Hi there,

after 2 betas and waiting up until today, I pulled the trigger now and got #D4 (gifted by Wifey, yeah! :-) ). Now I wonder if someone playing 1080p did a direct comparison between playing with high res textures on and off. It is a 40 GB difference and they say you should activate it when playing on 4K and very high settings. I am pretty confident that in normal gameplay, it should not make a difference in my setup, but from the beta I have the impression that some cut scenes are rendered in-game and are zoomed very far in into the characters and landscape, where higher res textures might have an impact even on 1080p maybe?

So, is someone of you playing 1080p and saw a difference between the 2 options?

Thanks in advance :-)

I’m on 1080p and honestly I can only tell the difference when I’m standing still and really trying to see them.

During gameplay you will 100% not be able to tell the difference with everything going on.

Thank you! That is what I thought, probably not noticable during normal gameplay. I saw some pixelated textures when creating my character yesterday and I had the impression some textures looked better during the cutscenes which are zoomed in very much, but this is like less than 1% of the game. I think I will just save my bandwidth and ssd space for now.
