Is this kind of blurrines normal?
I don't think that this kind of blurrines is normal. The whole game is kind of blurry, despite of graphics settings in-game and on Nvidia driver level. Especially hairs look awfull. Is it bug or something related to driver? Anyone have similar problem?

Turn your bloom off.

turn TAA off and use the last one or just turn on dlss-quality which will disable AA options and do it itself.

If you have NVIDIA you can use the DLAA option. It is similar to in functionality to TAA but with AI upscaling added to clear up the blur a bit.

Turning off Depth of Field maybe helps you?

Playing in 4K I turn AA off but I have noticed a blurriness which I thought strange. I will try this thanks.

^ Was going to say, this looks like a Depth problem.

I've been stabbed in my right eye twice, had 5 surgeries to fix it, and I can't see the freaking bluriness you are trying to point out. It looks sharp to me. What are you seeing?

Dead people.

It's from the TAA. Yes there is blur. TAA is temporal anti-aliasing, temporal referring to time. It uses frame prediction to clean up jaggies and the image, but this comes at the cost of a blurring effect if there is any movement on the screen. This is why any object that has zero movement comes out very clear, but anything moving (such as characters swaying back and forth as they stand still) have a blur to them.

DLAA uses a similar technology but AI upscales it to clean up the blur a bit. If you truly want no blurriness, use SMAA. However, SMAA will come at the expense of jaggies and shimmers if you're playing on a mid resolution (1080p-2k).

mine is this way too on steamdeck. i keep playing w/ the settings but nothing fixes it.... do i have to completely restart to fully see a difference for each setting i change?

this has def been my experience, is there a way to have no blurriness and no weird jaggies or shimmers if i change to high quality? also do i need to restart game to fully see the changes when i mess w those settings?

yes it looks blurry, you have a few options:

i see that you have DLSS on, so:

Increase DLSS sharpness: will make things a little less blurry.
Or disable DLSS: this will disable DLSS' natural Anti-aliasing

In doing so, the game will activate the Anti-aliasing option by default, (i think this game has FXAA, TAA, DLAA)

turn that option off and all blurriness will be gone but it will make things razor sharp, not in a good way.

Best option: Enable DLAA which is the BEST of both worlds (DLSS has to be disabled in order to use it)

Running at a very high resolution to screen size ratio. For example, at 4k resolution it should clean up most jagginess. However, it is all engine dependent on how stuff is rendered and it really feels like outside of 4k this game was really meant to be played with a temporal AA solution for best results.

TLDR: Try a very high resolution while disabling anti-aliasing. If it's not clean enough, you're SooL.

You can adjust sharpness in options. I had the same thing where my nvidia card decided I could play on combo of ultra and high settings, but then turned sharpness all the way down for some reason.
