The obsession gamers have with "good graphics" is at a point where we're seeing diminishing returns. Do games need to look any better than they did in the PS3/360 Era? Not really. Can they look much better? I guess? But who cares? I don't need realistic horse testicle physics. I need a fun game to play!!!

What surprises me is how many developers haven't realised that you can have a game that looks good without it being insane from a technical viewpoint, a solid art style does much more for a game than graphical fidelity. That being said, more graphics isn't a bad thing as long as it's not the only thing.
