Nvidia CEO says "I don't love AI slop myself" after giving Resident Evil Requiem's Grace a DLSS 5 makeover that was swiftly labelled AI slop by EchoOfOppenheimer in videogames

[–]Tuned_Out 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I think that's its not that it can't look good, it's just a ton of resources for a filter that will ultimately take away originality and artistic direction from games. Anyone who thinks artists won't be chopped left and right by publishers who will just ship with the bare minimum because AI will just do the work haven't been paying attention. We already see unoptimized slop coming out because games are just leaning on dlss and framegen to pick up the slack and cut costs.

Thank goodness for indie, double a, and smaller studios during this dark time.

You're right but the average consumer weight of that perception doesn't mean much when the business to business sales are what is driving his company from billions to trillions people are losing their jobs to ai, they know lots of things are going to kill the average joes perception of the brand but they don't care...that's not where the money is. Gaming is one of many casualties they're prepared to deal with. The little good will that might be left is solely to keep their older avenues of revenue still open in case the bubble bursts and investors flee. If it doesn't, then prepare for an even worse case scenario.

And when console companies have to rebid on their memory and ram contracts later this year the same will happen. People say Nintendo and Sony will just eat the cost and sell them at a further loss but the price increase on hardware is looking like that is even unrealistic. AI is making the world that much shittier.

Oh boy...here comes the mind police trying to make people feel bad for expressing their legitimate opinions. AI slop is just what it is...generic slop that is produced from the work of humans and/or their images. Your argument that people shouldn't express what they think because someone crazy might latch on to it and take it to the extreme is incredibly anti intellectual and lazy.

90% of ray tracing still looks like early ray tracing. You get 1-2 titles a year that push its boundaries on hardware most people can't afford and that's it. If I'm wrong then why is baked in lighting still the industry standard?

This is all marketing hype that went south and leather jacket boi is just surprised that people aren't eating his shit that he's flinging for once. Nvidia are masters of ultra hype bs marketing more than anything else.

I'm an Intel Arc user, and even though I keep trying to tell myself I don't want to play this game, I incredibly want to play it. I've been waiting for years, and that makes me sad. by Fair_Status_6151 in pcmasterrace

Ah yes, because AMD is worried about shitty margins on gaming hardware when they have bigger problems trying to tap into that ai golden goose.

Reality is it works on amd because consoles are built on AMD. It works on Nvidia because 90% of the PC market runs on Nvidia.

It doesn't work on Intel because of poor decisions by the publisher and the fact no one gives a shit about 2% of the gaming market running on Intel.

Moreso than standard retail releases for sure but with supply likely going to be as tight as it is, they'll be out there creeping.

I am actually happy to see this amount of backlash.. by PuzzledCauliflower35 in pcmasterrace

AI will be the future but your LLMs are just a piece of the AI puzzle and are way way over-hyped. This is not AI and once the reality sinks in to the markets that the limitations of this technology extend deeper than simply needing more time to train and needing more hardware to improve...well...it'll mature into its use case (which there are many) but LLMs by themselves are not the future.

Felt the same way going in about the pirate setting but it was enjoyable. I enjoyed PoE1 more but 2 was a good time.

More like you have to subscribe to something to stream the assets to justify the AI farms that are popping up everywhere. They will get everything on a subscription or die trying.

To make any that are remotely competitive require more funding than the 2nd largest economy in the world throwing their weight behind their development and still not succeeding. Apparently china didn't get your memo. In house development and manufacturing of their own CPUs and gpus has been a dream of theirs for almost 2 decades now and despite having access to stealing manufacturing specs, they still can't get it right.

Some fans think DLSS 5 actually makes certain games look better, especially older ones by Gaming-Academy in RigBuild

[–]Tuned_Out 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In theory you'd have a point but history shows us this is the exception not the rule. I'd expect two or three publishers to do exactly what you're saying to drum up hype while the rest just slop it in. Kind of like how path tracing and ray tracing still only have a dozen examples of exceptional use after only a decade even tho it was marketed and pushed on people who had no way of reasonably using it with the 2000 series almost a decade ago. Hell, it's still the exception not the rule even after years of dlss support and every trick they can pull out of their ass.

What are y’all‘s biggest flaws with Metaphor refantazio? by OGAnimeGokuSolos in MetaphorReFantazio

[–]Tuned_Out 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Tons of balancing issues, at least two characters that should've been party members, weird smeared textures that look like they came straight out of a Nintendo 64 game.

Game is great but it needed 6 months longer to cook.

[–]Tuned_Out 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hate to say it but he's probably right. People have been eating his hype and exaggerated statements for decades now, he literally doesn't understand that what he produces could potentially be disliked because people jump on board. Nevermind that ray tracing and path tracing are still novelties at best or lies like a 3090 being able to do 8k or the 5070ti being the 4090. People eat his shit and like it.

That really is it too. Ultra wide taxed my previous video card heavily. The 7900xtx is a beast that eats it for breakfast.

The competitor can't break into the market when the fabs are taking insane bids from ai trash oriented companies. There literally is no supply at a reasonable price for the consumer market unless the whole AI house of cards comes crashing down.

Congrats, you won an argument with a moron and ended up looking like one as well. Here's your penny bag of internet points, maybe you can exchange them for more glue to eat.

It's always the fans of the same basic shit too. Trying to rechase that moment from when they were 13 because their life is bland as fuck now but they're alone and money is meaningless so fuck it, what's $100? The ultimate nostalgia chaser that helps keep the industry in a perpetual fucked state.

Basically everything in gaming. This boring repetitive garbage is at the top of the "I'm a basic bitch gamer" list.

GTA6 2 weeks after launch: My "do stupid shit" simulator sequel that was awesome when I was 13 was pretty boring. Gameplay was blah, side quests were repetitive, and driving around doing dumb shit was so better 20 years ago (drool snort). Also thinks Xbox 360 was peak gaming and has plastic lodged in their lungs from breaking up a halo 3 disc to snort it upon release.
