People spend hours removing this shit from pictures in Photoshop

Chromatic aberration, motion blur and depth of field are sloppy techniques used to hide shortcomings in framerate and anti-aliasing but developers have been trying to convince us for years that these effects somehow constitute 'realism'

I don't think depth of field is that bad, some games use it for nice immersion, the rest I agree with. same with ambient occlusion, huge performance drain for almost nothing.
