If it’s not cross platform, the blame for this instance goes to Bethesda, but it’s a pain in the ass that there isn’t a cross platform solution. If it is cross platform, the blame maybe goes to NVIDIA for not implementing something to support FSR, but maybe the blame still lies with Bethesda for not supporting FSR on an NVIDIA GPU.
But does this instance really matter? The point of the article is that PC gaming features shouldn’t be locked to individual specific setups and peripherals. Either way you cut it, some gamers are getting fucked because of some form of bureaucratic BS.
IMO, getting into the weeds of one specific example distracts from the crux of the argument - this just shouldn’t be a thing. At all.
Isn’t FSR cross platform?
