That looks bad sure but I wouldn't look at that closely anyway and the filtered one looks even worse. I have played that game without any filters and I didn't get any urges to use any. I have also played it on CRT but there wasn't any choice back then.

That's not better. That's more accurate. Is preference really this foreign of a concept to you?

There is no "looks objectively better" since it's a subjective thing. I've seen those examples multiple times and they look as blurry as ever.

What makes you push this tech to these limits?

I said that it doesn't matter. Only the end result does. There is no game I would play on a CRT simply because it looks worse. It's not an objective fact but my preference. I don't care how you are trying achieve the "CRT look" since it looks like shit and I don't want to see it.

That's still some Vsauce level reaching that "we don't actually even see anything". The tech doesn't matter when playing and if it looks blurry, then it is blurry.

But do they still look like blur? That's the only thing that matters. Ray tracing is also cool but if my frames die because of it, it gets disbled.

First time to hear something positive about them. Only heard that they are a step down from xm3 and 4.

My aim was never to emulate but to play. Blur filters are something that I won't be using.

True. I kinda took OP as someone who has studied for some time already but yeah it very much depends on the level of the said learner.

Also, this may be me yelling at kids to get off my lawn, but I think creating your own flashcards is preferable to premade ones for the immediate effect on your memory.

NEVER! You can't make me put in the effort! /s Seriously though I pretty much needed the ready made solutions to get pushed over the edge and I totally get why people might want that. Making your own cards is most likely much better option but that would've taken effort that I couldn't spare myself when I started.

Just don’t try to memorise individual kanji with no context.

This is good advice but I wouldn't learn individual words on their own since learning the words in context should be more effective. Even better if the context sentence is meaningful to the learner somehow.

This also requires work and isn't just an app you can just download.

Sounds like Wanikani. The first 3 levels are free but later 57 are not. I'd recommend getting the feel for them and then deciding if you are willing to pay for the 1-3+ year journey that's ahead of you since they have the lifetime sale in December.

I'd also recommend learning at least the first 100 常用(じょうよう) kanji on Ringotan (free). You will probably forget how to write them but it will make you understand them better.

Flaming Durtles.

That's the old version that's no longer maintained and broke somewhat when kana-only stuff was released. Smouldering Durtles is the new app.
