Rendering/Comic Book effect problems?
Okay, I don't know what to describe this as beyond Rendering Distance settings being too low. I'm sorry I don't have any screenshots to show, but what's happening is an effect I noticed in witcher 2 as well - that is at certain angles shadows on objects will get a "comic-book" or "Halftone" effect like this

That and nod to mention the fact that detail-pop-in is horrible now. I had no issues noticing anything like that in the version of the game on release day, but now I notice it EVERYWHERE. and as far as I can tell there are no LoD distance adjusters or anything.

So I want this issue known and I want it fixed. I know I'm just one more person griping about graphics, but it is so immersion breaking when i when I'm talking to someone, and their staff on their shoulder keeps disappearing/reappearing or the object they are handing me materializes into existance in their open hand when it should have been there already.

This is a common issue in the game, and the pop in and rendering distance is more noticeable in high traffic areas like novigrad. There's a couple of mods on nexus that can help alleviate the issue or try updating your graphics drivers. Toning down your graphics setting might also have an effect.

Some have noted that the game deliberately keeps things in the distance rendered low in order to increase performance, the same goes for the pop in. So if your pc/gpu is struggling with the game then that might be causing it. In the nvidia settings change these ->manage 3d settings ->programs settings-> witcher 3-> Opengl rendering gpu ->choose your graphics card if it's faster.
Also for the texture filtering settings:
Ani sample op- off
Neg Lod bias- allow
Tex filtering quality-Quality
Trilinear Op- On

Triple buffering-Off
