I have a 40" 1080p lcd, and I find it VERY noticeable. On your last point, yes, that will happen. But if it happens to people with good gaming rigs, then it's a valid complaint. The point here is that in 2012, low resolution graphics are NOT an acceptable option to cover up a bad engine, poor coding, or whatever incompetence got us into this mess. The even greater point is that Bioware has shown the honesty of a middle school brat on this issue.

I'd schedule an appointment with your eye doctor

This game would be completely dead by now if it wasn't a Star Wars title. Fact.

hallelujah!

Because this is 2004

As mad as I am about all the false advertisement, these are NOT high resolution textures- http://i44.tinypic.com/357nktv.jpg That's a screenshot I took of 1:21 in the vid. They clearly show low resolution textures.

Even though I agree with said points, I can't help but say "oh look, it's this thread again"

that about sums it up, yes

In greater detail- It's all about doubt. It wasn't until they knew the sith had returned that they knew they had been 'blind'. What else weren't they seeing?! The inner turmoil caused by this level of doubt gave rise to paranoia so subtle, that they themselves couldn't tell the difference between intuition and unfounded doubt. Without knowlege of the Sith's return, the risk of training Anakin would have seemed far less. There is a huge psychological difference between a scholarly understanding that the Sith existed LONG ago in the past, and knowing they exist NOW. Knowing they are blind to the Sith, they begin to fear what they would normally not fear, seeing things in the shadows, fumbling in the dark. Like Anakin's fear of loosing Padme being the very thing that lead to loosing her, so was the council's fear of loosing Anakin to the dark side the very thing that lead to them loosing him. By pushing him away, distrusting him, and treating him like a timebomb, they gave Palpatine the opportunity to be to Anakin what the council had not been. So what if the council had never been alerted to the Sith's return? Was the fear and danger they saw in Anakin colored by their own fear of the Sith? Was it their fear of him that drove him away? There is no way to prove a 'what if', but I believe this is what really happened.

Palpatine's plans involved intricate manipulation of the Jedi order. The chaos and doubt brought on by knowing of the Sith's return had the council making moves that they would not have made otherwise... Moves that Palpatine had foreseen as part of his plans. Revealing the Sith's return at just the right time was a crucial part of his plans. It wasn't a blunder of incompetence or an act of impatience. It was calculated psychological warfare.

OP has to respect that. I, however, do not. Like you, I believe that others' opinions don't count.

I'm sure this makes pvp servers exciting...
