Would have liked to see more comparisons between the PS5's TAA injection vs it's implementation on PC, as the few examples they showed indicate the PC's implementation of Insomniac's reconstruction may not be quite up to how it works on the PS5. This scene in particular has massively more breakup on the PC with IGTI, especially in modes that more closely reflect the base res of the PS5's RT performance which doesn't exhibit these artifacts at all (FSR 2.0, even in quality also exhibits these to a lesser degree).
Bear in mind Analista's video was was done without the latest patch which is why the RT reflections are so noisy on PC, this apparently has been fixed. Perhaps the problems with the reconstruction flickering (outside of DLSS) are also fixed, who knows. As usual, best to wait for DF.

It's better that Insomniac's implementation on the PC going by that video - in most cases FSR 2.0 shows more artifacting than the PS5 does, especially when you go below quality where it really breaks down (and where the native res is closer to the PS5's RT Performance mode).Also apparently dsr2 is better and there was opinion consoles doesn't need much dsr2 as they already use similar reconstruction techniques
Edit: As per @Dictator, this is likely a result of the pre-patch footage, so ignore.

Yea, just looking at the video the PC implementation of IGTI clearly isn't the same as the PS5 version and is inferior.
Good question.. maybe it has been addressed now.
Kind of a messy situation for reviews and reviewers... but this just goes to show how dev doesn't stop and these things can change right up to the last minute..
Now though we get to see another aspect of Alex's tech review, and that's the comparison between the reviewed version, and the patched version.
Most of this footage is not using the proper Patch which fixes Things Like RT, DLSS or other aspects of the visuals. This Video is Not showing the Game as it is really
IGTI in PC is the same as PS5 IGTI - source, Nixxes in an Interview with us.
The El Analista de Bits Video Looks to be Made of a surprising amount of footage Made before monday's patch, let alone yesterday's patch. Moday's Patch fixed things like DLSS, RT and even IGTI...

Caught me before the edit , lolGood to hear made efire modbays patch.
(Yeah I got the gist, thanks)
Love that you got this confirmed directly with Nixxes. Can't wait to hear what else they have to say and see the full analysis.
It's things like this that cement DF as the gold standard for these types of analysis.
Is the interview going to be published or was it just internally for DF staff?
It will be published as a text article, it was an hour long though with 4 speakers including me, so it may take a bit to get up to snuff.
That's my question too. Seems very rushed with a "We'll fix it as we go" type attitude... which I hate.
Surprised link hadn't actually been posted.
Explains delay, but also actually decent read in general.

To be fair to other comparisons you have to bite the bullet and put out your comparison at some point.
Nixis could be dropping a patch almost every day by the looks of it. Once you have the day one patch all bets are off

New game patches keep arriving - but here's what we think so far.

DF are using the day one patch as the basis I believe. It'll take time to get all the footage ready off the back off that though - especially to the level of quality Alex produces. I guess a lot of other vendors have used unpatched footage which isn't really that useful.
DF heads up article probably better than must full reviews.
Oh release date is the 12 Aug.
Sounds like they've been dropping patches like crazy, but since it's not released yet that's fine, unless they said a particular patch is the day one patch.
It just makes reviewers work harder, as then you may as well wait until after release.

Hey @Dictator have the patches fixed some of the texture related issues I'm seeing in some vidoes? In some instances the texture quality it noticeably worse on PC than PS5.
Yeah noticed that in some videos as well. In the above the PC has higher res hand textures, but the radio is far blurrier. Guessing this is LOD/texture streaming bugs.
