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

    We got two chokepoints. I feel like graphics have not improved significantly for a little bit that is true. However one problem is way to much stuff can’t be re used. So, games will be made with thousands of hours of work done on assets. Then next game will use all new assets for thousands of hours more work. They really need to make some system by which we can keep adding to asset library’s instead of just having to make new stuff all the time.

    The second is we need way more processors cause when you see good ray tracing it really is a wild step up in quality but it is super resource intensive. So maybe when we get reasonable level biocumputing I dunno. However that will be for first time in a while I feel like graphics really jumped up in quality.
