I don't know where to even begin with this post, but it seems you created a lot of subtext to my post that wasn't intended nor present in anything I said. Someone said the character models looked good, I pointed out that they are actually substandard from the norm. Regardless of whether they'll be improved in the future is irrelevant to the discussion.
No, you didn't. You took a single picture of Shulk's face that wasn't even in game footage(probably wasn't even being rendered on Wii U hardware), as opposed to using an actual in game character model which, by all standards looks far above the norm for a last gen game, to make an inaccurate state about the entirety of every character in the the game with absolutely nothing else backing it.
I called it out because it was simply ludicrous. If you had actually used an in game character model as opposed to a single off screen shot of Shulk's face(that actually looks like the same one from Xenoblade on the Wii only with a higher res texture) or more than one image, then that would have been different.
Really if you didn't enter the discussion with so much outrage and a template response you would've noticed your mistake. And claiming that I chose "The worst possible image" in the case at hand is absurd, you realize that right?
What outrage? I simply called your statement how I saw it and I see that type of thing often as I said at the end of my post. Any feelings I had were far on the opposite end of rage. Try dissapointed for more accuracy. I'm disappointed at seeing these exact same unsubstantiated, cherry picked, narrow sighted arguments that are always done in the exact same way towards the exact same, often fallacious, ends popping up so often.
I'm not here for console war rubbish. I came here for the analysis. Whether or not you speak positive or negative about the hardware, the company or employees as its relates to the GPU is inconsequential to me. What I am interested in is sound logic and/or substantiated fact, as well as other materials and examples to back such statements. I rarely ever see such things, though, because most people come with a short sighted agenda that approaching with an open mind would only work to refute.
Its fine if you don't like Nintendo or the Wii U. That is not my business, but if you are going to make a such a grand generalization with nothing much backing it then I am going to call you on it.
It would be like me taking a shot of a low res textures from COD or Metal Gear Solid 4 and saying that all of the textures are lower res or that the that's all the PS3 can do and that is not that much better from last gen consoles of its time.
Oh, look at how low res these textures are. Metal Gear Solid 4 is clearly not that huge of a step up from normal PS2 games.
Wow, look at all of those low res textures, all of that sparse, flat grass and all that fog in Uncharted. The PS3 clearly can't do that much more than the Xbox1. Its only a small step up from the gen before it.
Those are terrible, overgeneralized arguments. Even then, its still better than the one with Shulk's face as I'm at least using normal in game footage.
