This about best graphics on Switch not the game with the most feature set. Show me a open world game on switch that looks this good at 1080p. the game has great graphics for switch and looks beautiful, this is a subjective choice it's not that hard to understand. I also thinkBOTW looks beautiful and honestly it's very close but red dead just has way more detail. Playing this has really changed my mind and it seems like graphics didn't advance as much as I thought they did.

The feature sets I listed fall into graphics.

I shall list some of them again.

* Global illumination (Radiosity)
* Local reflections. (Not just a cube map.)
* Ambient Occlusion.
* Bokeh Depth of field.

The Witcher 3 is employing better graphics than Red Dead Redemption on Switch. It's an "impossible port" not a 7th gen port.
Also open world.

You are getting:
* Screen space reflections.
* Ambient Occlusion.
* God Rays.
* Motion Blur.
* Temporal Anti-Aliasing.

And more.

Is it a 1080P output? No. But graphics aren't all about resolution, otherwise everything would be 8k by now with PS2 visuals.

Again this really doesn't matter and up to personal taste. like mario wonder and mario oddysia are in the list and they aren't pushing the tech that witcher 3, doom, and the more technically  advanced switch games. it's all about balance and red dead is the perfect blance it still pushing the switch cause it aint running the game at 60fps like the others games on the list do i have no idea to what you are even talk about here. like doom is probably way more techically advanced then prime remaster but everyone is picking that over doom. also using advanced garphic tech doesn't help much when the game is looking like mud witcher 3 for example and doom, that's why they are not even on the list for DF or anyone here.

Naturally, this is partly down to John and Oliver's personal tastes; while technology can be judged objectively, art direction is subjective. Still, it's cool to have their input; Switch may be low end kit compared to the competition, but it's still proven itself capable of producing beautiful results in the hands of talented artists and programmers.
