Naughty Dog brings The Last of Us Part 2 over to PlayStation 5 with a native app, extra modes, graphics upgrades and a wealth of behind-the-scenes materials. But with the PS4 Pro version already upgraded for PS5 with a 60fps, just how much of an upgrade are owners of the original game getting - and is the extra $10 asking price worth it? Resident TLOU expert, Oliver Mackenzie, has all the answers.

I can’t help but agree with what John Linneman said: they should’ve called this a Director’s Cut like what Ghost of Tsushima got because it’s very similar. They gave us some additional content, PS5 haptic support, and slight visual enhancements. Calling this a remaster is really overselling what this game is.

@Hateroz
@Hateroz 3 місяці тому
Regarding Ambient Occlusion (6:31), maybe the increase in resolution makes the game render more foliage on top of the AO of the foliage behing thus making the image looking like it lacks depth when in reality, there's just more things rendered in front of the AO, blocking the shadowy effect. This is a phenomenon similar to what appens in GTA V regarding anti-aliasing: when using MSAA, the game makes the grass look kind of transparent, which makes it look like it lacks some detail compared to classic FXAA ; the explanation lies in the fact that it just renders too many samples and just can't show them, making it look transparent on anything below 4K.

It's subtle, and may just be a result of the remaster being darker overall, but to my eye there seems to be a little less inappropriate light bleed on at least on primary character assets in areas like under the arms, hair, between the thighs, and in the folds of clothing. It's the kind of improvement I normally associate with bent normals or some kind of tracing solution, but might also just be some kind of granularity bump to whatever system they were using before.

What i believe happened here is that devs at Naughty Dog knew that sooner or later the massive multiplayer project will not pan out as intended, and hence were forced by the studio to release atleast something to keep the brand image afloat while they put all their (newly freed) resources on an un-announced IP.

This feels like more of a director's cut of the game than a remaster.

They could have just either relabeled it to The Last of Us Part II director's cut or just straight up made the extra content paid DLC.

@miketexas4549 I get why you would make the suggestion, but my point was to be able to play TLOU2 characters and universe in online co-op.

Can someone make sure I understand correctly? If the game's resolution is native 4k, then turning on 120Hz or VRR does not reduce it, right? However, if the game has a resolution specified as dynamic, then turning on 120Hz or VRR reduces it depending on the options enabled, right?

@@flannelsykes0 it's a bad sign that sarcasm and condescension are no longer required in expressing disappointment. I genuinely wanted to be wrong about this being a Director's Cut disguised as a Remaster. "The Lost Levels DLC" would be a much more exciting name for this project, giving us some Crash Bandicoot nostalgia!

We can clearly see from the vid that the frame rate cannot go to 120 FPS, but it is basically close to that. Maybe with DRS it woild be possible, but it is understandable. And idk if implementing ray tracing would be necessary. The game already looks really good, and there aren't many places where ray tracing is needed. It would be hella expensive and could kill the frame rate.

I mean the game's frame rate was doubled over the PS4 version which ran at 30fps

@@crestofhonor2349 I know, but that was on PS5 too. But even the PS5 on Backwards Compatibility dropped frames in some sections. And this is on the same platform, but with native PS5 support, so there is potential for higher frame rates, which is shown in the vid. I think it is quite awesome what they did, bc it is around the level of SM1 Performance RT uncapped mode's performance, and TLOU 2 is way more visually impressive than that game. Plus, IMO it is unrealistic that we can see a major graphical upgrade, since the PS4 is known for basically being the limit of graphics. This gen is more focused about larger scopes of worlds and more minor visual stuff that isn't too noticable for the average consumer.
