There’s something to be said about developers being able to target standardized hardware, and ship a game pre-loaded with graphics settings already tweaked. Also, it’s nice knowing a game will just work no matter what, with no “Oh right, I switched my audio output to my headset earlier” or whatever.
That said I find my PC experience to be way more satisfying for pretty much every other reason. And the pre-configured graphics settings are a lot less attractive now that devs use TAA by default. I will move heaven and earth to turn off TAA.
Yeah, even though they are still PCs i think that’s also one of the advantages of the steam deck/machine. Developers can make graphics presets for that specific hardware like cyberpunk did, or you can just look online and see what graphics settings other people used to get the best experience. And yeah i also despise TAA lol, i actually hooked my ps5 up to a different monitor when i saw it ghosting cause i thought my monitor was broken or something lol. I really hate that most console games don’t give you the option to turn it off.

This is the thing that bothers me most about TAA. The current industry and many users have this attitude of “There’s no problem. Whatever you’re seeing is probably your fault” gaslighting that makes you second guess yourself.
I’ve never found someone IRL that knows what ghosting I’m talking about. When I describe it or show them clips I took, they always say “Oh, mine doesn’t do that. It must be your settings.” Five times now it’s come to a head where I’ve gone to their house and recreated it on their PC to show them what’s going on.
