In current world scenario with GPU prices being sold for the price of a small car, Xbox SX and PS5 are doing a great job.
I do not like Ubisoft.
Far cry 6 graphics aren't as better as Valhalla and Far cry 5
Another technical mess.
Ps5 looks good on every aspect
I love how you're one of the few pointing stuttering problems in games, that's the first step to make devs more careful since it's a very boring thing.
Not a single comment on the most intriguing technical aspect of the game: there is a goddammit croc wearing jackets all the time!
I love when a sniper wears a grass suit and sits in a cement watch tower. 😆
I see a bunch of Xbots in the comments bragging their plastic is better. This is why I don't get involved in the console wars it's such a pathetic way to spend time and energy. Have fun though
Man this guys thinks highly of PCs.
The amount of effort needed to make a video like this is just crazy

Yeah, thats sounds like a great idea, putting in Ray Tracing and cutting it down until it's barely noticeable. I get quarter resolution stuff, performance reasons, of course, but not using rt on water and using rt shadows only for sun and without alpha. I mean what's even a point of this? At least give us Crytek style console variables to play around and remove all those restrictions..
The stuttering every few seconds on a 9900k and a 3090 is unacceptable. I'll be at 4k over 60 fps the entire time, but it'll still stutter randomly with an m2 ssd. They need to fix the CPU core bounding issues.
Enjoying the game for the most part, but this graphics engine feels a bit crusty nowadays. Dunia needs a refresh.
My biggest issue is no FOV slider on console. Definitely a must have setting in modern first person/third person games
The guys at Digital Foundry have a lot on their plate during this time! Thanks for the uncompromising and hard work
Great video Alex. I’m playing it on the Series X and am absolutely loving it. Thanks for pointing out the stuttering when panning the camera. I have noticed it but haven’t thought anything of it. But now I now that it’s a problem and hope they address it. Thanks again.
The issue with stutters when you pan the camera on PS5 (and presumably on XBOX) is a bug. It happens after watching 3-4 cutscenes (where the framerate is capped at 30 fps). When game resumes after watching a small number of said cutscenes the in game framerate begins to show these tiny stutters. If you close the game and reload it, the fps during gameplay is once again buttery smooth without even a hitch of a stutter. So this thing is definitely a bug that is tied to cutscenes.
Thanks for the thorough analysis once again!
