#note to self: check tv problems too before factory resetting gaming consoles

[jinmukangwrites]

<saw Jedi Survivor wasn't coming out on PS4

<finally bought a ps5

<learnt I could transfer save data between consoles on games I have progress on on the PS4

<speedran my console setup so I can download Elden Ring

<Elden Ring had 40+ hours to download

<Wifi sucked

<Elden Ring was now taking 99+ hours to download

<5 days pass

<used phone hotspot to give it kickboost

<Elden Ring finally downloaded fully

<transfered my save data

<opened game to play

<noticed the screen lagged every 5 or so seconds

<googled everything I could to figure it out

<google didn't help

<thought that maybe because it didn't start lagging until I transferred my save data between consoles I must have broke my PS5 somehow

<panic. Denial

<factory reset PS5 as a last ditch effort, sobbing and crying

<PS5 still stuttered every 5 or so seconds

<wailing and weeping

<realized every time I messed with the HDMI my Roku TV would say it was changing my settings into "game mode"

<for the fuck of it, turned off "game mode"

<PS5 no longer stuttering

<googled Roku "game mode" issues

<unplugged TV for 3 minutes, replugged it, turned back on game mode

<graphics working perfectly on right settings

<Elden Ring at 40+ download speed

<screaming and shaking stick at god
