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.

You've denied the phrase of its meaning, that can't be!

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.

You'd only get all that with a remaster of BoTW, which won't be coming until the next two generations of Nintendo consoles, I think.

That ain't 8K though.
