It should be illegal to release remasters at 30fps.
Kinda yeah
I agree
yup. esp since when darksiders 2 was released on pc it wasnt hardware dommanding.
+Staticz PC Gamers are cancer.
+Монокини Чехова You are a peasant in denial,even console gamers disagree with this bad remaster,30 frames like last gen?
There's no reason for this to be 30fps.
+Sigfee Same with Dishonored.
Gordon Freeman the Lombax of Space and Hedgehogs and THE TRUE HIGH KING OF SKYRIM AND PANDAS I agree. That should have been 60fps too.
Sigfee Yeah, my old 6670 which is actually worse than the Xbox One's GPU would've ran that at 60fps.
+Sigfee xbox one dips below 30 that's why ...
oh trying to start a console war ? it's more like a fact
Zack Tahiri ?????
I'm glad this generation people talk more about performance. This is a good trend that will finally force developers provide 60 fps rather than higher resolution.
This comment hasnt aged well
@@Stephen_Black I think there will still be ways of optimising games to 60fps at 1440p atleast. Just because its a newer engine doesnt mean it cant be optimized to be efficient
@@adk4986it indeed hasnt, Starfield is 30fps on console, its utter shit that graphics are being prioritized over performance.
@@Fudgeoff6628 Meanwhile the graphics dont look anything better than a 2017 game
Congratulations Darksiders 2 Deathinitive Edition, you made the Xbox 360 vanilla version look awesome.
The original release always looked awesome. Despite having both the PS4 and Switch versions of the deathinitive edition, sometimes I’ll boot up original version of the game on Steam (which looks a bit different, in terms of lighting, textures and there are some extra objects, like some more trees in the Guardian boss arena and some improved objects like Death’s hair having white strands and keys having a rusted metal part). The art direction for this game was expertly crafted, and in my opinion, even the original release still looks good due to how everything was designed to look like it was grabbed out of a comic book.
Edit: there’s a PS5 version coming and I’m wondering what improvements they’ll implement. I heard about larger resolution and ray tracing, but I’m wondering if we’ll get more frames or something. Honestly, I’d rather have them implement a transmog system for weapons and Armor, so we could make our favourite builds, but also make it all look like a set.
Played this game at 60fps with a 660ti easily, so this port is bad, both consoles could run it at 60fps too.
"30fp..." Nope
+Korey D it's not that bad. I have the PC version and the differences arent that big of a deal.
question: did you buy gtav for the ps4/xbone?
Nope, I have GTAV for the 360 and PC. Of course, I play the PC version regularly nowadays.
It's not due to 30FPS being "bad", but I'm just waaaay too used to 60FPS that going back to 30FPS is absolutely jarring. A last-gen remaster has no business being 30FPS imo.
Korey D oh, well since you play the PC, just wait for the PC release. Gunfire devs hinted at something about it being this month, but we'll see.
But i was asking about gta v since that runs at 30 fps, and no one was complaining about that
yes but it looks good solid 30fps is good :)
But ign said it was 60fps I'm so confused.
+TheTitanFallPrincess can't spell ignorant without "ign"
+TheFrozenTurtle lol thats perfect
I agree. Omg thanks DF I was going to buy this game. Ign are such liars
+TheTitanFallPrincess isn't it possible they made a mistake instead of lying? it's not like ign gave it a rave review. they gave it 7.5 or 7.4 or something and most idiots think any game that gets lower than an 8.5 is shit
+TheTitanFallPrincess ign.
Darksiders 2: 30fps Edition
>Definitive edition
>30 fps on "next gen"
kek
I rented this, googled before i put in the game in my ps4, saying on IGN, its great at 60fps...the reviewers eyes are botched. I knew as soon as I put it on, it wasn't 60fps >_< so infuriating
+DigitalFoundry John, don't forget to do a new Frame-Rate Test video for Darksiders: Warmastered Edition.
I'm shocked they couldn't get it to 60fps....
wt kind of stupid remastered is this ?
Seems like the PC version is the real DEATHinitive Edition, but it seems XBOX One is the best looking of these 3, it has a noticeably better texture quality and lightning than the others, hell 360 looks better than PS4 in some scenes, and this is coming from a Sony guy.
Mark Gorgees wut?
Thanks, guys. You've just saved me 10 bucks.
it's basically for those who missed it the first time it came out.. I'm actually curios why they didn't pack in the first darksiders. the better game imo
+LE0NSKA
"it's basically for those who missed it the first time it came out.."
A lot of people missed out Darksiders 2 because it sold like shit when THQ was dying... It sold like 247,000 copies in the US. The devs probably wanted to resell Darksiders 2 to gain a profit and to get people ready for the next game.
+lonewolf972 He's asking why the original wasn't packed in as well on one disc with the 2nd for a complete package.
123doomdoom
Why you are being hostile over my comment when I was giving a *REASON* why the devs is probably selling 2 only as it sold awful.
***** ye, me too actually.
The Black King are you serious? my very first sentense gives you another reason why you could pick this up.. holy shit man
Why is this 30fps? So many games look leap years better than this, and run at 60fps
if you never played this game, just pick the PC version of both games for less than 20 bucks, and i guarantee that any "gaming notebook" from 4 years ago can run this at 60 frames......
seriously the game is running on maxed out settings on low end gpu's at 100+fps
DF, how you guys are saying the PS4 version is the best version just shows your bias for the PS4.
Pause at 2:19
PS4 = Horribly dark (for no reason), blurry textures, and washed out colors.
While, the Xbox One version has the brightness it should be at, sharp textures, and more vibrant colors.
The Xbox One version looks much better than the PS4 version.
I'm all about performance, but since it's already at a horrible 30fps the few "tiny" dips on the Xbox One won't even be noticeable. So, I'll take the better visuals on the Xbox One over the dark, dull, and blurry PS4 version.
3:21 30 fps and the 360 version looks better yes they did a great job
Wasn't this on the Wii U AND RUN better? No screen tearing, the better visuals, but 30fps too at THE START of the generation.
the new patch (4k) has reached 60fps?
30 fps? No chance
I'd rather play the old PC version at 60 FPS, even though it has less effects.
I just downloaded this game for free from PS+. It’s extremely laggy and frames tear up all the time. The graphics look like a PS3 game and the 30fps is garbage. How embarrassing specially that PS+ raised their prices but here they are giving us crappy games released like what in 2012?
Xbox 360 frame rate is way better than the xbox one, you don't know what you're talking about on this video but on others you do, so that means you have no interest in Darksiders. It's such a shame because Darksiders 2 is Masterpiece.
hey remember the prototype remaster, that was like this but even worse
Is it just me.. or does the Xbox One look like it has much better textures than the PS4... might explain the performance loss...
No buddy xone does look better imo you're sane don't worry.
+Samuel Marlow Yep. Digital foundry has stated PS4 version has reduce textures
I actually like the color contrast on the 360 version. The XBO and PS4 looks really flat and washed out in comparison. But none of them look like they're running as well as they should.
The second I saw 30 fps, I laughed. I know that this isn't the console's fault. Both are capable of running this at 60 fps all settings maxed. This is getting ridiculous. Are they just trying to take advantage of people that don't know the difference between 30 and 60 fps? If so, they ain't making a fool out of me. Good thing Digital Foundry is here to expose when developers pull stunts like this.
What, DF, why did you say a lot of work went into this? It's clear barely any work went into the remakes. How does a game this abhorrent looking, by modern-standards, only run at 30fps (and inconsistent at that)?
DF a Sonic Boom Frame rate test?
PS Sonic Lost World now is on PC! :D
Yep! xD
+Aquilus Lost World must be gorgeous on PC! I have it on Wii U, and really enjoyed it, but I won't buy it again on PC since the visuals were already top-notch on Wii U; PC would only give me 1080p instead of 720p. Generations looks amazing on PC compared to the 360 and PS3 versions which were sub-30fps and sub-720p.
***** Yep i have a 1080p simple i don't have WiiU, for this i'm happy because i can play it on my pc now xD
***** You're mistaken. Sonic Lost World on Wii U was native 720p upscaled to 1080p. Running at 60fps. Most Wii U games are 720p native.
Yeah i love it! But Adventure DX is the best
An analysis should've never been done on this because there's absolutely nothing different.
There is a bug in the City of the dead, that dont allow the progress, only in the xbox one version.
I'm unable to play on xbox one the frame rate is horrible
Wasn't this game 60fps on the Xbox 360 and PS3 like the first Darksiders??
30 Frames bullshit the ps4 could have easily handled this at 60 and the xbox one as well what a rip off.
current consoles can't run open world games or semi-open world games (like dishonored and darksiders 2) without sacrificing framerate so they locked it at 30fps. Other remastered games like TNDC seems like a linear game, so 60fps was necessary.
Is it poor anisotropic filtering on the PS4 that affects the snow texture on that level? It's a shame that we're having to choose between blurry textures and low frame rates on the *next gen* consoles.
It looks fucking identical, so why he hell isn't it 60 FPS?
the game looks weird on ps4, I can't see if it's only colours or if the assets are also different.
God im just now getting into “Deathinitive” edition, it runs like such shit on Series X.
THQNordic dropped the fucking ball here, almost 10 years later and still no quality of life patches, do they even give a fuck for their games?
You heard it here the news? It’s getting a current gen update
I wanted to love this game so much,but the 360 version was bad framerate and low quality graphics.The PC is where it's at. Everyone wants to re-leased all their games,because consoles are crap,and this definitive is 30 frames! lol wtf.The only definitive versions are the PC Master Race versions.
need for speed video coming, or waiting for the pc version to test all 3?
just want a bioshock definitive collection, but instead we keep on getting ports no one wants *sigh* bioshock inginite would look stunning if ported correctly.
A Bioshock collection was leaked a month or two ago.
If you have a PC, just get them all on that. The games are very easy to run, look great, and are pretty cheap.
I hope you realize Bioshock on PS3 had the ability to turn V-sync off and ran well above in the 40fps+ region.
+chelseagrin24 with decreased visual quality yes, same as on 360
There already is a Bioshock collection. It's just Infinite that isn't in it.
Has ign seen this video
this is what their reviewer said in the review
""Slashing my way through masses of creatures feels nice and responsive especially with the upgrade to 60 frames per second"
+Wes Baugher Shows what the idiots at IGN know about games as I can feel when a game is running at 30fps as the controls are less responsive. I can also see the game is 30fps because of the distinct judder of every single frame being repeated before another new frame is drawn and of course the blurring of background when panning the camera to look around.
@@NoName-qq8ri yes. When spinning the camera, there's less coherency to the image at 30 fps, than there is at 60 fps.
"Fraud edition" indeed.
THE-MED And they have the balls to enhance darksiders 1 backwards compatible but not war mastered or deathinitive.
I am the only one who gives it dips in various parts of the game but I am talking about fps drops that make the game horrible
Fingers crossed the Xbox one x enhancement will come out with 4k60fps this game will be amazing
wow peasants get 2 extra fps (some dips on "next-gen" tho)
it's totally worth it though, those 2 fps could save your life. /s
+E SC Wow, another pc nerd here to bore the life outta everyone.
*****
Yeah, he's implying people that game on consoles are peasants.
*****
And little? ha if you only knew
What? 30 fps? This does not make sense to be "deathinitive edition" then...
30 fps really?
I can't believe this game runs at 30 FPS on XONE and PS4.
studios should receive contraventions for games with fps unstable, which would put the Xbox One particularly bankrupt
Such a shame for current gen consoles.
If you are going to make it 30fps, at least make the game look VERY noticeably different. Yes, there are changes but it doesn't look that much different... There's no excuse for it to run like this tbh.
Why are there so many fucking remastered games. i fucking hate it.
30fps? bruh come on. it should be able to reach 60 without any issues.
why is it 30 fps? lol
Goddamn. The Xbone can't even keep up 30 fps for Darksider 2? That console truly is pathetic.
This is a very unimpressive game visually . I got dozens of PS3/ 360 games that look better than this and they're over 3 years old.
Obligatory "your consoles suck" comment!
LOL.... IGN's review was boasting 60FPS / 1080P! of course, I should have known better.
Can you guys do a frame rate tests for Assassin's creed syndicate on the consoles? Skeptical about the new one
+Triforce Hero uhmmmmmm they did.
I got this game on 360 with games with gold and I have not touched it I don't know why
Got it for 8 bucks on Wii U. Worth it.
Its funny how he said the ps4 plays better, but I'm sorry I though the ps4 had way to much screen tearing. I would recommend the x1for this game. It not as noticeable.
hi, why you not mention that Xbox one version has v-sync, so no tearing but few dips whereas ps4 has no v-sync, so no dips but tearing... U act like ps4 version has no tearing, it's full of it, Xbox one has ZERO TEARING! thx to do your job, but try to give true and good infos...
Same Frames as 360 LOL
im sick of those devs, you cant even run a old gen game at 60fps what a shame.
Nothing definitive about this one.
They never said it is.. in their defence. its "deathinitive"
Legacy of Kain was 60fps on the Dreamcast. This game doesn't look much better and is 30fps on current gen systems rofl
Funny IGN reviewed this game and stated it 60FPS!
They are losing it over there!
Why the fuck does this remaster even exist? It hasn't even been done well.
The fucking ign review said that the game runs at 60fps ,why ?
even remasters are stuck at 30fps now? smh......
the Wii U version is better
Does it run at 60 on PC?
The FUCK!?No 60 fps....
can you do a comparison of WWE 2K16 please
Dear users, does the PS4 version suffer from crashes, lag or some other punkassbullshit?
Does it include ALL of the DLC?
Thank you.
It does include all the DLC.
Don't know about the performance, since i am thinking about getting it in the black friday sale
Linkin According to this video it holds a steady 30 fps on PS4, it sucks a bit since it's a remaster and i would have preferred a steady 60 fps.
***** I think i won't be playing this game, and that's sad because i loved the 1st one, it goes to the list with Deus Ex:invisible war and many other games that don't work anymore on PC or are poorly ported or coded at the core. Say hello to skyrim special edition ....
I don`t fucking get this guys, why won`t they just release it at a locked 60fps? You might say that the consoles wouldn`t be able to keep a locked framerate , but that`s bullshit, since even a fuckin gtx 460 can run this shit at 60 fps. Hell, they could do a straigth port and not give a shit and it would still be easy to make it run at 60 fps. I just never understood how this remastered bullshit works:: you have a game that`s on ps3 and pc, you look at a pc gameplay and you see that a gpu less powerfull than a ps4 can run the game at a locked 60 fps in 1080p, yet, for some reason, when the remastered version comes out on the ps4, it only runs at a fuckin 30fps!? COME ON GUYS!
IGN see either liars or need their vision corrected cause they claimed it was 60 FPS
Look a bad remaster why the ps4 is look like the 360 ver when ps4 have games like infamous¿?
30 FPS!? ARE YOU KIDDING ME?!
30fps is not definitive...
it just has to be the CPU even some weak 80$ GPUs can run this fine with average(modern) CPUs
It's not about the consoles, it's about the port being shit. This game ran perfect on my gtx 680 at like 130 fps. What a shitty port lol.
I was hoping for a Darksiders 2xpack with all DLC at 60fps. This remaster is just lazy.
In conclusion, go buy the PC version for $5 and play it on a modest PC at 60fps.
Worth getting once the Game is on Sale for $15 until then don't buy these crappy re-releases because you won't be doing yourself a favor or the rest of the gaming industrie.
Why wasn't PS3 included in this comparison
+Sjono I imagine they chose the better running version from last gen to compare. I could be wrong but the 360 seemed to run the majority of multiplats slightly better.
+Sjono framerate in this game wasn't so stable on PS3.
Does the first one run good on PS3 or 360?
Just image if they did a 5 way Split on the video having the PS4/X1/PS3/360/Wii U versions at the same time would looks like a mess
30fps, what a disappointment
even PCs from 2009 can handle 60fps
WTF, 30 FPS....i thought it was 60?
+Sophie Sykes huh, thats weird then why are they showing 30 FPS in here?
Xbox One version looks better.
No comparison with the PS3 version?
Clearly the PS4 version is the best. It is running at a stable 30 fps, whereas Xbox One dips a little bit. Xbox 360... >_>
To be honest, they should have remastered Darksiders 1 and 2 in this set, and then continued the series.
I'll pick this up when it drops down to around $10, and even that feels like too much to spend on this lazy ass remaster.
ANOTHER REMAKE! Oh my god ... what a surprise! XD XD XD
PC release confirmed for November. Even though it's already on PC. It's obvious, this is just another pointless 'remaster' for the newer consoles to cash in on lack of backwards compatibility (or not in the case of XB1). Come on, give us actual new games on these consoles instead of simply rehashing old stuff. And yet another 30FPS console game? Ya know what. That's it. I won't buy any next-gen console games that run at 30 fps. 60fps only. Another set of games not to buy, alongside the pre-orders. Say no to 30fps! I'm getting tired of waiting for a reason to use my PS4.
the game lags alot on xbox one compared to ps3 in my experience
so in ps4 got frame drops and a little better lighting IT is King. in the x Box got better Texturen and the ps4 hold the fps a little better PS 4 is King.
