The very bad news is, Nvidia says turning DLSS 5 on will currently reduce performance by 50-60%. And that’s across the board—no matter the game.

When you see that still the most used screen resolution is 1080 and even the very few people who are upgrading, do so only up to 1440. It is easy to see that graphics stopped being impressive a while ago. It seems that a long time ago people were still arguing FPS vs Resolution. FPS wins every single time. 24fps is fine for movies, it might add to the cinematic look. But in an interactive medium, FPS is king. Give me low latency and fast response times over anything else. People don’t notice when games look like shit, but they do notice when the gameplay is laggy or buggy. Most friendslop (compliment) games are very simple and basic in their looks, but still capture the gaming and streaming culture for months at a time. While AAAA games are now struggling to stay relevant beyond the launch week. It is the same trend as with movies. Blockbusters break records and then nobody ever remembers they even watched it. I guess that the algorithmic fragmentation of culture is finally catching up with us all.
Also, a growing number of research papers show that people rarely notice differences in screen resolution beyond 1080p, or even less, depending on screen size and viewing distance, so most people who go for higher resolution are enthusiasts who do so either as a placebo or to brag about it, instead of actual enjoyment. The general public doesn’t care
You take that extra “A” back! Those guys dont even deserve the 3 they already have!
I’m not playing friendslop for the graphics.
just like I’m not playing Cyberpunk for the gameplay.
Graphics very much have a place. FPS doesn’t trump resolution always.
None of what you said is wrong but I think it’s a bit simplistic to compare it to a resolution jump or to bring up Indy graphics vs AAAA as a sign that nobody cares anymore.
FPS is indeed the real killer though, you can’t really run this without high end cards and the difference is simply not worth the price for most people.
