Yes they would pretty much look the same.Because you think if Games were made only for Xbox One X or even PS4 Pro they will look the same?
There not held back by the base consoles there held back primarily by there CPU's, that's the ball and chain.
But they was designed for specific tasks and fulfills it well.
Early cross gen games graphically won't be held back much either.
Where they would be held back is in scope, complexity, AI, physics, gameplay, etc.
So will cross gen games be held back, yes.
Will cross gen games be held back hugely graphically no, not at the start, not with how flexible most engines are.
Don't think they should be mandated to make cross gen games though. Wonder if Windows central heard there was a mandate, or it just happens that most are. Which wouldn't surprise me.
