Why buy a new system at all then? It's not "silly" to expect new experiences with a new generation of consoles. Ragnarok runs just fine on the PS4; something like Rift Apart wouldn't, without compromising the experience significantly. Black Myth running like crap at a blurry resolution on PS4 should not be a priority for Game Science compared to giving PS5/PC owners the vision they intended. There is a point when it's time to move on. You can use whatever semantics you'd like but at the end of the day, games like Ratchet and Wukong, to me, are "true next-gen games." And it's getting much better for PS5 (and Series X), but we are also half way through the generation already. You're essentially expecting people to accept their new console as a Pro model rather than a new generation with whole new experiences. Cross-gen is expected to a point early on, but people shouldn't feel falsely entitled somehow just because they want their new games on their new console to reflect its new tech. |
If we were getting PS6 next year and moving ahead, then sure, cross gen games for a year or two would be more accepted.
Extending generations and adding a mid gen console to help with that, is all the more reason to move on to next gen, not milk both gens.
