Switchback: Graphics Quality

Can we get a response about the extremely underwhelming graphics quality? The launch trailer that just came out on YouTube just one hour ago advertises graphics far surpassing what customers can expect in their new headsets.

This is fraud. Plain and simple.

Please release a statement before the end of the day on how you plan to ameliorate this situation.

The only way I see to do that is by hiring a team of competent developers who know how to make the game look on par with the other next-gen titles on this headset. 

However, even this solution will take time and customers have no way of knowing when or if a patch will ever be released. So, in the mean time, you must request that Sony give out refunds for any customers including those who have downloaded the game.

I really hope you will do the right thing. This feels like the Cyberpunk debacle all over again.

  The first game I bought for my PSVR 2 and I was already disappointed, the game starts on a train with a horrible scale of characters, very small, after that I am thrown to a loading screen, I thought this no longer existed on PS5, I start with some weapons with a very bad shot sound, it sounds like a toy gun, that's when my tour begins, in a world where the graphics are formed practically in your face, the textures of the characters and the scenarios don't seem like something from this generation, and yes something between PlayStation 2 and 4, a lot of pop in happening right in front of you is a shame for a PS5 game, hours ago I fought for the guns loaded, I honestly regret having bought this game.

  Foveated rendering should be implemented as it could free up room for better textures etc. The NPC graphics in the train, Subtitles, he Fire and the Loading screen process should really tested so closely before releasing the next fix.
  Please don't do the same mistake as Cyberpunk 2077 at Launch and look carefully for all players feedback.
  If this will take time then we strongly suggest to get a refund like what CDProjekt Red did for Cyberpunk game.
