Those are still Full HD VS old ones :)Comment by mremaknuIt would probably be helpful if it was clarified just what they're going to change before the game releases; right now there's a not-unreasonable concern that all that's going to happen is the video quality will improve, which uh. Kinda only highlights how dated the original graphics are. I did notice more details in existing models, but those models are ancient, and making them higher-definition emphasizes the uncanny valley in a lot of cases.
