Sure, graphics truly were awesome to behold end '90 to say 2010, my gawd the leaps that were made.

Now? It's like they are still so trapped in that 20 year old mindset, expecting the same thing, to become better every generation, they neglect the cost for marginal progress, they still hype, still blinded by that marketing speak of publisher, developers and their own bubble, thinking it actually still matters, and still is making meaningful progress.
It hardly is.
3D environments? We finished that game son.

At some point, you'll look though it. Graphics become LESS immersive, the more real they become. We're all fooling ourselves. Hyping ourselves, making ourselved believe it.
We crazy like that.
