Was unsure about Elden Ring on S2. Now I have even less reasons to keep my PS5.
My soul still needs to recover from spending 80 bucks on a game I already have on PlayStation and PC but I gotta say, the Switch 2 is just pure magic. Was tempted to get ER on the Switch but watched countless videos and reviews on it and I just wasn’t sure. The frames, the textures, the graphics.. turns out, none of that matters. The game plays perfectly fine. All the stuff that is lower than on PlayStation 5 or PC, you will not notice it unless you literally compare them side by side and have someone on the internet say “omg but there’s slightly less grass, unplayable trash port”. I can’t talk enough about how amazed I still am by the switch, from bringing back my love for video games to customizing my switch a little, trying out completely different genres.. it just STILL feels so exciting and it’s such a flex being able to play Elden Ring on the TV, in bed, outside, wherever you want, and then switching it up with some Mario kart or Animal Crossing when you get too frustrated. For the first time in my life I’m like “dang can yall slow it down with all these games coming out???” while my coworkers regret spending money on Wolverine or whatever.
So if anybody is reading this and you’re still not sure about Elden Ring on the switch performance wise, there’s nothing to worry about. I’m still blown away by the visuals or how high quality the armors and weapons look. I genuinely don’t notice the lower frames or if there are any slight dips or whatever. I like the fact that when you play online, you only play with people that are also on the switch. It’s so much more fun playing with the switch community compared to PlayStation people. Different topic but it changes so much for me. And I just can’t recommend it enough.
Main Console.
EDIT - I honestly don’t care about GTA 6. Really not a reason to keep my PS5.
