Why?
I think he answered the question with the preceding sentence.
As for the logic behind it, there is none. But that doesn't stop it being a valid concern
Anyway, getting off topic..
Why?
Graphics will never carry a multiplayer shooter on their own.Please go get your eyes checked. Titanfall has worse graphics than Watch Dog and the game looks like a 360 game. Poor textures, geometry, AA, framerate and resolution are some of the issues that plague this game. We haven't even mentioned the screen tearing yet. On PC, titanfall looks good but it still looks last gen. Bf3 looks better and so do games like crysis 2 and metro last light.
Funny. I said the exact same thing today to a friend.
I enjoy the gameplay even though it's incredibly easy to the point where I don't know how long it will last FOR ME, but I'm not so in love with this game to the point where I defend the graphics like I personally worked on it. If people think this looks good, then I'm pretty sure no other game should disappoint them in the future graphically. Of course, some of those people will probably be criticizing other game's graphics if they're not interested in its gameplay...lol
It's a fun MP game. Nothing revolutionary on any front and is just easy fun. A lot of gamers like easy shooters so I get its popularity, but I always wondered what's so game-changing in Titanfall to the point where this game was hyped to basically be the best shooter of all time. That was basically guaranteeing some backlash at launch since people had such high hopes.
The gameplay is fun, but the graphics are definitely disappointing to me considering what else is out there and hitting 60FPS now. I'm really curious how the game looks on 360 though since that two week delay reminds me of the old PC game delay move. I don't doubt it was delayed just to hopefully sell more X1's. I'm just happy it's out on PC.
8/10 seems about right to me on PC only taking gameplay into account.

Also, I think for many people they want to point to this as game-changing since it's an exclusive to Microsoft consoles.
Whaaat!? It seems you have an agenda here. Man who gives a shit. Why do you keep bringing up xb1!?
no he didn't.

Whaaat!? It seems you have an agenda here. Man who gives a shit about that!? Are people really still about that console war life these days?
That shit is beyond corny
Agree, really defending hard about graphics and just ignoring the fact that the game is just fun. Its not an exclusivity thing. If Second Son is good it will get good scores. Just have some fun playing games.
This thread is so 180 from the Dark Souls 2 reviews thread![]()
Can't wait for Polygon to drop their score to a 4 one week after launch
I'm with you on this. Reviews should change as the game does for better or for worse. Reviews main purpose are to inform prospective buyers if your review is outdated you're actively doing your readers a disservice. Its one of the few things Polygon does right.So when a website stands by their reviewer's score, we give them shit. When a website is progressive enough to update their scores based on new info, new experiences, technical issues, new updates...we get this?
Awesome, GAF.

I'm wondering where the heck those 50 gigs of space are going because they certainly aren't going to the texture resolution.
Good reviews. Not great though. I wonder in Second Son will take March on metacritic.
This is lower than expected. I was expecting 90+ given the amount of positive press it got from previewers...
I don't know if its "wrong" to bring this up in the discussion, but our good friend famousmortimer on twitter says stable framerate is coming in a patch, along with an up-rez to the "900p range"...
it's as if general audiences don't give a shitCan't believe that there wasn't a tongue in cheek score of 792/1080 from at least one of the reviews.
This thread demonstrates to me how little things have changed
The last of us was universally praised as GOTY last year, games like uncharted and litylebigplanet got much praise
Yet people are still complaining about "bias" against Sony. People have still covinced themselves knack and killzone are misunderstood classics (when no-one would give them a second look on any other platform)
(Shrug) game looks great to me and the gameplay is awesome. Feels next gen to me. So thats just what I think.
Im not getting any tearing on pc.
I dont know why yall keep bringing up xb1 as i could give 2 shits about xb1. Only next gen console i own is a ps4
If the beta were released as a 60 dollar game, it would deserve 90 or so. Even if the rest of the unlocks and perks made it a worse game, just adding a bunch more maps would keep it at 92 minimum. If the rest of the unlocks are on par with the beta, and well balanced, it deserves a 98. If the extra content is even better than this, then it is 104 or so, which I suppose people would clip to just plain 100. But I think it's important to note that what Respawn has achieved here is likely beyond perfection. It's like when Zefram Cochrane invented the warp drive, rendering the speed of light obsolete.

Because games change, and most are treated as services now that improve over time because Minecraft blew the doors open for the rest of the industry.Why not, you know, just not give out a score in the first place if you're likely to change your mind?
Giving the likes of BF4 a high score because the online was perfect at a launch event is BS if it then means people buy it in it's broken-ass state. Changing the score later means fuck all to people who bought it because of the original score.
Pretty much. The marketing for Titanfall is just godly insane.
Add to that, Second Son is a Sony exclusive for a next gen platform. I'm expecting a lot of reviewers to trash it.
That would be hilarious and clever to about 84 people, worldwide.
Please go get your eyes checked. Titanfall has worse graphics than Watch Dog and the game looks like a 360 game.
So they'll trash it because it's a Sony exclusive?
I...hmmmm... *give up*
lmaoWhaaat!? It seems you have an agenda here. Man who gives a shit about that!? Are people really still bout dat console war life these days?

Luckily my brother picked this up on Xbox One. I'm going to head over tomorrow to check it out, and if I like it I'll grab it on PC.
I'm hoping the next game uses Frostbite, and has bigger maps.
They trash it because Sony doesn't bribe them.
Don't act like it doesn't happen. Microsoft have been caught out numerous times already this gen doing it.

People who bought it because of the original score shouldn't give a fuck all about the changed score, which reflects an updated/changed product and now serves whoever is looking at the score at that period in time. If you bought the original product and used an evaluation of the original product to aid your purchase, I'm not sure what you have to complain about. Your not buying the same product if it changes, and evaluations of the product should appropriately reflect the current state of affairs. Baffling how hard this is to understand.

Just look at the complete lack of flak Xbone games receive for worst frame rates, half the resolution, long load times etc. Go back and look how they treated PS3 games missing a couple lines of resolution.
It's sick how little integrity journalists have had this generation. Anticipating a total shredding of a Sony exclusive is not a stretch.

Examples?
Need examples. The possibility seems unlikely but not impossible.

You guys.
The Metacritic user reviews are the goldest of gold.
