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.
Check out this fun little nugget from further down in the article:
An entire second GPU just to run it.
WTF, I thought the point of DLSS was to gain performance, not lose performance…
I think you have a typo there: An entire second GPU just to ruin it.
SLI is back!
That’s actually good news in my eyes, we definitely won’t see this hit the consumer market for years.
Can hardly afford or find one, they expect us to buy two? Fuck them
They have no intention to sell them to us. They’ll maybe let us play it like this thorugh GeForce Now, or any other streaming service.
They don’t want regular folk to buy PCs anymore.
So, yes. Fuck them indeed.
No. They want regular folk to buy PCs. They just have no idea what regular folk can afford. How much could a banana cost, 10 dollars?
Yeah, their sales team is incredibly fucked over from their only significant revenue being various AI farms.
Context is important. The following sentence is:
But still the idea of DLSS was to claw back performance lost to raytracing, right? This is the exact opposite of that, it costs performance to sloppify the game. I just pray it’s gonna be an optional feature in games and I can still use DLSS 4 instead.
Sure just double the vram and your AI can run, unfortunately you can’t afford that vram because billionaires are running AI.
It’s always funny to me when Nvidia releases new 8GB cards and new VRAM-heavy features as a reason to buy them.
8gig isn’t even enough for 4k right now. There’s a guy that took his 3070 up to 16gig and it really shows the cards are ram limited. And also it’s a serious pita to change vram without melting the card.
2017: Buy 2x 1080 Ti for 1500 bucks, your build is GOATed, have fun spending half your time tinkering with your overclocks and fishing for the perfect SLI compatibility bits in Inspector
2026: This. It’s a shame
Ha ha thats great. Reminds me of PhysX back in the day where initially it needed a dedicated card.
Some of us are old enough to remember when your games would sound different depending on which sound card you had installed.
Ahh, I remember the first time I heard the intro music to Star Control through my Sound Blaster instead of through my motherboard’s piezo speaker. Like the audio version of The Wizard Of Oz switching to colour.
Features that need 2x the GPUs makes the stock go up 2x
Back to the ol pysx GPU days. Except physx made the game cooler.
Great the new SLAI.
as much as you and I both hate it and as shitty as it looks right now, i imagine that some sort of cloud hosted ai technology is the future of gaming
They tried this shit with Stadia. What would be the difference now that we also have AI? There is no reason to stream a shitty AAA game from a shitty company when you can buy and play indie hits on your own hardware.
I know the capitalists really want game streaming to be the future but every gamer with some common sense will reject that idea.
It sounds like indie games that will run on a potato and not require internet access will be the future of gaming. I’m completely done with aaa corposlop.
sounds like a good idea. it sounds like that’s what I like doing and that’s what I like playing and it sounds like it’s good but I don’t know man. you tell me that sounds good. I’m glad you predict the future
i hope that the universe will happen exactly as in this website In accordance with our upvotes
