I think it is purely to do with how long they've had the game / when the embargo is up / when they record the QL.. In the case of Dishonored Patrick was playing it for review so he had a better understanding of the game at that point, and by the time the embargo was lifted he was already deep in the game, also as stated jumping in blind would have not been a very good look at that game..
I don't think they are/ or should ever become alternative's to video reviews, I think that the QL's a video of pure gameplay and the guys talking about the game they are playing, have evolved from where they started to now..
