2d jrpg where way better then what where getting right now.
It seems you Don't understand what makes a game great.
Horizon looks amazing now,but in 6 years its graphics will be forgotten, we still remember ff6,7,8.9 and the older games.
Graphics evolution is a great thing but games nowadays try to push graphics more then gameplay, story,fun factor, solid framerate and a well made product.

Except that Horizon has fucking amazing gameplay as well as amazing graphics. The Order: 1886 would have been a better example to use there because that one was mostly all graphics and not much else. Horizon is the full package.
Signature goes here!
Less power would make for better games.
Take away all the luxury and see which great minds, and with it ideas, come to the surface.
Automatically? No.
But i've seen plenty of games that don't push the graphics envelope in any way be mediocre trash. Some of my most favorite games had good or the best graphics for their times.
I think it just depends on the game. A good game idea poorly executed would probably still be a bad game even if the developers had put less resources into graphics.

I think that the point I was attempting to make was that, "system power" keeps getting shoved down our throats like it is the thing that we want. Sure, power "can allow" but the way some people view it, it's 4k and 120fps or nothing. No mention of whether the game is any good or not, just how good it looks *cough* Crysis *cough*... |
The original Crysis was actually a great game, it also held nothing back in terms of graphics as it didn't have to pander to inferior performing hardware... And it ranked at a 91 on Metacritic which isn't a drop in the bucket.

The thing with Final Fantasy 7, 8 and 9 is that they actually looked amazing when they were released.
