It wasn't painted as a "bad feature". It was painted as "this is a great feature to have but it's not a game changer", since MS fans were overhyping the idea that being able to play 10 year old games would make someone want to buy an XBOne.

The consensus was that it's a great feature at launch, when there aren't many games out and it makes the transition to the new gen easy. But we're 2 years in. XBOne has a decent library of games. BC is just something that's "there", now. It's not bad to have more features, but keep some perspective. MS fans finally got something as a "one-up", of sorts, to the PS4, so they blew its "greatness" up sky high. Bringing them back down to earth is not saying BC is "bad". It's just bringing the effects of BC back to reality.

You are completely off-side. There were threads discrediting MS capability on emulating 7th gen games based on a Mass Effect game.

At launch or mid gen, it's useful if we're still willing to play X360 games.

Xbox fans didn't blow BC sky high, you just felt sour for the happiness and hype around the feature that was much rquested for.

And what's the reality? That we can play X360 games on X1? Isn't that the reality, all the X1 fans wanted to become realized?
