So many returning characters, from all of the previous sagas, so many references, so much well inserted fan service, not just for the sake of it, but with meaning to the story and recognition of characters and heroes of past games…it’s all amazing, there are no words to describe it, only possible to appreciate it when playing it. This game has been a joy to play, from beginning to end, I was stuck on my chair everyday as much time as I could squeeze in there.
You can settle for a lower resolution, or disable MSAA altogether, and maybe HBAO+, if you don’t want to see the FPS ever go below 60 at the settings I listed with that GPU but yeah…the game is more demanding than the previous one simply because we get to travel to many, many new places, some old too, that have more performance demanding assets under certain graphical settings like MSAA, Shadows, o HBAO+. Only in areas where there are lots of trees, foliage and vegetation, and this game has quite a lot more than CS III, the FPS dropped below 60. On my Ryand RTX 3060 Ti, I’ve mostly played at 2160p DSR (4K downsampled to my 1080p screen), Max Settings and MSAA set to 2x, with unlimited draw distance. On the performance side of things, as usual, this port is very well done, like the previous three games, and it runs pretty similarly to CS III, but in CS IV there are more varied environments, especially in the open, with more vegetation and shadows. The best way to truly enjoy this game, and in part the previous one, is having played the Sky and Crossbell sagas which, if you’re a fan (and you probably are, if you’re reading this) you also probably have done that, or in the process of, at least. In short: this game’s really well done, it’s an epic conclusion to a very long saga, as we know, and this is in my opinion the best game in the Cold Steel saga, but doesn’t mean the others are bad, this one simply is even better.
I’ll try to make this review as brief as possible (I had a much longer one but it had too much info about the game, don’t want to post any big I’ll try to make this review as brief as possible (I had a much longer one but it had too much info about the game, don’t want to post any big spoilers).
