Solid visual design will not be outdated so easily. Super Mario Galaxy still looks amazing today, for example. To claim graphical progress makes older games unplayable is absolutely ridiculous.

...in your utterly unsubstantiated and illogical opinion. Why do I say this? Polygon count. It is that simple. Super Mario Galaxy looks dire, games such as WoW look dire. Style only masks poor graphics for so long, then they will end up looking bad. When subsurface scattering, tessellation, and other features become more common place, no level of style will be able to hide shody character models, poor textures, and crappy lighting. If what you said had an ounce of truth in it, then why is the gpu market worth so much?

What the?

You haven't yet realized most people don't care about any of that stuff? The best selling games never relied on graphics. Look at the biggest games on the PC today, Minecraft and League of Legends. How do you explain that?
