@JeronimoColl @pcgamer Who the hell would want to live forever? Especially inside an AI, enjoy the rest of eternity being forced to sit through centuries of forced ads since your eternal afterlife is hosted on live service server. A.I isn't a tool like a pencil its an idiot brain replacement.

That's what she says. AI is just a tool, like a pencil, a computer with 'Office' (Word)... whoever treats it as 'other', who uses AI as 'crutches', is doing it wrong nowadays. AI adds, it doesn't subtract. In the future, humanity will merge with it, after all, who wants to die?! But that's a debate for the future, not for now.

Clair Obscur's narrative lead says while it's 'a painful process' to write, AI has never tempted her: 'The whole point of writing is to express what I have in my head' pcgamer.com/games/rpg/clai…

@Aipromptslap @pcgamer Its not path tracing if its completely fabricated, there's no actual lighting bouncing going on with those Ai faces.

@pcgamer If it handles light bounce that naturally without the usual ghosting, call it a filter all you want. This is a massive win for path tracing performance.

Nvidia has just shown off DLSS 5 coming this Fall... and currently it looks a lot like an AI lighting filter pcgamer.com/hardware/nvidi…

@Big__TeeJ @TheDezembro @GamingSinceNES What you've posted there is just marketing jargon written by executives that no actual developer agree's with. No developer wants their character models to have an ai face filter smeared over them with saying that it doesn't change the models doesn't mean shit.

Know what it's doing is giving the artist the exact image and vision they had from the get-go but doing it so within the tight performance targets they have to meet. Currently, they have to scale back after initial development of a full detailed model, but in the future that won't be so necessary... Thanks to this technology. They aren't just interested in it. They are advocating for its immediate implementation into their workflows!

This is potentially the most interesting part about DLSS 5 from what DF has said — it's not replacing assets. So this is just an improvement by transforming lighting? I mean Path Tracing is transformative and that's for environments so this is taking the next level for models?

@fitomics @TheMG3D That just proves that people who approve this crap have no attention span or focus of any kind.

@TheMG3D doubt anyone would notice, i didn't until you pointed it out

It can’t even show a 360 of the character without breaking 😂

@TukiFromKL None of things went against the original devs artistic intentions though, massive difference and you know it.

🚨 Everyone is hating on Nvidia's DLSS 5. I think they're all wrong. > DLSS 1 got destroyed.. It became the standard. > RTX got clowned.. It became the standard. > Ray tracing got mocked.. It became the standard. Every time Nvidia ships something new, gamers riot. Every time, two years later, they can't live without it.. 8,000 people liked a reply saying "this looks horrifically bad." The same people will pre-order the GPU that runs it.. Nvidia didn't become a $3 trillion company by listening to reply guys... They became one by being right before everyone else was ready. Hate it now. Beg for it later. That's the Nvidia cycle.

@RobedLogic @JonBick0 "Fuck having to deal with idiots that can't make your vision happen". Thats because you're bad at directing your vision, if you only use AI you'll never learn how to talk to actual artists and get what you want. I bet you let Ai do the parenting for you as well.

@JonBick0 Nah, AI is great. Fuck artistic gatekeeping. Fuck the system. Fuck borrowing money from people for a project and fuck having to deal with idiots that can't make your vision happen. You're just upset your job vanishes soon.

Absolute dog water

I'm also unsubbing from Digital Foundry after they praised this, on top of it shitting on the original devs work it also fucks up the lighting, tonemapping and is inconsistent between frames. Them praising this is like them saying McDonalds is better in Gordon Ramseys restaurant.

This is just utterly fucking disgusting. I love how it claims it 'infuses' it with photo realistic lighting and it instead either removes the shadows or places them in areas where it shouldn't be. You're meant to just upscale not alter the original artists intentions.

@TheIshikawaRin @hypersocialize The dude is so unlikeable that is hard to agree with him when he's right, I really wish that he would just stick to facts without his snarky teenage attitude.

@hypersocialize I hate that Threat Interactive actually had a point about Digital Foundry.

It is disheartening seeing Digital Foundry outright praising DLSS 5's AI slop filter, particularly regarding Resident Evil 9.

@Samuraiguy35 @KaineRich2555 @NVIDIAGeForce I'm betting the actual devs at capcom are disgusted by this and that it was said by some executive who'd love nothing better than to not pay an artist a single cent if they could.

@KaineRich2555 @NVIDIAGeForce Not capcom man. How can they say that grace looks better in that comparison

Announcing NVIDIA DLSS 5, an AI-powered breakthrough in visual fidelity for games, coming this fall. DLSS 5 infuses pixels with photorealistic lighting and materials, bridging the gap between rendering and reality. Learn More → nvidia.com/en-us/geforce/…

@Harra__ Nope completely tone deaf to game developers who are fighting for their jobs against crap like this.

@Keyecomposer It's still not a good look though 😆

Bloody awful

@hollowpixl @KaineRich2555 @NVIDIAGeForce No in fact the devs are very much against this, this is just another prime example of marketing trying to speak on behalf of actual developers who think this shit is insulting to the craft.

@MarkLyck @26_akiyama47652 @NVIDIAGeForce Some people have no creative eye what so ever and will seriously look at that and how mismatched it is to the in game lighting and say what you just said.

@26_akiyama47652 @NVIDIAGeForce Looks way better with DLSS5

@Harra__ I have to believe that this is an optional thing for DLSS 5 and its not forced on to people who just wait upscaling and frame gen.

This is not a good look, I will not be using DLSS5. This industry is looking real bleak, real fast.

@KJovian @JewishLois @NVIDIAGeForce Its not good for either it ruins the art direction for both.

Let’s it do that for older games but newer games changing faces, changes the art direction. Also have an option to turn off what it does to faces and just have it do it for locations and stuff. Not faces, this looks tacky and random not preserving the original art direction when it comes to faces. Looks decent for locations and older games with odd faces like Starfield

@scottwhiting1 As is Tradition.

Man, I can't wait for Elder Scrolls 6's expansion where you go to a spooky, island and deal with vaguely Lovecraftian themes.

@MarthKoopa @francoalz99 Its all they have in their little lives.

@francoalz99 Y'all really need to stop crying about this woke boogeyman

Bloomberg: Bluepoint pitched Bloodborne remake in early 2025. "the studio was told that the numbers made sense but FromSoftware didn’t want it to happen" bloomberg.com/news/newslette…

@francoalz99 @TheDarklord76 @Wario64 Such a snowflake.

@TheDarklord76 @Wario64 this and also the new kirby racer game sold more in 2 months than they did lol

@pcgamer The actor they're talking about is Ed Skrein, to save some folk the time.

One of my favourite sci-fi B-movie baddies has just been cast as Baldur in Amazon's God of War TV series pcgamer.com/movies-tv/one-…

@pcgamer The RE Engine is a thing of buttery smooth beauty.

Resident Evil Requiem runs well on older hardware #pcgamer #raytracing #pathtracing #residentevilrequiem
