Damn, nobody in here is excited for the future of graphics? Guess I'll be the outlier.
I'm looking forward to ray tracing being commonly available. Having actual reflections in game really improves that subconscious immersion and even could open up strategy in some cases. Imagine using a mirror the see someone coming around the corner.
Every time I walk into a bathroom and the mirror is just some generic gray texture it pulls me out.
Realistic lighting, textures, and character models are also pretty great. I want to see the pores on the protagonist's face.
That said, obviously the game needs to be fun more than have good graphics, but man do I love the immersion of high quality visuals.
According too the article, you’re a vocal gamer in your 40’s or 50’s.
Or someone with disposable income.
