You seem to be dramatically overestimating the effort needed to hit stuff like 1080p, but ignoring that, 900p has always been 'okay' for the majority. 1080p is just better. How important that difference is mostly comes down to the person.

I don't think I ever implied that in the OP. In fact, I want to know if people that shunned on games with sub-1080p res, changed their mind about it or gaming in general.

Perhaps i'm just misinterpreting it then, but 'games that focused on satisfying gamers' 1080p lust, have fallen from grace especially' implies that 1080p is somehow responsible.

Anyway, i don't think any but a minority have ever actively shunned a game simply because it wasn't 1080p. The closest to that we've ever had was the console power debates, during which many PS4 owners would champion 1080p and the like in response to X1 owners that denied there was a hardware gap (or insisted we just had to wait for [insert secret sauce]). Now that X1 owners have settled down on that front, so have the reactionary PS4 owners. Even then it was mostly just a minority from both fanbases. A very loud, repetitive minority :p

As for the aforementioned minority that do act like the lack of 1080p makes something somehow unplayable, they're unlikely to ever change that view. They're mostly just engaged in a console war by proxy, so the core point is irrelevant.
