From some of these responses about gameplay it seems like many have not played the original game.

 

[oldergamer]

Looks good but not as good as the CG they showed before.

What they showed before was realtime. Epic confirmed that.

 

[FlyyGOD]

Looks heavily downgraded. Guess its another Halo scenario where the prerendered reveal is miles ahead of the actual gameplay.
Quite disappointing to say the least.

if you think this is disappointing im not sure what your expectations are or if they're reasonable.

I based my expectation from what they have showed in the reveal trailer and this is not even close to it.

 

[Vasto]

Ninja Theory got these people posting pics.

What they showed was the best looking game on any next gen console.

 

[Beechos]

Not just that but they're making it seem like the whole game will be like this. The first game was pretty much a walking simulator with some puzzles and combat. The atmosphere and story was what made it special.

 

[mortal]

Amazing presentation and visuals, but that gameplay was on rails like an amusement ride

 

[nemiroff]

The amount of desperate gaslighting, downplaying and strawman-ing in this thread is quite the sight. I love it. Ninja Theory is obviously on the right track to something special here.

Edit: And here comes the usual suspects and their lols. I'm amused.

 

[AddictedProxy]

I disagree. This looked maybe on par with the better looking last gen games and with close to zero gameplay interaction at that.

Maybe if they show more (actual impressive) stuff I will change my mind but as is I was not impressed.

 

[NeonGhost]

Cool looking cinematic with quick time events but my god the chromatic aberration needs toned down so much

 

[mortal]

It's the same or better.. just different light source and more stuff in the new vid.

Nah bro, the first trailer's character models were certainly higher poly. This still looks great overall, but it's not the same nor better.

I can't take you seriously if you think this game looks like gen. What about this game looks last gen?

Watched it again on the big screen. The transition between gameplay and cinematic is seem less with movie quality visuals.

Ninja Theory is on another level.

You're blind dude

 

[Concern]

Looks amazing but I need to see more. Looked so good im skeptical lol.

 

[RaySoft]

Facial animation is not near the quality off the first CGI trailer, but the rest of it was top notch indeed.

 

[AddictedProxy]

I can't take you seriously if you think this game looks like gen. What about this game looks last ge

What look next gen about it?
Character models? No. Geometry? No. Effects like the fire? No. Physics? No advanced physics on display.

 

[Matsuchezz]

The original games gameplay is boring. And same type of enemies. The story and sound design was fucking amazing. Hb 2 looks fucking awesome. I love cinematic games and ninja theory can deliver these kind of games.

 

[FlyyGOD]

Game looks so good you can't tell were the in game cinematic end and the gameplay starts. It's totally seemless.

 

[nemiroff]

I disagree. This looked maybe on par with the better looking last gen games and with close to zero gameplay interaction at that.

Maybe if they show more (actual impressive) stuff I will change my mind but as is I was not impressed.

There's not a single person in here that believes what you're writing, including yourself and your supporters. So why don't you just drop the facade.

I'm absolutely loving the haters reactions. They gotta do what they can for their own sanity, ya know? ☺

 

[Max Payne’s Baretta]

The insecurity, the anxiety lol! This is the best looking game revealed to date.

Like shit it looked last gen.

 

[Fbh]

The visuals and art direction are fantastic.

But calling that gameplay is a bit of a stretch.

 

[Godot25]

I would say it is day one buy for me...
...but you know...
...Game Pass

I dont believe it myself? What?
Supporters? What supporters?
Lay off the crack.

 

[Nemesis Prime]

Graphics are insane what the FUCK

 

[I'm nobody]

The downgrade is real

 

[LordCBH]

That looks pretty fucking sick.

 

[FlyyGOD]

The downgrade is real

I don't know about that but I know the salt is.

 

[AddictedProxy]

You're blind dude

Like shit it looked last gen.

Great arguments. Here is the reply you craved so much.

 

[Punished Miku]

We knew the graphics would be good. Just waiting to see if they've improved gameplay from the first game. This definitely didn't tell me how the gameplay actually works. But they have my attention.

 

[marjo]

The graphics were incredible. I would like to learn more about how it's going to play.

 

[remember_spinal]

Def a downgrade from the original reveal but it still looks good.

It's really the actual gameplay that needs a lot of work

 

[oldergamer]

Great arguments. Here is the reply you craved so much.

Whats to argue? If you think it looks last gen, you are full of shit. End of discussion.

 

[Chukhopops]

Looks impressive but I hope they improve the gameplay from Hellblade, which is hard to tell from such a scripted trailer. Whatever happens I'll be on GP when it comes out so I'll give it a go.

Also lmao at the post histories of some of our new members here, absolutely zero bias to be seen

 

[Max Payne’s Baretta]

I think some people are mad that this trailer makes alot of unreleased software look outdated.

 

[AddictedProxy]

Whats to argue? If you think it looks last gen, you are full of shit. End of discussion.

I guess you and others in the thread are easily impressed and have the memory of a goldfish cause the reveal trailer actually looked next gen and this is not close to it.

 

[abacab driver]

So funny how when the reveal trailer was shown, all I heard was "that's not gameplay."
Now that gameplay is shown and looks unbelievable, all I'm seeing is "downgraded from the reveal trailer" as if that was gameplay.

Understandable though..as its the only thing you can compare it to at the moment. ☺

Well done, Ninja Theory.

 

[Hoddi]

It looks fantastic but I have to agree with the 'downgrade' sentiment. The original trailer looked far better than was ever realistic to expect of the new gen. But that's been true of every single 'next-gen' game I've played so far.

The shitty YouTube compression doesn't do it any favors though. It should look a lot better in person.

 

[MarkMe2525]

Looks heavily downgraded. Guess its another Halo scenario where the prerendered reveal is miles ahead of the actual gameplay.
Quite disappointing to say the least.

This comparison is just straight up ridiculous. Almost trolling level ridiculous.

 

[lh032]

It does look good, but not sure how good is the gameplay though.

 

[oldergamer]

Whenever an xbox game has good graphics people say "wheres the game play". When a PlayStation game has good graphics gameplay isnt mentioned

 

[nemiroff]

Looks impressive but I hope they improve the gameplay from Hellblade

Of course, even those of us that enjoyed Hellblade as a whole has legitimate criticism. The combat and puzzles had a LOT of room for improvement. Sometimes playing the game I was even frustrated as fuck. The devs knows as well, and I'd be very surprised if they didn't address these issues.

 

[Salty Popsicle]

You can tell from the comments here who played the original game and who has not. Those asking "where's the gameplay" never had any intention of playing this gem and probably think it's a hack and slash like God of War.

 

[oldergamer]

I guess you and others in the thread are easily impressed and have the memory of a goldfish cause the reveal trailer actually looked next gen and this is not close to it.

Keep repeating yourself you will eventually believe it. Meanwhile it looks amazing.

 

[Punished Miku]

I say the same thing on both. But that's just me.
