Here is a relevant quote from a randomly-googled article:
Longtime Elder Scrolls fans hoping Skryim would take full advantage of the PC's strengths: unfortunately we have to disappoint you. Game director Todd Howard says besides higher quality textures and bigger resolutions, it "looks the same" as on consoles, and it's "mostly a DirectX 9 game in terms of how the shaders work."
He does note DirectX 11 support is a possibility down the line, however: "When it comes to DirectX 11 there are things they get us for free, like performance gains. You’re going to get performance gains out of it versus an older version. But the specifics DX11 does, like tessellation and all that kinda stuff, we aren’t taking advantage of that right now. That doesn’t mean we won’t in the future. We aren’t right now because we want to author it so it looks great.”
On the bright side, the new engine means Skyrim looks quite lovely as is, just nothing mind-blowing, which it could be. No doubt the modding community will improve the situation before long, though.

Sometimes when i m hearing all these trash talk i just wanna vomit with what im hearing.The people are discusting.
We aren’t right now because we want to author it so it looks great.” <--They dont implement dx 11 so the game can look great.To me it looks like low textured [censored] on the walls.
If they think they created a great game graphicaly wise then i dont wanna have any words with them the people are totaly blind that they cant see how bad their texture are.They just pretend that it looks great and thats what makes them retards.
Only retards pretending trhings and give false promises.In my real life i dont have connections with [censored] people nor i want to have connections with them and with their games.
They svck just like Skyrim graphics
