[D4] 1080p players, do you see a difference with the high res textures? (kbin.social)

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.

No idea. I even have the high res installed on my Steam Deck and then tuning the settings down because that's what a guide said have the best graphics while still running light.

Feels bad to take time and compare the two. But I would like to know as well :)

Ive been meaning to install it on the deck, how is it running for you? Ive seen some people say 60fps and then others say 40. As long as its stable I think itd be fine.

Friend of mine tried it, and has the high res textures, med settings and FSR and maintaining pretty close to 60fps constantly (pretty sure those were the settings). Looked good and played good.
