Nearly 5 hours of Lords of the Fallen footage via Lobos (Dark Souls Streamer)

The combat looks surprisingly competent.
Mixed feelings about the general art direction. There are details in the game (like some specific animations, especially from bosses) that look incredibly good, others very underwhelming.
Not a fan of the general armor design, but that doesn't come as a surprise. The direction was clear since the first trailers and screenshots.

On a personal note, I have to confirm my dislike for everything I've seen so far about the rogue build. I think I'll go with a cleric hammer and shield for this one. The game (and the main character's physical structure) seems to deliver the sense of weight of heavy weapons far better and in a more convincing way than it does with fast blades/daggers.

Yeah, the rogue build looks really silly and out of contest.
I really don't like the main character, wish they gave us a character creator.
 
This..........................actua.ly looks good. I was always interested in it because it reminds me of Dark Souls, but now I am definitely putting it on my buy list.
 
Let us not plague the |OT| title with anything Souls-related. It's cringe worthy bad.
 
Looks great! I am in.

Wish Dark Souls engine had this kind of fidelity. Even Bloodbourne doesn't look this good.

I really like the meticulously designed icons. Yeah the bad guys all look like variations of Sauron but there's so much detail in everything that you just can't call it a rip off when you see the effort that went into it.
 
Skipped through several parts of the video and it looks great, I was sold on this game already though.

Looked like he was using a PS4 controller, but Xbox prompts were popping up on the screen?
 
I'm probably going to buy this game.

e: Only two weeks until it's out? Get sorta hype. Will be a pain to decide between PC and PS4
 
Watched all of it yesterday, I can definitely see this being a sleeper hit; while I traditionally go for the Warrior I'll admit that Hammer is nasty.
 
It looks quite good and the video really made me want to play this, however it also looks to be very easy. At least choosing the warrior is like choosing easy mode as the dude barely takes any damage while wearing heavy armor.

Seeing a good souls player going through a souls game also makes the game appear mad easy, tho.
 
looks pretty interesting

I'm still pretty much at the beginning, but, things i really dont like is it being too story driven and having a MC in a souls like type of game, especially with his design

agreed. OT needs to be Bust related- or nothing at all.

Yeah, but when he takes hits it barely takes away any health. Usually I would die or would be close to death when the first enemies in dark souls hit me 5 times, here he still has more than 70% health left.
 
I'm not a huge Dark Souls guy, but most of my dislike was because of the difficulty. I know they aren't the same game but I'm going to give this a shot. I like what I've seen so far.
 
I really enjoyed the video.
Especially the moveset and looks of movement made me want to play this game asap.

Was not interessted in it, now I think I'll get this at release *_*
 
Best showing of this game I've seen so far. He's one of the few streamers I still enjoy these days too. Definitely happy for no multiplayer. I don't mind co-op but I hated pvp in all the souls games. Laggy and annoying to fight people with purely pvp builds in your pve build. Would prefer an arena for those that want to lag stab each other all day.
 
finally watched some of this, &, yeah, this's likely the most effective promo for a new ip i've ever seen. low-key & informative, &, yeah, very convincing...

Looks heavily inspired by it but different enough to not be called a clone.

Only real difference I'm seeing is the art style, gameplay-wise they went all the way to copying Souls' stats requirement on weapons and equipment burden system. It's a Zynga level of a clone.
 
What's with the main character hate ? Yeah he is a bulky big angry looking white guy. Also he is condemned criminal. Was there this reaction on other games starring protagonists like this ? Gears of War comes to mind.

Personally, eventhough I would prefer being able to create my own character, I don't really mind him.
 
Easily the best footage of the game so far. I'm definitely going to pick this up, just wish there was more variation in aesthetics...

Gears of Wars gets shit for it's character designs all the time.
 
Looks good to me. I like how the first boss has "stages," discards armor, then the tower shield, each time becoming faster and more aggressive.

Lords of the Fallen |OT| The Real Lords Start Here

We'll they're obviously taking inspiration from the souls games in terms of gameplay but it doesn't try to be exactly like a souls game. I don't think that it's a norm for videogames to allow player to create their character. The game just wasn't made with that in mind design-wise. I'm pretty neutral towards the main character. I don't hate him nor particularly like him, yet.

My guess is they just didn't have the resources, why else would you be forced to pay as a bald space.. ahm Viking. Aside from that the visuals look great and I'm willing to give souls lite a shot pending reviews.
