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.
Yea it looks way better on the right. lol. People just wanna be mad. Just assume they’re bots and ignore the chirping
I too have a complete and total disregard for artstyles and developer-intended aesthetics
It’s like when people look at a film deliberately animated with a particular framerate, see the version where someone had AI interpolate the frames to make it like 120 FPS, then say it looks objectively better than the original, because the only metric they can value a piece of media by at that point just seems to be “I need more frames”
Like In Into the Spider-Verse, when Miles is animated at 12 FPS, and the (more experienced) Peter Parker is animated at 24 FPS, but after Miles improves and gets a better hold of his skills, he gets animated at 24 FPS, too. The lower framerate subconsciously makes us interpret his movements as more choppy, inexperienced, and imprecise, on top of his existing animated movements, to even better sell the plot point of his inexperience.
Meanwhile, many people’s TVs have motion smoothing, which entirely destroys this effect and makes the film fundamentally less communicative as a result, even if on the surface people just say “It’s smoother so it’s better.”
Lmao. I definitely said that.
I too imagine people saying things I disagree with so I can stay upset and disagreeable
I mean that’s exactly what you’re saying if you genuinely thing that yassified filtered dogshit with atrocious lighting actually somehow looks better and retains the artists’ intent
You don’t think Grace would have dolled herself up to go investigate the burned out hotel where her mother was murdered as soon as she finished having a panic attack?
I don’t recall even mentioning the “artist’s intent” ya weirdo. lol
Such an odd way of communicating and interpreting others.
So why don’t you explain what you meant because it sure sounds to the rest of us that you’re basically “yah brah totally hotter this way YOLO hang loose wooo!” and completely missing the point on how destructive this is to the creative process and the art that goes into making a game.
This is Nvidia doing this, right? I don’t see why they wouldn’t try and improve the graphics in games when using their graphics cards. DLSS has been criticized as it’s continued to improve. If people use it it’s because they prefer the graphics with the minimal impact on FPS.
Again, I don’t think I’ve commented on Ithe impact on artists. Since you insist, I’ll comment on it. Y’all raise interesting points. I’m not sure what’s in the best interest for super stressed, underpaid, and underappreciated game developers. If this leads to them selling more games because they can run on cheaper hardware then maybe it’s great. If it completely distorts some face they worked really hard on then maybe that sucks.
That said, I’m just not gonna pretend the one on the right doesn’t look more realistic and I wanted to disrupt the echoes
And as everyone knows, you MUST enjoy something EXACTLY as the creator intended. That’s why when you go to restaurants you’re not allowed to ask for substitutions. Your preferences don’t matter in the slightest, because you risk offending the chef.
I’m going to assume they’re confused about which is left and which is right.
