Kingdom Come Dev Defends DLSS 5 Slop Filter, Calling It an 'Uncanny Beginning'

Daniel Vávra, head of Warhorse and Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2, publicly defends Nvidia’s DLSS 5, calling it an ‘uncanny beginning’ that could eventually replace costly ray tracing and be trainable for specific art styles or faces. He rejects the idea that DLSS 5 merely redraws a 2D image with a soap-opera filter, while critics argue otherwise; the piece sits amid broader backlash from developers and analysts about AI-assisted visuals and the tech’s potential impact on game design and industry dynamics.

DLSS 5 defended as artist-guided AI, not post-processing

Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang defended DLSS 5 in a Lex Fridman podcast, saying its generative AI enhancements are 3D-guided and artist-driven rather than post-processing. Artists train the model and can prompt for specific looks, with the system designed to enhance existing geometry rather than rewrite it. The feature is optional, and major publishers have partnered to push it in upcoming games, but gamers remain concerned about potential visual homogenization.

NVIDIA DLSS 5 Upscales Real-Time Frames Using 2D Imagery and Motion Vectors

DLSS 5 is described as taking a 2D frame plus motion vectors as input and using an AI model to output enhanced frames in 2D, with underlying geometry and textures unchanged; NVIDIA says this 2D-only approach is more efficient than full 3D rendering. The tech will offer developers controls for intensity, color grading, masking, and where enhancements apply, though it remains an early preview.
