    Want to see Lackluster graphics? get Shogun 2 Total war. First they advertised it with Direct X 11 support. Then they said that Direct X 11 support would come a month after launch and that Antialiasing would be supported only on Direct X 10.1 and upwards.
    Today (after launch) we discover that nothing over DirectX 9 is supported at launch, and that includes the fact that the game doesn't have AntiAliasing for everyone. Of course the developer "forgot" to mention it.

    The very convenient (and laughable) fact is that reviewers and media have been given a build of the game that had the full graphics (DirectX 10 DirectX 11 and AntiAliasing) enabled, basically dropping into the false and misleading advertisement realm.

    Compared to having to play a game from today without AA, this game looks fantastic. Compared to creative Assembly and Sega, Square Enix did a great job.

    They didn't get excessively involved with effects that would cause issues, and as a result we're at least getting to play the game without horrible jaggies all over the place.
    First rule of game development: Don't bite more than you can chew.
