I’m completely speechless. This looks so terrible I thought it was a joke, but apparently Nvidia released these demos to impress people. DLSS 5 runs the entire game through an AI filter, making every character look like it’s running through an ultra realistic beauty filter.
The photo above is used as the promo image for the official blog post by the way. It completely ignores artistic intent and makes Grace’s face look “sexier” because apparently that’s what realism looks like now.
I wouldn’t be so baffled if this was some experimental setting they were testing, but they’re advertising this as the next gen DLSS. As in, this is their image of what the future of gaming should be. A massive F U to every artist in the industry. Well done, Nvidia.
techno-fascists are incapable of making decent art, hence why they love this shit. They don’t care about Grace as a character or what her design can tell us about her, she needs to be “upgraded” to look like the most generic model ever because they don’t care to actually understand anything about the characters or story or fucking anything at all
To be fair, I’ve never cared about the story of a video game character
do you just stare at the screen when playing something like Disco Elysium
