Honestly, 90% of programming work now is “I got X library to work inside of Y new system in Z engine”. It makes sense too - it’s exceedingly rare that it makes sense to reinvent someone else’s wheel - and at times, not insignificant to implement the right hooks.
Things don’t need to be novel and amazing to be marketable. And if it’s that trivial, rather than pirating it people would just rewrite it. The fact that they’re stealing it means it has value.
The author wasn’t selling DLSS, they were selling a shim to make it work with Starfield. That does require original work.

The fact that they’re stealing it means it’s priced above its perceived value though.
So it has perceived value…
But that guy above was saying that it’s worthless and trivial to implement…
You can’t have it both ways.
That’s not true at all. People often steal because they value the item but cannot afford the price.

Strange how they felt the need to pirate his non-work instead of just doing it themselves?

There’s no need to do a search. People are paying for this product. Meaning they couldn’t find it elsewhere.

I mean that assumes that literally everyone is going directly to Nexus Mods to look for this, which is laughable…

Are you even reading your own comments here?
And starfield itself is useless without a huge stack of technology that someone else made. That’s just how software works.

Do you copy and paste comments from reddit? I read this exact comment last night I am SURE of it
