Precisely why I won't really ever listen to people claiming that anything "blows that away".

Currently, no games do.

So when you say anotehr game blows HZD away then it actually will?.

I'm finding it really random how no matter what CR studio does with SC, it will never ever amount to whatever HZD has done, and somehow BF a multiplat title leads over SC?.

I know you have the whole agree to disagree, but man do I completely disagree from one side of this rock to the other. I'm well aware that you've played SC, but I've also seen others playing it as well as hearing their impressions and to those people, SC blows them awaym hell the majority that funded the studio were blown away by the scope and general footage, unless of course they funded it but never cared or were not anywhere as itnerested in the game, but that would seem all the more confusing as to why they would even fund said game if it didn't have anything going for it compared to another title that's completely different in scope and technology. 

I'm starting to wonder when you'll say that PC has got a mind blowing visual experience that isn't just a mere demo of an engine. Part of me wants to say within the enxt 2-3 years, but I'm thinking longer, maybe if at all, outside of multiplat titles which are slightly better looking, but confined to what current gen systems can handle with less exclusive technologies being used for the higher end hardware.

SC has some amazing technology backing it, but I don't consider the overall package visually mind blowing. For all its amazing tech, it often (especially when indoors) makes inefficient use of it. The end result is something i often find bland and uninspired. The end product may be different, there are certainly parts of the game that already look genuinely stunning, but overall its use of tech feels very inconsistent. It feels like a game that's trying to brute force its way to looking nice/

I can understand why someone would disagree, just as i value the tech side of games more than many, there will be others who value tech even more (and the art is obviously subjective), but the end result for me is the same.

Don't get me wrong, even at its blandest i still think SC is a damn nice looking game, but rarely would i say it "blows away" Horizon as an overall visual package.
