Is the PS3(4?) holding back the game?

[Vahlnir]

They're not very open with what the PS3 actually limits the game on. Certain things can just be limited on the PS3 itself, but some things have to be limited on all systems because the PS3 wouldn't be able to handle it. I mean it's already capped out on memory.

Yeah, I know. I'm not denying that things had to be tuned down so it could work on the PS3, but I specifically mentioned the PS4. Like all technology there will be something better down the road, so in time even it will become obsolete. For the time being though it has the capability of working in sync with the PC version should the PS3 be taken out of the equation, though I'm sure they would still need to take into consideration that the PS4 is certainly no supercomputer. The PS4 could support an open world though similar to what was seen in 1.0, even as PCs continue to evolve. There will "hopefully" be a time when people are complaining about PS4 limitations, but that likely won't happen for a few years.
