In a world where AAA developers pull the rug from under the consumer on release day with the visuals, I cannot believe the backlash FFXV has gotten from its first few reveals until today. Square even avoided the pitfall of recording their main trailers with maxed out PC footage. The uncovered trailers don't look anywhere close to as nice as the current build of the game. And they literally put together development reels during development, which of course, people used as ammo to assume the game was a trainwreck. They probably WONT ever do it again, and they probably shouldn't either, and that's a pity. Gamers love to say they want one thing and then prove that they're lying to themselves when its provided.
Also, they're clearly proud of the tech their using. And they should be, because it looks amazing. After FFXV i really hope they keep using and tweaking the technology used in XV for more and less ambitious projects.
