Well, I saw it in comparison videos on Youtube. You can find thos videos easily.
But this has been the case for many games in the last couple of years: hardly any differences between the different quality settings. "Medium Quality" looked practically the same as "High" or "Ultra". And if you didn't search for the difference, you wouldn't notice it. I don't remember all the games where this happened, but it was quite a lot.
The biggest difference was mostly only in comparison to "Low Quality", but in the case of the Dead Space Remake I didn't even see many differences there.

The graphics look not radically improved compared to games ~3 years ago yet they tax even the latest graphic cards...
The advantage is: there is almost no difference between Low and Ultra settings. So you can play on Low and anjoy the same quality with higher FPS.
The only difference I saw in comparison videos is, that a few areas are absolutely "dark" (on Low) but "light" on Ultra. It looks more like a glitch than something on purpose, because even on Low settings you have dynamic lighting (which looks fine even without raytracing). It doesn't really make sense that an area is absolutely black. As this doesn't happen in medium settings, I assume it's only a single option that you can switch on afterwards. So a mix of Low and Medium will probably give you good graphics quality).

QuoteBoth the Intel Iris Xe Graphics G7 and the AMD Radeon 680M got stuck loading the game and didn't even make it to the main menu.
