You didn't even address some of the points made in those links, and you're bringing discussion to faces.
Take a look at this:
and then compare it to this:
Both of them are from YouTube videos of both games running on Ultra High settings.
I haven't, and will not, play Fallout 4, but from any videos I watched where the game supposedly runs on highest setting possible, everything looks like plastic (as mentioned by those Steam discussion). Having played New Vegas vanilla once, I understand those saying how everything looked like as it should be, despite using 'inferior' version of the engine.
Yeah, yeah, but again you still ignored the points made by those Steam discussion. If you want to make a point about graphics, instead of dodging the points you should counter it by providing screenshots to prove that overall graphics looks like intended (instead of looking like plastics as some of those Steam discussion claimed).
Hell, you even ignored the point of, "and still when it rains even faces look like they are covered in a plastic sheet." made by
@Risewild. Why not try to counter it by providing screenshots/videos to prove otherwise? Instead, you keep insisting "Increased details, 40+ gigs, 'professional studio' = objectively better graphics" but can't show screenshots/videos to counter the points made by others, and instead drags the discussion to faces details, but still barely addressed the counter points made in return.
Also, this thread ain't fit for discussing graphics/things the game did good. You should post
in this thread, instead.
