appreciating nvidia and their techs are one thing, blindly calling every RT or any Nvidia implementation "brilliant, breath taking!! game changer!! literally unplayable without it, holy wacko them effects wow, it made my game go nextgen!!" types of statements are shilling. (not you)
he promotes even the most mediocre RT implementations like they're holy grails. his extreme bias is so easily noticable
almost more than half the RT implementations are so far subpar whether he you or others like it or not. there is only so much you can do with limited ray tracing performance.
Someone a bit mad?
Where exactly have I said games without RT are "literally unplayable"? Does it feel like a step down visually (in terms of reflections, lighting, shadows etc.) when I go from something like metro, CP, control to a non Rt game? Yes it does but it doesn't stop me from enjoying the game for what it is, gameplay comes first and the visuals simply help to get more immersed in the game and its setting e.g. currently playing riftbreaker and having a blast and it's RT implementation is a bit light on it but it adds so much to the atmosphere and really gets you immersed, seeing a meteor flying over you and RT in action there is a sight to behold.
There is no doubt, we are only at the tip of the iceberg for the RT experience (and only really made possible because of having DLSS, FSR/NIS) but thankfully, we get to have a taster of what's to come and it is already better than the ancient/old-gen methods. PS. Funny that every youtube, article talking about the "best looking graphics/games" happens to contain mostly RT games, maybe it's because of their RT.....
Also, there are plenty of RT games which have crap/poor/low RT hence why I only post games where it it makes a noticeable difference i.e. F1, forza (default game doesn't even have it in gameplay and even the mod to force enable it is rather meh), shadow of the tomb raider, BF 5
So posting videos, screenshots etc. is called "promoting"??? Again, can one not simply just like what RT does?
"almost more than half the RT implementations are so far subpar whether he you or others like it or not" = your opinion
Going by most peoples opinions, you're in a very very very small minority and given that the vast majority of game developers are adding RT in one form or another, including for consoles, it goes to show, RT is obviously in demand so get used to it amigo as this thread will only grow further
Especially when RDNA 3 gets a nice uplift in RT perf.
Kind of comes across like you don't quite know what to look for when it comes to RT, if so, loads of good articles out there explaining what it is and the advantages it brings as well as sites that do good comparisons to help people who either can't understand or/and see the differences:
