Star Blade There are also a ton of settings to tweak, from simple but effective difficulty options to HUD display settings and more.I’ve collected some great settings you’ll want to consider tweaking Star Blade From game settings to visual adjustments based on your preferences.
Forced: Set auto-pickup to on
Star BladeThere are some Buncha items that you need to remove from the crates. By default, you need to hold R2 to pick them up. That’s stupid; don’t do that.
Instead, you should navigate to Settings > Game in the menu and turn on Auto Loot Items.
Story mode aids, explanations
eve, Star BladeThe protagonist has a Ton combos and complex combat moves. Story Mode is the game’s easier difficulty level, and it includes an assist option called Action Assist. If you’re new to action games, you may want to leave this option open. When activated, you’ll receive a looping prompt that slows down time at certain points in combat, allowing you to time your movements more carefully.
If you just want to turn the difficulty down a bit from normal to get the hang of the game before jumping into regular difficulty (you can change the difficulty at any time, it will just take you back to where you last saved), I recommend turning Action Assist on closure.
controller speaker
some sounds come from Star Blade will fire out of the DualSense controller at default settings. So cute if you wish your gamepad looked like a Fisher-Price toy. Otherwise, you can turn it off as the battle will erupt with various sword sounds, which may distract you. Navigate to Settings > Sound > Controller Speakers to change this setting.

On a related note, if you find the feedback from Adaptive Triggers distracting, you can also turn off Adaptive Triggers in the Controls settings.
Vibration settings
Star Blade I really like making the DualSense controller vibrate.While this may be interesting, I found it to be small Too distracting for me during presentation. I chose to lower the vibration to 7. You can find the vibration slider in Controls > Vibration.
Other controller settings worth tweaking
There are a number of other controller settings you may want to modify, including a slider for aim correction and a toggle for “Auto-lock on attack” (I prefer to leave it on).

In Accessibility, scrolling all the way down also displays the option for Quick Time Event (QTE) automatic success. Turn this option on because it’s 2024.
Head-up display options
You have three main options for displaying the HUD Star Blade: Completely off, on at specific times, and always on. Power gamers may want to turn on the latter. However, I don’t recommend turning off the HUD completely. Dynamic (default) is a very good setting.
But that’s not all! You can change the size of the HUD and even apply a drop shadow. If you are playing the game on a large screen, I recommend setting the HUD to “Large”. It doesn’t take up much space and is easier to read this way.
Graphics options comparison
Most people can use the default graphics settings Star Blade. Out of the box, the game will put you in “Balanced Mode,” which targets a 60FPS frame rate and moves resolutions between 1080p and 1440p. Please note that it is not a fully stable 60 frames per second image. You’ll get drops, but based on what’s available in the current demo, the experience is still relatively close to 60FPS most of the time.
Performance mode will give you 1440p resolution and an almost constant 60 frames per second. This might be a good option when the full game releases and you just want to focus on your combat skills, but I found the graphics looked too soft for my taste, especially for a first-time experience.
Finally, Resolution Mode reduces the pixel density of your 4K TV, but it does result in 30 frames per second performance. Star Blade Probably not the kind of game you’re willing to sacrifice framerate for. The lower frame rate felt worse in the demo’s dim, gray environments.
However, when this happens, views on this may change PS5 Pro Finally arrived.
Other visual settings worth tweaking
You might also want to adjust the motion blur and the length of Eve’s ponytail. While Eve has incredibly long hair by default, which does look cool, it can also be a bit distracting. Not to mention it’s so sticky. Girls need a new brand of conditioner. Eve’s hair options are located in Settings > Game.
I also like to turn the motion blur down a bit. You can find it (along with a slider for camera shake intensity) in Accessibility.
Star BladeThe demo is fairly short, but it gives you a good idea of what to expect when the game launches in late April. We will update these settings to reflect the full game when it launches.As a final setup tip, I recommend turning down any music included in the game and, I don’t know, listening denim job of the year Or something else instead.
