Thoughts on the Series X (Gaming)

I think the HDR has several problems. I finally turned it off, and I've been happier.

Thanks for the early report. Hope to have mine in time for the D2 upgrade.


Not to be a dick, but it might be your TV and not be Bungie's fault.

While a TV might be able to process an HDR input, if the TV is shitty, it can actually end up looking worse than an SDR input. Believe it or not, the HDR10 standard doesn't actually mandate a maximum brightness for the display. So if your TV doesn't get very bright and has bad blacks, your HDR is going to look grey, washed out, and shitty.

Does it generally look worse across any game you try? Or is it just Des2ny?

Just Destiny for me, although I actually like the visuals in a Pop art sort of way.
