even though its an improvement for metro but it still isnt the best looking game, a trillion bouncing rays doesnt magically turn a game beautiful. Its the art direction, and production quality that matters not what effects you use.
Mathematics doesnt paint a da vinci, it provides you the tools to paint a davinci.
Ive said this time and time again im not impressed with how many giga bytes, hertz or processing power thats used in any game im not interested in any buzzwords, ive heard a billion graphical techniques through the years and when they become the norm people move to hype the next new technologies. and call the old ones crap.
On the ps3, 360 days it was earlier a huge hype on normal mapping and deffered rendering, at the end of that gen pc master race anthem was tessellation and nvidias cuda and physx, plus 1080p 30 locked
Then when tessellation, physx or cuda became the norm in ps4 xbone generation 1080p 30 locked
The goal posts have shifted to 4k 60fps
With raytracing and by reading the comments on this post alot of pc gamers are using raytracing with dlss on. But my marry mother of """" if any developer puts reconstruction techniques on console with raytracing all hell breaks lose all the pc master race fanatics come out to protest.
Returnal is a good example of that upscaled 1080p that looks no different to native 4k is getting a bad rap all around the net for using reconstruction simply because its console. But pc master race use dlss allday with their chairman alex from digital foundry and its all fine and dandy.
Basically i dont care what technology is in use i care about the results and what the developers and artists wanted to convey and produce not the techniques. You can have a super computer and a trillion dollars to make a game pn it and still make a bad looking game.
I hate to say this but till today uncharted 4, god of war, the order, drive club, last 2. Are still the best looking game and the best use of technology. Until they make pc games that look like those with a quadrillion rays then ill be interested but sorry not cyberpunk or metro or minecraft or recently super mario 64 raytraced.
I keep forgetting to ask how much one of those blue tinted glasses cost that makes sony games look multiples times better. Are they fanboy exclusive?
