The state of the game on PS5 is unacceptable
(Can’t post this in the official subreddit because apparently I don’t have enough karma? I guess only true gamers can complain about the game)
Many of us constantly complain on surveys about the lack of optimization for PS5, but every new patch or endgame reset the situation gets worse and worse. With the latest WhiWa reset, the state of the game has reached one of the lowest I could have imagined.
If you have the characters and the time, I invite you to try and clear any WhiWa floor with the premium Lucy team. I’m not sure if it is for the number of animations that Lucy has, but not only I have to play the game while a slideshow is passing in front of my eyes, I also have to slow down because the game can’t keep up while going from Lucy rotation to Mornye rotation. For the first time, I found myself having a better time clearing the endgame on my phone than on my PS5 Pro! Not even the Pro model apparently can keep up with the game, which makes me think that it must be a CPU issue (since the performance of the game on base PS5 and Pro model are almost identical).
I am perfectly aware of the fact that the game is most popular on mobile devices where most of the revenue comes from, and I am sure that Kuro developers are more than capable of fixing those issues (although I can imagine working with UE must be a pain). So I know that business-wise there is no incentive for them to optimize the game for console, while adding more and more graphical feats definitely brings them a lot of revenue (“Look at the insane graphics on this free game!”). However, I feel like keeping complaining and being vocal about those issues is the only way to make them heard.
