Games don't look better than they did by the end of last gen, yet they take 10 times resources.
We reached graphical peak long ago.

modern graphics just look shitty in general. visual clarity is very low. almost every game has that ugly whitish filter over everything and its like vaseline is smeared over the screen. the visual language of games has become almost unreadable

We haven't reached graphical peak at all, we're long past talented developer peak which is the real problem. Graphical peak won't be reached by outsourced indian development and ai shortcuts

in the thumbnail I thought that the statue was a giant tribute to self oppression. which seemed somewhat fitting for the devs if they had any shreds of self awareness left.

The peak of what can be reasonably achieved was reached over 20 years ago.
The kind of coordination needed to make a genuinely good looking game can only be achieved with in-house artists and with a studio/publisher that is small enough to avoid falling to office politics and other in-fighting.
Developers aren't necessarily the problem, it's that the system tacitly encourages increasingly bad and corrupt management through copyright.

yes, but the development cost and time have gone down because you don't need to optimize anymo...
Wait a minute...

You thought pic related was a silly joke? Think again.

For a second I thought of this when I saw the thumbnail.
