A massive technological leap for graphics - and we've been hands-on with four games.

I’m completely speechless. This looks so terrible I thought it was a joke, but apparently Nvidia released these demos to impress people. DLSS 5 runs the entire game through an AI filter, making every character look like it’s running through an ultra realistic beauty filter.

The photo above is used as the promo image for the official blog post by the way. It completely ignores artistic intent and makes Grace’s face look “sexier” because apparently that’s what realism looks like now.

I wouldn’t be so baffled if this was some experimental setting they were testing, but they’re advertising this as the next gen DLSS. As in, this is their image of what the future of gaming should be. A massive F U to every artist in the industry. Well done, Nvidia.

    Eh, the physics are whatever. Just the fact that every damn game looks the same because it’s all going through the exact same everything-must-be-hyperrealistic rendering pipeline is kinda sad.

      I thought so as well until I played stalker 2 and got the frustration of getting launched in random directions when trying to jump on walls and such (you know a part of the game, stalking)
