We're still a long way off from where you can use a scope or binoculars and get a decent view.
With 1080p not only better textures are important but also a longer draw distance. So far we just get a few low res landmarks and bare features in the distance.
Just cause 2 is still the best for long distance imo, not perfect but very impressive.
Skyrim sucks in comparison
And Far cry 3 isn't much better
Climbing on top of a mountain for an incredible view usually ends in disappointment.
2050?
On consoles Ni No Kuni is pretty good, low res and simple graphics help
