DoF, it happens automatically so it's not needed. If I look on the right side of the screen, the left is blurry.
Motion Blur to mask poor FPS.

Always the first two things I turn off.

there are gameplay use for it though, to obsure vision if needed

I believe you should be disabling these in Fallout4Prefs.ini (as described by the 4th post in this thread), not Fallout4.ini (the first post). I'm pretty sure Fallou4.ini is default settings or something; I screwed around with the launcher's options menu and the date modified timestamp never changed on it, whereas it did for Fallout4Prefs.ini. That suggests to me that modifications to game settings are stored in the Fallout4Prefs.ini file, not in the Fallout4.ini file.

But yeah, thanks for the location of those files and the specific names of the options in Fallout4Prefs.ini. I hate DoF and there's no option to turn it completely off in settings, it's only in the INI. VERY annoying.

Yeah, their ini files are a mess of redundant, obsolete, and unclear entries throughout multiple files in multiple directories. This mod right here is great: http://www.nexusmods.com/fallout4/mods/67/?
It takes your ini files and deletes all of the redundant entries from the unnecessary file as well as removes the obsolete entries that don't do anything. Makes your ini files MUCH easier to edit. Its funny because when you see people recommending config edits a lot of people are posting that you have to put the entry in all 3 ini files. The truth is an entry only needs to be in one file, but they just don't know which.

Make sure you BACKUP YOUR CURRENT INI FILE FIRST before running this mod's .exe, since this mod will have you create brand new config files, so any custom entries will have to be redone after running the mods.

I don't know why anyone likes this crap. It doesn't make it easier on rendering or anything. Actually, what it does is load the graphics crystal clear... then make it blurry. Stupidest. Game design. Ever. If I want to focus on something I will, and my eyes will naturally lose focus on everything else... Why would I let someone else decide what I should focus on? Completely retarded.

I hate blur...

its something that should only be on consoles.
Its usually used to hide that drawdistance is low on your console version
so you console can handle the game.

That's not what motion blur is for dude. You're thinking of "fog" devs put to hide low draw distances. Motion blur is used either for cinematic reasons (like Uncharted and it's chase scenes/set pieces) and to add a sense of "speed" and then primarily it's used to make the 30 fps feel smoother. Make the transition between the frames less jarring and noticeable in movement.

but i personally think the dof effect kinda sucks in this game, because it just looks like a simple blur than an advanced dof like this one

The highlights threshold and aperture shape in that screenshot are absolutely horrendous.

IMO, DoF is awesome for certain uses in cutscenes, character conversations, and specific screenshots, but it's not something I would want on permanently (until games track eye movement and computers can adjust the focus point on the fly w/o performance loss).

Motion blur is a little stickier. It works pretty well with certain art styles and games that have simple geometry and textures (think Team Fortress). A few of you here seem to believe motion blur is constantly in effect... it is only applied when you/the camera are in *motion.* The difference between a generic blur and motion blur is that the latter is directional. It can actually be quite useful for implying fast movement. The point of motion blur is two-fold: act as a "tweener," sort of blending frames to increase the feeling of smoothness at low frame-rates, and also to simulate our real vision. Try moving your head back and forth, things are blurred. It's for realism.

I can understand very easily gamers' hatred of things like lens flare and blood/dust specs on screen (unless the player is a wearing a visor of some sort), but I will never get why so many PC gamers easily hop on bandwagons of disdain for features they deem "console-useful" just because they feel more superior for playing PC games. Guess what! PCs are expensive!

Then again, that's why we have mods and ini files.

blur is only cool if its object based

camera based is crap, end of story, everyone knows it blurs when the camera movies, and it sucks

I hate it because it looks bad. Just like film grain, lense flares, and dof. Pointless fluff that adds nothing, and makes the game look worse.
