Stellar Blade’sdemo is out now, and players have been enjoying a glimpse of what is seemingly one of the most anticipated action-adventure exclusive titles for the PS5. The game’s combat system and character design may pull you in, but there are a few players who are having trouble with the game’s visual/display.

Quite a few players are experiencing slow response and input lag with the game’s combat system and frame rates. Though this isn’t a major problem, the learning can feel twice as challenging when the controller’s input isn’t matching the game’s parry system.

If you’re facing troubles with the game’s slow response, try this

The game is naturally quick and rich in atmosphere, making many instances cinematic. However, even players with good monitors (that support up to 240 Hz) are facing a slight glitch that makes things feel a bit slow. Not only is this a visual issue, it hinders the input from the controller, making the combat feel even more challenging.

The game’s official page suggests a simple change; turning your TV’s Game Mode option on. This may seem like a non-serious approach to fixing the problem, but might just work wonders for your gameplay experience.

If you notice that your controls are slow to respond, we recommend turning on TV’s “Game Mode”. The response will be more immediate😃#StellarBlade#PS5

There’s another big tip by user Fendera that suggests turning off Film Grain and using a custom button layout. It’s likely that the developers will suggest more solutions, or come up with a fix soon enough.

Please consider the following adjustments 🙏🏻– Custom button layout– Film Grain (toggle to disable this)– Dolby Atmos support (something is off with the surround)Otherwise the demo has been very great so far! Loving the different performance mode options.

Until there’s more news on a possible long-term fix, these small tweaks will have to work. The combat system can feel a bit difficult considering the tight parry system, and this input lag may make things work.

Stellar Blade shows quite the promise, despite ongoing problems

Stellar Bladearrives later this month on April 26. However, players can witness the first boss battle in the game’s demo right now, along with many story bits and combat scenarios. Overall, the demo has been receivinga positive response despite the controversiesregarding the game’s character design choices and visual/input bugs.

However, even with a gorgeous setting and a unique art direction,Stellar Blade’scombat system can drive a lot of players away. Like many melee combat games, this one too uses a parry system along with different combos. The thing is, the parry system is very precise, and asks you to have the reflexes of someone who has played games likeSekiro: Shadows Die TwiceandLies of Pbefore.

Even if you’re new to the game, there’s a lot to learn here, and it’ll be interesting to see how different players pick upStellar Bladeand experience yet another PS5 exclusive that shows promise for the platform in the long run.
