Graphics Settings

Graphics can be adjusted during gameplay via Graphics Settings under Options in the System Menu (opened by pressing Esc).
If the game feels sluggish, this can often be improved by changing the framerate cap.

Graphics Settings can also be accessed via Options in the Title Menu/Main Menu.

Screen Resolution Select the screen resolution.
If the window settings are set to Default, window size will change to match this setting.
If they are set to Borderless, the window will resize to match your display resolution.
Window Settings Change the window mode.
Select the game screen mode: Default, Fullscreen, or Borderless. This can also be changed by pressing F9.
Note: Borderless mode removes the frame of the window and stretches it to the size of the screen for a pseudo full screen.
Framerate Cap Adjust your monitor's framerate limit.
VSync Turn the function that reduces screen tearing on or off.
Overall Quality Set the quality of the graphics.
Selecting High, Standard, or Low will automatically change to the relevant graphic settings.
Custom allows you to manually adjust individual parameters.
Texture Quality Select the quality of the textures.
Shadow Quality Adjust shadow quality.
Local Reflections Quality Select the quality of the reflection processing.
Effect Quality Select the quality of the effects.
Anti-Aliasing Turn the smoothing of the objects' contours on or off.
