This is not even close to cel-shading.
It's black outlines and illustrated textures.

Surprisingly good. Not 100% on the style though.

I hate the new visual style.

"leaning more towards cel-shading."

towards
-> never said it was cel-shading.
God damn, it looks NOTHING like something reminiscing cel-shaded rendering at all! ._.

I'm excited that they're making a sequel, but I have little hope for this without Starbreeze at the helm. Still, I may play it if it's decent.

that... looked... great! Much better than part 1. I even feel a little hype in the pants for this now.

Looks pretty good. It certainly lost it's "scandinavian" look but I guess that's to be expected when you move to a studio in canada.

Looks awesome. I can't see how people think the graphics/style are bad. It looks gorgeous.
It looks good- I loved the first, and really enjoyed the gritty gun play mixed with insane demon arm violence. I think the cell animation (edit: not completely shaded, more illustrated as pointed out above) will certainly bring out a more graphic novel style, but I do hope Acevedo is back doing voice work.

Looks surprisingly good, still really cautious as to the length and the content value as multi is sure to be a ghost town as the true kings of multiplayer are coming this year.
Guts Of Thor
Thorax of Odin
Looks great! Day 1 for me.

The animation's is real good. The Closeup of the bad guy when he tells Jackie he wants the darkness = Fuckin awesome.

One of the developers stated in an interview that North is more than likely just temporary.

The Darkness cannot die, there will always be one. The Darkness took over, Jackie didn't die. Jennie even tells him "you have to wake up now." I had to look it up: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YMqH7BvMLdM
The only way the carrier of the Darkness can die, is if The Darkness finds a new host.
IIRC Jackie gets ripped to shreds in the comics at one point, and the Darklings carry his remains to the docks where he regenerates in the dark.

Still can't believe they couldn't get Kirk Acevedo to voice Jackie, his vocal work on the first was brilliant. Instead we end up with Nolan North.....

visually, its lacking......darkness
im gonna go against what GAF seems to hold religious, it has a bit too much bright colors

I paid good money for this Dynex!
There were a few visually interesting moments, but I dunno... you can just kinda tell that the gameplay mechanics are going to be unsatisfying.
DE is a pretty good team actually.SolidusDave

The changed art style completely destroys this game for me. I wanted a sequel really bad (though from Starbreeze...), but I just can't stand this shit.
This fucking sucks
(though ripping enemies into bloody pieces with the tentacles would have been nice in the first game)

Wow really? I actually like it more because everything is hand drawn. The moon and the sky looked awesome, as do the characters. I am happy this stands out from the masses in terms of looks.SolidusDave said:The changed art style completely destroys this game for me.

Awesome trailer. Voice work's not bad. Patton's back, which is awesome.
Also, North is just temporary according to the developers. Anyway in the trailer, I did not detect his Drake voice, so all is good?

The original batch of screens looked a little disappointing, but the game in motion really works and the story seems just as twisted and mental as the first game.
Also loving the heavy gore and facial animations. The first game had an amazing atmosphere and sense of immersion that I doubt this follow up can top, but I willing to bet the story will be on par (due to creative talent) and the gameplay / gunplay far more refined (shooting and movement in the first game was janky as hell).
Also it's nice to see a PC version, hoping they bring over the first game via Steam as a sort of pack in, as I've only played through it once on PS3, and it wasn't the nicest of ports.

No one can top Starbreeze so not expecting much.

Really wish they were keeping the visual style of the first game, though the "cell-shaded" look isn't nearly as cartoony as I thought it would be. Loved the original, can't wait!
