This whole fixation with games being "held back by the hardware" is silly, because hardware could always be stronger. It's an endless treadmill.
Every game ever made is "held back by the hardware." PS5 games are held back by not being saved for the PS6, PS6 games are held back by not being on PS7, every console game is held back by not being developed exclusively for high end PCs, and so on and so forth.
The overwhelming focus on moar powah, of always craving more and prettier pixels, at what point does it become an unhelpful mindset, of letting the finer points of technology dictate our enjoyment of our hobby?
