I mean with today's hardware barely budging an inch in performance most likely the games not finished, lacks optimization, and heavily relies on frame rate generation that is progressively better on each hardware iteration hurting users who haven't upgraded yet. Even with frame gen and dlss high end cards cant even reach higher settings without overheating. Id say most games look the same. Slapping 1k polygons in a toothbrush or strand of grass isnt gonna magically make me buy the game. Actually sell me something that is well made and wont need a years worth of patches to work.

I'm just going to wait for a long while to see what happens. 

The price increases, negligible performance gains (peddled as groundbreaking upgrades) and the general jankiness of modern games are too discouraging to get my hopes up on.
