Would you be okay with graphics staying at PS4/XBO level if it meant cheaper games and shorter dev times?

Look at The Last of Us Remastered on PS4 and The Last of Us Part I, the remake on PS5. Absolutely massive difference.

Also Horizon Zero Dawn Remastered on PS5 is a pretty big difference.

PS4 games can and do look good, but there is definitely difference that's quite easy to notice.

A few games like The Last of Us Part II and Red Dead Redemption 2 do still look better than a good ammount of PS5 games, Uncharted 4 is also an older game that still looks incredible, but that's definitely not the average looking PS4 game.

When you go back from PS5 to PS4 you can easily notice it, I did when I finished Ghost of Yotei and went back to Ghost of Tsushima DLC and Legends, or when I started Death Stranding 2 right after finishing 1. It's immediatly noticable.

I always thought the gap was way bigger than people give it credit for.  I go back here and there to ps4 games, and they never look as good as I remember.  Demon remastered versus dark 3 is night/day. 

It has been like that since the PS4 came around.

The jumps were so big from PS1 to PS2 and from PS2 to PS3 that when the PS4 came around people started this "not so much better" thing, when the difference was still big and very easy to notice.

As time goes on it's definitely getting less noticeable, diminishing returns are real afterall, but that's only when you are only thinking about it, things always look better on our memories, specially things we liked, the value we give them mess up our own perception of it a bit.

When you are jumping between them, yeah, very easy to notice the differences.
