I have to be honest, with each passing year, as we're getting closer to realism, I'm getting less and less interested in photorealistic visuals. Tech itself, sure, since it can be potentially used to make stylized realism (which I prefer) look better, but then again, I would rather have all that juice used for tech that can deliver proper fully physics based worlds and narrative AIs.

I can't speak for AI (although I wish I could, given it's far overdue), but physics should see quite the increase next gen.

Well, I'm hoping for that, though I doubt (given how slow progress was in last two generations) that without paradigm shift in how 3D worlds are being made (polygons vs something like voxels) there will be significant strides made.
