Do graphics even matter?

[Scustin Bieburr]

The difference boils down to the art department.

Games like half life 2, wind waker, Spiderman miles morales, or halo 3 all aged pretty well because the developers had the time they needed to cook and the artists covered up technical limitations.

Now games look like blurry shyt unless you have upscaling and dynamic resolution. Developers use ray tracing to save time so depending on the game, it can make a huge difference to reflections when turned on but then your performance takes a hit.

Cats in here lying to themselves talking about graphics don't matter cause they stuck with that 1070ti and that 60hz 1080p monitor

Lol, but for real though. Take Breath of the Wild or Tears of the Kingdom. Not the most graphically intensive games but I don't think they are beautiful and have a distinct design philosophy behind the games. Sightlines that can emphasize the draw distance of the engine.

Every game can't be as beautiful as a vanillaware game typically is. There is a difference between immersion and realism and sometimes, developers mistake the latter one for the former choice.

And people are about to pay extra to play totk and BOTW with better resolution and frames.
