    Eh, I think we’re about to hit complete photorealism on those things without it mattering at all anyway

    What we really need is easier access to assets.

      Photogrametry has pretty much secured photorealistic baked-in effects without any additional computational power. Just by using real photos (especially 3D scan photos) you cut out mapping, toning, and forming (all together a 1hr+ process) all in one step. That, coupled with modern engine lighting and an eye for what makes things “real” and you get that one bodycam footage game that everyone was jaw-dropped about.
