You’ll end up using guns and swords as you face off against creatures who stalk the night. David is thankfully skilled with the weapons. As you investigate the case, you’ll learn that there’s something not exactly human behind it all. In addition to walking, you also have access to a car. You’re free to move through the town as you see fit.
The game takes place in a eight kilometer squared sandbox world that features weather and time-based changes. Taking control of David (and his split-personality character Jeter), you find yourself placed in a recreation of a classic American west town, right down to stoplights and paved roads. Only problem is, Jeter is a person who exists only in David’s mind… Among the not-E3/Summer Game Fest 2022 announcements was the reveal of a Deadly Premonition 2 PC port. He’s not alone, though, as three peacekeepers from the town support David as he attempts to solve the case. Has the legendary Raincoat Killer returned? To investigate, the FBI has sent agent David Young Henning to the town to investigate. In Eurogamer's own review we revealed that "from a technical perspective, Deadly Premonition 2 is a disgrace", adding "its frame rate could charitably be described as inconsistent, but out in the open world, it's a migraine-inducing single-digit slideshow compounded by stutters and seconds-long hitches".A horror title by Marvelous Entertainment, this game begins when the body of a young girl named Anna Graham is found one particularly rainy morning in the woods outside the town of Rainy Woods. "The old frame rate would actually give me a headache but I just played for an hour doing side quests and it felt much better."ĭeadly Premonition 2 received its first (and very much-needed) post-launch patch on Switch at the end of July, taking an initial pass at improving the game's abysmal frame rate, while also making a range of tweaks designed to remedy its heavily criticised handling of a transgender character.Īs Matt summarised at the time, the long-awaited sequel to developer Hidetaka "Swery" Suehiro's cult classic mystery adventure also came under fire at release for elements of its script in which transgender character Lena Dauman is misgendered and deadnamed. But performance outdoors is a lot more playable," said a reply. "It's playable now though! I've been waiting for a patch like this to continue my playthrough, so I'm excited to dive back in."
"Definitely an improvement though performance and load times are still what some people might call inexcusably poor," replied another player. I still get micro stutters outside but the frame rate itself is so much better. "Holy sh-t the frame rate outdoors is night and day," said a Reddit thread which publicised that patch 1.0.3 is now available (thanks, MyNintendoNews). Deadly Premonition 2's latest patch, 1.0.3, looks to have addressed the more egregious issues plaguing the sequel's framerate, especially when players are taking their characters outdoors.
