Oh ya so immersive it’s like I’m looking at a movie.
UBrain move.
There are effects, like lens flare, shallow focus planes, vignetting, even color misrepresentations, that were kind of side effects of the physics of photography, that have grown into creative tools people deliberately chose for stylistic reasons.
Has anyone with a camera ever deliberately wanted a lens to have chromatic aberration?
I mean for some stylistic movies I think yea, fear and loathing in Las Vegas amps it up during the ether binge if I remember right.
But it’s not something you should try to emulate in games any more than film grain or something. And it has no place in anything about ancient Egypt.
OK, if the goal is a drug trip, I can see it lol.
You said it yourself: these are creative tools people deliberately choose for stylistic reasons. I have a couple junk lenses I use specifically because they have chromatic aberration and other imperfections.
Photography, however, is a very different beast than video games. I will never use chromatic aberration or film grain in a game, despite enjoying those effects in photos.
Only the shallow arty-farty wannabe types, as far as I know. Meanwhile the rest of us spend thousands of dollars trying to remove such effects in our photos.
I didn’t even know there was another assassins creed game.
I’ve read the other day that they have… 11 Assassin’s Creed games incoming or some shit.
11 new Assassin’s Creeds for 2023 and beyond
That’s a bit much.
Meanwhile, I’ve ve been done with this franchise since AC3…
Jesus that far too many. I hadn’t really played any AC until AC3 either but last year I got like black flag for cheap on the switch and it wasn’t bad.
If you have played an assasins creed game, you already played it.
It’s safe to assume that there’s always a new Assassin’s Creed game
Ye gods, that is almost as bad as Denuvo.
Ubisoft, what is you doin?
how are people liking the game? the reviews i’ve read seem pretty positive so i was hoping to pick this up at some point
Just be aware that Ubi sneaked Denuvo into the game in a day-1 patch
That’s interesting because I watched the Neon Knight video[1](https://youtu.be/Z99vjFdcR0g?si=gcbF0UbpysAGMXg2) on it and was left with zero desire to play it.

Here is an alternative Piped link(s):

I’m open-source; check me out at GitHub.
First step after installing a new game: disable Chromatic aberration, lens flare, film grain, motion blur.
Also:
Set FOV to something more inline with my screen and position.
Shitty console ports have this locked in, usually to a very low value that might make sense when you play from the couch but too low when playing in another setup.
It’s getting better.
I got a PS5 as my first console in over a decade and most new PS5 games have the options you listed
There’s still older ones tho where theres literally just a single toggle or not even that.
I don’t understand why these games keep including “movie like” features. They’re video games, not movies.
Even in movies they don’t want those things, you know how expensive true apochromatic lenses are? Meanwhile games are adding lens defects in. -_-
