25 games.... is that it?

not all on the list even have it yet 
RTX is a white elephant developers are even dropping it & going back to pre-baked shadows! If anyone buys an RTX just for RTX enhanced games they are seriously deluding themselves 
as not a single game looks noticeably night & day better than a game with pre-baked shadows & HDR!

yes, this is why I’m looking at the RTX 3080 as an upgrade from my GTX 1080.
Problem for Nvidia is that the better it gets there is less reason to upgrade if your GPU supports it.
Problem is only nvidia have the hardware to make use of it.
Amd keep saying they are working on it but none of their cards have the hardware for it and I can't see them matching dlss 2.0 on nvidia cards no matter how much they work on software/drivers.... Ultimately, it will be RDNA 3 till AMD can offer something to compete on the DLSS and ray tracing front.

Which will probably about the time we'll have the hardware to run Raytracing at 4K with decent framerates
RTX & DLSS are ONLY exclusive to Nvidia to justify the silly prices people keep paying! Neither would be required if developers stick to pre-rendered pre-baked shadows if they all did that any GPU from the last 4 years with 8GB VRam is all you need even for 4K as the game engines are quite primitive graphically nowadays
PC gamers are effectively paying for RTX & DLSS
yet not a single game looks noticeably better with it Batman Arkham Knight on PC @ 4K max everything runs flawlessly on a 4-5 year old GPU for instance

You're telling me a 5 year old game runs flawlessly on 5 year old hardware. I'm stunnedBatman Arkham Knight on PC @ 4K max everything runs flawlessly on a 4-5 year old GPU for instance
Yup I don't disagree on the RTX/ray tracing front, unless the in game engine reflections have been downgraded to make RTX/ray tracing stand out more i.e. cyberpunkRTX & DLSS are ONLY exclusive to Nvidia to justify the silly prices people keep paying!

Only problem is, console games are adding ray tracing now....
However, DLSS 2.0 is pretty good regardless of RTX/ray tracing being turned on, still not as good as native res. or a match for having a superb superb scaler like seen on lgs oled but if you need extra performance and don't want to turn down graphical effects then this is where dlss 2.0 is very good.
TBF, it is still one of the best looking games imo. The lighting and reflections are stunning and make cyberpunks standard/non-rtx reflections etc. look rather poor given the performance difference and the age gapYou're telling me a 5 year old game runs flawlessly on 5 year old hardware. I'm stunned

You are not missing anything I've played the RTX version and didnt notice much difference.
I paid £8 for a key from CDKeys for the Deluxe (Worldwide) version and installed it from Bethesda so it is Version 1.09 (1.08 added RT) but I cannot get my saves to work on it.
The MS saves and the Bethesda saves are in same folder just a different subfolder, it even imported my profile so I had all same settings and character choice set up so I moved my saves across and I get a profile corrupt error and it makes a new profile for me.
Not sure what to do as CBA doing the 1st level again, end boss was hard lol.

How so? Did you expect it to change the fact the game is based on crafting with blocks? Are you aware only certain maps have the RTX
DLSS won't go away, it will evolve. As games require more power, a card that might start to struggle at 4k, rather than take a dip in visible image quality you can take advantage of DLSS and have a smooth experience again. Some will happen at 8k, DLSS is needed to make a game playable, then when 8k is the norm they'll do it for 16k.
Yeah maybe I should have worded my post better.
Nvidia's implementation won't last long when there is an open source method, which can be used by all vendors as isn't "DLSS" nvidias closed source version of what is basically AI super sampling?
