And that's how not to do it. What did this raytracing add?
Missing grass shadows. Missing shadows (Ambient Occlusion) almost everywhere. Main thing of raytracing should be great quality reflections and refractions.
Instead here things are missing.

Water looks good, and the light coming through the windows makes a massive difference on those interior scenes. Rest of the graphics didn't look particularly good, but not bad either.

It only uses raytracing for GI/AO, which are basically the same. I think the AO looks good here, especially inside the house - where is it missing?

Looks great, but all of this could be accomplished without RTX. The requirements and extra load of RTX just isn't justifiable.

the other RTX ray trace vids of late make this look pretty lame
