to be fair, the 4k textures etc take up most of the space in large 3d games.
valheim has a low poly and low quality textures style with a lot of repeats.
it only looks good thanks to lighting.
with such a design choice you have an unfair advantage over photorealism and large variety.
we should however compare different games of the same style.
did they use the 8k ulta detailed Hamburger models or did they actually think about Ressource and space management ?
It’s also, as tons of people have said about the Arkham series, about art style. The Valheim style looks really good because they have incredible artists working on the game.
Just like Arkham Knight is still one of the best looking games I’ve ever seen even though it’s almost 9 years old, Valheim will still probably look just as good the same amount of time later.

Well we had to use the 10k triangle toothbrush model, no two ways about it! (/s/)
