[Witcher 3 Remastered] Why does my game look so strange?

[u/snapfreeze]

Does anyone know what the heck is going on with my graphics? Surely this isn't intended.

Graphics settings are on Ultra (no RT).

---

System: CachyOS (KDE Plasma)

Proton: proton-wineland latest, but it's the same with proton-cachyos. Game won't start with GE-Proton.

CPU: AMD Ryzen 7 7800X3D

GPU: AMD Radeon 9070XT

I can run most other games flawlessly, fully maxed out. This is just weird.

Unfortunately, you need to run the new version with one of the avaiable upscalers (in your case, FSR). Otherwise, you get what you are seeing.

[u/snapfreeze → u/Unhappy_Ad1785]

That was it! Thank youuuuu

[u/GOKOP → u/snapfreeze]

I think FSR quality set to "native AA" should be fine if you don't want upscaling

[u/Tattorack → u/Unhappy_Ad1785]

Eeewww.... 

[u/Alexmira_ → u/Unhappy_Ad1785]

What? Do you have any idea why?

[u/unabletocomput3 → u/Unhappy_Ad1785]

It’s forced TAA, isn’t it

Your dynamic resolution is on, I had the same issue when I first booted the game after the remaster

[u/MusicianDry1419]

Can be the sharpness on. Try to disable and reboot the game.

Upscaling.

[u/S48GS]

kernel version?

[u/asamodi66]

Looks like bad or no anti aliasing or sharpness.

btw anyone has been able to turn on rt in this game on an amd gpu?

[u/CJlift]

Changing or even finding FSR version is still a mystery for me in CachyOS LOL

[u/retrocrawler]

I would also really encourage you to enable RT. Makes those hard shadows disappear. It gets a bit dark in some interiors. But you can use the torch. IMO looks much better over all.

Also if you have sharpening on in adrenaline and sharpening on max in Game settings than it will look a little wierd.

[u/Ok_Lavishness7429 → u/T3NF0LD]

This is Linux, so no adrenaline

[u/T3NF0LD → u/Ok_Lavishness7429]

Dang AMD doesnt make adrenaline for arch ?

[u/Ok_Lavishness7429 → u/T3NF0LD]

They don’t make it for Linux period
