    Is there any settings that makes the game look like complete crap?

    3060Ti maxed out looks crap, something is wrong.

    No doubt the modding community will improve on textures (especially distance ones) and the color of the world palet. Still the game itself, the parkour and combat are what really shines in this game. It really is just a fun game to play. That's where its true strength is.

    Hm, me? :)
    At a first glance, it seems to work miraculously well, i.e. much better than DLSS. As the latter, for whatever weird reasons, is just broken in this game (blur or brightness flicker in motion).
    DLSS 2.4.3 Q:

    FSR 2.0:
    [​IMG]

    Both ReShade CAS strength 1.0. 52fps in both cases.

    wth, would have never expected that such a mod can look that great. So far also no extreme ghosting like in Tiny Tina Wonderlands to be seen.

    FSR2.0 looks sharper showing more details on textures atleast standing still but motion is another thing.

    On those screenshots, FSR 2.0 looks really good. Even better than DLSS.
    @aufkrawall2 could you take some screenshots that show movement. Maybe walking forward, or having some NPCs moving around.

    It looks good but the blades of grass are showing ghosting and a weird dotted effect, the tress aren't as full. I think you consider it better because of the sharpen filter, at least going by those images you posted.

    Can try, though the game doesn't have manual save with exact camera.
    But I can already tell you that DLSS is completely broken in motion in this game. If you move the camera just 1px, the whole scene flashes with blur, or when you increase DLSS sharpen, with extreme ringing. For whatever reason, FSR 2.0 doesn't inherit this behavior, even though it should be fed with exactly the same data.

    Yes, it's some specific brokenness of this game with DLSS. DLSS certainly would look much better than currently if it was fixed properly by the game devs.
    Maybe the devs confused something with DLSS sharpen, as it's also responsible for that temporal ringing issue in other games when kept active.

    Dlss should have sharpen option like Shadow Warrior 3. Idk why devs dont include it with all games. Dlss also looks great in motion only ghosting i noticed is in the grass.

    They added DLSS sharpen option via patch to DL2 (and probably broke it, I didn't notice the issue with release version).
    Uploading video showing the issue...

    Why DLSS is unbearable in DL2:


    I've also removed the game's own crap sharpen via mod (doesn't affect the DLSS issue). DLSS sharpen slider still works with FSR 2.0 mod and apparently uses RCAS instead. Works well enough so, I don't need to inject ReShade just for CAS. There is an issue of FSR 2.0 mod with particles originating from burning barrels, but it's not a dealbreaker. Otherwise, after playing for two hours with FSR 2.0, I'd still say it looks by far the best vs. TAA and botched DLSS implementation. Every TAA mode has some issues in this game though, apparently motion vectors aren't ideal.

    Edit: In some situations, moving objects show distinct ghosting/trailing. It's not as bad as in Wonderlands though.

    I have problems with the initial missions. I feel like I don't have the nerve to get through this game.

    I read that the game needs quite some time to become interesting. After the first three hours, I'm not really convinced vs. DL1, which was great fun after leaving the building for the first time.

    Btw: Does RTSS overlay work for you? I can't make it work with recent patch versions of the game.

    Edit: Btw: Techland support quickly answered my support ticket and said the DLSS issue was known and a fix is in the making.

    What do you mean bad? It has its bad times and good times(with RT). The lighting may look bland at times.
