It looks like there are no shadows beyond 20 meters and no AO either. Or incredibly ineffective AO. Together, those two facts conspire to make it look flatter than games released 8 years ago.Is it me or there is just no AO in those shots ?
I hope the Nvidia Gameworks rumors are true, HBAO+ would definitely make a huge difference there.
I almost have to wonder if someone isn't trolling hard by posting PC screens at the lowest possible settings and labeling them PS4.
Those aren't shadows, those are simply surfaces which don't face the sun and aren't lit.
