Cutscenes in the game are behing a heavy depth of field blur. With some cutscenes, you can see the focal point in focus and the rest automatically turns into a harsh blur after few cm. Additionally in some scenarios where DoF intensity is increased during gameplay, I see blobs of blur with hard edge cutoffs.

Played this Enhanced version on Windows a few days ago with latest drivers and haven't noticed anything like that.

Judging from the number of people out there complaining about this, I think it's cross platform. Two separate things they suggest fix this for me:

  • Setting the PostFX DoF to High (not Very High, not Ultra) works inexplicably.
  • Using the RT Ultra global preset uses RT DoF

This issue seems to only affect NVIDIA when the PostFX option is set above High

Same prob, on the 580 and 590 drivers.
If i switch to the vulkan-nouveau driver, all good.
On AMD i get no problems.

Yeah, I can also repro on RTX 3070 and it looks like it's an issue with some floating point values being handled differently when a texture is cleared compared to RX 7600. Those values are clamped to a more reasonable number with RADV, but turns into infinity on the proprietary NV driver.

This should now be fixed on Proton Experimental bleeding-edge. I tested with 590.48.01 and could no longer see any issues in the intro.

All good now, thanks.
