Looks the same!! Lol

A 4090 and a 13900K are struggling to do 60 FPS……this game is complete shit.

Well Done!! great job

Totally same but ultra have darker Shadow

“Wait… did I even accept the changes?”
(If I owned this game already.)

Screw people complaining about the graphics. This game looks like a priceless oil painting most of the time. New Atlantis is just the worst place to showcase the graphics, because there are two things the game does really bad, and that’s unsuited NPCs, and forests.

I remember switching the graphics setting on the train station in Atlantis. The difference was pretty stark.

Pretty subtle, actually. I remember the days when the difference between “low” and “high” in games was like night and day.

The only difference I notice is my damn framerate lol.

lmao no difference. Typical Bethesda.

Oddly enough the softer shadows on Low actually look more realistic. There’s no reason this game couldn’t have been better optimized to run at a locked 60 on the Series X.

is low the secret ultra setting?

So on ultra you just get a big fps hit 😂 and my 1080ti is allready overclocked to run this game at 30 fps 😅 luckily its watercooled so it can do it all they long while staying 60 degrees Celsius

This should be a lot more embarrassing than it seems to be for Bethesda/their diehard fans defending the performance. If changing settings in a game from their minimum to their maximum provides little to no impact on any device—something is horribly wrong, or total garbage in the game.

I feel like the only big changes between all the settings when I messed around were Reflections, shadows, and Contact shadows. Beyond that Nothing else really changes or changes are hard to notice. My big recommendation is to lower the Resolution rendering to a spot you feel it looks good to you then raise the sharpening to clean it up. Then play the game and watch your frames. What ever your average frames are in a city setting set your gpu to only go to that amount of frames. I did this and my pc fans are not screaming and I have solid frames with no drops.

Awesome fps for 1660 Super

If a rtx 4090 can’t run this game above 100 fps on low setting my overclocked 3060 ti would most likely run this at 30fps or less

Lowering the brightness a bit can make the game “look” like ultra

No veo diferencia en las texturas, lo que más resalta es el contraste provocado por la excesiva oclusión y las sombras más definidas. En general me gustan más las sombras proyectadas de los objetos altos como los árboles y monumentos en low quality, se apega más a la realidad. Excelente diseño arquitectónico, felicito a los diseñadores y arquitectos que participaron.

There is the shadows on/off toggle! 😀

Dat optimization …… wow ……………………”good” job 😀

I put everything too low and shadows and Reflections on medium. It runs great on my 3060 laptop and actually think softer Shadows look more realistic

Best looking low settings I’ve ever seen.

The game sometimes looks gorgeous like on a planet Neon and on some of the planets.
But most of the time the game looks like Fallout 4 on minimal settings without HD textures. And crows NPCs’ faces look like oblivion or even worse.

The only difference seems to be ambient occlusion. Seems like anyone can just turn ambient occlusion on and run everything else on low and get the exact same visuals lol. Yeah. the shadows a re a bit better. But, that’s about it lol.

dunno, my low graphics looks like a blurry mess, here it doesnt look like what my game looks like at all

This game is a console port on release.

Can’t believe ultra settings looks the exact same as low and has a 30fps cost 💀 I’ve never switched to low settings that fast in my life 🤣🤣

2k with ultra graphics should do good on my 4070ti

What i can´t understand, is the game gpu bound now or not? even with you high end system only 80fps is damn bad. How bad could a game programmed

i usually play my games in med settings.. i prefer my fps to be at least 80 or higher for smoother transitions when i’m turning

i mean , bethseda games arent made for the looks, they look alright, good enough, were bethseda games really shines is the world building and the feeling you get playing it, the immersion. i havent tried it yet, but if its as good as skyrim or fallout 4 then im very happy

Holy cow such a minor difference in visual that high is not even worth it.

I don’t see much difference 😕

I agree. I think the slider was added as a diversion. What is even more concerning is that it takes a big performance hit on ultra when not using an elite PC. It’s like they didn’t actually care about better appearance but just crammed weighty shit in at the last second out of pure insecurity.

Thats just a stupid comparisson! Look at other videos with lowest grafics and you will see, low def. looks like shit! But if you compare 4k low settings to 4k ultra settings, there is not so much difference. BUT the geforce gtx 1070 ti will just explode if you try to do 4k 😀 so it will only run on HD. AND HD low settings compared to 4k ultra settings are WORLDS apart. For example at the 5 min mark in this video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kfCCKCeEzUU (its not mine)

4090?😂 80 fps😂😂😂😂

Apparently, I can safely play on Low settings at 1440p, since I don’t see much difference, but the FPS is still higher

Shit graphics I’m playing
Mr Howard
Sir
You have let us down a bit

Looks to be a texture issue and not actually overall graphics

engine 5 dead vidio card

I have a laptop with a 2070 super, I’m guessing my odds of playing this are slim to none..

Only difference in shadows… I see no need to set game options in ultra

Game looks like shit anyways. THIS is THE game of year the’ve been hyping us for? Real AAA studio move.

Guys, they forgot to add quality options. They just added the slider at the last minute to fool everyone.

it might actually look better on low lol. no wonder the requirements are so fucked up, you barely gain anything going from ultra to low

The difference looks like a single shade of color change with some sharper shadows. Such scalability.

This is what you might expect going from high to ultra, but low?

Low : no npc
Ultra : npc

are both using 100% render?

this game should get 150fps on a 2080 ti 1080p low easily, but gets like 30fps lmao

Horizon forbidden west have better graphics than this and better optimized

This game doesn’t even have “low” settings. Its always on maxed out textures

no texture setting so no diference on that, only shadows oclusion and lights

😂😂 Aha..

This games about having a big world not about having incredible visuals.

Im a bathesda fan, but i am not playing this one… waiting for tes 6

Difference is minimal

Why are ultra shadows sharp? Shadows are blurry in real life

nice try, now do the same comparison with FSR off

🎉 😮 🎉

No difference at all

Loe is oke

Shadows, that’s it!? Fucking shadows!!?

this game’s performance is pure garbage

So literally 0 different … the ultra graphic looks unfinished tho 🥲

Ultra does not exist 🙂 Bethesda and their old engine can not support ultra 🙂

id say battlefront from 2015 on low settings looks way better then this crap on ultra correct me if im wrong

You are waiting for the loading screen, it is a game made with technical tricks. Real-time landing on planets is not possible.

How about very low setting but turning on shadow?

Damn Rtx 4090 not able to push 100fps…this game definitely need some optimization.

Looks terrible in both settings.

Ultra is low with game filter

この化け物スペックですらlowで120fpsいかないのか…

The low shadows look realistic to me, whereas the high shadows look too sharp and unrealistic.

donde mas se diferencia es en las sombras practicamente

It would be nice to see this same comparison with a 4060. Thanks for all you do!

Thats why I just set things to high and leave it at that. It’s better than low but have better fps than Ultra.

The main differeces are the ambiente occlusion and shadows. I think there are more things they should reduce to create a proper “Low” preset and make the game run decently on lower end hardwares without relaing on reduced resolution scale.

Why are ‘low’ settings non-existent these days

The low settings reminds me of my expectations for the game. The ultra settings reminds me of the price.

thats just nonsense 1:05 xD

I can’t be the only person whose kinda dissatisfied with the graphics

TG thanks again, love your work man. Like another commented, Ultra looks more like medium at most.

what resolution??

Fallout 4 with mods look way better…

Low looking better than Ultra! 4K Low looks better than 1080 or even 1440p ultra…at the right size display (bigger proportionally to resolution)…
Not the first game it happens in. Some AI image quality enhancement like DLAA or DLDSR and better image than any ultra… RT should be config independently just in case shadows of better quality were needed… but the clearer and crispier the image is the better, and the longer distance of view, also…

It’s all the same except the shadow poly on the character

💩

Игру делали кончи, разницы в графике, но 4080 карту подавай игре.
Руки бы отбивал таким разрабам

only 2 thing is good about this game

1- vram consumption
2- difference between low and ultra

Yeah , waiting for the modders to improve graphics and many other things

Fallout 4 moment 😂

graphic year 2015, but graphics card min 2022…

Well at least i wont miss anything running this game on my 1650 🗿 on low settings besdies a few shadows (same as rdr 2) but in rdr 2 i have them on ultra and they still look garbage

Hype for nothing again😠

0:18 In GTA V the most demanding shadows look like the ones on the left (Nvidia PCSS) and the less demanding ones look like the ones on the right (soft shadows) and according to developers, the blurrier shadows are more like shadows in real life where you actually cant see individual leaves of a tree on the ground etc.

the only seeable difference is literally shadows

Other than some shadows I don’t really see much of a difference.

Yet another Bethesda game that needs to be fixed with mods by fans.. Expecting hd textures any day now.
I hope they won’t use this “engine” for tesVI

The biggest difference is ao. Other than that, there is not much difference in graphics. Very poorly optimized or even not.

Let’s be honest:
“Ultra” = Low with medium shadows
“Low” = Low with low shadows
Reminds SW KotOR with a bit upgraded textures. Kinda, 20 years?.. )
As I’ve played on 8-16bit consoles, i’m not complaining about graphics, but if it looks like ~2007 it should run fine on a hardware from ~2003.

just the shadow and texture have a tiny bit of differences.

Look meh on any settings.

This game really looks like poo and runs like poo. A very expensive poo.

Its probably because of their decade old game engine trying its hardest to run all the poorly implemented “upgrades” thus making the game heavily hardware demanding. They’re still using the same crappy creation engine used on Skyrim ffs😅. You can see the evidence of this by looking at the bugs. The engine has same underlying problems as before. Its just like they slapped on a fresh set of paint on top of an already rusty car and saying its “rebuilt from the ground up”.

Ultra = Shadows

Разницы особо нет только тени !!!

Funny when a game on PS5 runs at 30fps everyone jumps in and complains non stop regardless how good the game is.

Whereas on Xbox it seems to get a free pass and suddenly no one is complaining about the 30fps cap.

not impressive at all and it’s badly optimized, what a joke

0 difference lol

Whats the difference?🤣

Низкие настройки порой выглядят лучше ультра настроек. Главное максимальное разрешение монитора железо вывезло. 2160p, 1440p и 1080p.
Ну и чтобы игра своим движком позволила использовать мониторы 21:9 а то будет как в Скайрим.
Я помню время когда у меня видеокарта была настолько плохой, что я не мог на максимум даже свой монитор использовать а про 1080p я уже молчу т.к. был монитор 1600×900. Приходилось на одну ступень разрешение понижать и производительность тут же вырастала процентов на 20.

The only difference here is framerate 🤔

Low – PS2 quality
Ultra – PS3 quality

It is very poorly optimized, the shadows change and little else

2023 is the dissapointing year of utterly dissapointing games. Forsbroken….remnants….witcher 3 next gen update (atleast it looks good as ever)…shitfield….and the way things are going for gamers it looks like everything will go much downhill more with the coming years. Optimisation has vanished to thin air just like my girlfriend. And polished graphics are probably a joke men will crack over beer or whiskey. DLSS and FSR is being hailed as the messiah whereas their sole purpose was to support the older hardware and visuals and not become a standard even for the best cards. By the looks of it the upcoming generation of gpus will get obsolete before they are even launched! 😊

this is why devs now dosent care about optimization and rely heavily on dlss and fsr they dont input lower res texture and assets and this just lazy work not oh games are getting batter

Ultra for the cost of 20-30 frames over Low? Doesn’t change a thing. Is a joke LOL

What the fuck was Bethesda thinking?

Same textures low and ultra and run like shit, disappointed. Good that I haven’t bought it.

Almost same

xD

xdd2023

looks like AO is on ON Ultra and thas is

more or less, is the same 🤷‍♂

Wery low difference.

Literally only difference is the shadows. The game doesn’t look all that impressive yet is the hardest game to run there is right now somehow

This shit just exact the same as Fallout 4 – High Quality Texture DLC, with like 40GB and add a touch of shadow rendering

the rest graphic option is… mods.

I must have low standards because I can barely tell the difference.

Хорошая работа 👍

Ultra has slightly better shadows and a tiny bit better volumetrics

Aint no way a 4070ti is having a hard time running this kind of graphics on 1080p. 💀

It’s almost same.

а если не на топовом железе предыдущего поколения???

Game looks like from 2015 with Mods applied.

so no matter its low or high its allways the same? Nice wp bethesda, and that only for 120$ hahah, YARRRRR piretebay

no difference – looks like shit in both

JK they’re both Medium

This game looks optimized for solid 30 FPS. I will lock to 30 FPS High-Ultra settings with RTX 3060 and pray for my gamepad, g-sync and motion blur to save me…

what the fuck is this??? 2023 graphics?? holy fuck!!! i can say far cry 5 and rdr2 still kick ass this dog shit game in graphics and fps.

Ultra = 2015 graphics
Low = 2012 graphics
no matter how I look at it….. this graphics is not worth that much performance hit.

seems like it only really impacts shadows mostly, which coincidentally is almost the only setting that really impacts performance.

Looks like ultra has become a necessity for modern games

Xbox 360 foliage. There’s nothing next gen about this game.

It doesn’t excel/innovate in any category. Rpg mechanics, graphics, writing, voice acting, storytelling, exploration, combat, UI, animations. All subpar (5 years ago!).

lol what a terrible game engine, awful scalability

Ultra = Potato.
Low = Potato with fuzzy shadows.
At least give us a proper framerate increase when we drop to low, ffs…

The deference is only shadow.

Looks like a 2014 game regardless

Still looks great on low

Wow!! I think this is a new record for the smallest difference between Ultra and Low Graphics settings 😮

The same thing…not much difference between the two quality configs.

Low doesn’t look bad enough for low and ultra doesn’t look good enough for ultra

This game is so overhyped
