There is a nexus mod to remove letter box, motion blur, chromatic aberration and film grain. Might give it a try if it works on GP version

It does work in GP. I use it. There is also a tweak that fixes the fov. I hate Chromatic Aberration, but I leave it enabled in this game as I did with Alien Isolation. CA just works well with this game.

If this were a PS exclusive a certain someone would’ve already finished it, praising it as the greatest looking game ever, and flooded its thread with social media praise. Funny how that works….

How many mods total then? 2? One for the fov and one for the others? I'll probably search them up on nexus then

The graphics are incredibly CGI-like. I like how there are no load times. All the scenes are real time and transition to player control is seamless. The game play isn't as bad as the critics make it out to be.

And they say xbox tax is not real 🤣.

Cod will be next.

Microsoft shouldn't even bother with the social media at this point.

This is how you're playing it? Is it zoomed in without the black bars or?
 
Also the amount of hate this game is getting is kind of crazy.

I can understand not liking the style of gameplay. But already trying to wish into existence Ninja Theory being shut down is shameful.
I almost wish Microsoft would get out of the gaming business just so all these YouTubers and gaming “journalists” could find a new villain.
 
It's the ones who loved the first that make me laugh. It's the same style game but done much better but now it's suddenly an issue.
lol. Exactly.
I even saw one f***er in his video claiming that the graphics aren’t even that impressive . “ if you really look”.

Like, are you f***ing with me?

The combat feels way more realistic, cinematic and brutal. Idk. I don’t know what people want or expected.
I agree. I like the combat. In fact, I wish Ninja Theory would develop an Adventure RPG with this kind of combat/animations. Loosen it up a bit so you can fight multiple enemies.

Hellblade2 makes me want to replay Ryse. The game was so under-rated for its gameplay.

Deleted the game part of the way into chapter 5. I couldn't get one of the 3 environmental puzzle things to activate no matter how many times I looked at it. Even followed a video guide and couldn't get it to do anything no matter how many times I looked at it and moved to. I left the game in quick resume for a couple of days, so not sure if that messed something up. I didn't consider that potentially being the issue until deleting the game. Oh well.
