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.
Thank you for finally providing the context for this image. I’ve seen it all over the place but I don’t game on PC so I wasn’t going to take the time to look it up.
Looks cool to me, photorealism is coming. Not really a gamer, btw
Wow, all of those I unreal engine “next Gen” Mario and Zelda videos were right.
Looks fine to me
All the rage focuses on faces, and yes, some look rough. But nobody is talking about the environments and textures. I think they look incredible. Old games may have been a bad example for them to give. Games built with this in mind from the start? I’ll hold judgement until I see a game built for this from scratch, not a demo of a 15-year-old one.
If this tech appeared four or five years ago, it would be all praise around here…
AI hate is becoming “hate for the hate” just because it’s the dominant opinion.
“Artistic intent…” When did you guys care about artistic intent before? Did you ever use a mod to change visual aspects of a game?
actually helps out in the sports games. ea has the same lightning like they had in 2006, so this takes it up to speed to 2020. however real games gonna look arse. alao 2 x 5090 cards required, donno who the fuck is the demographic. also thanks for killing dual gpu support so you could bring a shit one back.
‘Artists have the final say’
They already had the final say.
I think their most gracious implication goes like
‘Artists have the final say’ [for now]
Insanely impressive that it’s able to do that in real time.
Makes perfect sense in context.
Nvidia is no longer a gaming company. They do not care about gamers. They are actively DRIVING AWAY gamers as fast as they can, because AI chips are more lucrative than dirty smelly tiny consumer products.
This is meant to show off real-time AI generation performance, which is massively marketable to AI companies. Not consumers. Nothing is about consumers.
damn look at all the free marketing nvidia is getting with the memes. Idk when people will learn that if you aren’t into something it’s best to ignore it and not generate buzz about it.
Meanwhile my windows PC restarts if I launch a game with kernel level anti-cheat, after updating my GPU driver a few months ago. Just tried the new driver, instant reboot.
MS and Nvidia are fucking entirely made of vibe-coding morons, and apparently testing is no longer needed.
any particular reason you put up with it ?
Because despite what people say Linux doesn’t “just work” with nvidia, I can’t afford an AMD GPU right now, and because the people I know only want to play games with kernel level BS.
It sounds like you tried one or more Linux distros and it didn’t work out for you. Sorry to hear that.
Would you mind sharing your specs and the distro you tried so other people in the future can learn from your experience?
Also, if you are still interested in ditching windows I could do some research and see if I can help you out with your current specs.
