2015 Console Screenshot Thread (PS4, XB1, Wii U) [READ OP!]

Does the exact opposite for me. Distracts me from the game and the actual graphics, which are already pretty great in that game.

Unfortunately, they are the part of the game and not from ReShade. But they only appear that strong on certain race tracks.

FAST's post processing looks really bad. I think it'd look much better without any of it except for maybe the motion blur, which probably needs to be toned down too.

The game (or parts of it) runs in some form of interlaced mode (probably to save on precessing power) which creates a pattern of vertical lines in the picture. It's probably best to blur the hell out of it so it doesn't become too apparent.

Okay, what does everyone else think about them being show here? Or have a dedicated thread for them?
It feels a bit weird, as this thread was about how the games look on the consoles natively, where a screenshot was just a copy of the image seen on screen.
But if in general people are okay with them, then that's cool, don't mind me.

I think it deserves its own thread, honestly. I thought this thread was dedicated to showing pictures of what the consoles and their software are capable of in real time, through gameplay and their own, native photomode if available. When we start running it through outside filters, adding another layer of post processing, it is no longer a picture showing what the console and its software can output.

Quoting myself here from when a similar question was raised not too long ago in this thread.
As long as they're achieved in real time, I don't see a problem. And unlike the vast majority of photomode shots, you can actually play 'enhanced pics through capture cards'. As long as people mark them as such of course.
But hey I'm also the guy who would prefer this thread without photomode shots and only allow gameplay shots.

Photomode is still showing what the console can do with what the developer created. Adding an external device to provide further post processing is no longer showcasing what Sony, Microsoft, and Nintendo's hardware and the developer's software together alone can create.

That's a pretty worthless argument in my opinion. You could render a pixar movie quality screenshot on these consoles for example, just not in real time.

And if a developer created a Pixar-grade looking software in its photo mode, then we would definitely see its screenshots in this thread. Anything that is output by a console game's engine belongs here in this thread, but adding additional hardware to alter the image is going beyond that scope and doesn't belong, IMO.

That asshole's still easy on NG+3, except for his goddamn broken grab attack. Ugh. Only way to survive that is by wearing the poison resist+300 rune, that way I survive the attack with a sliver left and don't get poisoned so I can heal it off (providing he doesn't attack me spastically after the fact).

+1. But people should always write [photomode] in the title of their screenshots when it's not in game.


2 pictures / post please (rules have changed).


Aliasing in photomode ? oO
