The Switch 2 is going to get a fuck ton more than just Final Fantasy 7 Remake. Write that down, take a picture of it, whatever. It will get a ton of PS5-XSX games for a variety of reasons more than the Switch 1 did and those ports likely will better relative than the Switch 1's versions did. "PS5 visuals" is just PS4 on steroids in most cases. These studios cannot afford to make games that look that much better because the budget would become obscene and the development time would become 7-10 years for some of these games. Even Sony's Spider-Man 2 ... it doesn't look that much better than Miles Morales on the PS4. If it did it would be launching in October 2025 and costing 40-50% more of their budget and that's just a stupid thing to ask for. And spare me the shit on trying to show this and that, I've seen it ... it's not a generational leap. Go look at a PS2 to PS3 a N64 to GameCube. That's a generational leap. Even Dreamcast from N64 was a massive leap compared to what we get now. And these graphics architectures are good, they're not a shit PS3 with a bizarre architecture that needed 3 years to be figured out, the modern AMD or Nvidia GPUs can be pushed to their max pretty much straight away, it's the budget and time issue that is the bottleneck reality. And you can downplay Steam Deck running modern games all you want but back in the day a PSP or DS wasn't running literal PS3 games at any settings at even 3 frames per second. No fucking way. Things are changing. Soon everything is going to be running all of these "modern" games. Phones, tablets, Switches, etc. etc. These engines scale a lot further these days in part because there's diminishing returns at the top of the food chain. There's only like 2-3 studios in the world that can afford a $200 million dollar game to push the upper end, and a game of that budget would likely also require a development time in the range of a decade, so basically just GTA6. On top of all that you have the XBox Series S lowering the floor entirely for whatever graphics leap this generation was supposed to be by a massive amount. The game industry is just not set up economically to handle budgets much higher than where they are now and development times are basically already at a point where many big ticket studios basically can only deliver one game per generation (cya in 2028 or 2029 for XBox Next Starfield/Elder Scrolls team). Movie budgets rose but people also paid double the price for movie tickets that they used to on top of double for popcorn and drinks. Gamers? Don't want to pay even $10 more for games as they were in the 90s/2000s. That's not gonna work. |
I stopped reading after the bolded part. You continue to fight arguments that were never made. And nobody cares. The switch 2 can get all the ports on the planet and I think that would be great.
At this point you aren't even trying, thus I'm not sure why I should even notice your existence.
