  • Just a quick graphics comparison I whipped up comparing the PS4 version of the game to the Nintendo Switch version. All in all I think it's a pretty remarkable conversion.

      Yeah as they say, why would they release a Definitive Version on the same platform? and some of the ps4 owners gets mad about it on how Nintendo gets so much features like:
      Orchestra Music on Game
      Gets To play from 3D - 2D
      And the other feature like those Tiny Creature thingy I forgot what those thing, but they pretty small and scattered throughout the map
      But the DE will be released on PS4 soon so they get to play the DE if they didn’t own a Switch

The trees, lamps, that plank you can step on that's on the bridge that connects heliodor, barrels, and the decorations all around heliodor all do the same thing. Lots of things load up when you get really close but as soon as you step like 2 feet away, most detail immediately starts to disappears.

I may end up still putting up with it for the orchestral score. I'm very much on the fence about which version to play now that the Switch release is imminent and the PS4 version is cheap.

Also, Eleven's eyes lose a lot of definition when I pan the camera around to face him in open spaces (looks fine in doors, but the camera doesn't seem further away, so I'm wondering if this is due to a dynamic resolution on Switch).

      the switch version plays the same, with more content then the original (PC,PS4)
      so you're getting more game (new story scenes and quests, 2d mode, past DQ worlds in 2D),
      streamlined quicker gameplay in many ways (battle speed increase, faster running around, call horse anywhere, forge equipment anywhere)
      japanese or english voices, synthesized or orchestrated soundtrack, or even DQ8 music instead, new costumes for everyone
      prob more i've only played the PS4 original version which lacks everything above.

    Can anybody confirm if the PC/PS4 version had multitudes of things fade in and out of the screen? Everywhere I go things like trees and rocks just starts appearing as you go along. It's downright ugly on the Switch. It's even worse in heliodor. Some things like lamps barrels, walls disappear and pop in as you go along through it. And mix that with the blurry, pixelated look and you got a downright ugly version.
    Also I noticed 1 thing in some comparison videos is that the bridge in the beginning moves like an actual bridge would if you stepped on it on the PS4. But it doesn't move on the switch demo.

      @@Soldano999 The PS4 version is actually superior in the graphical department. The lighting bounces more naturally so you get that sort very realistic reflection of light on the armor suits and things like that where as the Switch version is a bit bland and you can't really make out the differences between the refraction of light. In other words you can distinctly identify the separation of light and the graphical art in each scene. It has a more natural look to it. The brightness is also a bit darker shaded and the textures are a bit more bland, where as the PS4 is more crisp clearly running at a higher resolution. So yeah the PS4 is a slight upgrade and may be an issue for some that want the absolutely best in quality. But given all the features and the classic 2d style element incorporated into the switch version is a major win win and definitely outweighs the slight decrease in graphics.

      @@leonard9624 you can't patch the Switch's less powerful hardware... The PS4 version definitely looks a lot better. That said, I'll probably still get it on Switch for the extra content. Even though it's the worst version of the game (visually speaking) , it still looks good enough.

    What’s strange is that the PS4 ver. Has parity with the switch in terms of resolution (on docked mode) at a fixed 900p, but the switch ver. Has some elements that look slightly better like the More detailed water shaders and strong bloom effects, with the PS4 ver. Having of course the Higher amount of foliage and density, albeit by a minor amount... the only real difference I see is the scaled TXAA anti-alias and the Darker tint that makes the game less vibrant then the PS4 ver.
