Why do I get the feeling that this cloud dependency is going to be their downfall?

If the cloud some how leads to more technically impressive games that X1 or PS4 can't do offline... I don't see how that's a bad thing.

Cloud/remote content can be invaluable, but expecting synchronous 3d graphic content to work on a massive scale is a fool's errand, and a total PR fluff/hype trick. It's insultingly impractical under the most optimistic outlook once you think realistically about it.
