Middle Earth: Shadow of War [XPA, XO, PC, PS4]

The reason for separate downkoad packs and all is because the game doesnt seem designed around the latest SDK so they took a quicker easier route of separating things out. As it turns out, its only 4K movies available on One X. The developers only allow for enhanced textures on the PC.

Still, it doesn't explain the fact that this game doesn't need a '4K pack'. It needs good textures from the get go. There is no excuse for this on current consoles.

Textures on the X are much higher res than base XBONE or both PS4 and PS4 pro. Don't know if they are up to the level of quality of the texture pack on PC, but they're much, much better than the other console versions textures. On the X the 4K movie pack is optional, but the texture one is not, on PC both are optional.

His point is that the textures are unusually poor on the old systems. Maybe it's nostaglia speaking, but I'm pretty sure Shadow of Mordor had excellent textures no matter the system.

That is some fine looking mud.
