Such a thing said by a game studio that can very well decide to not use it, feels like wanting to ride the wave of backlash.

Keep your artistic integrity, that I believe will become a very big selling point sooner or later.

As for players, I seriously doubt many could afford two 5090s just to run that crap, probably not even one if the AI bubble doesn't burst soon so prices can go back to normal.

I don't know, I don't detect bandwagoning from their statements. They sound like real, genuine hatred.

Speaking to PC Gamer in comments the pair have since posted in full to social media Oshry and Dusk developer David Szymanski argued that DLSS 5 isn't just an optional trick folks can ignore, but something that should actively resisted.

"Please tell me what generative AI has anything to do with Deep Learning Super Sampling - which is what DLSS actually stands for in case anyone forgot," Oshry said. "They're hiding this Gen AI bullshit behind the DLSS moniker because they think we're stupid...They know if they called it something like 'Nvidia Generative Upscaling' the public backlash would be immediate and intense."

In the developer's eyes, DLSS 5 amounts to "fundamentally changing the way video games look based on artificial intelligence that's been trained on Instagram models and Epstein memes", leading him to question the point of making game art in the first place.

If I saw these comments on a Lemmy post, it would fit right at home.
