    Given that it’s only replacing a handful of missing CPU instructions with slower native code, performance is within reasonable expectations. Impressive. It won’t make your PS4 into a PS5, obviously.

    On a PS4 Pro, "Sons of Sparta" runs at about 40 FPS

    Thanks so much for your well considered response. Your final sentence sums things up perfectly. I agree.

    What are you pushing back on? I'm not sure. Hopefully you don't think crowdsourcing a witch hunt is cool.

    The point is you don't know, and may never know, the reality. Any version of events you fabricate without knowing details for certain can only be less true than the version the developer offers, which may be nothing. So your version of events could be worth less than nothing. Which is quite something.

    I appreciate your goal/crusade, hopefully you get the facts you are looking for. Sadly I don't think it's realistic to expect everybody else to approach this exactly the way you would like them to.

    Thanks for the clarification. Personally, I see the discussion as front loaded so it can only really go one way. You've already made up your mind.

    From my perspective, I'm a developer that has had similar, unfounded accusations directed my way. The most recent one, I had to resort to legal action. It's such a huge distraction from the act of making games, which is what I love to do every day.

    All this to say that there is more than discussion at stake. There is the reputation and livlihood of developers of games you are enjoying. Based on a feeling.

    Crowdsourcing a witch hunt is... not cool. Either trust the developer and play, or don't and move on. That should be the end of it. It could be that you never know, and that's OK. Everything else...

    Crowdsourcing a witch hunt is... not cool. Either trust the developer and play, or don't and move on. That should be the end of it. It could be that you never know, and that's OK. Everything else is supposition, imagination, guesswork, defamation, harassment. Be excellent to each other.

    Bubble Bobble is such a perfect recipe. So much going on yet all perfectly balanced. Still one of my all time top 5 greats. Don't make me list them!
