@nostupidquestions Why do people like crt shaders in the retroarch community. There’s so many videos about it. Is it a product of their time or are non-crt experiencers doing it?
Maybe it’s a way for their smoothening upscaling shaders to look more pixelated and retro?
Old games were designed for CRTs. The way lines were rendered on the screen led to blurring and bleeding of colours which made them less pixely and looking like they’re much more detailed.
As a kid that grew up in the NES / SNES era and played these games on a CRT television, I think the sharp pixels look better. This is just going to be one of those subjective things.
Lots of these games were designed on and for CRT screens and they look worse on a modern one without filtering.
This thread is full of insane people because all of the comments are saying the CRT ones look worse. I feel like I’m in the Twilight Zone here. Unbelievable.
unbelievable
how can you just dismiss someone’s opinion? you don’t have to agree, it’s literally an opinion, not fact. let people do what they want with the filters and quit giving people shit over what they like. you don’t have their eyes.
