Five months ago, I made a short video joking about AI slop coming to Skyrim... but today, real-time DLSS 5 Neural Rendering in Skyrim VR is actually HERE!
DLSS 5 has sparked massive controversy across the gaming world, with critics calling it an "AI slop filter" that ruins original artistic intent. But on a heavily modded Skyrim VR setup, does that argument even hold up?
In this video, I test out the bleeding-edge DLSS 5 neural rendering pass inside the headset. While the exterior lighting and photorealistic NPC detail blew me away, the performance cost is absolute madness. Even my RTX 4090 struggled to hit 40 FPS, requiring a restricted central FOV pass just to function.
A huge shoutout to Troned for working on the Community Shaders fork to bring this implementation to life for modpacks like MGO.
Check out the gameplay comparisons, see how it looks in real-time, and let me know in the comments if you think neural rendering is the future of PCVR graphics!
