#Control #QuantumBreak #Comparison - Ігри
Control was a very, VERY pleasant surprise for me, I was expecting nothing from this game and OH BOY, I'm glad I was wrong about, awesome game, congratulations Remedy
Got it a few days ago, was in the same shoes lol
Agreed
You think I should pick it up? Is it good on the xbox one S?
I just got this game for free on Xbox game pass Control is way better than Death Stranding
@@Cloticz yes its so good, im on xbox one s as well
At this point, I'm ready for anything Remedy decides to make. All their games have something unique to offer while executing at a very high level.
Glad to see they are thriving. Too bad they sold Max Payne and how its now ruined tho.
@@realamericannegro977 I personally liked Max Payne 3 followed by Max Payne 1 and then two.
Remedy aren't game makers, they are story tellers. And they know how to bend the boundaries of their games to fit their story. Even the tropes of their games are written to put something from a book (Alan Wake), a tv show (Quantum Break), or a physic abuse (Control) into their game, just to make the gameplay fit the story perfectly.
The gameplay of their games is always sync with their stories. Look how the slowlyness of Alan Wake is just the same than reading a book, how the quick'n'stop rhythm of Quantum Break is like watching a TV Show, and how the movements and interactions in Control is like... A video game.
It's impressive how they use a common support to mold it into something new, just to put their stories in adequacy
with their gameplay, and all this without breaking the 'rules' of the initial support, or breaking the basic 'rules' of gameplay. They are truly geniuses.
Wyte Knight I’m sorry but Alan Wake is not a slow game. It’s a tense action shooter that barely gives you room to breathe
@@EggEnjoyer At some point, yeah, like when you are reading a good book.
There are times when you read normally, and others times when the book becomes so interesting, engaging, that you forget to breathe, that you forget everything else around you. And, the next moment, you roam freely, exploring the details, following the story, or reading the lore is the menu.
Quantum Break is THE MOST underrated game of all times !
It was short in story ! YES ! But the game is amazing ! don't know why people dislike the game
What do you all means with tv cut?
Doesn't play the game yet
@Meher Chaithanya it is skipable cutscene?
@arno victor The TV cutscenes were not a part of the game size. You stream all of that footage from their server like Netflix.
arno victor every time I turn on my Xbox I’m online
The combat and gunplay were great, as expected from Remedy, and that was it. The time manipulating abilities had much more potential for interesting gameplay but they didn't utilize it.
This makes me want to replay through Quantum Break for the third time.
Really wish it had more sales so they'd make a sequel. Such a good story and the gameplay was so fun. Less tv more gameplay would've been great
PaNDaPowerRULEZ same
Same here
@@DWAC I loved the tv stuff but damn it was such a huge game! Therefore a very lengthy download. If they had just not tried to pull the wool over our heads it might have gotten a sequel but people were pissed when they found out the graphics were downgraded. They didnt even xbox x enhance it! Great game though. I still love it. The grainy scenes when you move too fast is a bit upsetting.
Facts
I played Control for the first time without expecting so much, now is one of the most favorite games I've ever played. Story is nice, technologies are incredible well achieved and scenarios are just stunning. Very pleasant to play, play with objects and offices are extremely
de-stressing. 10/10
Good game but it made me feel alone at times 🤟🏾 would give it a 9+ if it had like a funny companion on your side at all times but I guess it's an 8.5 for me.
9/10 The map fucking sucks
@@despacitodaniel801 I do have to agree, it's beautiful and enthralling to look at BUT ITS CONFUSING AF
@@rey4874 Im pretty sure that was their objective 😂
Story is nice? wow. literally the shittiest story in a game.
The lighting in Remedy games is always incredible, they are the master.
dear god this channel this underrated, keep up the good work m8,am here since the begining and i love every video you make
I legit thought he had at least 500k subscribers smh
Super underrated i'm in the video game industry and i really love this guy and his comparison
Everyone on any small youtuber they like :P me included :P
Nigga he has 150k subs
@Dr. Loomis underrated as in not enough attention
Let's all give a moment to the amazing sound design of Quantum Break whenever you slow down time or use any time related powers.
I love both games, would absolutely LOVE a sequel to Quantum Break
Playing Control was a real treat. So much detail in the environments! I love how they're destructible too! You can tell a lot of work and passion went into making these games, and it easily became a favorite. So good! And the connection to Alan Wake made it that much better!
Remedy has a great track record of making phenomenal games! Control is another instant classic!
Control is trash and forgotten. Poor sales and no interest in the worst gameplay ever seen. Control is trash and so is remedy. Can't wait until they go bankruptcy.
@@TheREALHugo4 perhaps your thinking is trash?
Wishing for yet another cutting-edge independent development house to go out of business and for people to lose their jobs and livelihoods, while trying to make something that the fans will enjoy and simultaneously supporting their families is EXACTLY what is wrong with the gaming community and makes gaming culture so toxic to begin with.
You ever wonder why people look at gaming and the people who play them as immature and out of touch with reality? You're response may be a good answer to that quation.
@@TheREALHugo4 someone is salty
@@TheREALHugo4 LOLZ no reply
Mr. Snake L
QB was such an underrated game. Control so far is amazing. Can't wait to beat it as well.
Hey! Great comparison! But you didn't disabled upscaling option in Quantium Break, so it was running in 720p upscaled to 1080p. That is the reason why QB was so blurry. Keep up good work!
Matúš Barta yeah ik I was so angry when he did that, like what kind of tech youtuber doesn’t know upscaling is horrible
yeah. this was such a missunderstood comparison
Thought something was off. I just played it for the first time on my 720p tv and it looked way better than what he showed.
I think he did that on purpose to make QB look bad. That seems to be the only aim of this video smh
Whenever Remedy releases a game, it has some of the best visuals, physics, gunplay, sound and story on the market.
Max Payne 2 is one of the best looking games from the 6th generation, with compromises needed to fit the game on Xbox and PS2.
Alan Wake is one of the best looking games on 7th gen (aside from some blocky character models), that was on improved a lot on PC.
Both QB and Control are some of the best looking games on 8th gen. Control on PC even more so.
Oh really go play Minecraft with ray tracing and then you will understand the power of the rtx.
not even close to best looking game
Frostbite engine
@@Legion849 RTX only makes the game look good visually in the lighting department. The textures are pretty much the same and the other stuff is outdated. So that doesn't really compare because we're not making an RTX-only comparison.
They didn’t make max Payne 2
Strange how you didn't show off the levitation or rock shield from control.
I want Max Payne 4 developed by Remedy not Rockstar...
But why rockstar is a better ip by far
@@bullykojima3232 lol. Obviously you have no idea what you are talking about. First two max payne games were developed by remedy and third max payne was made by rockstar. Which one you like better? The first two parts were masterpieces. Damn, i still remember that piano song. It had amazing theme, story, characters and music and it was dark which i loved. Max payne 3 was just meh. It didnt have good story or dark theme or whatever. Gunplay was fun, but story was nothing special. Thats why people want remedy to make and not rockstar. Also i would rather have max payne 1 and 2 remade like resident evil 2 was than to have max payne 4.
@@vasilije94 well i choose rockstar because they are in a better form than remedy at this point of time
Remedy known for : destructable enviroment
Rockstar Known for : Indestructable Trees and wall🖒

I love your Kermit voice, seriously.
I was listening to this dude and scrolling through the comments wondering why his voice sounds familiar then I saw your comment instantly, lol.
Control is an excellent game. Intriguing story, beautiful visuals and great combat.
Man why is your channel so underrated my god, man your comparisons are on point and better than most bigger channels ❤️👊
I personally loved both games, both had amazing graphics, a well written and solid story and to top it all off with smooth gunplay. I don’t know why people didn’t like quantum break, really fun!
Exactly also I saw your tweet on Remedy's photo mode announcement. Thanks for making them aware of the issues.
Vipul Gupta that’s coincidental, well yeah I want them to have the best game made by them yet
@@timoplays478 Coincidental, after playing Control for a week I'm always suspicious.
quantum break was microsoft exclusive, of course would get all the hate possible.
@@Undead117 lmao, ikr
Quantum Break was one of the best looking games back then.
still is
Being a tech nut it always drew me to it but I was turned off by the live action "episodes" breaking up pacing, I loved control tho just looking for someone to give me a solid recommendation on quantum break
Great video. Thanks for your time in making these!!
Woah! I had forgotten how great Quantumbreak looked.
At 3:43 that is insanely real looking.
Except for the blurry letters.
TheGuy OverThere it's the Ray tracing I bet
KP Delaney it isn’t, since the guy said he’ll not be using it
Difference:
Quantum break 60fps
Control 10fps
LEDISthebest 😂😂😂😂 so true
Hahahaahha yes man!
both run great, if you get stutters in control, there's a fix for that on the internet.
Lol its actually well optimised and reaches 60 easy with the lowest rtx cards
@@user-kz2sc9rx4d with ray tracing the rtx 2060 can't keep 35 fps on ultra
Always appreciate the work you put in these detailed comparisons. They are very interesting, keep up the great work and never stop, we need you to showcase how graphics in games improve with each passing year
Your comparison videos are always amazing. ❤️
Control is probably the biggest 180 I've ever had playing a game. I really wanted to like it, but just couldn't get into it much on my first attempt. Revisited it later and ended up falling in love with it. There's definitely still stuff in it that annoys me or just stuff I think could be better, but overall it was a positive experience.
Sometimes I watch game reviews and whatnot from different channels because I like more perspectives on a game I might be interested in. But yours is the only game review channel I'm subscribed to. These 'Direct comparisons' are well-made and fun to watch! Back to the topic at hand, Control's sounds appear to be more 'closed' and muffled to my ears than Quantum Break's. As for the visuals, Control is (of course) better, and as you say, flames and explosions seem a bit more realistic. Keep up the good work, Nick!
Quantum breaks combat was so fun! I remember being able to stop time for a little bit, and it felt like I was Quicksilver. I haven't played any of Control yet, but I want to try it out.
Quantum Break's powers seem like more fun to use.
Indeed.
They're okay. Some of them are cool in the beginning, but by the end of the game it throws enemies at you that basically ignore all of your powers. Then the game fucking sucks.
JZStudios Damn, that sounds awful. I was thinking of picking it up because Control runs awful for me despite meeting the recommended specs. I also love games with time powers.
@@JZStudiosonline so you're saying that they are more fun in quantum break but also much weaker?
@@jgsource552 No. I haven't played Control to directly compare, but it often takes your powers away from you. QB also has a time freeze bubble that you "shoot" at enemies, but for some reason I could never use it reliably so I ended up just never using it.
Hey man! Great video, just a little sidenote, in Quantum Break the upscaling option on, somehow reduces the graphical quality, i´m no expert on technical aspects but looks better with the upscaling turned off. Keep it up! i loved the F1 direct comparison! Cheers!
4:58 looks like CG coming to life. I spent an hour just walking around the first time I played the game, RT implementation is great.
You are awesome Nick! Thanks for your videos
your channel is one of the best for comparison, nicely done video once again ! And what the hell with film grain ? These 2 games are grainy enough even without film grain lol
For quantum break, it has some weird upscaling on pc that's turned on by default.
This runs the game at a lower resolution, but performance is so much better
5:01
Assuming your computer can handle the task

@@completelyhelpless3962 Frames per second squared. The fps is continuously accelerating.
Quantum Break was one of my favorite Xbox games when it released. Still is. Underrated in my opinion. Control has been very fun too. Really like the physics.
Control all the way. One of my all time favorite games.
Same
Lol, Control sold less copies than any recent Far Cry games, which have been super stale and reskins of Far Cry 3. Even the games that aren't very well received make more money than Control lmao
Can u do Black Mesa vs Half-Life original Direct Comparison? (Or later to do that because Black Mesa is still in early access game)
Absolutely. But like you said, I'm waiting for the full release to do that analysis
@Gavin Townsley only 2 xen chapter beta was release (full game will have 6 xen chapter)
@Gavin Townsley once xen chapters release, Black Mesa will be nearly twice as long as HL1
@@naturesquad9174 *2 Xen chapters beta (The first chapter is xen and second chapter is gonarch's lair)
Quantum Break was such an amazing Game!
Love the Live-Action Series
After my time with control I would have to say Quantum break was much better. Alan wake beats both though.
@Nathan Miller we present Quantum Break
Yes I loved Quantum Break so much more than control. All the different environments really sold it for me.
I loved both game, I'm having a blast with Control at the moment.
Thanks for an interesting comparison between these two games.
Quantum has a better sound where gunfights are concerned. Not so much in that the sound is more realistic, I think both games are pretty much equal in that respect, but Control's gunshot sounds during fights sound as if the shooting was recorded in a concealed space. The handgun in the Control scene almost sounded as if there was a weak silencer attached to her gun, and particularly the last scene sounded as if it was taking place within a different kind of area with bullets ricocheting off walls made of different material than what was present in the space where it took place in the game. I think it was the middle part of the Control shooting scenes that sounded as if there was a slight echo sound that wouldn't have been in such a space in real life.
I agree with your take on the closeup details of their faces and, of course, their hair. However, there is a certain weakness that goes with so much visible clarity of a game character's face: It is easier to see what is missing in making their faces look completely real. With a blurred picture as we see in Quantum Break, we don't get a chance to point out what is missing in terms of detail realism. And what's more, when we play the game we don't watch pictures in still or slow motion, we are too busy with anticipating the following pictures that appear to be in motion (because the time between each frame is so short).
Finally, there are the jumping motions. Yes, the player character in Quantum Break appears more clumsy in some of his jumps, but this also makes him appear a good deal more realistic than I think is the case with the Control player character. There were times in Control where it looked as if she had been moved a bit ahead in frozen position during a jump, to allow for her jump to seem farther than it could possibly have been in reality.

Edit: Corrected the indentation between paragraphs issue that still persists.
I beat Quantum Break last month and now I'm 5 hours into Control. The game is a beauty with Ray tracing turned on. I'm playing with all the settings maxed at 4k. Both games are great and underrated.
That's i t, I'm subbing you magnificent bastard. Your work is incredible
Did not expect this but I welcome it.
Good stuff bro. Subbed!
I beat Control, LOVED IT. Realized I've owned QB yet never beat it. Just beat Act 4 and loving that too. Control definitely is in upgrade but depending on what kind of gamer you are would reflect your preference.
I think I had more fun with the Quantum Break battle system. Saying a lot too. Although as a whole, I prefer Control.
Did you make sure to turn off the upscale option in Quantum Break? It's near the bottom of the menu...
Turn that off and play it @ 4k ultra settings it looks incredible! 🤯
i havent played Quantum break but Control is fucking amazing, the experience is so surreal and unique
Quantum break is better play it when u can
Idf understand in control and tbh at the end i was really getting bored, in my opinion quantum break’s story is better.
@@evilaya5908 I just beat Control the other day. Is quantum break that good?
@@h3llboyyy407 yes
Quantum break is better except for the graphics
It’s so cool to see remedy’s genre range. From action noir shooters like Max Payne 2 to the Haunting Survival Horror game Alan Wake and now Mind Bending Sci-Fi shooters like Quantum Break and Control.
Man I can spend my whole day watching this channel
I love both games, they are underrated games. Both story and gameplay is amazing. Really love it.
The only sound for me quantum break had better was explosion
But it is more realistic that the barrel explodes immediately on impact which it does in Control. Hence why there is not as loud "aftershock" in Control.
I am Subscriber of Nick930 Channel from November 2018 ..
Nick you are Doing very Good and I Love your Videos ....
Your Videos are very Unique and I have seen non other Channels doing Comparisons of Games Except Nick930 ...
I still don't Understand after All this Great Videos of Direct Comparisons , Why this Channel has Soo much less Subscribers ..
You will get what you Deserve , We Love you ...
Keep it up .....👍👍👍😊
I Think its UA-cam Algorithms Fault ... 🤔
I dont know what to say. Here have a new subscriber.
Very well done video.
Nick, please make a Direct Comparison between Uncharted 4: A Thief's End, and, Uncharted: The Lost Legacy
Not really any point as Lost Legacy is just a stand-alone DLC for 4 with no difference apart from new assets here and there.
@@bainser5243 Good point
Why? Lost Legacy is literally Uncharted 4 with a different protagonist.
@Bruce Wayne Ewwww, an incel.
The fact that Alan Wake, Quantum Break and Control are in the same universe is great!
Especially since the FBC (Federal Bureau of Control) has been introduced.
This creates so many possibilities for new characters, new powers and new world settings.
Can't wait to see what Remedy brings out next.
Hmmm. Maybe same univer too with Mad Max(Life is Strange). LOL
I typed "Quantum Break vs Control" into UA-cam hoping against all hope. But I knew... I knew it would be you. Thank you Nick930.
Underrated channel
hope to see quantum break 2, this 2 games remind me of Second Sight game
Faras Wahyu there’s probably not gonna be one since the game didn’t do so well sales wise
@Kattos _ yeah but I mean they probably won't fund the second game since there is not a 100% chance that it'll succeed, its too much of a risk for remedy and Microsoft
@Kattos _ part 2 is the same thing as a second game so it wouldnt work. They will most likely focus on alan wake and control
@@amanfern Sales do mean nothing. They can make a remaster and a 2nd Part if they want and there's Gamepass
I am currently replaying Control. This games makes me interested to play QB and revives my interest to play Alan Wake series which I only played briefly.
If you liked Control, you'll LOVE Quantum Break. QB is simply the superior game. Especially the story.
@@matthewsmith1779 unfortunately it's not the case. I found superpowers in QB are rather too gimmicky, and it's basically a shooter game. I admit the story is interesting. I may revisit the game sometimes in the future.
@@eriol33
The Powers in QB all flow together. You can use them at the same time. There are skills for when an enemy is close, skills to rush-down enemies, and skills to escape.
With Control, the only useful power is launch. If you max out launch and health, you don't need anything else. You barely even have to use your service weapon.
Also, the enemies in Control are much more annoying in the fact they spawn out no where from anywhere in the room. I can't count how many times I seemingly "cleared" a room of enemies only to have an object fly out of nowhere and take out 90% of my health. Death usually follows soon after.
Control has so many cheap deaths. Cheap deaths seems to be a part of the core game play mechanic of Control.
The story of QB is a lot better as well.
@@matthewsmith1779 I think you just arent good at the game.
What proves this is saying launch is the only good power then claiming the game is full of cheap deaths
@@matthewsmith1779 ya gotta combine the abilities man or you arent gonna get anywhere its uber videogamey
Feels like Control’s sounds felt more compressed than QB but overall seems to be an improvement. nice comparison nick!
1:12 yes, the upscale Option was on, which makes everything really blurry in Quantum Break. It can be used, but for a Model Detail Comparison not using it might've been the better choice. Specially since you have DLSS disabled.
10:56 Remedy appears to have forgotten the pump sound effect
I wondered if he disabled the "Uspcale" option in Quantum Break, because it actually makes the game run at a lower resolution.
very nice video!
Great upload. Thanks...
Quantum Break >>> Control. I have both on Steam but Quantum Break’s powers and the background music just make me play the game again and again and again.
i still remember playing max payne 1, a masterpiece developed by remedy entertainment :)
The single best series on UA-cam.
I subbed you bruh !
Quantum Break is my favorite Xbox Game til this day! It's amazing, gameplay and story, both well done.
Its great! I wish more people played it!
@@AStarInAndromeda People are already looking forward to the game
It reminds me a lot of infamous, namely second son.
Can’t wait to see your ghost recon wild lands vs breakpoint comparison.
Absolutely planned and in the works. Also doing a full history of Ghost Recon :)
Wow, I really love your review and putting up the smallest to biggest details in sight, you should be in IGN or other something
I’ve watched your vids for about a year now and only just realized I never subb’d! I changed that quick!
I think the difference between good and bad visuals boils down to how the lighting is handled. It can really make or break the game :3
You need to disable upscaling under display settings to get rid of blurry edges around objects.
The white black and red gives me stanley kubrick vibes... Awesome
Alan Wake. I fucking loved that game
I think I enjoyed quantum break more than control. Control felt empty and dull. Quantum break was fast and full of narrative
Fun fact, the actress who plays jessie is the same one as beth in quantum break
It's always great to time sprint directly into the enemy or making a time bubble around them and unload the whole semi-auto's magazine at it.
The only bad thing in QB, imo is the shooting mechanic, if you're low on powers to use, it really becomes not fun to play.
I only just found out that your logo is of a clock and not a sniper scope
Before I played Control Epic gifted it twice.... I finally asked my siblings whether it was a fun game and gave it a shot. I'm glad I did. I love it! I'm getting a bit of Stranger Things vibes with adults. So not pure horror, but actually a thriller. The type of genre I prefer. I dislike horror.
Should have turned off "upscaling" in quantum break for comparison. Makes a massive difference.
I just replayed control, with the new series X version. That PC version looks incredible! I’m jealous
NFS PAYBACK VS NFS HEAT
Flamethrower Bf and Cod
Heat will look better for sure
Both sucks
20 years after Max payne I'm still waiting for these guys to remake it. Sigh.
They don't own the license. Take Two or Rockstar or 2K does. Thats why Max Payne 3 is so different.
I've never played Quantum Break, but Control is an audiovisual masterpiece. It's been quite a long time since I've been this impressed with a game from an audiovisual standpoint. Especially with the sound, which is often kinda overlooked in games - IMO it has some of the best audio designs I've ever seen (well, heard) in a game.
What about playlength or replay quality? How big is this game (control)? I'm getting this! Looks amazing!!
Quantum Break on my Xbox One X dont appears this bored resolution. Look nice like Control.
I love the fire in "Control".
I loved QB, short but sweet! My only dislike was the lack of gun detail, especially while reloading (no visible mag removal/insertion)
Even those who didn’t like Quantum Break have to admit that the 2 scenes like at 4:13 where time was passing fast were pretty badass
Quantum break on xbox one x doesn't even look that blurry. I can pull the camera in close and the charter is super sharp. Something looks off.
Yea the xbox one x put an end to that blurriness. I think on the x you can turn off motion blur on qb.
Why does all gun sounds in new games sound so muffled? It was like this in Division 1 over 2.
Mw?
@@AliEssa-oq7if haven't played the new one, so I can't speak on it.
Same for the new gears. Budget goes to graphics and multiplayer rather than the small detaila
@@acmotifs That sucks, especially for such a gruesome game.
Budget is the answer.
I played Control during Gamescom on a PS4 and quite enjoyed it, but i am scared of how it will perform on my PC 😢 I also quite like the more gameplay oriented playstyle of Control. Good video btw!
Lukas S. If QB worked decently for you, Control will work much better
@@raresmacovei8382 Well I didn't even play QB because of the bad PC optimization
@@the_laki It's optimized well just a very demanding game you noob.
Your PC is trash, kiddo
i literally maxed out all of my launch, energy, and health skill tree
ended up basically one tapping almost every enemy i come across lmao, even the mini bosses
