This next-gen release provides the best possible way to experience Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order on consoles, bringing the following technical improvements:
Heard the PC version stutters when entering a new area (likely shader compilation related) and in other random instances (likely I/O related). Guess that makes the Series X and PS5 versions the ones to play
CerebralTiger still living in a fantasy world where Cerny solved all his I/O stutter problems
Well, Fallen Order always had some issues in terms of asset streaming, causing hitching and stuttering. This is something that happened on all versions of the game, even on the PC version, and it's interesting to see that in the 60fps modes, there are still some problems here on all systems.
But the gif is from the most recent version and nothing has changed. There are even some "streamable" clips showing asset streaming issues in cut scenes as well.
First evidence was the latest video from the trusted VGTech. The gif shows the stutter when entering a new area. Can't help it when people choose to disregard it at their own convenience
Low effort or high effort port, people playing it now are experiencing stuttering even on native PS5/Series versions
Went through the VG tech analysis video, and it looks like the gpu is being stressed here by the character interacting with the water. Had it been I/O related, the Series X and S would've exhibited similar drops in performance

Even if you argue that the vertical line represents when the drop in performance manifests on-screen, it wouldn't take like 3 seconds for that to happen
Regardless, the Series S drops into the 40s, despite having the same IO config as the Series X
Consoles were my main platform ever since Atari 2500. But now I think it's not worth it as PC especially with DLSS deliver far smoother performance. AW2 on console didn't even had ray tracing and ran below 30fps. Similar issues plagues DD2 on consoled.
I have a PS5 but I am not satisfied with the experience. I am currently saving for a 4080 64 GB rig soon. Bit will wait for Pro if performance improves. This gen has been so bad I don't plan on buying consoles anymore for AAA gaming.

Just downloaded my first legit digital PC game on GoG at a discount of $8: Two Point Hospital. The same team behind Theme Hospital Two Point Studios now part of Sega. And I am having more fun than most recent AAA games except of course BG3.
Still, I don't like either Sony or Microsoft as they are focusing more on corporate greed than delighting customers. PC gaming is best of gaming and worth every penny.
PC Gamer score of 58/100 for Hellblade 2??? Is it really worse than Gollum that was 64/100? Microsoft games can't even come close to high scores of Sony exclusives apparently.
About the Microsoft (and Sony) debate, I feel both have become too greedy and losing their minds over corporate greed. Personally, I will never buy any console next gen and switch to PC gaming where democracy reins.
