Higher res textures coming?

[Zezlar]

We'll get them "soon."

We know how long "soon" means.

Yoshida: We have no plans to change the resolution.

... A thousand ews. :/ The low resolution textures are just hideous.

A direct X 11 client will be made available at some point, but i think they said it was going to be like a year from launch.

zoom in on your magitek mount, the low textures look like a nintendo game from the 80s lul. overall i think the game looks decent if you don't look too hard, kind of like vanilla skyrim.

That's when you get when the game is made for 7 year old hardware.

Apparently have to wait for the PS4 release of the game before DX11 support becomes available for the PC version.

Upgrading to DX11 doesn't magically increase texture resolution. That has been done manually by the developers. All DX11 means is improved shader effects, enhanced tessellation, antialiasing, occlusion, postprocessing effects, and so on. It'll improve the overall graphics quality, yes, but the current low resolution textures will still be an eyesore.
