They will hit the graphics celing sooner tough, there's a limit to what they will be able to do without affecting other aspects of the game, and then they will have to changer their methods and focusing in other aspects. Art style will be the first thing and would probably see less photorealsitic games if it were to happen. Im supposing tough, there's always room for a change of minds even with next gen being a big jump.

no they can just other things lol, who needs better AI or more dynamic enviroments when better graphics make for better advertising. If it's harder to differenciate in grphics it will just mean more work is put into it.
No level of hardware power will force gameplay innovation, but more power does allow developers to do new things like fully dynamic enviroments, more complex AI, larger enviroments, more veriaty in NPCs in any one area etc.

Outside FULLY dynamic enviromets, the others arent really new things. There have been games that showed some of those this gen. But you made me realize my mistake, "force" woul be the wrong word, "can lead to" would be a better phrase.
|
less limitations can lead to new ideas just as easilly as more limitations. Just with more power there are more possibilities as anything that could be done on lesser hardware is still possible yet you can also have new or better things. Ether way it's all up to the developers.

i agree, but there's the down side that i belive this gen has showed. less limitations can lead to lazyness a lot more than having the pressure of them. So i see less possible to devs of this gen to give birth to new ideas if a big jump happens, its up to them at the end really. Might be my own selfishness that dont let me trust them anymore. There's the excpetions tough.
