I really don’t regret buying my ps5, but I could totally still be on ps4 as I’m mostly playing games from the previous generation or available on it.

But at one point, there’ll be quite a few games which wouldn’t be able to run on ps4. The question is when.

I also feel like we don’t need to have more beautiful games than Last of Us 2, so I hope one day we’ll stop focusing so much on better looking games.

Remember when FarCry was released, and people were compairing the ingame screenshots with real photos? We all thought "Man, this is it. It can't get any better than this".

I remember feeling this way about the cut scenes in Dante's Inferno on Xb360.

Well I’m not against games becoming more impressive visually per se, but against the fact that because of this games are becoming way more expensive to produce and companies are now risk averse.

But yeah I might have said « this is it » in front of quite a few games 😅

I certainly did that with Gran Turismo 6 on the PS3

GTA 6 is looking to be the first title that will need the newer hardware. That's all I can think of off top.

Yeah probably. Cyberpunk was another example even if it came way earlier in the lifecycle.
