Find me one person that would say that on the entire site in fact. What's stupid is the notion that graphics literally mean nothing, and that's something that people have actually said in this thread. |
Simply because no one explicitly stated it doesn't mean that their statements did not imply that graphics were the most important feature of a game ...
You yourself said "It's a total falsehood to think that having a system with weaker graphics leads to better games in some way." which basically states "Any advancement in videogames that does not include an improvement in graphics can not lead towards better games"
The fact that you can improve Physics, AI, Controlls, as well as focus on making larger and more dynamic worlds without ever focusing on graphics would be pointless in your vision of what improvement is.
