Lets be honest, Gears 4 looks average at best.

Truth? I wasn't hyped for the original Gears of War but when I got it I loved it. I wasn't hyped for Gears 2 but when I got it, I loved it even more. I wasn't hyped for Gears 3 but when I got that, I loved it too! I wasn't hyped for Gears of War Judgment and when I finally played that.....well, uh....

Anyway, the Gears games never looked great to me when I watched others play. It's when I get the games in my hands that I enjoy them. Yeah, it looked boring but it always looks boring. And it always plays great.

id have to strongly disagree with that. i never played a gears game due to it not being on PS and me not having a 360, but holy fuck is it intense and fun to watch. i was hoping for an epic showcase from gears, my expectations werent that high honestly due to the nature of the development of this title. but i simply didnt expect it to be this bad. 

people assume that i dont like dark and intense gameplay, but i do. after all, i am a fan of TLoU. but can you honestly say it was good at even showing that intensity? 

Can't speak for anybody but myself.  Funny you mention TLoU.  That was another game that never appealed to me when watching footage but when I finally played it I was (eventually) hooked and fell in love.  If you liked watching Gears of War, the feeling you get from playing them is magnified!
