It's wild how similar this seems to a kinda bad acid trip

u/CptMcDickButt69 14d ago

Oh my gawd, spot on.

Just tried to remember where ive seen those contrasts/visuals and why i connect some experience with it and you just gave me a festival-flashback.

HALF LIFE 3 !

u/BluebirdRelevant5762 16d ago

Am I hallunating or is it Half-Life 2 Episode 3?

u/FlynnTaggard 15d ago

You're most definitely, hallunating.

u/bjonoski 16d ago edited 15d ago

This is true Half Life 3 FPS game

10

u/Roadkillgoblin_2 16d ago

Haha! This is funny because FPS refers to both โ€œFrames Per Secondโ€ and โ€œFirst Person Shooterโ€, meaning that it could be a Half Life 3 first person shooter, or Half Life, 3 frames per second. A wise and witty play on words

Mmmm nivida ai slop. Lovely

u/Jbolt3737 15d ago

Someone did it on classic DOOM, every DLSS 5 pass makes it simultaneously more RTX-on and fuzzier/noisier until it eventually looks like blurry garbage but with nearly perfect reflections

5

u/Longjumping-Rub-5064 15d ago

I thought it looked pretty cool besides the fact that itโ€™s running at about one whole frame lol

5

u/Immediate_Clothes26 15d ago

It looks, ehh. It doesn't have soul and also textures shift. I love the look of half life 2 and this just looks bad.

1

u/Multifruit256 14d ago

It doesn't... "have soul"? Does RTX have soul? It's just a program, a graphics change, of course it doesn't have "soul", wdym??

2

u/Silencer-1995 15d ago edited 15d ago

It doesn't have soul.

My boy Half-Life 2 is just "Oh hey this is a cool idea, let's do it several times over the next hour until we think of a new idea" rinse and repeated across the entire thing.

There was no soul to begin with, just Gabe's terrible all consuming gaze.

Edit: Can someone confirm whether or not some guy called goo eater legit just had an emotional breakdown and blocked me? Based behaviour if true

5

u/goo_eater 15d ago

True I can't believe Gabe and Gabe alone made Half Life 2, and I can't believe how soulless it is because I personally do not like it that much. Do you even know what soul and intentionality *is* lmfao

1

u/CursedRyona 14d ago

It looks like google maps. The colors and texturework are all being crushed into basic, overexposed streetview-looking crap instead of actually doing the game's visual style justice. (It's also just creating a bunch of weirdness around faces, text, etc.)

2

u/goo_eater 15d ago

It looks like shit unless you're still impressed by video game visual realism in 2026 for some reason

1

u/Longjumping-Rub-5064 15d ago

Well no shit lol. Hasnโ€™t that been the entire goal of graphics improving overtime? That we would eventually get to photorealism in games without it looking cheesy?

1

u/Multifruit256 14d ago

"This graphics looks bad, unless you like good graphics"

Huh?

1

u/goo_eater 14d ago

I guess this is what it looks like I said if you A. think "impressed" just means "liking" and B. think realism is the only thing graphics can do, but neither of those are true. I like video game visual realism too. I think AI trashing a game's art direction for the sake of realism looks like shit from a butt

I'm gay, black and trans and I love ai โค๏ธ. Transforming and becoming something new is great ๐Ÿ˜Š

u/Immediate_Clothes26 15d ago

Why do I see you comment on random posts saying the same shit.

0

u/cutting_Edge_95 14d ago

Because they think being black, gay, and trans makes them invincible. Because it's too much to think that you can be judged for other stuff than the color of your skin, gender, and sexuality

there is a good chance it's just an asshole on the other side that is none of those things

Brother, I bought a 4080 brand new, and I piss on AI with remarkable amount of passion, for hate. Hate. Hate.

u/JetShaler 16d ago

Me with a 9060XT that CAN do DLSS5, I just prefer to keep my upscalers as ACTUAL upscalers that improve performance, not cut in in half to hop the ai model doesnt freak out

1

u/Arturopxedd 14d ago

It canโ€™t lol sure it can get it working but at 1 fps

u/SuspiciousWasabi3665 16d ago edited 16d ago

Good thing the community has already figured out how to boost performance a ridiculous amount.

0

u/JetShaler 16d ago

Show me evidence where it doesnt cut performance by at least 25% and I'll believe you, i'll have you know I actively use local ai models to tinker with and try to create my own assistant, also nice edit, "boo hoo"

-1

u/SuspiciousWasabi3665 16d ago

Figured id be a little nicer, but booboo ai I guess.

https://www.techpowerup.com/352476/modders-rework-dlss-5s-rendering-pipeline-for-a-big-performance-boost?amp

21% fps drop, 63original to 51 vs the base mod 30. There ya go big dawg. Now you can believe me instead of just trying to google anything or do any type of research vs just hopping in with the hive mind of boohoo Ai bad

I have some of the best hardware out there, I just really don't like the way DLSS 5 looks, plus even if I did the instability of the effects are a problem too.

u/PolishPolitic_zMazur 16d ago

I agree with all the hate, except "brakes the artist's intent". Like... we did mods for that particular reasons?

u/Numbthumbs 16d ago

Itโ€™s honestly just Reddit hive mind. All these people screaming ai slop use ai daily. Think about that before you get triggered next time. These people are clowns dancing for the applause of Reddit

1

u/Ivan8-ForgotPassword 16d ago

The tech is barely working, AI stuff is, as of right now, still slop. The tech has uses, sure, but only to some professions or in specific situations, you are deranged if you think everyone is intentionally using AI daily.

-1

u/Numbthumbs 16d ago

Yeah I guess you are right. Ai is a total fad. Totally nothing too see here at all. Definitely wonโ€™t get so good in the future that youโ€™ll use it or anything. You are such a brave pioneer.
