I get the feeling NVidia is trying to justify buying a new video card when graphics haven't really progressed much in the last 10 years by adding new crap to old games. See also Quake 2 RTX.

I am fine with that.

This is also fine.

Honestly the backlog of games I would like to play is so long that a graphical update for some games would probably be too much for my current setup.

I've seen a lot of RTX comparison videos, and none have ever wowed me. Usually there is little to no perceptible difference to me, and when there is, it usually just looks like someone turned up the brightness or contrast on the screen.

With the Gen 7 consoles in the mid 2000s, I think the diminishing returns of graphics card power vs actual graphical output was beginning to become clear. Games that released 10 to 15 years ago don't really look significantly worse than games in the last 5 years. Nintendo Wii games are an exception for obvious reasons, of course.

Graphics don't "wow" me anymore. If companies are focusing on technical advancements, I'm more concerned with consistent frame rates, fast loading times, and quick accessibility. Hibernation mode on consoles was the most underappreciated feature of the Gen 8 consoles.

Morrowind was my first real sandbox adventure. One day I would like to do justicr with great battle against Almalexia in 9th or 10th gen graphics.

I think the Cyberpunk comparisons are really good. There's a massive difference between RTX and no RTX. The light and shadow quality and reflections and refraction are so much better with RTX.
