Microsoft seems to be forcing developers to downgrade the ps4 visuals to match xbox one games through parity clause.

Give us *one* example. Just one. And don't post stuff like "common knowledge" - we are many people here with "common knowledge" and don't see what you are going to use for your "common knowledge" and "logic". You are just evading the discussion with this nonsense.

If you read the thread then you would see many examples where given. BUt the only proof that you are willing to accept is that the devs or phil spencers comes out and says "yes its true, MS is paying us to keep parity" wich will never happen and you can live in denial saying your right.

you really think there wouldn't be a disgruntled developer somewhere that would come out and say what microsoft's policy is here?  Trust me, if Microsoft was forcing graphical parity, you would have heard about it.  That isn't a policy that would sit well with a lot of people, and would quickly become public information.  Whether through insider leaks, disgruntled developers, or annonymous tipsters, that iformation would have come out.  

All the examples people have given are just conspiracy theories derived from online forum dwellers.  Nothing has been confirmed or even talked about by actual gaming press because there isn't anything to talk about.  It is just conspiracy theories...

So the interviews with the devs saying themselfs that they are aiming for parity(not the first time, destiny said it to, not sure who else) is all in our heads. It might be the choice of the devs to do that for the cash, or they could have goten paid we dont really know the reason beacuse like i said before, no one is going to go rant about it to the media because they will probably loose what ever benefict they are guetting. 

What is not a theory is that when someone says that they are aiming for parity means that one version out perfoms the other and they are working hard to come to a middle ground. Even if that means that its not gimping the ps4 and just working really hard on x1, then all that effort could also go to ps4 and really put that game on another level. With the comon knowledge the the ps4 is 50% stronger then if detiny can be 1080p30hz on x1 then it can be no problem to get it to 60hz on ps4 but the interview said by the devs themself, no because we are aiming for parity.

Like I said, your type is unwilling to accept any evidence short of being a direct response from the heads that say yea we paid them. JUst to be clear again, I never said its whats hapening for certain, just that it is a posibility and you cannot dismiss everithing.
