The video is showing off "high frame rate" setting, which of course makes no sense in a 30fps file

I want the imagery to be like how users in neogaf posts on pc screenshot thread. They look like bullshots hehe
As for them looking like "bullshot" PC screens, I can tell you that the game looks gorgeous on PC most of the time with the default graphics, but even so a lot of those screenshots were taken with ReShade, SweetFX, ENBSeries, or GeDoSaTo post-processing programs that enhance the image quality even further while still being completely playable (@60fps or higher). Though these programs are also another reason why the PlayStation 4 Pro version won't look as gorgeous as many of those screens.
That's one of the beauties of PC gaming, you can customize and enhance most games' graphics as you see fit.
Mafia 3 for example, with a simple ReShade makeover looks far better than with the default filters and effects, Driftwood posted videos of the PC version with both default graphics and with the ReShade filters, so you can compare them if you want.
The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt is also another example, there are many ReShade settings that make the graphics look as beautiful as the E3 2014 trailer or even better than that. Someone posted great images of TW3 in one of its articles here on Gamersyde well worth checking out.
I guess as long as the quality of the image is much sharper than it really is but still able to hold a steady FPS im good.
