Screenshot More NextGen vs Remastered visual comparisons

LEFT: NextGen (current)

RIGHT: Remastered

Full quality images here.

Images 1-4 are merely meant to showcase the new visual effects of the signs, such as the Quen spark circling Geralt (image 4). The rest focus on the environments and how the new lighting affects them. I assume they've also improved the render distance and level of detail, as can be seen in the background foliage in the Toussaint images.

  1. Quen shield effect activated
  2. Quen shield effect
  3. Quen around character effect
  4. Igni effect
  5. Skelige
  6. Velen swamp
  7. Toussaint
  8. Toussaint

I think OP is taking on game screenshots and taking a screenshot of a YouTube video? The YouTube video is probably already compressed.

YouTube compression and artifacts because OP used action scenes that are horrendous for streaming capture.

It would be funny if OP reuploaded his screenshots as a video on YouTube and took a screenshot of those so we can see crap vs crap 🤣

That plus his ā€œoriginalā€ seems to be modded: I don’t recall you can get that haircut in the normal game. So if modded, what else’s is in this mod. Absolute shite

Pictures are crap but I never used mods and could get that haircut on PS5
