Graphics Update Discussion

[Gemina]

I'm not sure how excited to be because I'll still be playing on PS4 come 7.0 and I am not sure if it will support the graphics update, and it's also difficult to justify the purchase of new hardware when I don't play much games outside XIV and the few I have for my Switch. However, I have thought about getting a PS5 for the short load in times alone. Load in times on PS4 are atrociously slow.

If you feel comfortable doing it I imagine you could upgrade the PS4 SSD for a few extra seconds, just googled it for the first link but it seems fair: https://www.pcmag.com/how-to/upgrade...%20your%20SSD.

Fraction of the cost, though if you know you will get value out of the PS5 may as well.

Thanks! This is very helpful and I will definitely keep it in mind.

I will say, when I upgraded to PS5, the UI switch alone on the PS5 from the PS4 is night and day. It's sooooo smooth and fast and beautiful, I was literally like "How they heck did I play on this potato of a console this long?!?" It's definitely worth the upgrade, especially since they revamped it and it's smaller now too and doesn't take up as much room You also have a lot of time to upgrade if you choose to since 7.0 doesn't come out till I think June of next year.
