But conversely, this MMO is a lesson in that keeping your game chained down by outdated (or with the inevitability of becoming outdated) hardware isn't ideal either. It wasn't just because of a lack of graphical fidelity that the team constantly slagged the PS3 port. It fundamentally restricted a lot of what they could do in terms of improvements for the game at large because the PS3 could barely run the game once it hit Heavensward.
