Exactly my thoughts, if we're going to make a jump it should be the most worthwhile of them all since next gen may very well be the last gen and I don't want our last games to suffer in technical quality just because of some premature move/planning/thinking ... 

This gen should last as long as the last one did ... (If Xbox 360 lasted 8 years then so should PS4 too.) 

We may suffer now since our update frequency is lower but it won't be so bad if our next gen consoles are backwards compatible at least devs can retroactively patch PS4 games to run better on it's successor ... 

PS5 should be ideally near 2x the power of Vega 64 with 16 GB of HBM3 sporting 2 TB/s of bandwidth ... 

I disagree. Why would you want to have just one big jump when you could just as well have regular steady improvements. People who don't want to pay money can still wait but it's overall better if we had steady new hardware releases every 2 years. Just letting people rot on their century old hardware isn't the best solution.

And with gradual improvements on hardware over the years backwards compatibility is basically guaranteed.

Ps4 original graphics are good enough for me to last until 2021. Ps4 pro graphics more then enough. There's expensive PCs for those who don't think that's enough but I,  along with millions think it is.  

 

In 2021 I want to buy the ps5 for just $400 and I want it to be a big jump in power on the ps4/pro.
