Is the visual upgrade worth it? Is it like night and day between HD and 4K visuals for this game?

Oh, and care to share screenshots of said 4K greatness? :)
 
Don't have screenshots, but it's not worth it. Not because of the game, or necessarily the Pro. It's because 4K definitely isn't worth it unless the game also has 4K assets to back it up. And that'd take something significantly more powerful than even Scorpio is supposed to be.

The Pro Lite performance is worth it though. Native 1080p, with a rock solid 30fps, and very, very little of the frame pacing micro-stutters the Pro High mode and the base PS4 version have. Meanwhile, the Xbox One version has a much more variable resolution scaler enabled, allowing it to drop as low as 768p if I recall. Plus, Square is trying to get a 60fps mode to happen soon, which will no doubt be Pro exclusive. But no, 4K gaming on Pro overall just isn't worth it. It upscales fine, but without 4K assets it's a case of severe diminishing returns.
