I'm excited to play TOTK, I am. But from what I can see it really struggles with performance, yet it's still getting 10's in reviews. While other games get completely slated for struggling with 60fps, I take real issue with a review who is just ignoring it because "Zelda". and don't come at me with "but it's on the Switch". That's not the point at all. You can't just decide when you will or will not look at performance in your review. Either hold games to the same standards or just admit bias and move on.
