Ys VIII: Lacrimosa of Dana by Mischief Maker 07/26/2018, 4:06pm PDT
Thank God Hello Games fucked up No Man's Sky Next for GOG customers so badly they gave store credit refunds to EVERYONE, otherwise I would have never pulled the trigger on this port.

It's Patch 7 as of this posting, and they've fixed the rendering at 4K no matter what issue so framerates are consistently smooth. I cleared chapter 1 and two bosses and so far I've not had any crashes, I've not had any slowdowns, in fact all I've seen so far is one menu using PS4 button prompts and a single shadow glitching out at a weird angle. I've heard things start to get buggy after chapter 4, but fingers crossed that warning no longer applies to the current patch.

Hooray, because I can already see the amount of love poured into this game!

And what a difference after the glacial pace of No Man's Sky to play a game with survival mechanics at the Ys FAST FAST FAST pace! Instead of standing still and shaving space rocks for 5 minutes with my pathetic space laser, in Ys VIII you don't even break your sprint to mine minerals.

I'm happy!
