its out today

nobody play?

haha

the frame rate at times abit low even though settings focus on frame rate hmm

I knew the game doesn't quite stay at 60fps, but it feels jarring when seeing it. Looks like the game has uneven frame pacing. I haven't tried the graphics mode yet to compare, but some publications or online comments say the graphics mode feels less stuttery and sticks to 30fps better. Going to restart the game in graphics mode and try it myself.

u can change the mode on the fly lol no need restart the games also if u have VRR monitor or tv the lag is lesser.

I meant I am going to start over the game but in Graphics mode this time. To compare the opening sequence in Graphics mode this time. I do in fact use a VRR capable display, but it doesn't help that much to be honest.

Digital Foundry mentioned that when engage into battle, the fps boost to 60fps (performance mode) but the resolution de-scale to 720p

Deciding to go for fidelity mode when receive my game but the motion blur cannot off is bad..

What. 720p? Ouch that's not good. You'd think 720p is something we already left behind with the PS4.

You all playing in English or Japanese voiceover?
I tried both in demo and continued with English but keep wondering how's it through in Japanese VO

I started with Japanese dub but will be changing to English. The game was developed with the English cast apparently. When using Japanese voices the game becomes like alih bahasa show, with no mouth syncing. It's too distracting for me. Even the developers had to do some spin and tell Japanese gamers to play with English dub on second playthrough to apprecuate its realism.

I think English Dub better as they are going for the those LoTR or GoT vibe... all those ppl speak those British accent more matching.

Personally for me, the Japanese dub doesn't match the mood for the scene. Not saying that I like the English voice acting more, but the Japanese dub clashes with the more realistic and mature tone. The sub shows cursing for example, but the Japanese line is considered tame compared to what the characters are supposed to be saying.

A certain very well known publication says "30fps 99% of the time" in Graphics mode, that is complete bullshit. Every big Eikonic vs Eikonic battle will have the framerate drop into the low 20s, you don't believe me you can see with your own eyes in the first Eikonic vs Eikonic fight between Phoenix and Ifrit.
VRR doesn't mean anything.

In order for VRR to work on this game, it needs to be running above 48fps. The PS5 does not support LFC natively and the game does not have hardcoded LFC either. That means Graphics mode at 30fps gets no VRR and because the Performance mode jumps from 20fps to 60fps, VRR will be constantly engaging and disengaging.

Yeah that first fight already felt weird in the Frame Rate mode. I haven't tried it in the Graphics mode, but I believe you. I don't have a problem calling out these kinds of performance issues, no matter the platform. Only fanboys go out of the way to defend their platform of choice.

That VRR thing is so true. For VRR to kick in, it needs to be within the framerate target. Just like on PC, if you have a Gsync / Freesync capable monitor, but your GPU can't even hit anywhere near the framerate target, you are not going to see any benefits.

Holy shit it's actually a thing. PS5 consoles are overheating and crashing when playing FF16 in graphics mode. So it's either jerky / blurry graphics, or overheating and crashing? Hmmm tough choice.

As someone who is actively posting in Xbox , you sure have a crap load of things to say to a PS5 exclusive as much as the game isn't perfect , far from it.
Mine isn't overheating or crashing. Haven't crash once in 70 hours of playing . 
Also , maybe read the articles you link . The same ppl are saying same thing happening to octopath II , that game shouldn't be overheating a PS5 so maybe the issue isn't specific to just FF16 to begin with .

I have a PS5 and FF16, this would be something to watch out for. And it's not just Pushsquare that wrote about it, some other publications and Youtube channels covered it too. We don't know for sure how widespread is the issue, or if there are any common themes between affected users.
