The anniversary party has a huge fountain at the ballroom. Its the same ballroom from the quest "Partycrashers".I'd be happy if they optimized the graphics in some of the newer content. There's places in DDO where a 4090 will drop to below 40 frames it's designed so poorly.
Just like to hear what ppl think about this.
For a game that is this old it doesm't look all that bad imo and if we say that the whole game was to be redone graphically to be state of the art graphics for the latest hardware out there I actually think it would loose some of it's charm.
Although it would look awesome (obviously) it might loose that "special" feeling or at least to me. Would I play it? Yes I would. Would it still be great? Yes, if the gameplay wasn't altered from now I think it would. If they changed the actual feeling of the game I think I would loose interest after a while (unless it somehow became better).
Even bigger question: What for ? What computer (that would support either of these technologies) struggles with performance in this game ?My bigger question; "Is SSG working on DLSS? FSR?
I forget who said this -- might have been Cordovan during one of the Friday at Four streams. Basically, there's a large number of players who still play DDO on the equivalent of a toaster today. So anything that would require a hardware upgrade, or even a change to the minimum version of DX, would affect a large portion of the playerbase.unfortunately there is no "simple" answer to this. I use AMD's upscaling, which is a mixed bag of results for DDO. That being said, prior to building this rig the game always looked washed-out. Now, I enjoy seeing the game in it's full glory. (it's kept me here).
My bigger question; "Is SSG working on DLSS? FSR? Ray tracing isn't a big deal to me, but the benefits of these new techs don't end at RT. There's things a game company can do in 2024 which weren't possible 2 years ago. But how viable is it for SSG to invest $ in any of these new tech's?
The other end of this spectrum is players being able to afford investing in a 2K or 4K rig? **If SSG did everything they could, how many players would be able to spend $ on capable gear?
Ah yes the Z-fighting textures of headache-inducement. I love Ravenloft but the castle is so full of these its almost nauseating.The texture overlaps are a bad one IMO. Even if they didn't do anything else, these should be fixed @ a minimum!
