Yeah, the effects are barely noticeable in the trailer and yet the performance impact will not be. Quake II RTX was definitely enjoyable though - it got me to play through the entire game for the first time.
Nah, having ray-traced reflections is like taking off the horse blinders you've been wearing your whole gaming life. Once you're used to that, it's painful to go back to looking at the smudgy placeholders so many games frequently employ. Even the nicest screen-space mirroring loses its sheen when its limitations are made to look so obvious by comparison.
I haven't found that it's something that I really miss when it's turned off. Unlike more in-your-face things like HDR, it's realistic and normal enough that I often don't notice the reflections unless I think to look for them.
Control had a few anachronisms in there like film projectors that were great fun and really showed off the raytracing, but there were times coming around a corner that I was startled by my own reflection, and I'm not entirely sure that it improved my experience.
