Camiracundus Posted July 26 Share Posted July 26 (edited) I played the game on PS5 last night, and noticed that everything further away than about 10 feet looks like it's covered in a layer of a slight blur effect, or running at a terribly low resolution. It's nothing like the crisp quality I get on my pc, even at lower quality settings, and it's a bit disorienting to look at. The consoles it's released on have the hardware to run the game at much better quality/resolution than it currently is. Right now, it almost gives me a headache because it's like looking at things without my glasses on, and it causes my eyes to strain to try to see things more clearly. Is it supposed to be this way? I noticed that some players who've posted gameplay to YouTube don't seem to have the same low quality/blur issue, and it leaves me wondering if this is a bug or if they're using other console settings or editing to make it look more clear. Another detail is that everything blurs slightly when I'm moving, even after turning off motion blur, which makes things in the distance even harder to see properly. I've posted pictures for comparison. Edited July 28 by Camiracundus Added additional details to description and headline.

3pete Posted July 26 Share Posted July 26 I had the same issue I even opened up my ps4 version just to compare and it honestly looked better in terms of clarity. I swear something was wrong with my eyes at the time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I swear something was wrong with my eyes at the time. Right? I almost thought my TV was on the frizz or something, but when I switched to another game, the quality went back to 4k. I really hope they plan to fix this; the consoles it's released on have the hardware to run it at much higher qualities than what it currently is. I won't be able to play the game much if I get a headache after an hour or two because my eyes keep straining. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OctoberEclipse Posted July 27 Share Posted July 27 Glad I'm not the only one. I've seen other players clips and YouTube videos and they don't seem to have the same issue, or at least don't mind it. It feels like I'm playing without my contacts lol. I've tried lowering the resolution on my monitor, activating HDR, and nothing has helped. Hope they address this if they haven't already.

Camiracundus Posted July 28 Author Share Posted July 28 It really is bad. Can't even read what's written on these storage boxes unless I'm standing right in front of them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RGxGhost Posted July 28 Share Posted July 28 Is there any news that they are gonna fix resolution on ps5. It looks awful like I was shocked at how low quality it is Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moffy Posted July 29 Share Posted July 29 Odd. Mine looks good. I actually hoped they would allow me to decrease it to mitigate some lag Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SweetCheezus Posted July 29 Share Posted July 29 I feel like it's some sort of weird Depth of Field effect and maybe some Chromatic Aberration. If that's the case, we desperately need an option to disable on consoles. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And as my post states, it's already been turned off, but it still looks absolutely terrible - and things still blur further when moving. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The quality is hot garbage right now, no matter the settings in the game, on the console, or the TV. And our consoles definitely can run it at better qualities than the game is right now; just look at other games like Destiny, God of War, Red Dead Redemption etc - those were all released for old gen consoles and still look a million times better than 7 days does. Even the pc version, on lowest settings, look better than this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RGxGhost Posted July 30 Share Posted July 30 i totally agree with that. i’m not impressed at all Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Camiracundus Posted July 31 Author Share Posted July 31 Could also be TAA that makes it look so ugly; not an issue on pc where you can adjust many more settings or using reshade mods to fix it, but on console, we're SOL for improving the quality ourselves, especially considering we don't have a setting for adjusting quality, resolution or sharpness, which can help lessen the blur from TAA. Or maybe, it's chromatic aberration. In any case, it's almost an accessibility issue for many at this point; playing the console edition gives us physical symptoms of discomfort, and this simply can't stand. And what worries me is that we have heard nothing from TFP on any platform or site where this complaint has been mentioned and boosted by likes and comments hundreds of times in the first few days after release. That may mean that they have no intention of fixing this. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Golden29Elite Posted July 31 Share Posted July 31 I affirm that the issue of 'blur' is present beyond our character's grasp, and the writing is incomprehensible at 2 meters. I'm posting this comment in addition to yours to bring the issue to the devlopeur's attention. Especially when I observe the number of players/youtubers who don't take into account the problem yet visible in their clips. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Camiracundus Posted August 5 Author Share Posted August 5 Bumping again. Still no response from the devs anywhere about looking into or fixing this; all they seem to be doing is bragging about record high player numbers on their social media pages while ignoring said players issues with the game.
