    That looks awesome. I have been on the look out for RTX remixes some are pretty nice and a great way to introduce someone who is a graphics snob to older titles. Quake 2 RTX was fun and I think portal really benefited from the RTX graphics. The RTX reflections in the GTA:V:E are very satisfying I love all this. Don't know why lemmy is a bunch of pointless assholes who seem to hate something for no reason. God forbid other people fucking enjoy something, cunts.

    It's called Raytracing. RTX is just a marketing term Nvidia uses for their GPUs, GTAVE has nothing to do with it.

      I am well aware of what ray tracing is. Which is why I know RTX is not simply ray tracing and I can refer to it. I am specifically referring to RTX technology and not ray tracing in general. And heck throw DLSS in there too fucking love that shit. Is it wrong to be impressed with the game I have been playing for ten years because they not only gave us a graphics improvement but also a noticeable performance boost?

        There is nothing specifically "RTX" about the reflections in GTAVE.

          It still it is using RTX tech even if it isn't advertising it. Because RTX is the marketing term of the underlying technology for that ray tracing on Nvidia GPUs. So I am still right to be impressed by its performance. I probably didn't need to bring it up in my post and left it at the stuff titled RTX. RTX. (and I cannot speak to AMD or Intel GPU technologies, and I don't see anyone else either)

            Half-Life Alyx looks fantastic. It's a modern but faithful representation of the Half-Life universe. You can jump from HL2 to Alyx and feel like you're part of the same narrative and story. Even though there are almost two decades in between.

            Half-Life RTX has more polygons, higher-resolution textures and a much more resource-hungry lighting system. The entire Half-Life universe was cast as a cameo to star in another guys remake.

              I understand why some might feel it looks good, but it actually really ruins the feel of the game. Darkness and contrast is a good thing.

                Main takeaway is the HL2 still looks pretty good

                Completed it last week for the first time and it really does look good. There is so much that's right in the game. There's a reason people still cry out for another HL game and raytracing isn't it.

                  If you haven't tried it yet, the HL1 fan remake/remaster Half Life Black Mesa is great, one of the best games out there in my opinion.

                    I've started it but only got a couple of hours on before being distracted by other time sinks. I mist have gone through the HL1 starting train ride more times than I've had hot dinners.

                      So misleading that the RTX shots also use the re-mastered assets making it look like it magically makes the entire game higher res. Reminds me of those clickbait 3D modelling tips videos where all they do is use a ton of subdivision, yeh it looks smoother, its also got like 8x the geometry to work with.
