Yes it was a nonsense reply to a nonsense comment because I already told you I didn't like the game and yet you think I'm missing out by not playing it
Ps. I wasted £12 getting diablo 2 reforged because I was bored after about 10 minutes.
I don't think these ARPGs are for me. They are literally all the bloody same.
Nice one mate, that was the only thing putting me off on first launch..
Installing
I had to jump back in to check as was not paying attention for ghosting of particles previously
Oh yeah I mentioned NV filters is the best and easiest way to remove the yellow colour cast in this game, here are my settings, it's subtle but gets rid of the yellow.
Oops forgot about this, I was curious so tested it out and yep even on a 4090 there's a 10-12fps drop by enabling a simple Game Filter in Nvidia Game Filters. This would have happened in GeForce Experience too but never really noticed it due to being above 100fps anyway. I think I'll put up with yellow cast now that it has been brought to attention lol.Figured it out...
Adding the HDR profile and it's fine, adding the colour setting on top and it then drops some of the base frame rate below DLSS+Frame Gen. So instead of 80fps with DLSS, it's only 50/60. So I then have to turn down the ULTRA settings in the game.
But using Sharpen in game doesn't drop the frame rates, but the nvidia app does
A few ms in frametime latency doesn't amount to anything really, if it is 10ms+ then maybe sure.
I did discover something though, the power usage difference for the GPU when using DLAA vs DLSS is pretty high:
DLAA: ~311 watts
DLSS: ~230 watts
So really, given that there is zero meaningful image quality difference between DLAA an DLSS (actually DLSS is slightly sharper...) it makes sense to use DLSS, GPU fans run slower, GPU runs cooler, GPU draw less power - A win win?
I've now done the Gaia bit and am trying to find the underground entrance in Las Vegas so calling it a night there. The combat has become more fun, whereas before I wasn't levelled up enough, I would pick and choose my battles with machines, now that I;'e upgraded a bunch of weapons, and found that the shock arrows and explosive spears are pretty devastating, this has adding a level of additional fun that makes combat exciting and no longer a need to pick and choose, just march in and start throwing things around
24.8 hours play time so far.
Just play it in SDR, looks great
