WhenFinal Fantasy 7 Rebirthfirst launched, it was a PS5-exclusive game.
At this point, the PlayStation 5 Pro was not yet on the market, either.
There were two visual parameters: Graphics and Performance.
Now, FF7 Rebirth is on PC.
That means Steam Deck, too.
The PS5 Pro is on the market, so there’s another factor for Sony players to potentially consider.
Square Enix even released a more granular tweak for all versions' Performance Modes.
What does it all mean, and which should you choose?
“Whatever it takes” meanschoppier gameplay.
Draw distance takes a hit with them, and character models are not so great.
To experience Rebirth in all its, well,graphical splendor,do consider Graphics mode.
It does so… adequately, if barely.
The flip side, however, is thatyou’ll likely encounter more “jaggies” throughout the game.
Odd line imaging; the aliasing will just look kind of messy in a lot of environments.
It’s all that greenery; you could really tell the textures have gotten muddier.
It can be downright ugly at times.
After the Grasslands, things get a little easier on the eyes.
Versatility
And here’s themode exclusive to PS5 Pro.
All of this whileusually sticking to 60 fps.
Versatility mode effectively eliminates the other three optionsfrom our consideration.
If you’re comfortable with this sort of granular fare, you should have no trouble at all.
Our advice, then, is tolower the ‘Music Volume’ and ‘Song Volume’whilecranking up the ‘Speech Volume’.
(SFX Volume can go either way, though consider lowering it a tad.)
The rest of your decision-making is going to revolve aroundHUD-related issues.
