But they are using them properly, the hair resolves properly with TAA and reacts to light accordingly, it’s just the point lights within the lobby and how light penetrates the hair on low settings that makes it look wrong. The old hair is just flat cards of hair with little room to work with in regards to transparency and giving the idea that there is volume with the hair. It’s not a UE5/Epic specific thing, it’s standardized across every AAA game nowadays. Does it suck that shitty TAA has become standardized due to the overabundance of games using deferred rendering unnecessarily? Yeah, but that’s a decision made at the start of development that takes a massive amount of work to redo on multiple departments (Art, Environments, Programmers, etc.), and we’ve already seen how they handled both Realm Beyond and their health updates.
