I personally like CO and motion blur is cool when it's done per object.

that's ancient. the modern horsemen now are TAA, DLSS, Raytracing and Debra Wilson

What’s wrong with SSAO

>handcuffed in a prison with a guard walking you to your cell
>WHY WON’T THE GAME LET ME GO BACKWARDS THIS IS BULLSHIT I CAN’T BELIEVE THEY DIDN’T PROGRAM 916 DIFFERENT PUSH ANIMATIONS AND AN EVENTUAL DEATH SCENE WITH A GAME OVER! I SHOULD BE ABLE TO ACT LIKE A RETARD AND THE GAME HAS TO LIKE IT!!!!

If the intent is that the player has no control, why bother making the character respond to controller input?

>>714128960
Because then you don't have to engage

>>714128808
>letting the player feel the freedom of controlling their character, only to have a guy pushing you in the direction of your cell over and over again if you so much as deviate a few degrees off course, and he just keeps doing it! he keeps pushing you towards your cell! over and over and over... there is no escape from the story being told to you; play your part, or get off stage.
some dev thought this event would be a good idea.

it really demonstrates the futility of modern storytelling, forcing the player to essentially watch their game rather than play it. what a fucking joke.

why would SSAO be bad?

>>714128531
the plot was contrived, the setting wasted, and it stopped being good around that Christmas event episode. Not a very good anime.

What is motion blur even for?

>>714129286
to help with lods changing to this hi-res version? idk

>>714128808
It's just lazy. You're shown (told) that this is a brutal prison, where a submissive prisoner is getting beaten with a club.

And here you are, trying to escape while the guard magically pushes you. He should push you down, kick your stomach, then frog-march you down the hall, and if you resist further, you get beaten more.

And you start the next section with less health or a debuff because you got your ass kicked.

>>714126017 (OP)
No magic frame creation?

Sounds like the design is perfect for a prison scene then, no?

>>714129286
emulates what you experience in real life with quick motion.
but it was not really accurate until per-object became a thing

>>714129286
There was a time where there was a concerted effort in the field of graphical development to reproduce the flaws present in cameras. Even though there's no reason for these flaws to exist in 3D rendering at all. See also: lens flare and chromatic aberration.

Dumbass developers largely seemed to like it because A) it made their games look more """cinematic""" and B) it made it easier to hide real graphical flaws like jaggies.

>>714128808
if you're going to make a movie game just commit and take away the player's control constantly
the people that care will just hate the game even more and the people that don't enjoy eating shit anyway

>>714130053
>but it was not really accurate until per-object became a thing
When I first saw this I was interested because I thought I could finally quit experiencing motion sickness with MB, since now the entire world wouldn't distort when I moved. Then I played CoD Cold War (a game which uses per-object MB) and got so sick I had to lie down for 2 hours. I couldn't see the MB but my brain could.

>>714130587
Your eyeballs and brain already "blur" shit for you, man. You don't need a computer to do it too.

I bought doom 2016 on sale and instantly my eyes just fucking hurt. Idk wtf is causing so much strain on my eyes but even turning off chromatic abberation, motion blur, and AA I get a headache playing it. Im in my 20s too and this doesnt happen with AA or indie games so something fucky is going on

What is SSAO it just looks normal

for me it's depth of field

>>714131225
This anon
>>714130717
hits the nail on the head. We don't need the graphics system to show us how shitty camera's and the human visual system is.

>>714126017 (OP)
Chromatic aberration is the most retarded of the effects. I can understand trying to mimic realism, but unless the game goes for a video camera effect, like Kane and Lynch 2 for instance, it makes no sense at all.

>>714129286
Making low framerates on consoles feel less awful.

>>714126017 (OP)
You forgot anti-soul gas, which is worse than all of these except bloom.

>>714131140
tries to emulate accurate light levels for surfaces based on Occlusion, specifically the tight or narrow spaces like underneath a seat or inner fender above the tire.
Only reason someone could hate it, is if the implementation is too aggressive or inaccurate.

>>714128808
Why did a funny webm make you lose your shit this badly?

But enough about Code Geass.

Ambient occlusion. It's the subtle shading you get on surfaces based on their angle and distance from one another, meant to emulate how certain grooves and surfaces are occluded from ambient light. It actually looks really good, has been a crucial part of graphics since Crysis and does not belong on that list.

However, the example in OP's pic is particularly bad and there are a few games like that. In OP's example it's just drawing a black halo around the entire object. What it should be doing and usually does is draw AO only on proximate edges, i.e. between the tyre and the ground, not between the roof of the truck and the ground several feet behind it.

>>714126017 (OP)
Outdated

>>714126017 (OP)
I hate Bloom and Motion blur more than bad SSAO.

>>714126017 (OP)
Bloom, SSAO and motion blur can all be done well and can add something to the image. Chromatic abberration literally never looks good though and has no place in video game graphics, there is no reason to ever use it.

>>714132846
very subtle CA can give a game an intended uncanny vibe. Bloodborne got the closest to using it right.

>>714128531
It's screenspace so it tends to add black outlines to surfaces that aren't actually close in world space. It also doesn't work on object that are culled, resulting in some bad artifacts sometimes.

>>714131847
Retarded post, filmic tonemapping has nothing to do with washed out colors. It's the people in charge of color grading who don't understand it and suck at their jobs.

>>714132846
I like when you play a robot and chromatic aberrations are used to indicate damage.

>>714126017 (OP)
CA is a screenshot ruiner, but it ackshually looks good in motion. Motion blur is the only thing I really hate, and the PS2 was the first time I really saw it.

Anyone else feel like after the brown n' bloom era games got too colorful? The village in VIlage really surprised me with how much visual clarity there was in the set pieces despite a muted, mostly brown color scheme.

>>714136645
Not really. Photorealism is the new trend these days.
I wouldn't be opposed to brown and bloom making a comeback

>>714136645
>visual clarity

they use a bunch of effects to make it not clear. even in your picture the edges are dark.

>>714136645
as a gen 4 chad, colorful games are the norm.

>horsemen

>>714128808
Then why even let the player interact with it at all? Sequences like that are the developers begrudgingly forced to make a "playable" section that interrupts their movie.

>>714131225
depth of field was created because everyone has ADHD so when they see a background like that, it makes them want to pause and count how many leaves are on each branch of the background foliage
