    Specifically, people are talking about the ground and rock textures closeup. The current ground textures in Thanalan look normal mapped, while the ones in the 2.0 screenshot look almost like they're just textures.

    I noticed as soon as I saw the 2.0 screens. If those screens are indeed how it looks when the game is run at the recommended settings, then I'd say the textures did get a minor downgrade. It's well worth it to give up some of the detail to achieve the variety in design we're getting and the game still looks amazing, possibly even more so thanks to the real-time lighting upgrades, but let's not pretend like it isn't there.
