Of course, your mileage may vary, and we’ll be able to get a clearer idea when we’ll see more gameplay and the final frame rate. Overall, it seems to be relatively small, and the Switch version holds up pretty well. That being said, the fact that there is a price to pay for portability should be expected. Considering that we haven’t seen much of the Switch version just yet, we’ll have to wait and see if this is just situational, or happens across the board.
Dragon quest xi the measure of a man Ps4#
It’s hard to say whether it’s a measure to save on geometry rendering in a complex scene, or simply an oversight.ĭragon Quest XI S might not be a completely linear downgrade, though, as at least in one instance (the fourth screenshot below) appears to show more mid-distance detail on Switch, with a rocky outcrop and a tree visibly absent in the PS4 version. In some cases, certain shadows are completely absent on Switch, and during the scene in the throne room, the hero’s sword doesn’t appear on his back, even if it does appear in other scenes. Ultimately, the Switch version appears to have a bit less depth in almost every instance. The same can be said about armor, foliage, and architectural elements. This is especially visible in the fabric of clothes, which shows visible texture and detail on PS4, while it’s almost completely flat on Switch. Textures, normal maps, lighting, and shading are all visibly less defined and less complex in the Switch version.
It wouldn’t be fair to expect the Switch version of Dragon Quest XI to be on par with the PS4 version, and in fact, it isn’t. This means that the team at Square Enix can still perform further optimization and maybe squeeze some more juice out of Nintendo’s console. It’s likely that the Switch version will take quite a bit of time longer in the oven since we don’t have a firm release date. Do keep in mind that this is only a preliminary comparison.
