(Before you bring that console war shit here. I'm talking across platforms, not on consoles alone)
There's been a lot of talk about how stagnant the industry has been in terms of innovation of mechanics, gameplay, etc. (My personal belief is that the focus has been on graphical fidelity for far too long, but that's beside the point)
The point being is the next wave of games are looking to be mostly similar to the titles we already have. Simy scaled up and sprinkled with effects.
Vr was a pipe dream, then it became an unpolished trifle, then an decent but expensive niche. With the release of Alyx, VR has become the one of the most awe-inspiring and polished experiences in gaming.
That next gen feel that seems to be missing from the reveals and trailers is in VR.
Note: I'm not saying these VR titles will automatically be more fun or better than traditional flatscreen games. The majority of them are still niche pleasures. But if there's anything exciting about a "next generation", it isn't another br with a name generator title.
(No offense Ubi, I like your shit, please don't delay Watch dogs: Legion, okay, thanks)
