No doubt this topic will be closed very quickly, but... Who else thought that the trailer/commercial for the new game Destiny looked like it was going to be Fallout 4?? I was going bonkers the whole time until the name at the end.

Also, if THAT is what next gen console games are going to look like, I am thoroughly excited for them.

Graphics. The most useless of all RPG mechanics, yet seemingly the only one people care about any longer. Sigh.

Did I say that graphics were all I cared about? I only said that I'm excited that the games are actually going to look REALLY good for a change.

In other words... graphics...

Yeah, it's a good looking trailer but trailers do not matter and I don't know why they are still made.

Movies have trailers, TV shows have pilots, and videogames have demos. They're all supposed to give you a taste of what to expect. Sadly most developers and publishers don't understand that.

Uhh that trailer was full blown CGI. So I wouldn't get your hopes up. I'm hoping the new consoles means less "hurr durr graphics" and more "less engine limitations". I want updated physics and environment, as well as new ideas for game mechanics. Not shiny bloom effects and textures.

Needs more dust physics.

Graphics have been good enough for quite a while. Lets get back to gameplay.

QFT.

Jack Bauer 24, if you think graphics are good enough as they are now, why are you constantly complaining about the Xbox One's hardware?

That said, I do agree, but the things you say just don't make sense sometimes.

I know where you're coming from with this, but I still don't like how people tend to polarize the issue with silly statements like this. How could graphics possibly be the "most useless" part of RPGs?
