DJRiful.3749 Posted June 23, 2018 Share Posted June 23, 2018 The mounts textures are so detailed that I find the old world textures are a bit out of place. Don't you think Anet should at least revisit the old generation textures and redo them? It is a bit inconsistent right now, the grass and other model textures are pretty non-4k.

Blocki.4931 Posted June 23, 2018 Share Posted June 23, 2018 It would be nice, but sadly also wasted effort. In a perfect world we'd get that "big texture update" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hugo.4705 Posted June 23, 2018 Share Posted June 23, 2018 They will surely do, just see Inquest golem textures, they redone them lastly with the bug in the system LS. They were 6 years old. Some of locations and areas got their name changed too. I'm pretty sure that updating texture is on their to-do list. But I'm actually satisfied with the actual textures, don't really care about them. My options are: textures=high rendering=native only. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Meestercat.2748 Posted June 23, 2018 Share Posted June 23, 2018 I would love for Anet to revisit some of the older armour sets. It’s not they’re bad, just they could do with a little sharpening up. I was using the Whispers legs on my Mesmer and the detail was markedly ‘fuzzier’ compared to the other armour pieces. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Because there is no real benefit in doing so. They would have to divert a lot of time from their artists to rework old content that could be put into working on new stuff. It just means additional cost for them with the only benefit being "well, people will appreciate this" Especially because the artists are perhaps the busiest and scarcest "resource" for a game like this Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To add to what @"Blocki.4931" replied, it's not so much that the effort is "wasted" — everyone would certainly enjoy a better-looking game. The question is: what else could be done with the same resources? Is it the best use of limited time & people? Thus more of a lost opportunity to add or update other, also important aspects of the game. And some people use "wasted effort" as shorthand for that idea.

Just as well Anet do not think like you and are upgrading the textures. Well done Anet! Keep it up! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hope they think like game developers. I get to enjoy the fruits of their labors without having to weigh costs & benefits. But... I didn't actually offer any opinion about whether they should update textures or not. I simply restated the situation they have to deal with: is it the best use of their resources?

Fenom.9457 Posted June 24, 2018 Share Posted June 24, 2018 This game has held up extremely well, I’m a graphics snob and it is my favorite game. But I’ll never say no to graphics updates Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
