PS5 for the Lazy; Set Graphics and Difficulty Through Console System

Further information on PS5's menu appears. Players have discovered an option that few mentioned. The enables us to change game settings directly in the system.

IN A NUTSHELL:
  1. PlayStation 5 offers many useful options in the system menu.
  2. One of them are global game settings.

PS5's system is designed to make using the console as easy as possible. One of the things that Sony didn't mention when presenting the console's software are predefined game settings.

Sounds like PC to you too? There's no denying that consoles took a turn towards desktop computers. With the debut of the PS4 Pro and Xbox One X, setting profiles have become popular, enabling us to choose better graphics or smoother gameplay.

One option in the menu will save us from having to dig into the game settings every time.

Until now, we had to decide in each game separately. However, PS5 has a global option in the system menu. If we care about fluidity, we choose the appropriate option. If we value the visual experience more, turn on the "resolution" setting and enjoy the maximum settings, regardless of the game.

As you can see in the above screenshot, we will also be able to set a constant level of difficulty in each game, without diggin in their menus. Apparently, this is one of those solutions that we were not aware of until it was implemented.
