I mean, that specifically made them lazier. They could say the game gets 100fps when in reality it's 50fps without DLSS. Then they would do other shit instead.
The option existing has made them lazier about optimising and made the quality of the product lower. Practically everyone complains about performance now compared to games pre-framegen where you could expect a high-end gpu to actually perform. Now even the 4070 I have barely hits 50 without DLSS in most new games.
It annoys me considerably because wtf do I even have a high refresh rate monitor for if the games are running aren't even running at half the fps of the hz my monitor has?
crunch makes them lazier? i'm not sure if i agree.
That's not what I said?
