Horizon Forbidden West Complete Edition | NVIDIA DLSS 3, Reflex, DLAA - Announce Trailer | CES 2024

Screw ray tracing, those resources would be better used to do something impactful like increasing the draw distance by 400% instead.
I want at least RTGI but I was going to say what you're saying.

The number one thing I hope gets fixed is the draw distance at max settings.

I don't doubt that this game is great looking but you didn't do it any favors posting these. The close up shot of Aloys dish is decent enough, the rest not so much.
now that's a hot take lol. but to be honest - ps5 BUTCHERS screenshots. THese are all 500kb each... hdr shots get converted to compressed jpg when you copy.
That said - few more

It's a fantastic looking game, we all know this..but it would look even better with RT, that's why people want it brother.

I'm sure it looks fine native, im on a crappy work monitor.

I see they kept the totally impractical and fucking stupid head gear from the first one. You'd have a neck like Mike Tysons if you where rocking that thing as your daily driver.

If it doesn't look fine to you because of compression... i don't know what you are happy with lol.
Hey - it's the only head gear I liked

Yea thank god they give you the option to turn head gear off though. That was the first thing I did.

Imagine thinking rtx is the only way to achieve good graphics. Maybe it would be 20 years ago. Right now we have tons of different methods into nice graphics where-in rt is not day/night difference.
This is your game without RTX on a peasanty ps5 running at 40fps (if I remember correctly when I took the shots)
DUDE WHERE THE RT BE AT (the game uses tons of different bakes for different times of day, so it looks like if there was rt most of the time)
This is a gorgeous game. Even more so with hdr

Now show us indirectly lit areas, caves, underground robo-facilities, San Francisco ruins etc. Lighting is all over the place in that game, RT would help make it look more even.

Again, disappointing as hell.

Why don't you stick that san francisco ruins up your ass.
Chrsit, you people arent happy with any graphics.

Fine. get that 4090. Get that horizon, put that dlss3 on it. Apply oversharpened reshade to it and post "wow such next gen p ultra max graphics" videos on youtube. Pc gamers are the worst fucking whiners

Is that why you’re in every PC thread whining? To prove you’re not a whiner?

I whine because pcmr people are fucking idiots. My pc hate is something totally separate mind you :p
They will get game 2 years later and they they will boast how amazing it looks.. while it looks the same and they pirated the game.

You guys are down on this but I will prolly pick this up when its cheaper, mostly because the visuals tbh but I did have some fun with the first game even though it's not exactly my type of game nowadays...and Aloy was so fucking bland.

DLAA will look incredible though! Recently played Death Stranding at 4k with DLAA and it was so clean

DS is just a much better game tbh, can't wait for DS2.

You never fail to disappoint, you special boy. I love your utterly ridiculous opinions. This forum needs more clowns like you to bring in the traffic. Keep it up!

So you’re gonna prove to the world console fanboys arent whiney idiots by having extended meltdowns in every thread with PC in the title. Winning strategy.

Aloy was such a cunt in this game everyone is willing to help her with their lives and she treats everyone like shit
Yep. It's shocking how Sony studios continue to make their protagonists unlikeable. Aloy, Abby, Ellie, Atreus, and to a lesser extent Peter in the latest game but at least he was under the influence of symbiote in the game and its only for around 1/3rd of the game.

Who expected RT on this game?! lol!

4090 will barely hit 60 without frame gen and DLSS as it is.
No idea why that is a negative? Frame gen is the future to include any other AI/ML accelerated technologies. Gone are the days where exponential performance gained is strictly by hardware design and manufacturing process.

I knew exactly what would be happening in this thread before I even clicked on it. Not disappointed.
Quick summoning ritual:

PC is the best.
Forspoken is bad.
RTX is amazing.
Alan Wake 2 looks good.

Stand back boys, this might get nasty.
eh-meh.gif


It's a second derail, of the first thread derail (Aloy's looks), that happened in the first few replies.

At this point I'm waiting for someone to randomly bring up TLOU 2 again.

The good thing is that with mods you can replace character model with someone you actually can stand to look at.
Already have it on PS5 but never finished it. Hmm, mods could be interesting if I decide to keep going. Need to see a DF video first, the first game had lots of issues around launch.

Rofif has gone mad and is going to get himself banned one day for good.

RTGI, reflections and shadows are considered PC specific features nowadays and if Sony is wasting millions of dollars porting over and risking their precious IPs then they simply have to get with the times. Releasing games on PC without any RT features is just inexcusable at this point. Especially when they bought a new studio exclusively for creating high quality ports.

Even fucking returnal added RT features and it was done by an outside studio. Nixxes had to implement RT features on PC for spiderman 2 so they have some experience.

The fact that this took 2 years to port and is being released as a barebones PC port is really weird. Rockstar gets those double dippers because they add real value to their games on PC. Yes, they take their time but PC gamers know they can expect stuff not available on consoles after that delay. Not seeing that here. I dont care for Sony porting over all their games to PC but if they are going to do it, they need to do it 100%.

This game is going to go up against Cyberpunk, Avatar and Alan Wake 2, and while I still believe it can compete in some aspects, they are doing themselves no favors by not supporting RT features.
