Sure, the difference between playing the PC version of a
game on minimum and maximum settings is a big one. Itâs supposed to be. But the
gulf between the less-intensive option for The Elder Scrolls Online and the
all-of-the-things alternative looks massive.
The side-by-side comparison comes courtesy
of IGN, who ran the upcoming MMO
with the graphics turned all the way up and all the way down. The advantage of a
low setting, of course, is that folks with less robust hardware will still be
able to play the game. But, thereâs no avoiding the fact that doing so leaves
you with visuals that look like they came from two console generations ago.
On the other hand, if youâve got a set-up that can handle a more
demanding graphics load, youâre going to get a nice level of detail as you
slash and spellcast your way through the upcoming online release. Set your componentsâand
expectationsâ accordingly.
