One thing people have noticed is worse textures on Star Wars Outlaws on switch 2 vs XSS.

Which doesn't make a lot of sense given the RAM advantage switch 2 has. On Cyberpunk switch 2 textures are the same as PS5.

It looks like developers are gutting games file sizes on switch 2 as Outlaws is like 18gb on Switch 2. That probably has more to do with textures. Hogwarts Legacy also has a small file size.

Since they aren't even releasing it on a physical card, why is this happening? Unless they think they are being kind to our storage space?

Maybe Nintendo pressured them into making smaller file sizes.

XSS texture quality is really bad on Forza 8. Even on 30fps Quality mode, everything looks a bit blurry and jaggy. Sounds like Switch 2 has compressed them even further. 12GB RAM just isn't enough these days. RT requires a lot of RAM.
