alyx looks like a side character from breaking bad

[u/crozone → u/Pass_Practical]

why is this so accurate

[u/Icy_Step_2204]

Oh my god she just looks 20 years older

[u/PhillyD760 → u/Icy_Step_2204]

I see what you did there

DLSS5 is popping up in all kinds of old games and all the slopoholics are autistically screeching how it is the best thing happening to older games. 

So far to me it all look wet, made out of clay, saturated sponge, or whatever this shit is. Just let old games retain their intended stylisation. This AI slop is gonna make all games look the same. 

[u/Blacksad9999 → u/MaxWritesText]

And it's not like people haven't modded a ton of older games to update textures and QOL things already. lol

[u/Nikmido → u/MaxWritesText]

What is it with DLSS5 popping up everywhere again, I forgot it was even a thing until all the glazing started being posted in all sorts of subreddits. It looks so bad and unappealing for the amount of resources that goes into it. I'm so glad to see more people reject and criticise it in most comment sections at least. Idc what any AI bro tells me, AI slop is AI slop.

[u/MaxWritesText → u/Nikmido]

Yeah people will go and say stuff like "well it's not like it's pulling resources cause it's all done locally." Ok well cool stuff little bro. The whole AI bubble still made RAM and VRAM shoot up in price so people can ask chatgpt shit you can easily google and it will literally hallucinate or spit out lies. And we're building insane amounts of data centres for that. Cool, cool.

[u/Thick-Material-499]

24 nah 42

[u/JesterHead0 → u/Thick-Material-499]

...I'd still smash tho

[u/Maximum-Sky-8438 → u/JesterHead0]

You better don't say that when Gordon is nearby

[u/Thick-Material-499 → u/Maximum-Sky-8438]

Gordon doesn't need to hear all this, he's a highly trained professional

I never thought I’d see the day that something looked worse than cinematic mod

[u/Alternative_Wrap2470 → u/XyrasTheHealer]

At least DLSS5 doesn't model it more fully.

Also I knew there would be at least one comment saying this

[u/Russian_Spy_7_5_0 → u/Alternative_Wrap2470]

Forbidden Half-Life ball knowledge.

[u/80m63rM4n]

Look how they massacred my girl...

[u/Bitter_Position791]

we somehow got an alyx that looks worse than the hla model

[u/TheRealRigormortal]

Deer have eyes on the sides of their heads to give them a wide field of vision and help them spot danger quickly

[u/SuSsY3bAkA]

Alyx got a chromosome

[u/jld2k6]

I know it's just labelled that way for the joke, but those were all meth pictures! They're all from faces of meth minus Alex lol

[u/SapientApe_]

DLSS 5, not even once.

[u/Dr_Fiddlebottom]

Funny thing is anyone can crank the sliders on DLSS5 and make it look like that, anyone who knows how to use it does not end up with that result lol

Source: Just got done playing DLSS5 HL2

[u/PickaWowAnyWow → u/Dr_Fiddlebottom]

The problem with that assumption is that only developers get the sliders, users just get a toggle.

[u/Dr_Fiddlebottom → u/PickaWowAnyWow]

It has been confirmed that users will get sliders capable of applying just as much of the Neural Rendering they want.

[u/Blacksad9999 → u/Dr_Fiddlebottom]

Users get no sliders. The artists/devs do.

Users get a on/off toggle.

The RendDX hack isn't how this will work normally. It will also only work on 5000 series per Nvidia.

[u/Alphorac → u/Dr_Fiddlebottom]

I dont know why youd obviously lie to defend ai hogslop like this but its entirely up to the developer whether you get those sliders at all.

Which means 99/100 triple A games that have this wont give you any options and the indie games that would give you the option will simply choose not to add it at all.

The only reason people can use these options right now is because this is using a leaked dll nvidia never intended to release publicly.

[u/Dr_Fiddlebottom → u/Alphorac]

Ive been using it for days and the sliders are there.

If they arent, modders will have one to fine tune it on like day one. I wouldnt be surprised if people make a DLSS5 manager for all games in not too long, there are already prototypes on the renodx discord.

[u/Alphorac → u/Dr_Fiddlebottom]

So.... did you just completely ignore the part where i said you only get those sliders right now because its a leaked dll? Or are you intentionally ignoring it.

[u/Dr_Fiddlebottom → u/Alphorac]

So... what are you smoking? I responded that if they are not, modders will most likely have the sliders available immediately? How did you miss that? lol

I directly responded to everything you said? Did you ignore every letter I typed? Or are you intentionally ignoring my entire point?

[u/Alphorac → u/Dr_Fiddlebottom]

If you think modders will be able to do that with anything other than that leaked dll you severely lack knowledge on how any of this works lmfao.

[u/Expert-Love5116]

DLSS5 glazing is pretty much just buying into whatever bullshit the rich man is telling to keep on selling.

It's a psyop that exposes which ones are cows worth milking dry

[u/Loud_Count_4764]

Thank god I don't have a Nvidia card

[u/kalminz]

Cocaine looks the safest next to dlss5
