Hate to say this but Iamthiatam isnt wrong here. He originally replied to some guy who seems to think TLOU2 will be the base line for NEXT GEN consoles. thats ridiculous. Next gen games will look much much better than TLOU simply because of the massive jump in GPUs. You can look at some of the latest Unity and Unreal Engine demos to see how close we are coming to photorealistic environments. Megascans are going to make create photorealistic worlds extremely easy.
And then there is the massive CPU jump which will allow for destruction similar to what we saw in Control, only on a much larger scale. There will simulations for everything. Weather systems, civilians in NPCs, fully simulated day night cycles, friendly NPCs, huge leaps in enemy A.I, physics in ways we havent seen before. TLOU will look dated compared to next gen games simply because its not doing any of that.
I mean i get it. hes annoying and its very tempting to rip his arguments into shreds, but ignoring his subsequent posts on Uncharted's lack of interactivity, his original claim about TLOU2 not being the baseline for next gen games is not some crazy diatribe. Next gen is going to be a massive leap in both rendering and interactivity in ways we cant even imagine. Luckily we have some footage from next gen demos and flight simulator which is clearly next gen.
