Control and Resident Evil 2 Remake still look incredible and run well on fairly inexpensive hardware today. We don’t need globally illuminated Unreal Engine 5 games with individually modeled nostril hairs on each character that require graphics cards with prices in the three digit range

Graphics should just be kept at late PS4 level for the foreseeable future to keep games as accessible as possible

    Half Life 2 certainly extended, if it didn’t start, the trend of “high fidelity urban and rural ruins.” So much graphical potential wasted on mostly ugly boring environments.

        It really nailed the intended atmosphere though.

        I suppose it did, and that intention wasn’t to my liking so I suppose that’s why I never really got into it much.
