Your expectations don’t necessarily require cutting edge tech. Just a creative developer who has a great idea. New IP is a new experience. New mechanics is just how you play the game, purely creative and not dependant on the tech. New ways to play...new twist on existing genres. Sounds great to me....all those can be done on current gen. Things not possible before: Faster loading times for one, 4K 60 FPS standard. Accurate ray tracing. And there have been examples of games having features in next gen versions with past gen versions missing it due to limitations. See, you worry too much :) |
A new ip could be a new experience. But it's not a guaranty that they wont just rip off something else. Not that it could not happen with a new gen. And yes you could definitely deliver something new with the old hardware is just a matter of creativity and vision. But your reach can be hampered by hardware. Like I said before, the CPU will be the biggest obstacle with crosgen games. I have seen some tech demos of amd new physics engine that would set a jaguar on fire. I can't really give examples of things that don't exist yet or could even happen. That's kind of the excitement not knowing what could come next. More frames and pixels is not exciting at all. Ray tracing will be coming to consoles at last. But its been available for 2 years so we know what to expect.
You are right that I worry to much. I really should not put so much faith in this kind of things. But what can I say. I love video games. Even if I don't have that much time to play anymore.
It takes genuine talent to see greatness in yourself despite your absence of genuine talent.
