Can all of you leave the rays alone and stop trying to trace them? It's hard enough to be a living pancake swimming along the ocean floor.
And don't go bothering Ray either. He's a nice guy and doesn't deserve your BS.
The first one of these was really funny but none of the derivates that came after ever reached that level.
Apparently the new hotness is Ray Marching, basically Ray tracing with circles

I turned off raytracing in 2077 and immediately had a playable experience. So what if the reflections aren't good? They fixed this on switch with SSAO, and that's a cheap way to fix it
