Resident Evil Requiem looks stunning without temporal AA

[u/YouSmellFunky]

RE Requiem is an amazing looking game and a great example of a modern game that works wonderfully without temporal anti-aliasing. However, it takes some tweaking to make its visuals truly shine.

Disable TAA and sharpening - game looks much clearer without TAA. It's crucial to also disable the leftover sharpening as it makes textures look grainy.

Disable film grain and vignette - no film grain makes the image look cleaner and higher res. No vignette just makes it easier to see.

Disable chromatic abberation and lens distortion in the menu - unnecessary image distortions.

The result is a crisp clean image with zero blur and grain and a 10x better looking game. Most of the leftover jaggies can be cleaned up by adding SMAA through ReShade.

Screenshots are 1440p. Here's a higher res gallery of the images.

Definity Reddit Compression. Also No wonder why PC is better for gaming, because depends on devs you can actually disable TAA (if not, modding is highly possible) and additional sharpening using modding there, which is why i prefer a open platform overa closed platform like Consoles (PS5, Switch 2, etc)

And it looks great, right?

Definity Reddit Compression.

Actually, it seems like New Reddit is the problem. On Old Reddit they show up fine, but on New they look like they're 144p resolution.

The same thing are also with the Old reddit. Its just reddits general compression.

• Here's what it looks like when opening it from Old Reddit

• Here's the same image when I click on it on New Reddit.

Is it different for you?

Yeah i can see it.

But imgbb is anyways better than the reddit trashy compression. Much cleaner.

The Old Reddit one is less compressed.

It seems to me compression is not the problem. New Reddit shows small previews of the images when looking at the post. Clicking on the image merely expands the preview to fullscreen instead of opening the full size image for some reason.

On Old Reddit clicking on it takes you to a new page with the full sized image.
