Didn't quake bounce light 4 times?

Real time RT really is meh, but I like what they're doing in CS2. Prebaked Global Illumination looks freaking fantastic.

Unironically yes.

I just want to know about the ONE real world use for bouncing light. Probably referring to research so groundbreaking that it shifted our entire understanding of the nature of light if not the universe in general.

Just small stuff like that 🤷

I know you're joking but it's extremely useful in medical imaging techniques and for earth observation.
