It still gives Nvidia egg on their face if you ask me: They talk about how gameworks is supposed to be not only the effects but the experience and help from Nvidia. Now that means that

 

1) That's just bullshit

 

2) Someone from Nvidia actually took a look at that stupid Batman game and said "Yep, this is the game we wanna push Gameworks and new GPU bonus games with" and was totally ok with.

 

I'm sure in the hands of competent developers, Gameworks is actually either a great tool or a minor thing (i.e. The Witcher 3 actually runs fantastically without it) or all the talk about being much easier and nicer for developers is actually bullshit and the only help Nvidia is giving is money. Because really I don't think they wanna come out and say "Yes is unfortunate WB recalled the game but we really think Gameworks helped them!"

With batman that proofs that Nvidia doesn't have much control over the game and the claims saying they're crippling the performance is just bullshit, also Nvidia would be mad after them bundling the game with there GPUs for a while now.

Gameworks does include help from Nvidia... for the gameworks effects. They don't touch the rest of the game and poor performance is STILL 100% the dev's fault.

Yep, so either they couldn't help much on that one, making the claims they "help" devs meaningless or they actually didn't/couldn't help and Warner Bros. just pocketed in the Gameworks cash and ordered the port devs to put it in their already crumbling house of cards they called a game.

 

So if Gameworks still requires competent developers, then I don't see the point of it since competent developers can create good looking, good performing games without it.

nvidia did help the developers in building the game... porting the game is an entirely different matter

^^^ yea thats the thing... I mean couple months ago when people were debating shit about Pcars performance. There was a statement by someone from the studio

that Nvidia helped to optimize the game for PC where as AMD refused and gave that as a reasoning for poor performance on AMD cards... 

 

But this recent Batman title seems to have contradict that statement. I thought that it would atleast still perform "Okay" on Maxwell cards... But this just performed like shit

on everything. The physX implemented in this game is the best I've seen yet (dat smoke effect  :D) but didn't Nvidia help implement PhysX features on the PC port? They

wouldn't possibly touch the console versions as they don't have those effects. Why didn't the programmers from Nvidia bring this up to Nvidia? The shit that is going on in WB

is very sketchy.

 

Off topic, I know, sorry.
