  1. I was thinking about pixel counting, the simple math of counting how many edges are in a certain section of a picture to find the resolution, and testing with bloodborne made me realise the lines don't even need to be straight.

      I thought you'd need perfectly straight lines to get an accurate sample count but that's not true. every measurement in this picture all boils down to 1/2 and since the original screenshot was in 4K that means the resolution of the game is 1080p which is correct.

        trying to accurately measure the resolution of a more modern game with much more sophisticated antialiasing still scares me a little but this is a good thing to understand when measuring
