Hogwarts Legacy players may be wondering why the game has “bad graphics,” with some struggling with texture pop-in that makes textures in the game’s open world not load. So how do you fix these issues? Fortunately, there’s an easy solution.
Hogwarts Legacy’s ‘bad graphics’ and how to fix textures popping in
Hogwarts Legacy’s “bad graphics” can actually be rectified with the flick of a switch. Head to the graphics settings menu, and make sure the option called ‘Depth of Field’ is activated. This will dramatically reduce the amount of texture pop-in, increasing the number of objects that load in the distance and making the graphics look better.
Without Depth of Field activated, Hogwarts Legacy won’t load many textures, causing its terrain to look ugly and blurry. However, with a simple flick of the switch you can resolve this pop-in issue, dramatically improving the appearance of its graphics in the process.
For even better visuals, players can switch to the game’s Fidelity mode — though be warned that this comes at the cost of framerate, with its performance taking a hit as a result of this change. It is strongly recommended that players at least opt for the Balanced mode, though Performance mode with Depth of Field activated provides a good balance between looks and performance.
