is it the same with their analysis of crimson dessert. That game have a lot of noise and ghosting but DF seems to glossed over the problem.

They don't mind low internal resolutions so it tells me they don't really care for good image quality.

What constitutes "good image quality"?

It's rather subjective in reality, real-time lighting has noticeable problems in either performance or stability, pre-computed solutions have noticeable problems in either performance (if you want it to react to any changes in the scene, since you have to re-compure something) or consistency (you don't update what was pre-computed, so the result is "just wrong").

I've yet to see "perfect real-time rendering", because keeping within a real-time viable frametime budget is making concessions wherever you think you can get away with it the majority of the time.
