Hardware is becoming less and less relevant in gaming

I guess it's kinda true. You can still get by with a 7-8 year old PC hardware nowadays which has never happened before.

But 90% of that is just because resolutions and refresh rates have ballooned so much in recent years. If games were still made to run at 1080p60 on the latest hardware then older hardware would also become obsolete much, much quicker. The 2080 Ti went from being a great GPU at 4k to being great at 1440p but is now just a great at 1080p.
 
High-end graphics cards get at best around 20 FPS more compared to base consoles.

50 years from now everything will probably be streamed directly.

I game only via gfn and to me the games look night and day better than the other options. I can't directly compare since I don't own a console but I don't even want to go back to a console.
