I think PS5 and its same gen xbox equivilant are at a point where they aren't even utilising the power of the newer consoles anymore. If a game is possible to release on Nintendo Switch, AND PS5, that's insane. The Switch is essentially a tablet from 2012. It was intentionally underpowered even at time of release.

Look at NES games from 1985. Now look at NES games from 1993. Same system. But they began utilising the system properly. They began pushing the system to the max.

I feel like modern consoles are holding back to accomodate the previous gen. This game is coming out for PS5 AND PS4 because nobody is buying PS5. So you gotta release it for PS4. So why even release a PS5 if you're not going to advance it?
