Biomutant WEN? Biomutant NOW! The DF Tech Review You've Been Waiting For!

It's been a long time coming but finally - FINALLY! - Digital Foundry can share its in-depth analysis on Biomutant. Yes, there was a massive Twitter storm last year on PS5 vs Series X, rendering resolutions and what-not, but only today, on April 1st 2022, can our findings finally be revealed.

This Dynamic Frame Rate technology is amazing. The frame rate constantly adapts to the cost of rendering. Difficult scene with heavy combat and effects? No problem, DFR will dynamically adjust the frame rate to match the content. Looking at the sky box doing nothing? DFR will give you a huge frame rate boost.

The stutters are not a bug, they're a feature! They let the action pause for a microsecond to see how you react to something you can't control for a fraction of a second. THIS IS THE FUTURE I TELLS YA! It truly makes you feel like Biomutant.

Something I noticed is that on this game, performance is tied to its frame rate: the faster your performance the higher the framerate. It's kinda weird at times.

Alex: "Well, it's rather simple John"

John: "Ok, thank you Alex, that's enough"

🤣🤣🤣

Perfect 30 fps? Bleh. Perfect 60 fps? Bleh. Variable 22 to 83 fps? Now that's what I call dynamic gaming. So many types of frames that you'll almost never get bored.

The "wen NOW" series needs to be a thing

This game would have been saved if it had per-object-motionblur.

[volatilelyle]

Please do this every year. It's something I never knew I wanted. This is gold

„Most people have all 3 systems“, sometimes I actually start thinking maybe this is true for their patreons, love the video guys!

[lonhawk]

This is by far one of the best reviews I've ever witnessed. Truly a classic

Best Review this year so far
Loved Alex's perspective at 4:17

[MrJagermeister]

This was the most terrifying thing I’ve ever seen. I bought this game a year ago on PS5 and obviously didn’t play it because I couldn’t see it, but now seeing it at 6000% zoom? Glad I didn’t waste my time on this blurry mess.

[FerreiraFredes]

This is definitely one of the tech reviews ever made, kudos.

[Alex-x]

"dynamic framerate" funniest thing ive heard in a sec.

[razk]

I am positively enthralled by the sheer amount of bespoke discreet'ness in this review. Fascinating

[lordfunkatron]

The pause showing the 'classic' subway texuture and the "way more grass" label had me rolling. Hoefully next year we can see more technical marvels like this one

[grueani]

Brilliant video! :-) One criticism though: Next time would suggest to bring in a 20, 000% zoom just to be really sure that we can see all the glorious 4k detail

"Cast a wider net, catch more fish" 🤣

[MattBee]

Loving those dynamic frame rates, what a selling point! :D

[darthwiizius]

Great insight from the Swedish dude, he was saying exactly what everyone was thinking and he even somehow knew what we were playing on our stereos.
