[PC] Graphics seem strange after the patch (SCREENSHOTS + SPECS)

Noticed some weird things after the patch. Hair is a lot shinier, and some of the texture effects (e.g. Varric's red satin shirt texture) seem to have disappeared. Here are my specs and some comparison screenshots:

Videocard: NVIDIA GEFORCE GTX 670

Approx. Total Memory: 4038 MB

Dedicated Vram: 2048 MB GDDR 5

Driver: 344.75 

[Dxdiag system information]

Processor: intel core i7-4770 CPU @ 3.4GHz

Memory: 16384 RAM

Direct X: 11

Before the patch, I played on Ultra settings with no performance loss. 

HERE ARE THE SCREENSHOTS: http://imgur.com/a/0Mn2M#0

I've labeled them and included descriptions of things that are weird/different. Hopefully this is helpful in fixing the problem.

also, I'm no expert on 3d game/graphic design, but some of the issues look like they're related to Layering issues ... for example, in the 4th and 5th screenshot, pay attention to the bird-totem-thing in the background. It looks like the layer that's supposed to be on top got rearranged to the bottom.

    you think the characters look bad, go to the coast and look at the water ☹️

  • Game looks weird on my system as well. I noticed some... weirdness in the Exalted Plains, too, the grass is.. uh.. just looks very strange. The game itself feels like its.. I can't really explain. Much lower detail. Looks surreal. Checked the settings, though, they're the same.

    Using AMD HD 7950.

    Wow, those screenshots from the OP are telling.  All that nice detail and shine is just gone, except for in the skunk hair.  Not to mention that scenes in the game that are sunnier look blown out, too bright and the detail is gone.  What a mess EA, what a horrible ugly mess.
