Then how is it that Vince Zampanella stated that it was never meant to be a complete exclusive but only timed. MS paid EA to make it a permanent exclusive. It is a moneyhat though there is nothing wrong with it.

To be fair, that relationship had several exchanges. MS development help, full exclusivity last October and finally the funds to pack in the game for the TF branded bundle. it has quite the unique history
 
I agree, I also have a feeling that this game has a lot to do with the strangeness DS2 has. Now, that's coming from someone that has played and enjoyed the game. It has nothing to do with hating on something. This kind of stuff happens, it's not out of the realm of possibility that they had another project and decided to move resources to it.

I'd assume the same team from Dark 2 is probably already at work on Dark 3. Hopefully they improve
 
Wooow I just woke up gaf you move so fast. So near 80+ pages by the end of day.
Damn this look amazing E3 can't come soon enough.
 
Open with Project Beast and close with The Last Guardian. Sony can just knit through the rest of their conference and they'll win easily.
 
I'm trying to figure out what Gameplay oriented even means. Like, does that mean a game with no story?

It's the same thing with "next gen gameplay"

I assume some nonsensical assumption that cinematic games are not gameplay oriented. Uncharted, Gears, Order 1886, TLOU etc are not gameplay oriented games according to him I guess.
 
Purposely or not, this isn't coming from nowhere, people started talking about how DS2 didn't feel or look like a true sequel long before they knew about project beast. Now at least we know why. And it's kinda disappointing. I hope they change their attitude for the next multi-plat at least.

no. you're using personal opinion to "prove" a completely unsubstantiated "fact". the facts are that Dark Souls II is the sequel to Dark Souls. there's no "true" or "false" about it. the game is intended, both in name and content, to be a sequel. you cannot dispute these things, they are fact.

what you can dispute, is whether or not the game is enjoyable, or lives up to the impossible expectations of an overly rabid fanbase. those are not facts. those are sentiments driven by opinions and personal anecdotes.

and we knew why Dark Souls II was going to be different long before it's release. Miyazaki said it himself almost 18 months ago.

for the record I think Dark Souls II combines the best of Dark Souls, with some of the missing aspects of Demon's Souls, rather well. there's nothing in it that feels "less than" or "B-team" to me. i think it's a great game and I look forward to more from them AND Miyazaki's team in the future.
 
This game looks gives me some kind of Van Hellsing vibe from it.

I won't complain if they jump to some early 19th century like world.
 
I have never played any of the demon or dark souls games. (sorry!) Just never got round to it and my patience is super thin so I don't think I could cope with dying all the time. I don't know whether to give them a go or not so I can enjoy this one more. :s
 
I just can't help in feeling there is something negative about this whole thing. Shit seems too good.

With Sony fully behind it, it will probably be the most AAA the series has ever been, so who knows what that could result in.

Yeah, you do have a natural light in Dark Souls 2, but it's so subtle that you don't really notice it so it doesn't really add to the game's atmosphere like it does the previous games.

Not to me, easily noticable but looks more natural.
 
Funny that Killer Instinct is a fully gameplay oriented game but games like Resogun, MLB etc are not. Only Project Beast is the first gameplay oriented game ( whatever that means ) from Sony.
Anyways whatever helps you sleep at night.

Big budget. Sure indie and sport games are gameplay oriented, but they are not games that are meant to be system sellers for gamers that already have some other platforms.

And i'm not the one who needs something help me sleep at night. I play on PC, the platform that has tons gameplay oriented games.

But i gave examples in my previous post.
Dishonored, Path of Exile, Star Citizen, Shadow Warrior, Dark Messiah of Might and Magic, Dark Souls, Jedi Knight, Skyrim etc are all gameplay oriented.
Games that focus most of resources on gameplay, are gameplay oriented, its really simple - basically games with depth. Games that focus only part of development on gameplay to support narration and visual representation are not gameplay oriented.
 
I don't get all the "holy shits"

Am I missing something?

New game from one of the best and most influential designers of last gen is not only real, but looks fucking wonderful as well in these low quality assets.

This, TLG, a few cool indies and a smashing Uncharted trailer and Sony has E3 in the bag.

patience is definetely required gonna go ahead and say souls games are not for you. this game could be really different though we'll see.

Excellent post. To bad some people will ignore it and continue with its "Team B" mentality.

Looks amazing...but I saw screen tear which could of not clearly come from the feed and I am sure I see a texture join on the skeleton..Pre-order, E3, Gaming Cancelled! ;-0)
 
DAMN, it sure does look great.

BTW, not sure why everyone assumes that Sony Japan is working on this (i only see FROM's logo in the video). Did i miss something?

Yeah I reckon I would enjoy it if my backlog wasn't biting me in the ass all the time. Too many games I need to finish and I don't know if I'll ever get round to any of the Souls games. They look absolutely brilliant though.

It's like a dream. If this turns out even half as good as it seems it will, fans are in for something truly great.

it will be a 2015 title, there's a negative
Nope, that's a positive for me. More time to get it right and polish it to the gem it needs to be. Let the pot simmer on it until it's just right. All three Souls games could certainly have a bit more, so this one taking a while is fine with me.
 
Really interested in the game, even if I'm not a hufe Darl/emons souls fan (due to the difficulty...yes, I know...)
It could really be one of the first game I'll be looking for next year (I'll jump into the next gen at Christmas 15)

It seems to be only part of a trailer. It is also missing the "PROJECT BEAST" logo from the previous leak.
