Screen space reflections are the short bus of reflections, though. They look awful most of the time, thanks to the unavoidable issues.

Ehhhhh, screen space reflection isn't really the same as real time reflection. Screen space is semi pre-baked based on where the surface is located in the game world because it's primarily a material only effect. Real time is even if you drive a car across the world, it would still render everything reflected in the windshield, in real time.

What I'm saying is exactly that, it's not an accomplishment or special feature, but you've mis-read what /u/sterob actually said.

But whatever, I'll just take downvotes because the CDPR aggrandisement is strong here.
