I noticed that I should have used a different name instead of "reflectivity" so it doesn't get confused with the albedo color. I guess "specularity" would have been better.

what a brilliant series! thank you so much for this, it was really enlightening

You could add a white noise texture to create soft shadows by moving the light by some random values with the white noise texture, and create softer reflections by changing the normals by some random value with the whote noise texture. Just keep in mind that you have to enable anti aliasing to get rid of the noise after some time

Yes very nice that someone else also found this!
I've added multi bounce pathtraced GI - so it's basically Blender Cycles within Blender Cycles.

@@georg240p how did you add the GI pass to your scene? When I tried it my whole scene got a bit darker

someone should tell this person that blender comes with a render engine out of the box
