Nah the 2080 was pretty good too
No it wasn't (better than the 1080 relatively compared)
I would say it went downhill when the 80 cards started looking like 70 cards (around the 40 series). At least the 20 series was a 20% boost.
not even comparable...
I had the 1080... and didn't need to upgrade until the 50 serives was released . handled everything at max, and probably still does.
And I still got a 2080 doing the same shit what's your point?
that they were not comparable, and the 1080 was a better all around card. cost wise, and performance wise.

The 1080 was on the market longer and was cheaper, the 2080 was 20% better on all metrics on average. I think you're throwing a fair amount of bias in there due to your experience with the card.
Yes but when you compare the difference between 980-1080 and 1080-2080 its night a day https://gpu.userbenchmark.com/Compare/Nvidia-GTX-980-vs-Nvidia-GTX-1080/2576vs3603
