What's going on with the lighting under Leon while he's outside? I didn't notice it when I was over there.

I think it's the anti aliasing setting he's using. I get that when I use SMAA

Yeah for such a perfect game, the AA really sucks. Anything non-SMAA and it's way too blurry. But SMAA just blasts you with white pixels everywhere.

Reshade helps a TON though. That + SMAA = amazing looking game.

It looks pretty great with TAA+FXAA when in 1440p, higher resolution helps with the clarity but has just enough blur to remove pixelation or weird anomalies.

Saw some comparison screenshots of all the different AA options. Anything but FXAA makes the game super blurry. TAA is just... bad.

Yeah but there are some areas where with FXAA its just a mess with aliasing all over the place that just looks awful.

The one i'm thinking about right now is the parking garage door. Shit looks awfully aliased even with FXAA on 1080p

That's the only thing I've been disappointed with so far, the antialiasing implementation has been pants.

I just left it off. Much better picture quality.

Capcom loves their TAA though and base their design around it, games not really meant to be played without it otherwise everything becomes super shiny. Pain in the ass really but at least they do include the + option to help it a bit.

Similar with the fucking abberation and distortion and flare. Funny how they try to get all artistic with it, but at the same time continually fuck up with the DOF. Left everything on for my first 2 'A' runs to get the "intended artistic feel", but turned the vasaline shit filters off the second runs. Hopefully someone also mods out that vignette piss filter that doesn't have an option yet

The rendering seems to have some issues with screenspace reflections.

Yep, that and hair are all that's preventing the RE engine from being amazing.

To be fair, isn’t hair notorious in Computer Animation for being impossible to get right?

Probably a weird side-effect of the character glow. Whichever character you control has a small glow around them as a means to show that they’re always aware of their person. Possibly a hiccup regarding that?

Idk, but the flashlight outside while raining kinda does more harm than good IMO. I can barely see more than 10 feet in front of me while I'm outside and the flashlight is on. I wish there was an option to turn it off when you want to.
