I'm completely speechless. This looks so terrible I thought it was a joke, but apparently Nvidia released these demos to impress people. DLSS 5 runs the entire game through an AI filter, making every character look like it's running through an ultra realistic beauty filter.
The photo above is used as the promo image for the official blog post by the way. It completely ignores artistic intent and makes Grace's face look "sexier" because apparently that's what realism looks like now.
I wouldn't be so baffled if this was some experimental setting they were testing, but they're advertising this as the next gen DLSS. As in, this is their image of what the future of gaming should be. A massive F U to every artist in the industry. Well done, Nvidia.
What of the agency of the players? Who will be sitting in the room and impacted, if this optional feature is enabled in the privacy of one's home? Will the artist, halfway around the world suddenly wail and fall over in pain because of personal preference?
I guess it's the same as when people put steak sauce on a steak, and all the chefs who love the taste of bloody meat cry that the meal has been ruined... Except they're not the ones eating it. They can enjoy their own creations however they like without getting all nitpicky about how others have their own preferences.
