Deep Learning Super Sampling Five

Support Us! Join The Hive!

This week, the crew gets completely redrawn on the fly by Nvidia's new AI-powered technology that everyone besides Digital Foundry seems to hate! How do they look? So lifelike, I bet. While getting yassified (and polluting water sources near data centers!), John, Niki, and Lotus discuss:

• DLSS 5 and its introduction to the world
• Why everyone hates DLSS 5
• Jensen Huang's hilarious responses to the criticism
• Saudi Arabia's EGDC acquires 5% of Capcom
• Remedy's FBC: Firebreak gets its final major update; commitment to stay online
• Ubisoft's Red Storm Entertainment studio to cease game development
• Crystal Dynamics lays off 20 despite working on two Tomb Raider games
• Rubato is a 2D physics platformer that scoffs at genre
• Should you play Slay the Spire 2 with a calculator on hand?
• Pokopia is a lot of game
• Funi Raccoon Game asks "what if Super Mario 64 was made by the most online people you've ever encountered?"
• Your Hive Questions straight from Discord, including our thoughts on Geoff Keighley's dad not getting a mention during the Oscars

As always, thanks for listening, leave us a review, and considering joining The Hive!
