How about next time you actually take some screen shots in a area with shadows instead of scene mostly filled with ambient occlusion. Here is low and Ultra.

Here is a bigger picture with an interactive comparison "move the slider"

Now as for the difference between high and medium, almost identical. So I use medium. Low just removes too many shadows and they are too light. Medium is as good as high and is better for performance.

Do the same comparing medium and high both to ultra, high->ultra is still a good fps hit but quality wise the difference is very, very thin.How about next time you actually take some screen shots in a area with shadows instead of scene mostly filled with ambient occlusion. Here is low and Ultra.

I think a lot of the high-end settings in this game are supposed to be used in conjunction with each other. So if you have everything maxed out it will look a lot better than everything on high, or partially high and partially ultra.
This will probably come together further down the line when there have been significant patches for performance and quality, and a lot of people are running next-gen GPUs. So you figure, a year or two from now the game will look and run a lot better both from updates and new hardware. That's when the top end settings will come in to play.
