This. The video game industry I loved was the one that kept throwing innovation and technology at you, I remember when almost all AAA games had something new to offer. This was obliterated is Gen7, and doesn't seem to come back in Gen8. But since they've improved from "making everything worse" to "making things stay the same", the just might improve to "improve something" in Gen9.
