Adam looks great but it's more a Unity showcase then a graphics showcase. Games with essentially that quality are already being made.

Crazy how quickly Unity has become a graphics powerhouse though. They've made a lot of money and are trying to break into the near monopoly Unreal has with big studios.

They call it the bare minimum for next gen. If they were super impressed, they'd be hoping next gen games eventually looked that good

I really think the big visual things will come from ray marching/ray tracing.

Reflections and lighting are just so much better with rays and performance wise they're just starting to find themselves used in games. Personally I prefer ray marching over ray tracing but all the big places with money are focusing on the later
