We Spoke To Game Devs And All Of Them Hate DLSS 5: 'What The F***, Nvidia?' - Lemmy.World

I think the NVIDIA people just saw that it’s «more realistic» and that was good enough for them. And, to be fair, it is.

But they are so drunk on AI that they missed the inconsistencies, the fake imaginary lights, the impossibility of controlling the result, the random addition of makeup, the fact it fucks up color balance and contrast…

And the COST !? Two 5090s when most people couldn’t even afford one !? Even if the results were perfect, just forget about it ! No sane developer will spend any money on a feature less than 1% of their players will even experience, let alone enjoy.

No sane person is going to spend that massive amount of money just to see what AI thinks their games could look like. The people who buy games want to see what the devs made them look like. Not what an AI thinks the devs made. Absolutley no one wants a middleman between the art and artist. As that’s supposed to be you. We don’t need AI there. That’s dumb as shit, and expensive as shit to boot.

No sane person is going to spend that massive amount of money

I do remember a friend who dropped $1200 on linked GeForce 1040s(?) to max out the settings in Elder Scrolls: Oblivion.

Was it worth it? Probably not. Will people with more money than sense do it? Absolutely.
