What the fuck is chromatic aberration?
>>737835267I need this in my games, in fact, i need it as default.
>>737835076blurry color shit that doesn't belong in video games but 99% of indie retro-psx-vhs-crt-hrt slop will include anyway
>>737835267So they put something in the game to make it look like shit? Why?
>>7378350761) it's a shitty image filter2) an actual scientific explanation is that the different wavelengths of light have different refraction index which causes colors to be refracted by lenses at different angles, making the corners of the image look bad from the lens effectively acting like a prism at the edgeIn photography it is a solved issue because chromatic aberration on XY plane is easy to correct, only longitudinal chromatic aberration is hard to correct.In other words, the devs who use it are RETARDS that never took a picture with a good lens and they believe that CA makes the image look more CINEMATIC.
>>737835526To hide the shit looking game behind the shit.
what is this image about?
>>737835594What it's like to watch from the corner.
>>737835526Most cinematic games goal is making it look like you're looking at a scene through the lens of a camera. Chromatic aberration is something you see in photographs and movies.
>>737835709what corner?
Chromatic aberration has a place as the effect of a debuff or the version of "bloody screen so real" when you're playing as a robot or cyborg.What it shouldn't be is always on when you're just walking around with nothing happening. That's fucking stupid.

>>737835836why is this guy being retarded to me?
I don't know how I feel about it in Bloodborne. It was maybe the first game I've seen it.
My vision is so good that I can see it in real life.
>>737835076
>>737835812Or when your mother is yelling at you for being a little pervert.
>>737835267This happened to me the first time i smoked weed, and only mushrooms were able to replicate the effect but in a different way
>>737835076>>737835574oh, and if someone says that chromatic aberration is everywhere that person is correctbut in case of human vision the brain actually corrects the quality of the image to make our sight not have color fringes, but there are some tricks to see it on your own with your own eyesbtw this is a picture I took with a russian lens I bought for $20, Helios 81H, the lens utilizes classic double gauss lens design which specifically was used for a long while in photography for prime lenses because it allows you to use large f-number (more light let through lens) and it's generally good at correcting aberrations (chromatic aberration is just one type of aberration, there's more)
>>737835857A little bit of film grain can add some texture to a scene, especially to distant landscapes or very simple flat models so it doesn't seem quite so artificial.I also don't like zero head bob as it makes the character seem to be floating around like a stupid ghost.All the rest are correct and you can add vignette, especially as an added visual indicator of crouching.
>>737835076Garbage retarded graphic designers put in their games.When you see a game that has it you know it was made by retards.
>>737835509*AAA dogshit
>>737836175>i need weed and mushrooms to see fake rainbowsYou can use sunlight and a piece of clear plastic, dude.
>>737835076is she looking at this picture?
>>737835857This, all settings except for texture quality and anti-aliasing is bloat. Especially shadows.
>>737836218>a russian lens I bought for $20, Helios 81HI don't need to know that, buddy.
>>737835857Add ambient occlusion on that list
>>737835594>>737836334She's looking at people being hanged. It's probably an anime about holocaust and lesbian sex.
I enjoy chromatic aberration.
>>737835890He's not used to attention, he dropped his spaghetti. Don't mind him.
>>737835526depends on the game of course but I quite liked the effect in Bloodborne because it made everything feel other worldly, like the edges of reality were frayed and distorted. alot of games it's just out of place though, trying to mimick real world lens effects
>>737835857Bloom is literally a good thing though
>>737836719>i am contrarian, loo at me! Here's a free (You)
>>737836991
>>737835728>>737835728>Chromatic aberration is something you see in photographs and movies.No it isn't. Manufacturers of lenses for cameras spend millions on R&D to get rid of artifacts, meanwhile retards who make games put that shit in because apparently making the game look like you're seeing it through a camera and not your character's eyes makes it more immersive.
chromatic aberration looks cool if it's some futuristic game and it adds those colorful edges but if it includes blur it looks like shit
>>737837094>more immersiveI've never feel that on new games. The last game i felt that was skyrim. I spent hours hoarding any foods i saw on the game, turned out i was just hungry irl.
>>737835427Will overstimulate.
>>737836719I enjoy lense flare.I think that these post processing effects can be cool. But retarded devs often enforce them on and don't let you disable it.
white people don't aberrate dey chromatics
>>737837293Why not just add the colourful edges to the textures?
>>737836324those are real rainbowstrying to see fake rainbows, retard

>>737836218All these words and I still don't see the chromatic abberation in this picture, shit is just made up. Where is the split red and blues at the edge you fag? Is that just blur
>>737837398I believe people should stop trying to force things to look different than they were intended.If you can't stand looking at a game as envisioned by its creators, you should move on and play something else.There are way too many games out there anyway and you have a limited life.
>>737837630not that OP but the technical term for "blur" is defocuschromatic aberration is just a type of defocus that varies with wavelength
>>737836218You can see chromatic aberration at the edges of your lenses in the right lighting conditions if you wear glasses.
>>737835857This. Plus vignette, and if it's ever possible auto exposure and volumetric fog. And I'll turn brightness up compared to recommended settings.Regardless of whether I find any of these settings beautiful/useful or not, they all really hurt my eyes and give me headaches. Modern AAA games, even when otherwise good, are all a pain to go through for me because of this.
>>737836948past 2010 maybe, in any game released prior it should be off
>>737837906And reduce max brightness too now that I think about it, because I'm fed up with games trying to blind me with bright flashes of light.Also remove TAA.
>>737836948>Bloom is literally a good thing thACK
>>737839196other way around and bottom is more accurate
anyone who plays with any post processing filter on should be throw feet first into a woodchipper
>>737839858No it isn't, retard.Try not posting like you have 80IQ next time.
>>737840181go outside and play some actual games camera's are not human eyes, they don't work the same and they don't see the same
>>737835076>What the fuck is chromatic aberration?shit filter
>>737840229When I'm playing a first person game I don't want the world to look like I'm seeing it through a shitty phone camera, which is the bottom picture.
>>737835076It's based. It gives a retro and comfortable feeling.
>>737837526this is exactly how i play lol
>>737839196Bottom is exactly what it looks like IRL during the middle of the day when the sun is at its peak though
>chromatic aberration
>>737837526>>disable anti soul gas mod: INSTALLEDGod, I wish every game had that
>>737835076Fake "old tv"-look filter. Like grain filter but way shittier.
>>737836948I'm pretty sure the bloom in oblivion and other 2000s RPGs has permanently damaged my eyesight
>>737841261No it isn't, retard, because that's not how human eyes work, it's how shitty cameras work.Try actually leaving your basement sometimes.
>>737835857I like DoF.
>>737836228Devs often slap vignette on camera permanently, and only way to get rid of it is to set post-effects quality on low (Sometimes it disables ambient occlusion).
>>737843739You like cocks and penis
My glasses have chromatic aberration.
>>737843739You're retard
>>737843739Something must be wrong with you.
>>737835526It's cinematic. If you would want to reduce this effect in photography and the like you'd need to pay for a more expensive lens. People paid gorillions for better lenses. No one wants that shit. Other than normalfags.Devs also like to use it to hide imperfections, as the other anon said. Who gives a shit if the game ends up looking worse and visibility suffers, the normalfags can tolerate it, so just go ahead and use it.
>>737835076A type of lense distortion you might see in a telescope or in some pairs of glasses. Why it's in so many video games, I have no fucking idea
