Graphical Fidelity I Expect This Gen

Just shows how poor this generation has been. KCD2 could probably run on PS4/Xbox One in some capacity, it doesn't look a world away from the first.
We will know how deep rabbit hole goes once switch2 launches and ports of "current gen only" games will start to show up on it, hell we know for example Jedi Survivor got last gen port(runs relatively poorly tho) so very few games that are "current gen" wouldnt be able to be downscaled/ported down to last gen machines, another good indicator is- if it can be downscaled enough to run relatively okish on steamdeck, if yes then u know lastgen port was easily doable too.

Ac shadows having a rumored sw2 version tells you all you need to know about how nextgen it is.

Fucking nonsense considering kc2 just came out and runs well.

You could say state of modern Japanese gaming but even ff7 rebirth runs well on PC.

I think it’s just an re engine issue. And that too with open world games. Nothing more.
I just agree with his general point about the state of gaming and calling out the graphics in particular (the part I agree with) and comparing it to PS3/PS4 graphics. Aint that what we been saying this whole time? I'm just glad he called them out, we need more of this about graphics especially from people like him!
 
Ha! I remember MLiD saying you’d be fine with a 3060 for the rest of the generation before it was announced. Not the card’s fault but modern gaming shittyness but still…
It's the RE engine. It is absolute shit at processing open worlds. Dragon's Dogma 2 runs terribly too. Capcom needs to abandon that game engine, at least when it comes to their open world games. Janky as all hell

Much text in this thread so I thought I'd add some images of what I'm hoping for:

Next Zelda going bananas with great cel-shading on the Switch 2. Either by going this classic route with film grain:

(Even put a hat on the rat)
Or clean, but still with 2D animation style:
