They're um, pretty blurry...

Only the environment is blurry, the character is clean, so this provides to the shot a photomode effect with dof enabled. I quite believe that is how mckmas8808 has understood my shots, and I posted them for that main reason.
And I personnaly think that these shots are indeed the best BB shots I've taken so far. The character is popping as never in the first shot, it gives a 3D impression, more depth, something in perpetual motion, I don't know how to express that feeling otherwise.

@mckmas8808 : thanks for your comment, you have caught what I wanted to express with these shots. And I hope many will do.
 
Yeah, not a big fan of DoF myself to be honest, unless it's used sparingly. Not when the whole background is blurry. But that's just me I guess.

Edit: btw, I greatly preferred the following two shots that you took, they're really really good and don't have the headache-inducing exaggerated blur to them. :)

The art in this game is amazing. Love the id Tech 5 engine, so wholly unused and it is a shame, so capable.
Yeah and it runs at a perfect 60 FPS, too. The only blemish is the very obvious aliasing, some shots I wanted to post but the aliasing is just a bit too visible and it bothers me... ^^ But the texture quality is quite solid, I really like the graphics in the Wolfenstein games.

Well, I might as well post them anyway, just try not to look at the jaggies too much xD

I understand your position about DoF, but eyes are working on Dof mode always enabled, the shots are mimicking human eyes focalising only on the character, nothing more. I know that you already know that... Nevermind... This is just to remind you.
Scientifically, shots with DoF are more accurate to reality (more natural) than shots without DoF.
 
Yeaaaah but that's a limitation of human vision which is a weird thing to try and reproduce, lol. Kind of like how CA is a flaw in photography that you wonder why they reproduce it in games.

Plus, honestly, there's a difference between, say, this:

which is subtle and gives a nice "photographic" effect without really sacrificing detail, and this, which honestly just gives me a headache, sorry:

Like I said, your other shots were great, I just don't care for this kind of dizzying effect. ^^

Dof is Dof, my shot is showcasing a depth into the field, foreground clean for the character, background blurry for the environment. The same layout is seen in the uncharted shot you have posted above.
 
Now I can also understand your aversion for DoF, I noticed many people don't love it, I'm ok with that in the sense that many people are also in love for it as seen above.
 
Dof is Dof,
I disagree. Not all DoF is equal, not by a long shot. It's like saying "bloom is bloom" or "lensflares are lensflares". Sometimes the effect is subtle, sometimes it's exaggerated. Sometimes the effect smoothens (sp?) the visuals to remove flaws whilst still preserving some integrity or introduces an aesthetically pleasing effect, sometimes it looks like vaseline has been smeared all over it and it just ruins the environments.

That's pretty reductive. The difference in the resulting effect between the Uncharted short and the Bloodborne shots are huge and I already explained why.

For more examples, see this post of mine from last month in the PC screenshot thread:
http://www.neogaf.com/forum/showthread.php?p=197095942#post197095942

Huuuge difference in the resulting screenshot quality. And you had at least two people voicing their agreement.

Anyway, you're obviously free to take whatever shots you like however you like, I'm just explaining why I disagree with your reductive statements about DoF.
 
sorry my English sucks but Dof is blurring, right? in uncharted photomode it is not degraded is the on / off which is a bit of a problem to manage ..
and I agree with you on the Wolfenstein graphic engine that is very nice <3
 
Who will be the fastest to download Final Fantasy XV Platinum Demo and post screens from it? And which version will be the first to be shown here? PS4 version is 3.5GB while XBox One is 4.5GB.
 
Nice Lighting!

Edit: Oh pls post pics of
that titan when you reach him. From the trailer for this demo you meet him while in a cave and he takes a peek at you
