SS looked and ran awful with that mod and show a clear reason why RT/PT sample starved do not look good enough in real time.
(Though the only saving grace for this mod is that with Doom being so laughably simple in terms of rendering you might get away with higher quality RPP/Denoising)

Unless your idea of looking good is image quality that is an inconsistent smeary, blurry and still noisy at the same time mess.

Another fun game from round the same time is Wolfenstein 3D.

Pretty much. The effects are overblown…everything is in colors like some laser disco party, and everything looks like it’s made of shiny plastic. 🙁

Yeah true path tracing already has multiple bounces.

you need multiple bounces for “GI”.

You could make it look almost identical to this by just baking the indirect lighting and attaching a shadowmask to every light source. also stupidly expensive but much cheaper than path-tracing, that’s for sure.
