There is no doubt that Crysis Remastered failed to live up to the hype it created. While the updated visuals are decent, the performance of the game on almost every platform is abysmal. Now, the latest update released today reduced the game's performance on PS4 even more, for stability sake, of course. Maybe the game needed one more delay, the first one didn't do much.
