All of the huge problems that I saw with it so far.

• 1: It completely changes the lighting so everything is perfectly lit like it was taken in a professional photo studio, even where it makes absolutely no sense, completely running the atmosphere the developers were intending to set.

• 2: It sometimes downright changes the looks of the characters so bad that they look like another person

• 3: It creates a ton of distracting artefacts.

• 4: It makes everything look like it is of the same style

Seriously, it's like they took the essence of the Half-Life 2 Cinematic mod and made an AI that applies it to any game.

That’s too far.

MSAA, SMAA, temporal AA, heaven forbid FXAA, they all suck. So does resolution scaling; if you can’t run native, you take a massive hit.

I don’t want to go back to that world of juggling between them or suffering with AA off or hacked in. It’s easy to say “oh, just code it better,” but all these solutions are inefficient on modern hardware; go back, and you leave performance on the table.

DLSS/XeSS/FSR4 and Unreal’s scaling are very convenient solutions. It antialiases perfectly, it scales to your monitor wonderfully. It’s not universal, but it looks fantastic as long as the hardware supports it base res and performance is alright.

Now, frame gen is too much of a mixed bag, and DLSS5 as demoed is obviously too far.

In every implementation I’ve seen, it’s essentially necessary to enable it to get a decent framerate, but it makes every game look like blurry shit.

I mean, I got a 4070 super and rarely use DLSS even in 4k and get triple digit fps...

There's a bunch of minor settings that eat up crazy resources. DLSS is only needed if your other settings are too high. Sometimes that trade off can be worth it, but often not

If you think you have no options but dlss, you need to spend more time in settings.
