Anyways, ESO looks pretty good at 4K but yes the modified hero engine runs like a dog with diarrhea.
Would be nice if Morrowind brought more eye candy and better performance from the engine.
ESO does NOT look good at higher resolutions.
I have a very high end machine.
I run a 2k ultrawide monitor (3440 x 1440).
All it means is I can see the ugly low poly models even more clearly.
To make this game bearable I run both the Hook64 graphics enhancer and a Reshade and SweetFX preset.
But even with all that, my GPU (gtx1080) only ever gets its usage up to 50%.
my GPU usage drops in a trial or pvp down to about 17% and my fps hits 15-30.
Why you ask?
Because as I stated before the threading is almost completely non-existent. 90% of all the cpu work gets done on a single core.
That means my beast 12 core cpu can only utilize less than 10% of its maximum power for this game.
Its a ridiculous bottleneck for a modern game.
and to answer the people asking em to compare ESO With other ugly MMOs like WoW, I would direct you to read what I said again. Being ugly is fine because you can run it on older machines. ESO looks ugly and still wont run on older machines.
Here is what ESO looks like on my PC.
As I said. the base game is repulsive.
