Yeah, it's not a good set. Not sure what you can expect out of it.No offense, but it's a budget TV as far as LED tvs go. No local dimming, poor HDR performance, poor motion handling, only 60 hz native refresh rate. There are many better TVs.
I'm sure you're being snarky but a game designed for 720p or lower generally looks pretty damn bad at 2k and 4k. All those low res assets in perfect clarity. It's like the Onimusha rerelease where you have this super high res models on a low res background, doesn't look nearly as good as when the 3d and 2d are at a closer lower res.
Samsung Nu7100. Great TV, I'm very happy and it looks great after calibration. And yes I'm wearing my glasses lol.
I was fucking around. I know what you mean. You can def tell but there is some charm to it I think. Seeing these games at a super high res maxed out at 60 is pretty neat sometimes.I'm sure you're being snarky but a game designed for 720p or lower generally looks pretty damn bad at 2k and 4k.

People bring up HDR like it is tied to 4K, it's not. You can have 1080p 120Hz with HDR.
The whole problem is that most people don't have TVs that are bigger than 55 and they don't sit in the optimal viewing distance either, they probably sit a lot farther so the increase in resolution isn't that appreciable but you can see more frames no matter what. Even if your TV doesn't have the best PQ like the OP's, he can still see and appreciate a 60FPS game on that, probably a much better experience than a 4k 30 game on that screen. Most people don't have flagship TVs, they have average ones. On average I'd argue more frames is better value for more people. For TV streaming content, resolution is better.
