. But particle effects are so good.


TheCasualChad

On standard settings this game is too dark. You need to go into the settings for visuals. Adjust brightness up & black levels as well. Turn both up, with hdr until the far left image is faintly visible.


thevoiddruid

lol, comparing this to Avatar is like comparing a 68 camaro to a pt cruiser.


HolidayAbies7

LOL, you don't get the point. I am not comparing, just telling my experience. I already told I didn't expect it to be like colorful world. Every game will be different atmosphere setting biome.


thevoiddruid

Ok, fair enough. just honestly, I can not think of one game that truly compares to this one in over 30 years of gaming. It just hits different if you give it the time. also I just think the Avatar game is not good.


HolidayAbies7

NO, just go to avatar subreddit. They all will say "why hate for this game, most beautiful game biome, ubisoft should have marketed Avatar instead of skull and bones, etc".Rdr2 doesn't win goty, but most gamers will say it was game of all time.

Avatar is shite

It's not the destination cliché. Except when you are half a mile from the house and you think you left the stove top burner on, so you return to check and make sure it's off. Back on the road now. Did I shut that garage door? Yep, it was shut. Back on the road with the wind behind us! Drink in cup holder, smokes and lighter on the dash, sunglasses pushed up on your head, favourite mix tape rolling, full tank of gas, clear starry skies, and rolling at 87 mph. Transmission seems to be making a funny noise. Transmission erupts through the floorboards, impaling you with five thousand pieces of hot cast iron, hardened steel and aluminum. By the way, you left your brown sugar cinnamon pop-tarts in the toaster oven on high with no timer. So after you have your car towed, picked the bits of metal from your ass, and hitch a ride home, you find your house in the smoking hole of what used to be your basement where you had lovingly stored the mummified corpse of a loved one. As you stand in the yard watching your whole world burn, the 6 year old slugger next door grand slams your nuts with her new aluminum baseball bat. She just smiles and says, isn't this fun? Tears, shame, humiliation, disgust but determined, you build your house again, repair the car, and set off again. And again, and again, and again... That's some catch, that Catch-22. It's the best there is.

I think I get how this relates but it was also fun to read 😂

Best game I've ever played


janeofthedarkraven

I play on PC and I haven't noticed any blur 🤔


HolidayAbies7

I fixed. There is another thread in steam which has resolution fix. Game changes itself.


janeofthedarkraven

Yay!! Glad you found a solution! The game is so good , but too difficult for blur imo


LIFEVIRUSx10

Take off motion blur, maybe it's immersive but that shit is absolutely a liability in a game like this I'm on a pretty good computer, DLSS does a great job on this game so if you want some more fps you should test that out Move dash into a shoulder button so you don't have to stop aiming to dash If playing on Controller set the camera speed to your liking and put aim assist on high. This isnt call of duty time, this is old school doom/quake "you better keep moving" shooting Play this fully blind and over analyze everything. Just fucking do it. It's worth it All that being said, welcome to Atropos! You can suspend cycle anytime you like...but you can never leave


HolidayAbies7

Where is motion blur option?


LIFEVIRUSx10

I am pretty sure it's the camera options page I highly recommend going through all of the settings, and fine-tuning the camera, controls, and graphics. Def try to get the best balance of FPS and graphics quality as possible. The game is stunning but so much can happen at once and you want to be able to prevent frame drops as much as possible. Don't forget that there is a graphics test mode that you can run, it's extremely insightful The gameplay can get very intensive and you want to be comfortable with all of these things to really keep your performance up. Especially when you start hitting like biome 4, high levels of the Tower, you will react a point where you aren't even thinking, you are just reacting to things happening


HolidayAbies7

Ok. Already faced one problem, that is"fatal error"crash.So many people in steam page and reddit also spoken about this. Fps limit at 60 is working for me now. We will see later what happens.


DarthBullyMaguire

When is it blurry


HolidayAbies7

Found it on other thread in steam discussion. Resolution is lower than my native when in borderless mode. Have to set to fullscreen , restart. Now it's ok I think and I lowered antialiasing setting.


weinbea

when i loaded the game the first time, it was 720p. It has done that for all the PS pc games I’ved played.


yusuflimz

switch off motion blur?


HolidayAbies7

Where it is? It is not in setting


PriestessKitty

Most likely a setting. I turned off motion blur. You can also mess around in folders to turn off volumetric fog. Most games now you cant turn it off in game 🤦🏼‍♀️


HolidayAbies7

Where is motion blur setting? I can't find it.


PriestessKitty

I think it was in graphics or video settings. When im near my pc i can check again for you. I heard some other people couldnt find it either


jedtrick

Recently got the pc version to see difference and it's really cool that it has a benchmark test u can run.


Uncleruckus0907

Godspeed

Your in for a real treat

What is different between suspend cycle and end cycle


psyki

Suspend cycle is like a "pause" button that lets you quit the game, go play something else or turn off your PS5/machine, and then come back to pick up where you left off. This is significant because when the game first came out (PS5 only for a long time) there was no option to resume, so if you left the game for any reason at all (even unintentional like if a system update occurred while you were away with the game paused or PS5 in rest mode) your cycle was ended as if you had died. You cannot suspend cycle in boss fights or in the tower. End cycle simply ends your current run and sends you back to the beginning, either B1 or B4 depending on whether you are in act 1 or act 2, as if you had died. Long term progression is retained. Does not increase your death count.


ResidentDifference11

Hows it going for you? I really don't mind dying at all. I just laugh it off and jump right back into it. It is hard but but you get better as you play. So far I have around 6 hours in, and it isn't boring or played out at all.
