I mean I can see it personally, I always thought the graphics seemed lackluster ever since the first leaked screenshot. If you compare the graphics to their last gen Dishonored 2, it especially becomes apparent how dated it looks, the more linear nature of Dishonored 2 seemed to allow them to push graphics harder than on the open world Redfall, that plus I get the feeling that Zenimax reigned in their budgets from a full AAA budget to more of a large scale AA budget after Dishonored 2 underperformed in sales, which would have also resulted in a cut to the graphics quality on Redfall (and Deathloop, which similarly looked worse than Dishonored 2, in spite of both games being built on current gen hardware as opposed to Dishonored 2 being built for PS4/XB1).
That being said, I did see a noticeable graphics improvement on the launch trailer compared to the preview build the critics got to play on the preview event, which was nice to see. Hopefully that improvement wasn't just a PC ultra settings thing and the game looks nearly as good as that launch trailer on the Series X 30 fps quality mode. If it does look about launch trailer good on the 30 fps quality mode I will be happy.
