Believe it or not, some people would just like to see games on their new $500 console that can't be done on the old hardware. If games can scale, then great, but wanting to see true next-gen games on your true next-gen console shouldn't be met with opposition. |
I honestly felt this way about cross gen games right when the PS5 launched.
But the more I think about it, and with how long game development has gotten, those true next gen leaps won't be happening in Year 3 or 4, yet alone in Year 1 or 2. As an example, I loved R&C: Rift Apart, and while it gave us a taste of what next gen can do, I feel like Insomniac could still take it to another level. Even last generation, some of the games I feel had that leap from the previous hardware, such as GoW, RDR2, TLOU2, didn't come until 2018 at the earliest.
