Here are 8k screenshots from Breath of the Wild.
I had to endure 10FPS gameplay to get them, so hopefully you enjoy the results.

The screenshot were taken with a system using the following:
Ryzen R7 1700 @ 3.9GHz
GTX 1080Ti

For more details on BotW emulation take a look at my other thread:

Why are you "competing" against yourself?

Surprisingly, they all pretty much look the same through my 720p laptop screen.

Edit: the improvements I would really want from BoTW are not really fixable by way of resolution bump. Sure 4k downsampling is very decent AA, but I want better draw distance (over the Switch version that is), higher res textures, better and more frequent bump mapping (especially in rocky areas or transitional areas between grass and rock) and better geometry/higher poly count. Also better lighting in some situations and more, as well as more varied foliage.

I love the aesthetic of the game and would not want it touched, but in a perfect world it would look like that first E3 trailer that we saw. It's still a beautiful game but that trailer leaves me wanting more.

A dog-eat-dog situation is one in which people are willing to harm each other or to use dishonest methods in order to achieve what they want.

I'm saying that dog you just posted isn't competing with anyone.

From a practical point of view there is no real point to this. I mean you had to endure playing at 10fps for nothing since you couldn't ACTUALLY enjoy the game at 8K...

And before anyone asks the obvious question, here is the answer: He can't cause there are no 8K screens on the market yet.

But it sure was a good excuse to have a dog chasing its own tail in this thread.
I think the phrase served its purpose.



I won't be mildly impressed until some 16K ones. Peasant.
