    I very, very happily played on the PS3 since 2.0's launch. I still like a lot of aspects of it. Until recently, I never really considered how differently things render between the systems. I played briefly on a laptop and didn't notice anything until I'd wandered into my house.

    I was very used to seeing this:


    But then I saw this on a PS4 render:


    I was startled by the difference. I then started to consider what else was different. Other than the superfluous "boob jiggle", what else was drastically improved over the PS3?

    * The Slime King Crown doesn't "wiggle" on the PS3, it stands stationary on your head.
    * The S-Rank mobs, as well as Odin and Behemoth still don't render very quickly. (Even with all of the workarounds.)
    * Clothing doesn't "swish" the same way between the systems. (I had never seen the Spring Skirt swish before!)
    * The load times into instances and between teleports was much, much faster.

    I know that these are silly little things to compare, but they made a large enough difference to me personally that it really changed how I viewed the PS3 and its limitations.

    Edit:
    Looking between these now... I was initially focused solely on the snowflake outlines, but I failed to notice how much more texture EVERYTHING had now...

    All right, I admit that I like being able to see that leather gives more boob support than cloth, and heavy armor gives the best chest protection.
