Is it just me, or is it depressing that modern gaming has succumb to requiring AI gimmicks to run performant? Why does every new AAA title require DLSS and why would I want AI generating 75% (as I perceive the DLSS 4x, correct me if wrong) of the frames that induces artifacts like halos and blur anyway? What is it about these games that some optimization wouldn't be warranted for them to run without some AI layer on top to get 60 fps, let alone the 144+ fps that consumers now expect?
The entire industry has hit a wall and NVIDIA is insisting on coming up with infinite problems and selling solutions. They are trying their damnest to effectively take control and manipulate the market in their favor with these BS frameworks that are hardware locked.
Games are very lazily optimized for anything other than NVIDIA these days and we can look forward to the trend continuing now that AMD and Intel are having a very tough time competing. A popular theory is that everyone only like competition cause it makes their grand green gpu a little cheaper.
TL:DR is that NVIDIA can do whatever they want while players and developers follow blindly because neither Intel nor AMD match their market share. Its kinda like linux vs windows in a way. We are witnissing NVIDIA attempting to takeover the gpu market similar to microsofts early strategies.
NVIDIA bad and all that, but I wish that was true. If the game runs like shit, it runs like shit everywhere. What are these mythical games, that are optimized for NVIDIA in 2025?
I guess they mean they're optimized for Nvidia in the sense that they need upscaling technology in some form due to either demanding graphics or poor optimisation or both, and Nvidia has the best one at the moment. I wish it wasn't the case, but DLSS does look better than the alternatives.
