This is why I laugh every time I see people talking about a PS5 in 2019 with 12TFLOPS and 16GB of RAM. Going from what we have right now to native 4K is not going to impress the masses. Even if devs start building for the baseline of 12TF & 16GB and only doing 1440p checkerboarded to 4K with extra effects, the difference is not going to be big enough for the masses to see.

I absolutely love my PS4 Pro, PSVR, and my Z9D. For me 4K and Checkerboard 4K with HDR are a massive leap, but only a couple of people have been impressed. At this point graphics and resolution are so good that it takes massive leaps for your average consumer to see a difference that wows them.

Honestly for me 4K alone has never been that impressive. It wasn't unil I saw the combination of 4K & HDR TVs that I got excitd. Otherwise my 7 year old 1080p Full Array LED Sony was still one of the best looking TVs I had seen, and I would have just stayed with it. I also don't get to effected by frame rate. When I had my PC I preffered resolution and effects so I typically played games between 20 and 30fps, and it really didn't bother me.

It will be very interesting to see where things go in the future, but I think this lack of perception being common. I think if Sony trys to make a device called PS5 in 2019 - 2020 with 12 TFLOPS and 16GB of RAM it will face hard times. I still stand by the idea Sony should be honest and call the next revision a full 4K PS4, and wait and bring PS5 when they can deliver something that will without question blow peoples socks off.



Stop hate, let others live the life they were given. Everyone has their problems, and no one should have to feel ashamed for the way they were born. Be proud of who you are, encourage others to be proud of themselves. Learn, research, absorb everything around you. Nothing is meaningless, a purpose is placed on everything no matter how you perceive it. Discover how to love, and share that love with everything that you encounter. Help make existence a beautiful thing.
