All I'm saying is that they aim for 60fps from the outset, instead of getting halfway through before deciding.

It doesn't matter when you decide it. No matter what you choose you will make compromises during development. Fact is due to the 60fps goal they have to drop features. Don't you think they tried using AA in MK8? They tried and then dropped it for their noble goal.

It does matter cos there's a difference between a game that was designed from the ground up as a 60fps title and one where the original vision was downgraded halfway through to accomodate 60fps. The latter will be compromised, the former won't.
