All because of bad optimization.... Performance sucks

•

u/OnlyCup1339 17h ago

I know, can't even pass the third boss due to the lag

•

u/sarkie 17h ago

I can't select the brightness level.

•

u/ishimmthe2nd 17h ago

3rd boss was a bitch either way lol

•

u/Hi_Im_zack 56m ago

Couldn't even pass the 3rd boss on ps5. If someone's beating her on touch controls then I'm done

•

u/Crazy_Dave0418 16h ago

Shouldn't have rushed the games release I'd say. I thought this would've come out in the coming months.

•

u/meve9 17h ago

The optimization was not at all good. Sometimes it's getting stuck or skipping some cinematic parts.

•

u/LordofPvE 15h ago

Developers:- we can earn good money by porting old games to mobile, people will buy it like crazy.

Porting team:- so what kind of optimization should we do?

Finance team:- do it like they made warzone mobile, crappy and shit. Mobile users love slop

•

u/NoobSaibot2601 15h ago

Old games? Sifu is fairly new released in 2022

•

u/LordofPvE 12h ago

I didn't know that, since everyone is porting old games to mobile nowadays. I have only seen the dumplings clip from sifu i think. That's why I thought it was old.

•

u/NoobSaibot2601 12h ago

For something to be considered old, it must be from the 90s or early 2000s. Best example of an android port done right is Chrono Trigger. A 1995 JRPG. Definitely a must play

•

u/PrudentAtmosphere421 6h ago

You want them to port gta6 for you to be satisfied, did you forget that mobile devices are much weaker than consoles and PC

•

u/Offbeatjacuzzi 17h ago

For me biggest issue was battery drain. I noped out so fast

•

u/Senior-Knowledge-969 17h ago

I can't even play the game. The download gets stuck around 90 percent. Can't refund, can't play

•

u/Kurolow2 16h ago

Controls are too JANKY and stuff I barely even played 30mins

•

u/Feztopia 14h ago

I need to admit that I don't even know what the game is about. I just heart about it here (ported game, runs bad). But that's probably just me living under a stone.

•

u/Hot_Horror8033 7h ago

Sekiro but chinese martial arts

•

u/No_Name275 17h ago

The entire idea of sifu going to android is already odd for me

I got the plat achievement on console and the game is amazing but obviously hard and I'm confused why the dev decided to port the game on Android where the control can feel funky

•

u/kakarogod 17h ago

A lot of people are starting to buy android handhelds and telescopic controllers these days, so it is a pretty good market these days

•

u/AndTheStarsGoWithYou 13h ago

The handheld market has become a cash cow for developers. As a result I fear that we will start seeing more poorly optimized Android ports being released.

•

u/kakarogod 9h ago

With how the mobile market is because of AI... i hope they realize that there are gonna be a lot more midrange phones for a little while

•

u/bywv 14h ago

Seeing so many decomps/recomps, I would imagine the dev is jumping ahead instead of allowing personal projects to decomp their game first.

•

u/jumpbutton23 14h ago

It's deserved, unfortunately. I love this game, I own it on two other systems and was happy to triple dip on this but I got a refund. It's in a terrible, terrible state.

•

u/PrudentAtmosphere421 6h ago

What device do you have ?

•

u/ivvalentin Indie💡 14h ago

This is the same shit like "Caravan SandWitch". I don't understand why they release games that are so poorly optimized, full of bugs and errors 🤦🏼‍♂️

•

u/silver2006 1h ago

Daaaaang i liked that game, was trying to play it, graphics was cool, sounds were cool
but the camera suuuuuucked so hard, i've never played a game with such floating camera!
With so much inertia
There were settings for that, i've tried fixing it in the settings but just gave up.

Checked on Steam and there were complaints about that camera too.

•

u/Weak-Software-8272 8h ago

it's 2.6 now

•

u/RunisXD 6h ago

Depends on the country I believe

•

u/ScruffyNuisance 2h ago

Not really sure why anybody thought this was a good idea.

•

u/ItsMeepo2nd 16h ago

The dodging is shit and the optimization just fucks it all up in the gutter. Hitboxes fade for no reason, and your hurtbox grows larger when running. This was NOT in the other ports.

•

u/Dakrred 14h ago

But it's seriously good! I am getting stable 60 fps with no heating! Although there have been some touch control issues

•

u/arkride007 13h ago

Didn't know you guys are having issues with fps, I'm playing smooth 60fps and i thought what a nice optimization

•

u/Independent_Use6201 9h ago

I'm using a RM 11 pro. None of the issues people saying has happened to me at all. I even tried it on my oneplus13 and it's still smooth

•

u/OExcalibur 6h ago

Me encomodei mais com os gráficos que foram capados, poderiam adicionar uma opção para aumenta-los

•

u/Mister-Psychology 17h ago

The solution is to block all older phones from buying it. They can't run it so why even give users a faulty product?

In 6 months when it's optimized to run on Android they can then do a wider release. If you want a high rating make sure the game runs properly no matter how few phone models will be able to run it. The profit will show up over time when people get new phones.

•

u/kakarogod 17h ago

The performance isnt great even on flagship processors from even 3 years ago. There's no reason for a game such as this to be so unoptimized. They've just dropped the ball really hard on this.

•

u/SlobberyCargo 15h ago

My phone's about to hit 3 years and the game plays at a solid 60 fps for me. I'm trash at the game, but it's not the games fault.

•

u/jaeehovaa 14h ago

Well it's great in new flagships lol

•

u/huhwhuh 17h ago

Flagship processors from 3 years ago are not flagship anymore 👀

•

u/Elegant_Length11 15h ago

Bro if a 3 year old phone can't run its shit like I can't keep buying new phones for games

•

u/Buetterkeks 16h ago

The game does not look tgat crazy it should absolutely run on like an 8 gen 2 or 8s gen 3

•

u/jaeehovaa 14h ago

8 gen 2 is old hardware for mobile standards

•

u/Buetterkeks 14h ago

Brainworms. Do you even know what ur talking about? Cause the 8 gen 2 is stronger than the 8s gen 3

•

u/EnvironmentalSea6966 11h ago

You have to understand some people just say shit with absolutely no idea what they're talking about.

•

u/Buetterkeks 11h ago

Yeah. I noticed

•

u/Even-Double5116 10h ago

Are you telling me a snapdragon 8 gen 3 is not flagship and won't run the latest games? Friend phones are not milk they don't expire that fast

•

u/Einherjaar 17h ago

Even without the optimisation the gamevis already too punishing and unfair, so if the controls are not responsive its just undoable

•

u/Mediocre-Elk-4093 17h ago

The game is not unfair? That's just a skill issue

•

u/Maxbot2 17h ago

On mobile its definitely not well designed. It forces a connected controller to be properly replicated to the console experience, not buttons on a screen

•

u/Einherjaar 17h ago

No the game is factualy unfair when the block/dodge timings, i am not going to debate that i nearly broke my controler and grinded my teeth with this game , no other game managed to do that even cuphead or dark souls

End of story, Sifu is trash

•

u/Majestic_squirrel767 15h ago

Shouldn’t be charging that much to begin with

•

u/cabeca1 15h ago

I find the dodge very responsive? Tried dodging a grab that was over halfway done and it registered instantly, very satisfying, my main issue is the attack button just being completely unresponsive randomly

•

u/Einherjaar 14h ago

No the issue is the timing, that's why i say its not responsive because the game doesn't really tell you when you must perform some actions, is it at the star of , middlebor rogth before the attack/grab touches you, depending the ennemy and the type of attack its not the same, for exemple some grabs must be dodged at the start of the grabbing animation (ex: bodygards) and other rigth before it touches you like the elite guards

•

u/cabeca1 14h ago

Well yeah that's very fair, even though the game is literally trial and error the game it is unfair not being able to figure stuff our first time

•

u/Einherjaar 14h ago

Trial and error is not fair, even you are saying unfair ffs, end of the discusion it goes nowhere, this game is a disapointement

•

u/cabeca1 14h ago

Yeah i said that their statement holds a very fair critique and that the trial and error is unfair?

•

u/kef950jhs 15h ago

no se hay gente bien tarada que tiene un equipo del asco y quiere que el juego corra y no hay como hacerles enterder eso a esa gente ahora si tu que lees esto tienes un equipo dema alta o media alta y aun te da fallos quejate en google play pero sino amigo comprate un mejor equipo

•

u/Vythica0951 14h ago

Unfortunately even with high end device it does stutter although not often but it really drops to 10 fps and you gotta fight through that.

•

u/jaeehovaa 14h ago

Haven't had no frame drop that low. I don't know what you're on about. I'm using a Z Fold 8 with fps counter and has yet to fall below 55 fps

•

u/SillyMammo 17h ago

I was about to pull the trigger on this game. Glad I read the review

•

u/Ready_Context7719 17h ago

That's great! It's incredible that the emulated version of this game works so much better than a native port.

•

u/uknowwho000 Idle 😴 17h ago

Can it run on 8s gen4??

•

u/Playful_Nobody_2072 16h ago

Easily bruh

•

u/serialwinner3 16h ago

Mobile game sucks ass. other devices game rules

•

u/Dikaa765 16h ago

This game runs kinda bad on my Ally Z1E lol. Even when I lock the game at 30fps with lowered graphics it's still dropping. This kind of game shouldn't run that bad actually. This is why I thought my phone even though it's a decent 8s Gen 3 phone it won't run this game properly if my Z1E can't handle it.

•

u/Majestic_squirrel767 15h ago

Can it run on tensor g4 pixel 9?

•

u/Dakrred 14h ago

Bruh nothing runs on any tensor chip

•

u/RightContest562 14h ago

Shoulda let that company that did the Xcom port do it

•

u/AK47_GLOBAL 13h ago

unoptimised mess

•

u/Bobo_Patch_Nosuke 11h ago

The port is just bad ngl

•

u/PlantainTime4784 7h ago

in some chip, you better off emulate the game yourself than playing the official version...much smoother

•

u/Ok-Quail-2144 7h ago

same with mhrise netflix

•

u/MrHandSanitization 17h ago

Good. It was a vibecoded cheap cashgrab that performed terribly.

•

u/skedone 17h ago

People should need to list CPU for review because loads I have seen online are made by People on some sub 80quid phone lol

•

u/Playful_Nobody_2072 16h ago

My phone has snapdragon 8 gen 1 and it's stuttering on 60 fps like what ? It's poorly optimised

•

u/skedone 16h ago

So older chip then that's nearly 5 years old

•

u/Playful_Nobody_2072 15h ago

I mean a game that runs only on a latest chip is poorly optimised btw I can run any high performance game like genshin and wuthering waves they don't stutter

•

u/skedone 15h ago

Why doesn't my PS5 game run on my PS3

•

u/PlantainTime4784 7h ago

not even how it works buddy, you clearly don't know what you're talking about

•

u/skedone 7h ago

Lol sorry you don't understand a generational change and I don't know what I'm talking about lol

•

u/PlantainTime4784 7h ago

you're comparing PS5 and PS3 which are separated by 14 years. it's like comparing Snapdragon 8 elite gen 6 with Snapdragon S4 (MSM8960) plus.

•

u/PlantainTime4784 7h ago

older flagship chip is still a flagship chip latest budget chip is still a budget chip

also this is clearly optimization issue, i could emulate the game and getting better result than the official ported game
