And this to was the point of a thread I made a while back.
It can't be denied that while there.. it gets harder and harder to spot the difference in resolutions as they go higher. Especially if keeping screen size and viewing distance the same.
The average person gaming on a TV will have a 55"-65" and be sitting at around 8-10ft from that TV. 4k at the size and distance is honestly overkill and the real benefits of 4k at that distance will only really be appreciated a sizes of 75" and up. This average is being very generous as a majority of all gamers still game on sub 4k displays.
I am not saying that the difference in resolution isn't still there. But I just don't think it can be denied that it gets harder to spot. ANd I think the media feeds into this nonsense too. Like when you need to make a video where you have to zoom into an image by like 500% to be able to point out a difference...... well at that point you know this whole thing has gotten silly.
