No noticeable fan noise on PS5 at all, console remained cold after 80 minutes of gameplay

From here, I would like to pick up some points of concern other than the functional aspects of PS5.

This time, what was more shocking than "reading" was "quietness of the fans". There must have been many people who were interested in this. It was really quiet !!

It was about 1 hour and 45 minutes, and I think it took about 1 hour and 20 minutes to actually start the PS5. Since the site was a studio, there were few things around, but the room temperature felt quite hot due to the lighting. I was playing "ASTRO's PLAYROOM" and "Godfall" and didn't notice the sound of the fans (exhaust heat). Rather, when I was about to finish the gameplay, I hurriedly confirmed, "Are you a fan?"



My PS4 Pro runs quiet and cool when running last gen looking games, which is basically what these games mentioned look like on a PS5. I'd be impressed if they were actually playing anything that was pushing the system in any way.

Funny you would say that since everything after that was clearly only on the PS5 either exclusively or on PC, including games like God Fall. This is exactly what Cerny spoke about.
 
You've mentioned that you're planning to upgrade to Unreal Engine 5. However, UE5 is only scheduled to hit preview in early 2021, and The Invincible is currently targeting a release in the second half of 2021. Are you really going to make this change only a few months before release?

Daniel:
That’s right, the window will be rather small but with that in mind, we’ve been developing the project in a way to facilitate both a quick upgrade and multiplatform releases. At this point it looks good, so despite planning for contingency, we remain excited.

What is the most exciting aspect of Unreal Engine 5 from your perspective? Also, does targeting only next-gen consoles allow you to make a better game and if so, how?

Daniel:
There are several features that we’re excited about, i.e. Lumen. The offered dynamic lighting system is visually beyond stunning, we’re going to put it to work to improve the realism and believability of our planet, of course if such terms can be ever applied to celestial objects in the Lyra constellation far far away.

We’re also in anticipation of the Chaos Physics and Destruction system, which is going to improve the spectacularity of action, interaction, and demolition. Finally, we’re looking forward to using Niagara VFX to wreak weather havoc on the planet’s surface with sandstorms, lightning strikes, and moving fogs.

How long do you expect The Invincible to last on average? Is it going to be a linear game or does it allow for significant exploration off the main path?

Mariusz:
In a typical first run we’re aiming at several hours of the main plot and a couple of hours of optional content. Yet the time spent with the game will be potentially much longer, depending on the gamer’s own pace, and their actual choices, decisions, and relationships developed along the way. As the story is going to be highly non-linear, and feature several alternative endings, we believe that the weight of the experience will draw gamers to try different choices and approaches in replaying.

Are you planning to take advantage of the DualSense controller's features on PS5? If so, how?

Mariusz:
We’re absolute fans of dynamic adaptive triggers. They are perfect to illustrate the complex interactions with objects such as machines, tools, and equipment in the game by adding a new angle to improve the experience. A more intuitive and literally tactile gameplay will greatly help in terms of immersion.

Sony is banking on some big PlayStation 5 sales in its first few months on the market, as it aims to beat the PlayStation 4’s first fiscal year. The company’s current-gen console sold seven million units from its launch in November 2013 through the end of March 2014, but we know from past reports that the manufacturer may be planning to produce as many as 15 million next-gen consoles by the end of its existing fiscal year.

 
Godfall looks really generic to me. You're running around these gorgeous environments and fighting 3 guys every minute or so, then a boss. Just seems like zero variation to the game.
Reminds me of a demo some guy was working on that they decided to polish up and release. Graphics look great

That makes me think you can buy different panels in the future. Which would be nice. I loved the face plates on the 360

i thought it was GameStop who jumped the boat first the day before....

They did but they also were very careful not to offer many to begin with, the store I went to only had around 16-20 and most of them were digital editions. I was 8th in line and planned on going for the digital one anyway but the were telling people that's all they had left before I even got to the front. They were also turning a lot of people away at the door so they were being very careful not to oversell what they would be getting. This UK store sounds like they just let anyone sign up on a list and it would count as a pre-order, I don't know if they even had a limit at all.

Agreed, which sucks because I'm liking the graphics and aesthetics quite a bit.
 
I just got an email from Walmart saying my arrival date has been changed. It says the new date is Thursday November 12th. I assumed that was the original date anyway???

I got real nervous when I saw the headline.
