Games with impressive textures

Its lcd, it just sucks.

Generally speaking, I find most texture mods to look worse than the lower res vanilla texture when seen in game.

the environmental tech is gorgeous. the story high school brainlet tier, and the gameplay is non existent. so kotakupapershotgamers loved it.

That post the second image capped is retarded, texture work is miles better now, but most importantly every main character in hl2 uses edited photos for facial textures. The studio that made hza is shit,

Im sure that game uses photogrammetry for its models/textures, not skillful art work.

You have no idea what you are talking about.

Nah, recently got back and played warhead. It has definitely aged, graphics wise. The faces of the koreans looked like paper masks.

Just look at this chicken. It lacks detail.

The fact that I cannot think of a single fucking game is sad. Even Ethan Carter has mediocre texture res. Sure they look good from a distance, but once you get close they look extremely pixelated and flat, which is unacceptable considering that the entire thing was simply a picture that did not need to be so severely downgraded. They had legit good textures at their disposal and fucked them up.

We have reached the point where absolute unplayable trash like Battlefield 1 are the best looking vidya. Their game is garbage, but the texturework and assets are to-notch. But once again they even fucked that one up by making a shitty console-tier draw distance that makes every texture and asset look like garbage from 10 meters away.

Pic related what games can look like with god-tier performance, but no studio bothers with visuals or optimization anymore.
It might seem like it, but I'm just using their work as an example. Anyone actually paying them for assets is a brainlet who can't own a budget camera and go make better textures in his backyard.

What is the 4th image?

Just a UE4 scene using megajew assets
