VR isn't for me, and while as I said plenty of games do look great on PS4/Xbone, my jaw never dropped in amazement like it did in prior generations.

I remember playing the nighttime rain level in Gears of War or being attacked by the helicopter across the rooftops in Nepal in Uncharted 2 and feeling like "holy shit, how can a video game look like this, it's like I'm playing something from the future."

Diminishing returns started to kick in for me with the current gen, where as good as it looked, the leap just didn't feel as big as past generational gaps. Looking at the games shown for PS5 and Xbox Series X so far, I'm getting that feeling once again. Still, it is early days.

Too stressfull i assume?

I just really don't like having a screen attached to my face. It feels invasive.

Don't get me wrong, it's not that there aren't games on PS4 and Xbone that look great, it's just that in previous generations there was always at least that one game that just left my jaw on the floor, be it Rogue Squadron II on the Gamecube, Gears of War on the 360, or Uncharted 2 on PS3.

Nothing quite approached that same level of "wow" for me in the current gen.

The UE5 demo kinda gave me that feeling, but that wasn't an actual game.

What games are you even playing , did you play Horizon, uncharted 4, the last gears PF war?

I don't have to have played the games myself to judge their graphics, I can clearly see what they look like from screens and footage online, or from watching others play in person. I did play some Uncharted 4 though, yes. Excellent looking game, definitely some of the best graphics of the current console generation, just didn't blow my socks off like Uncharted 2 did back in 2009.
