You don't see any more detail, you have to make more detail. Take a one pixel camera and take a picture of your city you cant add any more detail. Take a look here and see what we mean. |
Low resolutions can obscure detail. So yes, you do see more detail when you increase the resolution, if said assets already exceeded what was visible with a low resolution display. It doesn't matter if my PS4 is rendering Killzone if I am playing it at 240p, for example. You won't see it with such a horrible image quality. There is an argument for higher resolutions for the sole purpose that they improve image quality. This argument is separate from the argument that higher resolutions allow you to also have higher resolution textures, more complex geometry, and more /better assets overall.
