I also feel like we don’t need to have more beautiful games than Last of Us 2

Remember when FarCry was released, and people were compairing the ingame screenshots with real photos? We all thought "Man, this is it. It can't get any better than this".

Well I’m not against games becoming more impressive visually per se, but against the fact that because of this games are becoming way more expensive to produce and companies are now risk averse.

But yeah I might have said « this is it » in front of quite a few games 😅

I remember feeling this way about the cut scenes in Dante's Inferno on Xb360.

I certainly did that with Gran Turismo 6 on the PS3
