Islands Looking Low Poly?

    I know islands are supposed to look low-poly when far away to save memory. When recently I noticed that when looking through a spyglass, it also appears low-poly. Maybe I'm stupid or something, but don't think it was like this before. Is it suppose to look like this?

    By the way, sometimes, my items, players, and objects from up close are also low-poly ish or aren't fully rendered (textures look strange)

    Do you have textures set to cursed? That's the only time I see this.

    I think it's always been this way? The spyglass just zooms in on the current render level, it doesn't change LOD - that only happens when you get closer.

    Maybe I'm misremembering...

    It was never as bad as it is now. Today i got chased by a lowpoly shark, which got updated really late. Also yesterday my mate boarded a ship where the anchor wasn‘t loading in.
