I'm primarily a PC gamer but I do have a PS4 and always get consoles for exclusives. One thing that has really changed the landscape for me though is HDR and 4K.
I just recently wrapped up the Last of Us Part II and the HDR did wonders for that game. It really set an atmosphere and tone where I couldn't imagine not playing it without it. It added to much to the experience where it puts me in a conundrum -especially with the upcoming PS5.
A game like Resident Evil 2, I played on PC. The high frame rate and extra settings made it look fantastic but would have HDR elevated it that much more? With the PS5, I would hope that we'd get more 60fps games so 4K + HDR + 60fps is really going to temp me to go with the console version at least for certain games.
I guess the answer is to simply get a HDR monitor but it seems like that space is limited and the technology is not as good as on TVs currently, not to mention the insane prices. Is anyone in a similar mindset and love HDR? I'm hoping HDR will become more prevelant on PC and we get some good monitor choices soon. It's going to be a real struggle in deciding between high frame rate vs. HDR/4K for console going forward.
