evolution of different video game (ongoing) franchises graphics

GTA:

Observation:

GTA VI appears too be a leap over GTA V graphics and RDR 2 graphics.

Call of Duty:

Observation:

Games start too look too dated too enjoy from 2013 and before.

Final Fantasy:

Observation:

Games look fine from final fantasy VII remake and after

Resident Evil:

Observation:

Noticeable change 2021 onward.

Mortal Kombat:

MK One ( newest release ) is a noticeable graphical leap over the game right before it. In all the other franchises listed so far that does not appear too be the case.

Hideo Kojima games:

Observation:

2019 Death stranding stands out as having far better character graphics but Phantom Pain feels like it can still stand on its own without looking too dated.

Final observation:

Most of these game franchises have a cut off where things feel changed either around the 2013-15 mark or 2019-21 mark.

In theory any game franchise that only releases a game every five years would have a game that looks like a complete graphical upgrade over the previous game.

We can take the average time span for noticeable graphical improvements in games too be 5 years.

We can see a noticeable difference

Conclusion:

We will never see a gaming leap as big as the one between ps2 and ps3, but we will keep seeing noticeable differences in the quality of games every 5 years if you pay attention, and every 10 years if you are just passing by and taking a quick glance over.
