| Nem said: I think you are looking at it wrong. What happens is that as tech evolves, the perceptable graphical difference from one generation to the next is less noticeabke by the human eye. I imagine next gen will be an even harder sell. It also begs the question, do we even need better graphics than this? Personally, i don't. Though i could do with better performance (60fps). That s what i'd like from next gen. |
Yeah, I'm convinced that 60 FPS with 4K is about all they will be able to do for next gen. Whether it's PC or otherwise. It just takes too much time for artists to put in enough work to get photo-realism. Even if a PC or console could process that level of detail, hiring the artists wouldn't be feasible. We already have artists working 60 hours a week, just to get the level of graphics that we see on current gen systems. And those games made by 60 hour weeks of labor, need to charge $60, plus an expansion pass to make money back. So unless we want games to cost $120 for a complete edition we are better off just staying where we are at graphicswise, and focusing on resolution/framerate for next gen.
