The gaming executives don't know (because they never knew) we were all fucking raised on flash games.

Seriously. My kid and his cohort are far more into bizarre broken looking shovelware ass games that are funny than any serious hyper real stuff.
There is nothing novel to any child born in the last 15 years, in a game looking realistic. A game looking interesting is going to have much more currency in the future than anything to do with the eternally chased engine features bent toward realism of the here and now

The problem with "The Kids" is those little fuckers don't know how to emulate! The ones that do just play anything like they don't give a fuck they grew up on minecraft and roblox
