My game is so blurry

[Yass Rif]

Hello, I was wondering what is the best way to remove the blurry mess I have on my game ? I tried sharpening it through Nvidia control panel and it's better, but still... Thank you in advance

Make sure game is running at your monitors native resolution.

What are your PC specs and what resolution are you trying to run game at? Again, does it match your monitors native display?

Yeah of course, and I have no performances problem. But I wanted to know if someone found a better way than Nvidia sharpening to remove the blur ?

I do not remember any blur when I played. 1440p at max setting on a 1080Ti.

Can you post a SS?

There's no blur.

Provide a screenshot please of blur you are speaking about

When I previously played, with AA maxed out, I felt there was some blur, especially when I was moving. But replaying now was ok, still it's sharper for sure when AA's disabled and upscaling used but this way it eats FPS. This is why I was wondering if there was another thing I could do

Yes, post a screenshot of your issue so we can see what is going on. SO we can give you better suggestions.

I feel like the rocks and little vegetation on the left are a little bit blurry.
And this is when I wasn't moving, because when I do so the blur is even more present.
This is with AA on maximum. Btw I'm pretty sure the game uses TAA which would explain it.

I do not know what your GPU is or what in-game settings you are using, but it looks to be set to a lower quality. These would be my suggestions on what settings to use.

Make sure your resolution modifier is at 100%, Refresh Rate to 60Hz, V-Sync on, with Field of View set between 75-85. FPS limit off.

I would put Adaptive Quality to off, Environment, Texture details, Terrain to High, with Depth of Field set to off as well. Depth of field may be the culprit as it does add a bit of blur to surrounding areas, but the quality of your screenshots it is hard to tell.

Keep Shadows, Tesselation, Clutter, Fog, and Ambient Occlusion to low. Volumetric Clouds can also be disabled. Nothing in these options give that much of a noticeable difference anyway. Clutter uses a lot of GPU. Water and Screen Space Reflections can be set to medium.

Using image sharpening thru NVIDIA Control Panel upscales the image making quality worse in some games. Turn that off. It really shouldn't be used.

An example would be looking at the Camel's hair in your screenshots. It looks like a bunch of dots. This effect is most likely caused from image scaling and sharpening filter making AA look much worse than it should. The game renders at a lower resolution this way and is not a good option to use really.

If you want a quick boost in performance. In global 3D settings in NVIDIA Control Panel. Go to Texture Filtering - Quality and set that to Performance or High Performance. This will give a boost in FPS with little to no visual difference in how the game looks. That would be a better option to change.

Lastly, may I ask your PC specs? What display driver are you using?

The game is so blurry it's horrible.
How did you upscale the resolution ? I'm stuck in 1080p and watching a 2k video on youtube of the game being played in 4k is less blurry than this.
I tried adding a custom resolution to enable 4k but it seems like the game is still being rendered in 1080p (no changes).
Specs :
GTX 1660 Super Ventus XS OC
Driver version 551.76
AMD Ryzen 7 5800X3D 8-Core Processor
16 GB RAM
1920x1080, 144hz

I honestly think that you need at least a 2k monitor to play this game decently, that's it for me

I actually found a workaround, even though I couldn't find a conventional way to upscale the game (and the DSR option in nvidia control panel seems broken) I tried Nvidia Freestyle (optional feature in Geforce Experience) and adding just enough sharpen+ and specialFX with a bit of sketch really removed most of the blur. I also added SSRTGI for the game to look better now it's pristine, looks better than Mirage though the textures are still kinda low res and the text is still somewhat blurry. It's strange when I played the game a couple of years ago I don't think I had this issue. And we agree it's not just the AA it's the whole game including the menus and everything.
