it does not matter:

that's the reason why we still have 0.4mp cams and mobiles with 0.2mp cams
and fulldh TV's are selling well and full hd cams also and 24MP+ cams are used by professional photographers for pictures that are in most cases sub 20inches big.

What does this have to do with gaming resolution?

maybe my english is too bad for irony

but obviously resolution always matters.

As pictures and TV works the same way as Videogames(eye watching pictures) it is a pretty good example that resolution matters.

I work as an off set printer for paperboard/cartboard boxes.The carton quality is shit(not neutral /white enough),usually noone(customer) gives a shit how cardboard boxes look like.Though this is well known by the industry the Resolution(dpi) is very high and quality standards for color etc pretty high=more expensive.

If even a shitty paperboard needs high res(usually multiple times higher than full HD)+color quality standards to (unconciously)attract a customer ,than HD really matters.
