    I’d easily argue that the average AAA game from a decade ago looks just as good on a 1080/1440p display as the average AAA game today - and I’d still bet the difference wouldn’t be that noticeable for 4K either.

    If you just count pixels, yes. But what really made a big step forward in this decade was the realistic animation. And it does require a lot of effort and time to make it right.

      Honestly I’d still argue there’s diminishing returns on this front as well.
      I play plenty of older titles, and I wouldn’t say I notice that much of a difference - though that is my very subjective opinion
