Fxaa is a simple filter that doesn't do anything other than smearing the image. It is garbage and mostly useless.

TAA is a true antialiasing that fixes all the pixelation but it causes blur, especially on lower resolutions like 1080p.

However sharpness doesn't work with TAA because it cannot sharpen the image while in movement.

so for 1080p is only blur or sharp then as the option?

The anti aliasing is horrendous in this game. It has the worst AA options of any single game in my entire steam library. Just as you said FXAA has sharp edges everywhere and TAA is just a blurry mess. I really miss MSAA from Warhammer 2. Personally I forced my AMD card to to run Radeon Super Resolution (RSR) which overrides the in game AA options. It makes the game look much more tolerable if a slight bit darker and very slightly blurrier. You can probably look into a driver level AA option for whatever GPU you have. If not that then maybe look into a third party shader program like ReShade to help.

Unfortunately this is correct.

I use the nvidia software to apply sharpening myself.

At 1440 I use taa high with amd sharpening at 80%.

The problem is different. Why did CA remove normal smoothing? Which was in wh2. Answer: CA thinks that everyone is playing 4k, which means that CA is putting a big ♥♥♥♥ on their customer base...

Using TAA high on ultra settings and the game looks fine. As in, not blurry and not too sharp either, like most games are supposed to look. Could the sharpness come from a sharpening tool you're using?

But I noticed blurriness sometimes persisting for a split second after moving the camera around. The game does not have motion/camera blur options from what I remember tho.

Yah, this engine is not ageing well. You could try Reshade to help it along graphically. I load it on my ModManager build .exe and it works fine for my hot potato that runs this game.
