Greater the graphics longer the development time and more expensive the project thus less risks taken. Focus on graphics is something that's actively destroying the game industry. Compare the amount and variety of PS3 exclusives to PS5 exclusives. PS3 had over 181 exclusives. PS5 has 5 or 6? And half of them are movie games and ports!
The only major game company that releases games anymore (even if they're of poor quality) is Nintendo. Why does Nintendo release games at greater rates than their competitors? Because the switch is weak. I guarantee if switch was as powerful as PS5 you'd never see games. It looks like switch 2 is already struggling with long development times https://www.nintendolife.com/news/2...reholder Q&A,and make "necessary investments".
The sad truth is companies are right to focus on graphics over gameplay. Games with long development times, mediocre gameplay and great graphics always sell at greater quantities. Look at any rockstar game or the recent monkey game souls clone.
