Control and Resident Evil 2 Remake still look incredible and run well on fairly inexpensive hardware today. We don't need globally illuminated Unreal Engine 5 games with individually modeled nostril hairs on each character that require graphics cards with prices in the three digit range

Graphics should just be kept at late PS4 level for the foreseeable future to keep games as accessible as possible

speak for yourself, i need to see individually rendered nostril hairs, and i want them to flow in the wind

Graphics get better, I enjoy games just the same. Just an excuse to sell new consoles.

I know this is anime style specifically but I just beat Persona 3 Reload, does it look better than P5? Yes, but not by much and honestly, I'm ok with all anime games looking like this, I'll take improvements in NPC models and more portraits and extra content over better graphics

I think it’s like the arms race. If everyone agreed and started making PS4 graphic level games, and then one developer made a new age graphics game, the others will think damn we need to make our games look better or people won’t buy our games, and so on. As consumers, if someone marketed a GTA6 game as having vice city graphics, and there was another similar game but with new age graphics, many would choose the new one. So from both sides, it’s a vicious circle.

Most of the games I play aren't designed to be photo realistic, so I wouldn't even consider them ps4 level graphics
