Why are the textures so ugly and blurred on high even on 16x?

texture resolution is your problem, not anisotropic filtering at x16
set texture resolution to high or ultra and see the changes

Because the game uses heavy anti aliasing, it uses that because like all modern titles it's made for 4k not 1080p. It looks blurry as hell on 1080p as a result.

i have everything on high but still

you can always increase the Resolution Scale setting, but i dont recommend that since its very taxing on performance, other than that set TAA to high, MSAA to x2 and increase TAA Sharpening to max. test it out

im running at 1080p all ultra, nothing looks blurry

texture quality below ultra looks really bad, even on high difference is huge.
impact isnt too big, so this one should be on ultra in all cases, unless idk maybe a 2gb card cant handle ultra because of low memory.

comparison @ about 5 mins

Most textures in this game ain't that high quality even at max texture setting and on top of that TAA blurs a lot even with max sharpening.

I have radeon sharpening enabled and it makes the game look sharp enough for me.

Yeah just leave the textures on ultra. You can improve things by either externally sharpening the game's blurry TAA, or sharpening more than the game's options slider using the config file.

Documents\Rockstar Games\Red Dead Redemption 2\Settings

Open the file 'system.xml' in Wordpad and locate the "<sharpenIntensity value="1.000000" />"

change the value to say '1.500000' or '2.000000' for example and see what you think, it's personal preference. Be aware though that if you make changes in this file, it will revert to it's original value if you start messing around in the graphics settings again. You can set the file to read-only, but then just remember that it is read-only for future graphics tweaking.

Yes it does. You're just used to 1080p but trust me it's blurry as hell.
try to increase the resolution scale up to 2000 and the picture will be great.

This is nonsense.

At 1080p TAA is always a little blurry, but this game is worse than others. It's also why many games that deploy this form of AA have a 'Sharpening' option in the game settings.

If you dont think it's blurry go to the card table and play a game of cards.. look at your cards in your hand and notice how blurry and crappy it looks. I finished the whole single player mode and i can say fairly this game sucks.. it's just an over hyped pile
