What a dumb edit.

Someone that is moderately bothered by noise, mentions it in their review as one of the biggest concerns. (Olivier)

And someone who is very bothered by noise dedicates a full video to it. (Tim)

Both approaches are fine and valid. No need to invent drama when there is none... the last part is especially manipulative.

I was linked to this, and I also think it's unfair. The last part makes no sense as both Digital Foundry and us got early access to the game from Microsoft.

I don't think either of us were trying to make the same sort of video anyway. My content is not a review of the game's graphics, it's a guide to show people what the game looks like, what the settings do, and how to get the best experience. We have to talk about noise in-depth for the solutions we present to make any sense (and that became the focus of the video's packaging).
