@AVGN82 @MGSMGN That is accurate. That's why on Pro with the latest patches it is able to keep 60 until combat starts, it seems the enemy behavior drags it back down. But they have at least eliminated the main GPU bottlenecks.

@NTPrime @MGSMGN Much of Delta's issues are CPU related

I don’t own a PS5 Pro, so I can’t speak from experience about the latest PSSR improvements. But after watching a few videos and seeing how much better things look and run performance wise, especially with Delta and other games, I’m starting to think it’s worth saving up for one.

@Benzopenis @AristotleRevolt @peach2k2 In what way? The focal distance would be the same as a real book.

@AristotleRevolt @peach2k2 Staring into a screen to read a book… how to destroy your eyesight even worse

completely obliterate your eyesight with this one simple trick!

@AVGN82 @MGSMGN Yeah but that's not the case for Delta.

@NTPrime @MGSMGN There is a marginal performance gain moving from PSSR1 to PSSR2 but it will have performance/graphical benefits designed with PSSR2 in mind as they can use a lower base resolution

@J_Kitans @Zedris_Z @KnownAsSys I don't know what you mean by "the looting" but you get used to the in-game menus pretty quick. It's mainly the vault and customization screens that need some work.

@NTPrime @Zedris_Z @KnownAsSys The looting was ass when I was playing the server slam. One of the main reasons I didnt buy the game when it came out. Yall keep pretending it isn't an issue tho.

I hereby retract my previous statement about Marathon being more successful on console. Apparently console players are hating this shit.

@luksmuk @aborrowedladder @MGSMGN I know?

@NTPrime @aborrowedladder @MGSMGN pssr is an upscaler it just makes a lower rendered image bigger

@NightYap Your mind would fascinate Jane Goodall.

@NTPrime anyways hopefully it gets shutdown asap

Some Marathon things. - Some Xbox and PS5 owners said that matchmaking can take 10 minutes if you disable cross-play with PC. - Only 0.2% of the 100 million PS5 owners bought this first party Sony game. It's not known if it sold more, or less than Concord and Lego Horizon.

@Zedris_Z @KnownAsSys I don't see how being on a M&K will stop me or anyone else from getting bodied by a pro regardless? Controller and mouse players shooting each other is pretty normal in 2026, not sure why extraction genre makes any sort of new argument about it.

@NTPrime @KnownAsSys Its about speed and precision in higher level play not casuals. Play against higher end gamers like shroud, landmark, willerz and you’re going to get bodied 10/10 times. Imagine playing Tarkov against them with a controller.

@NightYap Your opinion is not based on any logic and is actively wishing for a negative outcome for the thousands of people who are enjoying Marathon. Why would I be completely fine with an opinion like that?

@NTPrime unlike you i’m completely fine with peoples opposing opinions!

@Goosewasinuse Overlooking the fact that even getting close enough to knife someone is a massive risk. If they have some buffs on then yeah this is fine.

No but seriously, TWO heavy hits kills a gold shield player???

@Zedris_Z @KnownAsSys Controllers have dpads. Looting is absolutely fine. Everyone I know who plays on PC still uses a controller.

@KnownAsSys Hardcore extraction shooters is just not a good idea for consoles. Just looting alone on a controller is a nightmare. They are at an extreme disadvantage playing against top pc players

@NightYap I want Crimson Desert delisted. I don't play Crimson Desert and having it delisted will not improve my quality of life in any way. I am you.

@V3nti1at0r i want them to shut servers down

@Opioraryap @Kotaku Calls me a retard and then blocks me so I can't reply. Typical snowflake.

@Opioraryap @Kotaku The internet seriously fucked you up lmao. Talk about a shit dweller.

Bungie's Marathon will be a test to see whether Sony still gives a shit. It's a franchise worth investing in at a time when PlayStation has been cutting its losses. kotaku.com/sony-is-at-a-c…

@aborrowedladder @MGSMGN It's a fake thumbnail. If it was a true side-by-side there are actual differences in hair rendering, foliage, general noisiness, etc.

@MGSMGN I don’t see a difference?

@MGSMGN Also that's a fake thumbnail it's literally an identical image without the PSSR2 override active.

@MGSMGN PSSR2 does not improve performance in any way over PSSR1. But yes it does improve image quality, and the Pro overall is far better than a base PS5 for this game and others.

@HARDHEAD7WD @metacritic Yeah because the pinnacle content hadn't unlocked yet. Did you seriously not know that?

@metacritic Remember the publications who waited almost a month to review this

A bunch of additional scored reviews of Marathon have been lodged (w/many more to come) metacritic.com/game/marathon/ "Memorable for its excellent game feel and striking artistic direction, Marathon is a punitive, extreme and exponentially addictive extraction shooter." - IGN France

@Fakeman93841004 @pcgamer That is accurate yes

@pcgamer Let me guess one of the best fps in the history of human civilization but crimson desert has ai slop and is mid.

Marathon review pcgamer.com/games/fps/mara…

@Rageoverrun @Alex_Neverm1nd @phillip52986 We're talking about completely different technologies. Do you think ChatGPT makes enemies run around the map and shoot the player? That's "AI" too.

@Alex_Neverm1nd @phillip52986 That’s like saying breaking and entering is bad, but only when you do it to certain people. Mental gymnastics.

Hmm….🤔 A $750 console beating out a RTX5090 in LOD?! #PS5PRO punching above its weight! 🔥

@Shamrokh00 @Wario64 Not enough goon material in it or what? Play it coward.

@Wario64 No thank you even if it free I won’t play Marathon 😁

Marathon (Steam) is $32.99 at Newegg w/ code EPF4225 buff.ly/zj0CBoQ #ad
