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.
