Things go well until comments like this come in. Indeed ps4 is underpowered, it is low end hardware. 

Game looks gorgeus because they use some "tricks" like 30fps cap, small scenarios and a lot of scripts. In my case i have seen games that look better.

Hell crysis looks better and we are talking about a 2007 game...

Ye dude Crisis looks nothing liek UC 4. And ye a PC has the possibility of doing graphics better than tihs, but the thing is devs almost never waste the time doing it, the compact ans specialized nature of consoles make it easier to use the so called "tricks" and devs who know their way aroun a console can make some stuf that seen impossible. Heck the Order een with all the critisism it gets is a game that looks better than almost anythign else out there.

I'd argue that the closed nature of consoles doesn't make it easier to use the "tricks" you mention. It instead becomes a necessity to find those "tricks" in order to make the games look better than what came before. It's actually harder to make convincingly good looking games on consoles compared to their PC counterpart because you cannot brute force anything. You have to optimize your code as much as possible to get the most of the console, unlike on PC.
