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.

I  believe this is the problem with most people thinking.  We are not talking about synchronous 3d Graphics we are talking about physics.  We are talking about calculations not sending over any graphical over the wire.  People need to understand first what is actually being said before making statements or saying something can or cannot be done.  Its very evident that its being done what we do not know is the implementation.
