Xenoblade Chronicles X could have gotten a downgrade

I doubt you'd find many people who would pick the left side were they asked which looked more graphically impressive (top for ranged geometry, bottom for local. If you have better pics for either feel free to send them to me and i'll edit it).

Opinionated, still debatable. I think XCX stands as more highly artistic. It's really not a say between hardware limitations. 

That's why i started my original post with "i assume you mean artistically?". On an artistic level, sure, it's completely debatable. On a graphical (ala technical) level there's really no contest between the two. Nor would anyone expect there to be, all things considered.

I'm not sure if your last sentence is in reference to art or graphics, but if the latter then there is a rather strong correlation between graphics and hardware (hence we get new hardware every few years). There's only so much you can do on a small, $200 - $300 console (gamepad included) running on 33w.
