Graphic Smoothing, No Mouths.
So the game isn't really helping by having graphics options that are labeled, but there must be some weird upscaling/smoothing that's making outlines and things like character's mouths almost invisible when compared to console.

Also I'm not sure if this is how it's supposed to look, but when characters blink their eyes look like they're melting.

Is this just a PC thing, or on console as well?

I'd like to see an image of that because at least with max settings this does not appear to be an issue for me.

Goku Black is probably the worst. His mouth is completely invisible.

These appear to be private and return an access error.

I believe since the games "Not Released" it won't let screenshots be public. But you can see them here too.

I also have all the graphics settings maxed out.

I can replicate your issue with the missing mouths if I lower render resolution to below 1440p. It seems from this angle, the line is sub-pixel thickness and just gets lost.

Guess I just need a 1440p monitor :steamfacepalm:

Dunno whats causing the weird smearing though. Like when characters blink. Like some weird DLSS or something. Wish the graphics options were labeled.

You figured this out? Started bothering me a ton after 40 hours LOL

Use this guide for better upscaling and overall graphics to performance optimization:

I have a 3060ti so going to 150 resolution scale isn't an option for me unfortunately

I don't think any of these things mentioned in the video fix this particular problem, if it's something that happens at resolutions lower than 1440p.

I managed to kinda fix it by disabling anti-aliasing ingame and forcing FXAA 8x through nvidia control panel, maybe it helps

I think the forced TAA is causing the weird smearing too, I'll give this a try when i get the chance. thanks.

Low - FXAA
Medium - TAA Blur + ghosting
High - TAA+SMAA - Even more Blur + ghosting

You only want to run OFF or LOW in this game, the colorful images with contrasting backgrounds make TAA\SMAA ghost even more then it normally would in other games.

You can force MSAA via CP but it causes stutters like crazy and isn't very effective.

Unfortunately there's still a bunch of shimmering and aliasing even with x8 fxaa, higher resolution scale, even with reshade fxaa msaa on top.

It's blurrier but I think ill have to deal with the taa in the game. Maybe until i get a 1440p monitor.
