Diferencias entre Ray-Tracing, Path-Tracing y DLSS 5 con el rostro de Grace en RE Requiem.

@HDRgameAnalysis Thanks for sharing!

HDR analyses Death Stranding 2 on PC. HDR is broken if you use DLSS 😪 With DLSS the game only outputs 300 nits maximum so highlights, like the Sun in the sky, looks totally washed out. See picture 1. In picture 2 I have used the Pico upscaler instead and here HDR is not broken (or not so broken☺️). Other than that HDR is implemented the same way as on PS5. See my analyses in the link. The issues I pointed out in my PS5 analysis seams fixed in the RenoDX HDR mod that has already released 👍 Picture 4 is with the RenoDX mod. In picture 3 you can see the issues the Modder has fixed with RenoDX 👍 So PC gamers should use the RenoDX HDR mod, as always. I will in the next post link to where you can get the RenoDX mod (a version that works with DLSS). Turn on HDR in-game and leave in-game HDR settings at default. I will over the next days play Death Stranding more and make updates if relevant. I recommend visiting the RenoDX Discord Server to get updated info and to support the Modders.

@BrandouDio @HDRgameAnalysis Oh cool, got to check it out!

@HDRgameAnalysis New showcase for Mirror's Edge HDR I made. Shows how clipped SDR can be and how RTX HDR only blows out the whites. RENODX gets all that detail back, wayy cleaner youtube.com/watch?v=OG46Ot… Helpful to demonstrate why RENO should be used instead of RTX HDR.

@houzepha @HDRgameAnalysis RTX HDR is a good solution for games that do not support native HDR or have no RenoDX file available. Example Age of Empires 2.

@HDRgameAnalysis what about RTX HDR ?

@jonathannero111 @HDRgameAnalysis Both, if it is broken with DLSS, then with both models.

@HDRgameAnalysis you are referring to normal dlss 4.0 or dlss 4.5? dlss 4.5 supposedly make hdr better

@GamingSinceNES @K__Med May I get a backstory, Lore or something? xD

@K__Med Oh look, it's K-Med 🖕

Crimson Desert is suffering from something we see all the time when players don’t have a clear understanding of what a game is trying to be, a lack of aligned expectations from the audience. As I read through so many of its reviews, I keep hearing it get knocked for things like having a bad story, taking too long to get good, and just many other things. But the people who keep pushing to understand the game end up having a really good experience and realize that the intended focus of the game, exploration, combat, puzzles, open world, are all excellent. Now to be clear, even within that paradigm, I’m sure you can find people who bash those mechanics too, but my point is that the game is being docked points for expectations of being something that it isn’t. Picture a world where the Souls genre didn’t exist. Now picture that in that world, Elden Ring launches. You’d have reviewers complaining that there are hard bosses right from the start, forcing you to start over countless times. You’d have people saying the story makes no sense. You’d have people frustrated that unlocking new areas is maddening because the game doesn’t give you enough direction. You’d have people complaining about the lack of checkpoints. Essentially, you’d have a game that broke their expectations for what an open world action RPG should be, something closer to The Witcher. And those reviewers would have dragged down the overall Metacritic score because they wanted something from the game that they didn’t get. But that’s not what happened with Elden Ring. Elden Ring had trust. Elden Ring had a deep fanbase of its style of game already ready to review it. Elden Ring had reviewers who understood the type of game they were getting into, even if they had never played a Souls game before. Take the point that one of the repeated criticisms of Crimson Desert is, “it takes almost 10 hours to get good,” and that alone made people drop off. “I’m sorry, if it takes a game 10 hours to get good, that’s not a good game.” I think there’s a valid argument there somewhere, but it’s also extremely reductive because if the ask is to give the game time and it then provides over 100 hours of a fantastic experience, the onboarding becomes a trade off for that payoff. JRPG fans understand this well, being hand tied for hours before the game really opens up. And of course, Death Stranding is a perfect example of this too. I’ve seen so many people drop off because they felt the game was too slow and there was no hook in the early hours. All of this is to say that expectations seem to be the real killer when they don’t align with what a game actually is. It’s a natural phenomenon though. We, as people, look for patterns in our everyday lives to help us make decisions. We tend to buy the same brands because the last thing we bought from them worked. I had someone argue with me not long ago that the game needs to have a good story because it’s an RPG. Just a modicum of research would have told you that this is not an RPG. But that’s the problem with expectations. Also, fk K-Med 🖕

@IGN IGNorant

We're not ready to give our Crimson Desert score yet - but we still have some thoughts. For the full Review So Far: bit.ly/4sjXPrV

@saltyinquisitor @GamersNexus He did, actually, horrible video by GN as per usual lately unfortunately.

@GamersNexus Did you find a way to blame this on Trump?

DLSS 5 youtube.com/watch?v=H1a8YE…

@GamersNexus Yes, you are included Steve, completely wrong actually.

@Romudeth Wrong and wrong. Only a loud Nay sayer crowd and it will def NOT destroy anything. Just don't turn it on and when you turn it on, then the studio greenlit and shipped it. Stupid take.

The people who think "realistic" means "better" don't understand artistic intent. They will never understand why this is bad for games. This will homogenize every title, killing actual artistic vision. This is not something we should champion. Thankfully, the majority of gamers reject this.

@opinali @HardwareUnboxed Or as I like to call them HardwareMisinformation

Even @HardwareUnboxed publishing full benchmark reviews of Crimson Desert without AMD's day-1 driver? No wonder RDNA4 results look bad, support for this game is expected in Adrenalin 26.3.1 tomorrow. NVIDIA released their GRD a week in advance so all benchmarks benefit from it.🧵

@oliemack Thank you so much for sharing, I really loved the video, shared the enthusiasm and looking forward to more!

Here's some of the DLSS 5 material we saw in the demos but didn't get a chance to film. Here I think you can see the strengths of DLSS 5 - reflections become much more attractive. Starfield doesn't have great lighting to begin with, so the differences can be profound.

@MisterSpace3 Thanks for sharing. Looks insane, really hyped.

Hands on #dlss5 and #nvidia developer commentary [I boosted the sound a bit]

@MisterSpace3 It looks so good omg.

DLSS 5 has shown that discourse is dead youtu.be/GUxsmp8iojY

@BattleAxeVR I really enjoyed your post, but I understand that some unbearable answers showed up probably. The manufactured hate is unreal and as soon as GTA VI comes with the tech enabled, people will go nuts for it.

Quite frankly, many people whining about how the AI glam filters here have some gender stereotype / misoginy have no problem whatsoever lecturing other people it's totally fine to change beloved characters sex/race/skin colour completely. I hate hypocrites. I see you. Stop it.

@dark1x I shared their enthusiasm. It's not even here yet, but weapon sales apparently spiked 240% the day before yesterday. Have a good week!

I think this video does a good job explaining the viewpoints of the team but I wanted to make sure it was clear that I wasn't feeling up to participate yet thus not in the video. I will share my own thoughts soon but my opinions largely mirror what Alex says in this video!

@shinobi602 You can disregard Eurogamer as a source, since they have nothing with gaming to do.

@Jackgamer74 I am super excited too!

youtu.be/GJXe_ccf-PA?si… There will be a day before DLSS 5 and a day after, when it releases fall 2026. My excitement is through the roof. I look forward to trying out all my games again to see the massive improvement DLSS 5 will bring, including to the mods I'm using😉 All games will from this day on look MUCH, MUCH, MUCH better on an Nvidia GPU, than on consoles, AMD GPUs and older Nvidia GPUs (depending on how many generations is supported). If DLSS 5 is exclusive to RTX 5000, then gamers will be flocking to buy a new GPU, just to at least try out this new tech. Thats my prediction.

@Grummz Thanks for that!

Guys, things have changed. There used to be so much woke stuff in games to talk about and push back on. But there is so much less now. Even at GDC it was muted. You all made a difference. Keep it that way.
