that leaf ghosting makes more scary than actual game

[@VASILISPAGOURAS7]

its 2024 deal with it mate low fps shimmering ghosting input lag stutters are just new features technology getting better and better you are living in the past

@@VASILISPAGOURAS7 You say this as a joke but a lot of ppl sit and claim this is amazing and the future and that we should be thankful. What a joke.

[@indigo_ym]

@@piecka32it was a recording artefact, In game there is no ghosting. If this is not future, feel free to play 1/3 of fps in native without any visible improvement.

[@piecka32]

@@indigo_ym All sane people will, the graphical improvement for the fps loss resulting in a need for upscaling is miniscule. I'd even say in the very first example it changes the tone and mood of the entire scene, that room is way too bright.

[@d3rd3vil]

Yes I like it. A case could be made that the darker scenes might fit the game more in some areas. But overall with raytracing you got the correct lighting everywhere and everything properly reflects in glass and puddles and shit with every branch of every tree and so on. Its damn good and we need it in every game no doubt about it!

[@memoryboy]

4K DLSS Performance with hardware lumen is how I play it, shader compilation and traversal stutters are a big problem though.

This fkn UE5 engine stutters getting on my nerves ngl

[@Astro_BS-AS]

Try disabling HW GPU Scheduling on W11 Display settings. It helped a lot with stuttering

[@memoryboy]

@@Astro_BS-AS Yeah someone mentioned this on reddit, I'll try it.

[@ttghhgg1918]

@@muramasa870 i have a 4060 n i have yet to get any stutter in any ue5 game n i play at 1440p everything ultra with ray tracing from hellblade 2 to casting of frank stone , robocop ,nobody wants to die. If u dont have a 4080 or 4090 everyone should use gsync n vsync both combined along with in nvidia control panel capping fps 3 below the monitor refresh rate like 141fps cap n ingame if there is a fps cap put that at 60 fps n low latency mode at ultra its a soft cap fps n 99% of the games i play runs butter smooth n somehow my games runs smoother than people with a 4070ti n mind you 4060 is a 8gb gpu. N you should never ever use more than 60fps for single player games as if u cap it it reduces latency and also removed all the small stutters n hitching

[@MrFlamethrower32]

UE5 being a stutter fest? Who coulda thunk it!?

[@xAndrzej42]

So just increase gamma setting for that RTX feel. Got it bro :D

[@XiLock_Alotx]

A very good implementation of RT. My 4090 shines with this title. Performance can get a little a shoddy in certain areas of the game. Heavy FPS drops with or without RT. Optimization is desperately needed. With that being said, I am loving this remake. True to the original

[@ralfsta]

4090 will shine with literally everything being the best possible gpu money can buy

[@ReachTea]

Is RT on/off really accurate, though? It's Software Lumen VS Hardware Lumen, both are Ray Tracing I could be wrong though 🤷

[@tomthomas3499]

No RT literally gave me chill whenever one of those leg thingy running and hiding, proper terrifying horror game, with RT it reduced it into survival action game, same with Until Dawn which is darker in the original perfectly captured the mood while the remake with UE5 is too bright.

[@alvarg]

what bothers me is that if the devs took a bit more time they could actually make the differences a lot closer by adding in extra area lights when ray tracing is off, but as it is the game kind of requires it to look correct

[@Glotttis]

Looks like game was build from the ground up to be played with RT off (software lumen), and RT on (hardware lumen) is just a quick late addition to the game for 4090 users. You can see how all interiors are glowing with RT ON (hardware lumen), it appears like it wasn't implement correctly (probably just a side job of one employee and they ran out of time).

[@msnehamukherjee]

You don't need a 4090 to use RT. I use it on my 4070 and averaging 70-90 FPS at 1440p DLSSQ.

[@Glotttis]

@@msnehamukherjee My man you aren't averaging 70-90 FPS with your mid 4070. There are benchmarks out there from reputable sites and 4070 gets about 53fps average at 1080p with RT (which is about the same as 1440p with DLSS quality). Why do people on the internet always have to lie when information is easily verifiable.

[@Spaceman69420]

​Yeah it's only about a 10fps hit with RT on with my 30800​@@msnehamukherjee

It‘s a stutter fest right now. I hope they fix it

[@xAndrzej42]

Thought its just me noticing this game looks like its running in 20fps while showing 60fps.

[@ghostwalkergaming5856]

There's weird stutter pockets in buildings that lag like crazy until you leave them usually around save points and stairwells

[@jonathaningram8157]

all moderns games are... at least for me. I tried playing hogwarts legacy and it was a nightmare.

[@Name-tn3md]

Try lower texture streaming speed ​@@jonathaningram8157

[@XiLock_Alotx]

Almost every single UE5 engine game has this traversal stutter. Really wish EGS would fix it already

[@reptarrepresent3292]

Why the hell do game developers keep adding chromatic aberration into video games. Photographers spend all their money getting a good lens to reduce it and game devs add it in intentionally smh

[@GForceIntel]

2:34, that's not how reflections look on a window or glass.

[@martinschnabel1961]

Now that I tried RT, I can't play this game without, interior is to dark then. I do get between 55-70fps with shadows low, shader medium@1080p on a 6700XT, pretty good and I am surprised. No supersampling. This is in town, didn't try the forrest.

[@Artek385]

You need HDR display and you can set it as you want. After calibrating it for more bright appearance it looks pretty dope. I can't decide if I want to play max with RT + FSR3Q or without. My XTX with caped clock to 2.5 GHz did similar to 4080 from this video. OP 10th gen is holding him back as my zen3 is holding me :) All is cool but traversal stutter is just bad and distracting.

[@bmthnumber1]

First game where HW lumen makes that much of a difference no? I've never such drastic change before in UE.

[@gametime4316]

ty, i was the one who asked for that video. RT off = lumen on right ? if so lumen look really bad in this game, especially indoor but no only... and the performance hit is really no bad for that visual.

[@MxBenchmarkPC]

RT Off = Software Lumen. RT On = Hardware Lumen.

[@gametime4316]

@@MxBenchmarkPC amazing how inaccurate Software Lumen looks indoors. I remember Alex ( from DF) say Software Lumen look too dark but this is crazy !

[@adamkoushi6056]

What's lumen ?

[@MxBenchmarkPC]

@adamkoushi6056 it's an advanced lighting system for global illumination and reflections.

[@rudrasingh6354]

@@adamkoushi6056 UE5's softwre ray tracing lighting system that generates a lower detailed(signed distance fields) mesh for everything in the scene and does RT on that then applies that data on final quality mesh. There is a hardware mode as well that uses RT cores in Nvidia gpus and whatever AMD and Intel have for RT in their gpus. Simplified explanation.

[@born_to_play]

Great video but you are CPU limited, maybe is time to upgrade the i7-10700F.

[@malikon6953]

amazing the ray tracing reflects a tree in a puddle through the fog. Looks good but I'll wait for a Steam sale. $70. for a remake is nuts.

[@nickhunter8704]

This game was built from scratch, all handmade. In some aspects its harder than making ur own game

[@Astro_BS-AS]

It's because the fog only exists on James's mind ... /S Or is it???

[@dmitrypoletaev7478]

Which one is a more authentic option in terms of aesthetics and gameplay?

[@MxBenchmarkPC]

Hardware Lumen.

[@ChrisJamesBueno]

Are leaf trails a UE5 bug/issue or its fixable via DLSSTweaks cause I know some bugs are caused by DLSS like flickering when Bloom is turned on with DLSS (need to change preset to fix it) and such.

[@MxBenchmarkPC]

That's a DLSS related bug, should be fixable via DLSSTweaks.

[@s9209122222]

Does Lumen really work in this game? It shouldn't be that dark indoors.

[@elinbarrage9638]

sadly there's lotta difference in intertior scenes...

[@Schizm1]

Kudos to UE5 (I know, stutters are still shit) because software Lumen really produces a nice quality of GI in comparision to software accelerated one

[@LoreLenore]

Easily one of the best looking games of this generation.

[@Glotttis]

Let's not get carried away. Even in this subgenre there are better looking games, like Alan Wake 2, which does a lot more complex things visually. Even RE4 Remake looks better than this (and is soooo much better optimized).

[@LoreLenore]

@Glotttis I mean, I was not going to put a particular limit on best-looking games. Those 2 games definitely look just as, if not more, amazing than this game. There are many great looking games this gen, just as there are many mediocre looking ones.

@@Glotttis no lol RE4 no looks better. SH2 waaaaaaaay better looking game. Play it and not comper on yoytube. i play both 4k + RTX. SH2 superior RE4

[@kuba23602]

I had to refund this game because it keeps crashing, at the beginning whenever, I would start a new game, does anyone have the same problem ?

[@walter274]

I see their strategy. Make the game so dark without RT that you need to go buy a new GPU.

i cant use ray tracing because i switch to dx11 and if i use dx12 it keep crashing on startup i have rtx 4060
