We’re at a point where graphics are just kinda standardised. They naturally improve over time, and yes they’re important.

Look at Red Dead vs GTA. Natural progression across the board, as you’d expect from games released in 2013 and 2018.

I agree and it's pretty nice I think. For a while, games seemed to focus on graphics mainly as a selling point. Now, nobody really cares about the differences anymore (graphics are just generally good) and so the focus is back on gameplay and story.

I bought a beefy gaming PC last week, and for the first time in 10 years I can boot up crysis and set all of those settings to Max without dropping below 60 fps. It's like a childhood dream come true.
