Dragon Age 4 Veilguard: Turn OFF That Cartoon Effect - Graphics and Performance Comparison

looks way better !

youre character look so badass he reminds me of feanor

Huge step in the right direction. Of course brutally turning it off breaks other effects (AA, DoF, some lighting?), but hopefully modders will be able to turn it ALMOST all the way down and find a good middle ground.

Wow, thank you!

YOU ARE MY HERO! i hate this foggy look

Me: disables Bloom
Varric: goes mute for the rest of the game

woah the performance increase. I also like the visual difference. This video is a holy grail i swear.

thanks! I thought it was as easy as just go into notepad but wanted to be sure, bloom really ruins visuals!

how is Bloom off not just in the main settings? Lord

Thanksssssss ❤

You are a legend bro

now that's Dragon Age

Thank you very much, it's a great improvement. 👍

Performance aside, the game LOOKS so much better! It ALMOST looks like it could actually be a dragon age game!

The before looks like having beauty filter on, lol! Nice job for disabling it.
On the side note, this is got to be the hottest Rook I’ve seen.

ACtually makes me want to play even more. Looks like the world I remember from DAI. Nice! Any issues doing this?

The characters still look like playdough, but this change still helps them to look a bit less like it.

too bad that turning off bloom doesnot fix all other stuff like cartoonish look of all characters

Honestly I love the graphics but the way they have done cutscene is just disgusting

Only thing left is to shrink the heads, improve the appearance of the Qunari in-game, fix those facial expressions, mute all characters and replace the writing and you have a decent Dragon Age game in your hands

damn doing this made the game bearable to play.... it has now abit of semblance of Dragon Age.

We gonna mod this into a proper da game

WOW... I think you might've stumbled unto something here! I had feeling it was the damn Bloom... I hate that on ALL video games.

Can you check if it's possible to disable Depth of Field? This horrendous effect doesn't belong in any gameplay, it's only acceptable in photo mode.

This is impressive, but it would be good to reduce the heads so restore normal body proportions and reduce the muscles in women. Then it will be ok.

much better now! thankyou very much

We need mesh mods for this I think coz the proportion is cartoonish.

And now, you need:
change physical proportions of all humanoid races (shrink head, widen shoulders, make legs longer, add variety of chests and lower bodies)
change visual looks of Qunary and add femine features to elfs
change some textures for clothes, so armor and robes won't look like brand new
change visual looks for Darkspawn and Demons
Chagne visual looks for some monsters, including Griffins
Change interface colors to look more mature
and weariness to characters (eye circles, dirt, roughness, etc)
Change some facial expressions
change most of dialogs
cancel some changes to the lore, to be more accurate with DAO
Then, it can be on par with DA2.
__
Why not DAO? Imagine therapy session with Morrigan and Alister to boost their morale before the mission =D
To be on par with DAO you should remember choices in Denerim's alienage and Kusland's betrayal. You can't reach the level of hatred towards earl Howe and satisfaction from killing him in any other DA game. He was a Bolton at heart.

It's easier to just not buy the game

Without bloom looks like normal Dragon Age how should look from thr start... Wish to have option on my X to turn this off... And btw game is fun but need this dsrk tounch

The problem is that now things that are actually supposed to glow, don't glow anymore. A good example is the glowing bits on the dragon, like the eyes and that patch on it's throat. They don't glow anymore, they're just orange.

Thank you!!! I was noticing like an strange shinning or blur on NPC that got me really sick and with this and the antileashing that's it! I have an i5 12xxx with GTX 1650 and 16Gb RAM 😅

One of the few good things in this game is the hair. Omg do the long hair look awesome. Hard to say with the rest it's hit or miss for me xD

this game has the best hair gfx

Nice! Now if only there was a setting to fix the bad dialogue and writing. 😂

Is this option only for PC ?

Your Rook looks like Peter Steele a bit. I am a fan.

Still gay
