Play on medium settings !!!GASP!!! Or worse, play it at 1080!
1080 and 1440 is a pretty big difference. 1440 and 4k, not so much. Definitely agree that there’s a point with settings where you just don’t really notice the textires/reflections/etc. when you’re playing the game.
I mean if you've you hardware that needs upgrading, you aren't playing new games at medium anymore either and your display is probably 1080p anyway.
Idiot me bought a 4k laptop and be fucked if I'm not gonna use every single pixel on that screen (even if I can't tell a difference between 1440 and 4k)
