More capable hardware means more innovation and evolution in gaming.

And where is that on the PS4 Pro?
Also, if all the Pro games, are and will be compatible with the regular PS4, where is the need for better hardware after all?
Even another question. Take a PC with two GTX 1080 in SLI, and show me a game that takes that power and brings innovation and evolution. Just one.

Should be asking that about this gen, not the slightly better PS4P.
Also there is only one game at the moment that's going with high end hardware on the PC side and that's Star Citizen. Another one for the CPU side would be Ashes of a Singularity, which has insanely huge battles going on.
Also 1080 SLI, how about 1080ti SLI if we're going to go with current hardware?.
Really I think the industry is allowed to produce higher end hardware as there are most definitely people out there who buy into that side of the market. There is virtually no need or right to stop advancing hardware or trying to scale back everything for a select group of people.
Mankind, in its arrogance and self-delusion, must believe they are the mirrors to God in both their image and their power. If something shatters that mirror, then it must be totally destroyed.

Are you sure graphics did not play a role in a lot of the PS4 exclusives games people are looking forward to. I am going to hege a bet that people do not get excited just because a game is exclusive. Instead people get excited if a exclusive looks like the upcoming Spiderman or Horizon and its exclusive. |
Graphics always plays a role because that's how it grabs your attention for first impression. But Horizon, like many other amazing looking games, definite has a good first impression due to the graphics, but we all know that no matter good a game looks, if it plays like garbage then that's the final result. Everybody knows gameplay is the #1 factor in an amazing game, it just doesn't hurt/or even more impressive if it looked good too.
Looking at 2017 PS4 exclusive, graphics wasn't the defining factor.
- Yakuza 0, the game just looks like a more polished version of its previous but anybody that plays the series loves it
- Gravity Rush 2, looks like a polished Vita version or the same as the PS4 remaster
- Kingdom Hearts 2.8, just looks more polished than previous KH games.
- Horizon, probably the only PS4 exclusive this year so far that shows really amazing graphics, but anybody that's played it talks more about how fun it is than its graphics.
- Nier Automata, a typical looking hack n slash by Platinum Games that only looks better than Bayonetta 2 due to power difference in console
- Persona 5, the graphics aren't close to top notch, but the artwork and style and amazing.
Most of these games are more like 'expected graphics' because it's on a console that has that power but nothing that PS4 owners screams for demand of needing high end graphics. Or at least that's how I see it for myself.
As for Spiderman, I think people are just excited for a new spiderman game that's actually fun (gamplay wise, not graphics) because there hasn't been on in awhile. I know alot of people haven't played a good Spiderman game since PS1 or PS2?

Ofc there is, and I agree they should release it, what I don't agree is that people act like power is the only thing that matters.

Power isn't the only thing that matters though, but we shouldn't try to stifle it either. Those that think power is everything are few in number anwyay, so we should wish for things to regress either.

I describe myself as a little dose of toxic masculinity.

On the Pro games run better and have better frames so a game being 60fps but dropping to 45fps on regular PS4 vs a game being locked 60fps you overall get a better game experience because you won't be distracted by frame drops.
Thinking of replaying Chrono Cross on PS3

Deus Ex (2000) - a game that pushes the boundaries of what the video game medium is capable of to a degree unmatched to this very day.

I don't feel it's a very good time to assume what players want this year, as we're still steeped in Switch fever. It's been over ten years since Nintendo released a clearly defined home(ish) console, after all.
