It makes me think there's going to have to be a lot of compromises to get this thing to work on the last gen systems.
Plus, if they're having trouble with those systems, I can only imagine what's going on with the Switch.
Damn I was waiting for the PS4 version but now it collides with Tears of the Kingdom. Not sure when I'll get a chance to play it now
I mean, you don’t have to get it at release.
True of course, but I'm betting Tears will keep me occupied for a while and the further we get the more tempted I am to wait till I get a PS5 instead. Guess it depends on how good the port is.
i do not see many sales on Xseries. Ps4 should be good sales due to millions of people not having a Ps5 yet
I really hope last gen ports work.
If I play this, I will just wait until I get a PS5. Tears of the Kingdom is going to take up my time in May.
I assumed it had already sold on last gen hardware. Impressive it's sold that well on the newer consoles and pc.
Considering how impressive it looks on my PC/Series X and Playstation 5, I feel it's the first game of the generation that has truly showed us what this new hardware is actually capable of.
I would assume the downgrades to fit it on lesser hardware is taking time due to how time intensive baking all the lighting and shadowing is going to be for the art teams.
My friends been waiting to play this on their PS4 and Xbox one but I think most of them will now just gonna get PS5 or XBOX series after hearing this news
