Another AMD sponsored game with FSR only?

They only mention RT reflections and shadows, is that because they are pc only and RTGI is on all platforms or has the RTGI mentioned ages ago been kicked to the curb? If it's gone, and AMD are the sponsors it's hard not to make some assumptions.

Yh pretty sure we heard it was supposed to have RTGI a while back. I can't remember who from. Apparently it's well known that developers have cut back on RT feature sets in certain games as to not make AMD look bad, much to the annoyance of Nvidia developers.

No DLSS.

I am about ready to quit gaming. I swear to fucking god.

How can AMD have the budget to secure these deals while Nvidia who is literally making billions every quarter cant match their offer?

Nvdia for all their faults have not been petty enough to lock DLSS exclusivity on games as far I'm aware? Maybe because they know they'll smoke FSR regardless and make their cards look even better.

Really shitty move by AMD though, wow.

You’re right




They spent a good portion of the video talking about RTGI

Probably gone

Thanks AMD sponsorship !

Thanks for finding that, I new I had seen them bangin on about RTGI in a video ages ago but couldn't remember where.

I'll be nice and give them the benefit of doubt until it's confirmed RTGI is gone, maybe it's just an all platform feature and not pc specifically.

I know Avatar is a big movie franchise, but are there really big avatar fans out there? Do people actually love the lore and characters. I just wonder because I have watched both movies in the theater and enjoyed the spectacle but the universe building and characters are to me just a snore fest.

This is not a criticism I just was really curious if there are huge Avatar fans out there who have been waiting for this game. I might play it if it’s good but Avatar license is actually on the balance kind of a negative for me.

I never liked it, but do peoples remember when the first avatar hit that some peoples started a “I’m a Na’vi” movement in the US? 😂

Visually good looking.

No DLSS though? Stupid decision and guaranteed to look visually worse than a simple DLSS injection.

Strange, why not mention it
Click to expand...
Because they mentioned it in the first trailer and confirmed it when PS5 footage came out. I think they have fallbacks on PS5 and Xbox whereas on PC, its probably always on which is why they felt compelled to mention it.

This is what the tech director told Alex a few months ago when he was nitpicking the reflections.

Agreed, there's no 120 fps or Ray tracing, but honestly the experience is much better. With the upcoming ps5 pro, case for shifting to console will be stronger.

Of course, PCs are amazing emulator machines.

With RTGI and all, this game is so running at 30 fps on consoles. Fucking hell. Guess I'll have to wait for the ps5 pro to play this game.

Is it only me, but the visuals uplift going from console to a PC is the widest in any gaming generations just yet?

This looked so sharp and so much better looking than console versions.

Obviously Nvidia doesn't need to also, doesn't AMD have to compete with Nvidia? AMD can't snag high profile games to use features on their GPUs?

Just had a quick chat with a friend in the know who told me that the RTGI will work on both RT and non-RT GPUs with lower ray count on the latter. Supposedly, this new snowdrop engine which was designed for current-gen consoles and PC hardware has been built with a heavy focus on RTGI.

Oh, and besides FSR2 and DLSS it should also support XeSS, and maybe something extra down the line. 😜
