I mean 60fps gaming at not sub 1080p resolutions on a Pro would be nice (see latest Final Fantasy for example) and just being able to get performance mode frame rates with quality mode graphics in games would be cool.

I think there is value in both a slim and Pro model.

I would be happy if there was no pro version for that generation.

It used to be that consoles were a stable hardware for an entire generation and optimization was the difference between a good developer and a bad one.

If you wanted to have more performance every 3 years, then PC was the way to go.

So I really hope that they just tested water with the ps4 pro and that they don’t reproduce the experiment again.

So you don't want them to make a Pro console because FOMO?

The base PS4 still worked great even well into the PS5 generation with games like Ragnarok. Neither the PS4 Pro or PS5 made that a poor experience. Devs don't even want to leave base PS4 players behind almost 3 years into this gen, base PS5 owners will be fine and remain the vast majority of users. If you don't want to upgrade, just don't.

And it's not like you have to buy new/additional hardware to play some games like in the past as all games would support the PS5. Unlike the Genesis which had Sega CD and 32X. GameBoy had GameBoy Color only games. N64 had expansion pak required games. DS had the DSiWare and 3DS had New 3DS only/enhanced games. The 360 started to require the HDD late in life for some games.

I just think that developers are allocating resources to have features for these pro consoles. I’d prefer if they just optimized the experience for everyone.

But you’re right about one thing, I’ve kept playing on the base ps4 until the end of the generation and I’ve been able to enjoy a lot of games.
