Control also convinced me that DLSS was actually useful. I was hoping it’d usher in an era of running games with high settings on low end hardware but instead it just kicked off an era of devs not bothering to optimize games.
Yeah I was specifically thinking of Remedy with Control as a shop that makes good use of the tech to put forward an aesthetic that isn’t just flash and chrome.
But I believe they could make a beautiful game with a Voodoo 2 lol, they’re that good.

It’s a photography/film technique
Games do it to “cheat” realism
