Zeus' CRT Æsthetic

Preset for Blasphemous
Created by ZeusOfTheCrows

Shader used: ReShade
Preset description:
scanlines, bloom and frame blending, it's inspired by crt's rather than slavishly imitating: i've gone for aestheticity over authenticity - i don't know if i've ever seen any actual crt screens that look like this, but i just went for what i think looks best made on 1440p, but also tested at 1080p i'd advise viewing the previews at large size or maybe even fullscreen, else the scanlines get lost
