Whole bunch of games you could select texture quality on install back in the days when games came on CDs.

I must have missed them!

On some games, like Fallout 4, the "HD" textures are free DLC. I don't know why we can't just do that for most games.

Yeah, I also remember some games allowing you to choose compressed or uncompressed textures when they first started to be supported by new cards
