I tried for a few hours Dying Light the Beast, and guys you can feel there is no RT implementation.
The game is flat, without ambient occlusion and poor global lighting, even on High setting, shadows never have any shades. Borderlands 4 is a definitely poorly optimized game, ok, but let's be honest, graphically it's much better, and also Dying Light 2 with RT on. Don't get me wrong, there are old school games like RDR2 or Last of Us that prove that you can with raster do better than Ray Tracing but requires a lot of work. I think that Dying Light the Beast is a game with Ray Tracing in mind, it was temporarily disabled only to show that the game does 200 fps, for advertising, fear of users complaining about performance, is clear that something is missing Graphically, especially compared to Dying Light 2 with RT ultra.

Dying Light the Beast seems to be incredibly optimized and smooth ! But many people are disappointed for missing Ray Tracing (for now) ! will you play now or wait for Ray Tracing patch ?
