Yes it looks good but have you switched between SDR and HDR? Though to be fair I think part of the problem depends on the device you use. Screens seem to be handling HDR differently and HDR gaming monitors seem to be all over the place. Some HDR screens are so bad in HDR your eyes hurt/water, others are washed out in HDR. Neither of which is a pleasant gaming/TV experience. I think once HDR standards settle down its going to be well worth it. But right now there are a lot of people finding some HDR content is looking worse then SDR. But when it works correctly it is a massive improvement.
HDR being all over the place is one of the reasons I haven’t brought a HDR device yet. Going wait a generation or two before getting one for TV/films. As for HDR gaming monitors still not found a decent one that fits my specs, so I think I have to wait a generation or two there as well.
And that there is more often than not the problem, the HDR displays.
Unfortunately the vast majority of displays out there especially "HDR" monitors are awful, they shouldn't even be allowed to advertise HDR as a feature when they are nowhere near meeting the HDR requirements
I've seen far too many people say HDR is **** all because they saw it on a "fake" HDR display.
There are a number of articles eg
games-look-bad-part-1-hdr-and-tone-mapping
on how hdr game animation have yet to catch up with the cinema experience games they call out
Battlefield 1,
Uncharted: Lost Legacy,
Call of Duty: Infinite Warfare, and
Horizon Zero Dawn
(as Pottsey said)
but the hdr game experience (vs sdr) will be much more diverse across tv brands due to the tvs tone-mapping technique, since for sdr everyone has brightness/contrast/colour-spaces that are closer/exceeding specs
Not had time to read the entire article, but what display are using to base their opinion on this?
EDIT:
Just had a quick skim through and see it is just a general article about tone mapping etc.
They should compare different TVs for HDR gaming to see which is best. As shown by HDTV tests, some TVs look better in certain areas where as other tvs look better in other areas.
As for HDR gaming, not played anything on my set yet due to no console and no GPU capable of it but I wouldn't be surprised if there are issues with HDR in some games (especially by lazy/**** developers). One thing for certain is that PC gaming certainly doesn't look to be smooth sailing when it comes to HDR, where as consoles seem to handle it flawlessly.
