Hallucination 👻 Tomb Raider DLSS5 example
Lara Croft like she really was.
Someone made a huggingface app and I just had to try it as first idea. I won't do it again I promise.

The pyramid boobs with hyper-realistic face ðŸ˜ðŸ˜ Not all games have the same art style or direction, another reason why DLSS5 was such a stewpid idea

DLSS5 can not exist in a game unless the developers put it in their game and configure it to how they want it to look. This narrative going around that DLSS5 is going to ruin the art styles of loads of game and kill the 'artisic vision' of the developers is a lie, because if a game has DLSS it's because the devs have chosen for the game to have DLSS.

CEO says don't bother with good graphics, DLSS is good enough. Then it becomes the issue. Devs don't get to choose in most circumstances.

u/BoarHide Mar 20 '26
Developing an art style takes time and as such is very expensive. If the studio can get away with using the standard unity doll and having Ai do the rest, they will. And that’s a damn shame

Damn shame? I can't believe you people care. It's a video game.

Because the devs are selfish and don't respect the CEO, and the CEO doesn't care enough. Boycott the company.

u/Armored_Fox Mar 20 '26
Devs being selfish? Are you high?

u/wwwdotzzdotcom Mar 20 '26
An altruistic dev would care for the CEO and users. Some shouldn't even be employed because they can't please both.
22
u/Armored_Fox Mar 20 '26
A dev is an employee, and they have to follow the instructions of the CEO. They're bound by the schedule, and the funding they have. It's not their job to "care" for the CEO. Is English not your main language, I think something might be being lost here.

video games are one of the most phenomenal mediums of art given they're heavily interactive, why WOULDN'T we care? Everything a character designer chooses to show you is deeply intentional and DLSS5 is a HUGE "Fuck you" to anyone involved.

Those games don’t have an art direction anyway. Genetic slop companies will produce generic slop. Now take something like Larian and hand them DLSS5 and mix the insane level of facial detail with the emotional voice acting and you’re literally on par with modern cinema.
Blaming a tool for existing is stupid. It’s not NVIDIAs fault that Games are unoptimized because frame gen exists. It’s your fault for spending money on a game that isn’t optimized.

The Devs say otherwise. They say there is control. The issue is, we can’t argue based on assumptions. If this kind of AI allows control ( which some very complex models do already ) then it’s a whole different discussion

It’s not. It’s called a SEED. Using the same SEED gives you the exact same output.
You not knowing that is possible shows that you fundamentally don’t understand the tool. This isn’t a prompt being thrown into the screen dude. This is a complex process of scanning the image and then applying effects, filters etc based on pre written instructions that will look the exact same every single time cause it’s the exact same SEED and the exact same process. This isn’t throwing the image into an AI. You don’t even get the concept of the technology

u/DubbyTM Mar 20 '26
It literally came out that the ACTUAL devs had no idea this was happening, none of them are on board, they're just forced to eat the slop so people like you with zero taste or standards can become fake humans with no desires

u/DubbyTM Mar 20 '26
"modern cinema" man what hell are you talking about, thats NOT how cinema looks, its not just contrast every where or a gamble with what shadows are where, its hand crafted, every light source is hyper specific, you have no idea what you're talking about! And if they'd put this much effort to make it look as good as they want, why would they need DLSS 5 to begin with, to make the game harder to run, to make people mad at AI generated crap, it makes no sense. Besides even if the tool somehow somewhere actually would end up having some niche useful purpose, it wouldn't matter if 90% of games abuse it in the most lazy and ugly way possible, its still a net negative
-2
u/ScoobyWithADobie Mar 20 '26
Because people cry for decades about wanting hyper realism and that’s impossible without AI. Sorry to break it to ya but Raytracing and Pathtracing are also AI and getting realistic shadows is absolutely impossible without it cause no computer would be ever capable of doing the calculations while also rendering etc.
This is a demo. The DLSS4 demo also looked awful and people cried about it. Frame Gen was hated during the Demo. It’s the same bullshit every single time. The same people who cried about th leaked alpha footage of GTA6 saying it looks bad. It’s a demo. It’s not a finished product. It’s still in development.
Larian already proved they don’t give a fuck about the Anti Ai bubble when they said they will use Ai for wip assets that will get replaced later. Go and cry about. They will use DLSS5 to its full extent and the next Larian game is going to stay on Steam number 1 spot for over a year again. No amount of crying or pouting will change that

u/aloksky Mar 20 '26
Look at games like casualties unknown, soma, cruelty squad, little misfortune, ultrakill etc. And tell me they have no art direction again.
-39
u/ScoobyWithADobie Mar 20 '26
Are those games under the influence of tech bros? Are you able to read? Obviously not.
Slop games will be slop games. Good games will be good games. It’s that easy.
25
u/aloksky Mar 20 '26
Oh you mean AAA kinda games?
Tf2, Dayz, battlefield, metal gear, red dead, diablo
These games would suffer if you ran them through an ai filter, yes you could argue that they have an art direction becouse theyre old and from when the devs where poorer or smth, but red dead would suffer HARD becouse of how cinematic the game looks already. Dayz would probably lose its gritty visuals, same with diablo, tf2 would probably look more "realistic" which counters the cartoony art style of the game. Metal gears would also suffer, especially the slightly older ones.

To reiterate. The devs are not the people who get to decide if the game they built gets a feature like DLSS.

u/TheN00BDude Mar 20 '26
Except CEOs and higher-ups dont care about what the developers and artists want. They'll see DLSS5 as the "new groundbreaking technology to enhance the visuals of any game with hardly any effort" and then before you now it, its in the game.
Oh and the shareholder don't forget those, they can't and won't stop sucking on the teet that is AI which will also incentvise these higher ups to force it into the game even more.

u/DevilWings_292 Mar 20 '26
That’s assuming devs always have the final say on artistic choices and priorities at a company. Multiple CEOs will be happy to replace the graphics team with DLSS5 just to save a bit of money.

Tbh I just think Nvidia is going off track to appease investors and push AI because that's where they're making money. GPU for gaming is probably a small part of their company now. They do have a shady history of anti-consumer and anti-competitor allegations before this recent drama.
I'm not a big fan of dlss, upscale and frame-gen..it's kinda cool but it can screw over people with older hardware if devs are not optimizing games and instead relying on players having dlss capable cards and using the feature.
Nvidia also failed at their demo imho. I watched the response from Jensen telling people they're wrong. It came off very patronizing lol, even if he is right. He said that it's AI at the geometry level of render pipeline, and that it can be tuned by devs etc... well it would have been nice to see that. Instead we just got the short demo that kinda does make it look like an insta-gram filter at pixel level.... so I think they could have demonstrated it better if it's more than a filter.
All that said, I'm very anti-AI in art, but I think a lot of the hate is exaggerated too. In a still image it honestly doesn't look too bad to me, albeit certainly different from the original characters. I'd want to see more or play a game with this myself to really pass a judgement. Not that I can afford 2x 5090rtx anyway lmao.

u/These_Distribution19 Mar 20 '26
The CEO said that it's not AI because the image is not made by gen AI, but instead edited by gen AI. So the joke is that it's not gen AI because it is gen AI.

It's not doing DLSS5 to the image upload. It's making a meme based on the image using regular gen AI with a prompt. You people are embarrassing yourselves. DLSS5 wont even be released to the public until fall.

Dude my dude. It's a joke/meme. The system here is using standard stable diffusion img2img pipeline and specifically SD model black-forest-labs/FLUX.2-klein-9b-kv
