I do want an answer from Yoshida, or someone on the team about HD textures. Surely they didn't just up and delete all the assets after releasing the content?
The PS4 has as much memory as your typical PC so it can't be that.

Why? I don't know. Maybe they want to keep load times down - for ALL platforms; PC hard drives aren't much faster than those in consoles.

And seriously, before HD textures, it would be nice if they actually have mip-mapping for a ton of textures like the floor of the Alex boss with the tanks.
