HDR Gaming Group Formed to Optimize Content

You know it. I'm just glad it won't affect RE2R considering RE7 did it right with the RE Engine.
Such a shame I'm still waiting on a fix to play Monster Hunter. The Beta soured me on it.
Disappointing company with their lack of HDR in all of their major games released this gen.
Final Fantasy XV did HDR very very good in my opinion.
I wonder how things can improve overall with HDR for the next generation

Yeh not quite sure whats happening in MHW, but having a colour saturation slider is sweet.
Horizon def has the most noticeable (and impressive) implementation in my book.
My thoughts are aligned with these takes. Also, like someone else here mentioned, fake HDR really need to be put to death.
Next-gen with microled displays should be a treat. Here's hoping immersive audio with games also takes off with those boxes.
Nice nice!
This is definitely needed. Like others mentioned you got games like AC Origins, Gears 4 but also games like Monster Hunter World where the implementation is absolutely trash.

HDR is bait to sell new TVs because video game devs have been sloppy with it?
No.
HDR is the biggest thing to happen to displays since color, it's not a bait or a gimmick. HDR in film has been great as they follow a standard. Games have been slow to adopt a standard, so this is great news to hear that they finally are.
I hope somewhere down the line we just get everyone designing around one standard calibration. The point of HDR is to try and replicate closer to life colours and light levels, so the end game should really be a display and content that aims to replicate the real world. If a documentary is filmed then the cameras should capture as close to real life as possible light levels, colours, contrast etcetera and then that should be replicated when watched on a TV.
As it stands it's all about personal preference. Some HDR I plementations I've seen are far more colourful and brighter than what the real thing was that they shot. It looks good... But not accurate.

How would they do that? Hdr is a mastering techinque. Framerates are tied generally to compute power after most common optimization is done.
They need side by side HDR comparisons in every game. Otherwise people just wont notice it. They wont notice the enhancements and they certainly wont notice if it's wrong.
Why. Different games need different approaches. There is no one size fits all here.
I wish Dolby Vision will be added. I know there might be added lag but perhaps that can be figured out. Only BF1 & Mass Effect on PC support DV. : /
Their games have enough bugs already. You want your lighting and colors to be apart of that too?

I love HDR, but it isn't really ready for prime time yet for mass market use. Barring the $600 TCL that's setting the budget TV market on fire, you need a $1000+ TV to even get proper HDR. Then you have to calibrate that TV properly for HDR is display properly. A HDR capable screen on the Switch would shoot the price of the system up. There's always a possibility that Nintendo can patch on HDR support and release a new dock, but that's likely to happen with a revision of the hardware instead. Hell, some OG PS4 and Xbox One owners don't even know those systems support HDR.
This is exactly why I'm in no rush to buy an HDR with it being such a mess right now, let them get this straightened out and in an year or so it will be ready. Then OLED will be much cheaper then anyway and that's the future if display tech
Exactly that's like asking for a shoe that adapts to everyone's foot size
It's not a mess at all, everything comes down to implementation and many do it better than others. Like Polyphony having cameras made specifically for capturing HDR.
I think it was issues with windows 10. Its been fixed now I think. I played Injustice 2 and MEA in HDR, and they worked perfectly.
The question now is how do we convince Samsung to listen to LG? Sony already bent the knee for the A1E.
I think that's more of a software issue, and Microsoft/Windows' responsibility
With LG, Sony, Asus, HP, Vizio, and Samsung on board, this group has potential. It should help desplinter the HDR market by setting standards all agree on that get implemented in TVs and monitors.
Standardized HDR will be the best thing to happen to IQ since the jump to HD.

I use default settings on my Sony and HDR is perfect and exactly as intended. No tweaks necessary. HDR is a larger upgrade than 4K, so just go for it.
Well, Fallout 76 is confirmed to feature HDR support, so there's that at least.

Oh awesome, didn't know that.
Really, really hope Doom Eternal supports it. I've seen Id devs talking up HDR but they haven't implemented it in their engine yet. It would be a big upgrade and look awesome with Doom's contrast between light and dark.
Couldn't it be added in an update like PS4 did? I know portable couldn't but I mean in docked modeSwitch don't support HDR sadly.
Disappointed Dolby isn't on the list of companies. I guess we won't see Dolby Vision games for a long time or never?
The Switch hardware does, the dock doesn't at all. If they were to add it, it would require (besides a firmware update) a brand new dock.
...You're blaming Nintendo for the lack of HDR? The Switch doesn't even support 4k.
If anything, it will most likely come down to Nvidia's next SOC solution for the Switch and its capabilities.
Much like Vulkan, you can see them becoming part of the group once they have hardware that is relevant for it.
The Tegra X1 fully supports both 4K and HDR. And HDR can also be done on a resolution lower than 4k. So yes, I blame Nintendo for this one.
