TBH with SOTTR I really don't care. IMO the visuals did absolutely nothing for the sequel and I still think the original was the better game.
It's all on how well the game has been coded, IMO. At least with the slowdown in GPU tech devs are being forced to think on their feet, instead of just going out and buying four Titans and then using those to make their game. That is the one thing I have never liked about the GPU race, it stunts dev IMO. What I mean is look at how amazing a game looks on a console at the end of its lifespan compared to the beginning. I wish we could see the same sort of thing in PC gaming. But we haven't because it just hasn't sat still in years.
