Will gamers feel the same when Crimson Desert launches later today?
In a nutshell: For years now, Crimson Desert trailers and teasers have looked so good that many thought the game couldn't possibly live up to the previews, much like when No Man's Sky launched.

Sounding off: I went hands-on with Nvidia's DLSS 5 across multiple games at GTC and the "it's just a face filter" isn't the right take. The improvements to shadows, water, foliage, clothing, and even a coffee maker in Starfield are just as impressive as the character enhancements.
