DLSS 6: You don’t even need to design your game. AI will generate it in real time.🤡

Was able to brace myself enough to skim through the video. Anyone that watches those clips and thinks that looks better has no place working on anything related to visual tech. Not only is the interpolation obvious and distracting, every scene, no matter the time of day, location, or anything else, has the exact same shitty lighting that washes out every shadow and color painstakingly added to the scene by actual professionals. Pro-tip: A white-balanced image is the starting point, not the end-goal. Making every game look exactly the same is fucking terrible, you hacks.

I can only hope this shit only finds its way into the AAAA dross that's not worth playing already.

Won't it be kinda strange for gamers who buy a game and find that none of the characters look like the ones on the Steam storefront? 👀 Many of these characters are legendary and have been in long-running serieseses, imagine booting up the latest Uncharted game only to find that Burt Reynolds is the main character now, all because you turned on DLSS.

Downright disrespectful of the artistic toil that goes into perfecting characters, lighting, colour grading, etc. Like maybe there was an artistic choice made to not have the character look like an AI ad for an AI-generated OnlyFans model?

It used to be a tool to gain FPS while retaining graphical fidelity. Now it's aiming to be a full-on infidel; replacing art to the extent that it's barely recognisable. What will DLSS 8 be like?

While everyone is raging on about how a woman looks in video games, I find it even crazier that it changes the fantasy feeling of Oblivion with a hyperrealistic look. Fuck art directions, every game will look the same now with DLSS 5.

The demos run on the back of two 5090 GPUs... At what point do we even acknowledge I shouldnt need to be using nearly 2kW of power on a gaming PC on a dedicated circuit in my home? Simply diminishing returns at a certain point and nvidia is bringing us way past that point into very unreasonable territory.

Is it cool they could do it at all?... I GUESS?! But they've definitely lost the plot here.

Nvidia actually used two RTX 5090s for its demos: one plays the game, the other exclusively runs the DLSS 5 technology. The use of two GPUs is required right now as DLSS 5 still has a long way to go in terms of optimisation - both in terms of performance and its VRAM footprint. However, DLSS 5 is designed for use on a single GPU and that's how it will ship later this year.

So much easier when you can just throw 2x the hardware at things. Let's wait and see how it works on a single card.

Also, guessing it will be set up so developers can turn it on and off as needed in their game. If they make it a user-facing global setting, it will quickly turn into a meme generator.

Hmmm I also just thought of how this is it looking the "best" for the demo and that most of the time it will just be the makeup gun set to "whore"

AI filters on the end result that basically kills the soul of the art direction. I can see a game parody that capitalizes on this.

Finally, Gamers™ are getting a filter for all the female protagonists that aren't hot enough. Gaming is healing!

Grown people expend energy on this?

And this is why indie games will probably have a second golden age.

Maaaan.... I really wish they'd fuck off with this shit, but it's only going to get worse because this is how they're going to push cloud gaming given it takes 2 5090's to achieve this, and dummies will help them because she's hotter now.

A long way down this road there are a bunch of morons voluntarily plugging themselves into the matrix, dick first.

Oh god no, I hate ai slop

It feels like homogenization of art. The filter pays no attention to the original art style and just conforms it to nividias Ai style.

Thanks! I hate it!

This looks so bad, like uncanny 3d porn bad.
