definately an improvement! the colors are much more natural and IMO matching that of wilderness (as opposed to golf-course grass), and the models are quite nicely integrated. the lighting is better too
for me LPV + DFAO in a simple scene reduces the framerate to half, and the quality isn’t that great either (LPV leaks through walls and DFAO makes “moving dirtyness”) but I blame it on the WIP tech behind it 
btw check your PM
