It's obvious that the console community has been unhappy with the game's performance since launch. You have said before that the game is beautiful on console, but you know what? I don't give a shit. None of us give a shit how the game looks if you've sacrificed it's performance. When you ported this game to the consoles, the first thing you did was make it look as good as it could, then you made it run as well as it could at that spec. What you should have done, is optimised the performance of the game as much as possible to make it run at 60fps, THEN made it look as good as it could UNDER THOSE RESTRICTIONS.
But you did what you did, and you can only move forwards. Failing to do anything is going to kill this game on console. I absolutely ADORE this game, but I hate playing it now. You are now left with two very simple options:
- Ballance the two platforms separately (This would lead to consoles having slower attacks ad wider parry windows on some attacks)
OR
- Reduce the graphical fidelity of the game on PS4/Xbox until the game runs at 60fps. A lot of people throw "720p" around, but really do whatever you need to do to improve the framerate.
Remember, this is a niche game. It's demanding, difficult, competitive and stressful. VERRY few console players would complain if the game didn't look as good, but ran at 60fps. If you really want to, you could even have a "Cinematic" setting with high fidelity graphics at the cost of framerate, and a "Performance" mode, with a high framerate at the cost of graphical fidelity. Don't tell me it isn't possible, of course it is. This is an 8 player fighting game, not a 64 player first person shooter. The consoles may not be as strong as a PC can be, but they're by no means weak.
If you REALLY don't want to rework the game like that, and your graphics are just too important (seriously it's a fucking fighting game. Certain genres demand performance over looks, the main ones being driving games and fighting games) then you always have the option of balancing the games separately. If you refuse to do either, then quite honestly, F you.
