It seems your bias defines which narative you think is more plausible.

 

Lets see, Quantum Break and Recore dont have multiplayer or coop. Sunset overdrive MP is very sidelined.

 

Why would Microsoft force this onto this particular project?

Yes...my bias DOES define the narative. However, it does not define THE NARRATIVE. 

Anyways, it's just speculation...but I think it's a little likely. Platinum is known for caring a lot about performance, we've also heard of artistic differences. I honestly doubt the singleplayer component wouldn't be ready, sure the footage was a bit choppy, but that was outdated footage. OR, it's possible that the graphical fidelty *in general*, meaning not just in the multiplayer mode, could not be supported on the Xbox One. It's just a theory, not a "this is definitely what Microsoft is doing" narrative. But I think either way there's a lot we don't know about the product. I think you're assuming a little too much that Microsoft treats all projects the same.

Either way it's just speculation. It could be entirely platinums fault, it could be entirely Microsofts, most likely it is not that black and white. 

There are massive games running on Xbox and PS4 with preaty good IQ and performance.

 

With development starting in 2013 I dont think it's fair to blame a hardware that can deliver Battlefield and Battlefront.

 

Of couse Platinum was learning UE4 and there is no open world game with that engine so far.
