Hellblade did look amazing but we both know that was wasn't gameplay footage. All we have for a fact are the strategies of both companies going into next gen. Sony wants to move away from ps4 asap and focus on selling their next gen consoles. MS wants to hang on to their current gen install base and sell services across a bunch of different devices.
This simply means Sony can potentially take full advantage of the ps5's next gen features, while MS has to cater to a broader audience and keep in mind that most of them don't have NVME SSD's and $700 gpu's. People all love BC and Smart Delivery because they haven't really seen next gen games yet. Once we'll see them on Sony's platform, BC and Smart delivery are still gonna be great, but not so much if you're planning to buy a Series X and it comes at the expense of not getting any exclusives for it.
Again, try to look at the big picture here. GP is a great service right now because every pc gamer can easily run 99% of the games on there. Now what do you think will happen if they start putting their big exclusives on there and hardly anyone has a pc that can play them? GP users would still be forced to upgrade and it would defeat the whole purpose of their strategy. That's why they wont do it until we see RTX2070 Super or better gpu's and fast SSD's become main stream. Until then 1st party developers can only "waste" those 12Tflops on bumping the resolution/ framerate and maybe adding some ray tracing effects. That's the main reason why MS's first look at Series X games got the reactions it did and not so much the games themselves.
