>You need path tracing and 5090 to get functional reflection in your video games

Good, the fake RT in RE4, 7 and 8 was fucking sad.
Proper path tracing is welcome.

Well kinda yeah. I think some earlier Hitman game faked them by just rendering the room twice. There are other fake solutions but the real deal is going to be costly at first.

I'm still on a 1080 and my gamble is to skip 10 more years

>>718421706 (OP)
just buy one i bought one for 2400 dollars

>Enables path tracing on an rtx 5060 ti or 4070
What now gay boy?

>>718421950
I'd wager rendering an small room twice is less resource intensive than path tracing, the problem is that it isn't prebaked into the engine so it requires developers to do actual work, my guess is that implementing this in a couple places would cost around 10 or 20 million dollars since it would take 30 developers a year to do (99% of that year is them browsing reddit in the work computers)

If you're lucky, there might be 5 new games that are actually worth playing and buying new hardware by then.

>>718421706 (OP)
what a shitshow

is pathtracing able to turn me into anatomically and biologically correct woman?

>>718423694
And now every CPU on the market has a 3D VCache. Whaddaya know, turns out we really did need it.

>play with ray tracing on in RE4 Remake
>think certain areas look really ugly
>play without raytracing
>same areas look way better
Dogshit tech, I hope it collapses the industry

>>718424050
it's not about the quality it's about being able to turn it on and still have a barely playable framerate to show that youre not poor.

>>718424050
Because they never used proper RT, it was some dogshit software solution for consoles ported to PC.
The stuff in OP is the real deal.

>>718424050
That's not an rt issue, it's capcom gooks not knowing how to do it properly. Also blame amd, they sponsored it in that game
It's only like -10%/15% to performance turning on rt in sh2 btw

>>718421706 (OP)
Yes. Functional reflections that do not rely on performance-killing tricks like rendering the same room and actors twice, or the low resolution and low quality render target camera method do require raytracing, or pathtracing for even better results. Yes, you will need to not cling onto your 2500ks and 1060s and will need to get a job.

>>718424050
RE Engine has fake RT. Compare something like Cyberpunk 2077 or hell even GTA V Enhanced with RT on vs off and see the difference yourself.

>>718424831
>RTX off

>>718421706 (OP)
and the reflection has zero impact on gameplay

>>718425515
Atmosphere is a big deal in horror games.

>>718424760
>>718424831
Literally would not be able to tell you which one was RT and I have 4070TI Super. I know the games look good in motion but outside of a couple of wow moments I don't get the hype.

I get the logic behind it when it's the only option like in Indiana Jones, it saves a lot of dev time, but I don't really care for it myself

>>718424373
>performance-killing tricks like rendering the same room
Retard
>>718425764
>I have a "shit poorfag gpu"... I don't get the hype
Absolute sour grapes retard. You are holding back the game industry.

>>718423989
But how did they do it without? It's 3D VCache™ by glorious AMD®, but it was done before 3D VCache™ existed. AMD® should sue everyone who made games before 3D VCache™ came out. They should also sue anyone who uses Micro$hart Winbloze lol.

>>718427552
4070ti super isn't a poorfag gpu. It can competently do raytracing he's just not using it.
