The textures and animation look last-gen.
A quick search shows the dungeons are to be procedural so I can forgive the environments looking a bit bland. As long as they're filled with interesting creatures and it doesn't get a bit repetitive this could be a hit for Capcom... or then again maybe not.
In January it was reported that Deep Down was trademarked for US and EU so I'd fully expect this to be a worldwide release.

Hmm..procedural levels ruined warframe for me. Hopefully the fantasy setting=a bit more variety.
From that video, it looks more current-gen than Bloodborne to me.

Everything looks really good except the environment, looks flat and boring.
Agreed. Procedural generation can really be hit or miss. Games like Diablo 3, Skyrim and Spelunky do it quite well but, as you mentioned Warframe handled it terribly.

The game looks crazy good! I can't believe this is a F2P micro transaction heavy title though. I would pay full price for this
It seems to be getting better and better. Gameplay and animations look so smoooooth especially that dancing mimic chest...
I made a bunch of gifs, but be warned that they are all big sized. A better version of this gif is in the folder:

Sad to see that the level design has ended up as procedurally generated hallway/killroom pap. Visuals have taken another hit as well, though it still looks decent all around. It's got that "Capcom" look, which is unique and beautiful, I just wish it wasn't so constrained.
It's looking more and more like a 3rd person Diablo-style game with direct control combat. So if the combat doesn't hold up in the long run, the brain dead level design will really hurt it.

The particles and lighting are quite nice, you have to think a Monster Hunter in that engine would look god-like.
Mmmm laaaaavaaaa
His boots are red hot.
Looks as if it plays better than Dark Souls at least.
Which is why I'm confident it will release in the west. The promotion would have been quite different if it was exclusive to Japan.

Nice footage there; some gorgeous use of lighting and particle effects. Game was seriously downgraded after the reveal, but now it's received an upgrade. I just wish the whole f2p model wasn't there, as the game looks like it's shaping up to be better than that.

I think the idea this wont hit PC is silly.
It will be PS4 exclusive in Japan, PC and PS4 in the west.
If microsoft get their heads out their asses regarding F2P I can even see an Xbox one version further down the line.

Show sample of current gen textures and animation with explaination.

Wow the graphics are pretty
Really great lighting

Isn't Sony Japan helping 'em out? Wouldn't this kill the Chance of it coming to other Consoles?

So if this game wasnt F2P and it was a single player experience. Do you think this thread would have gotten 14 pages? I think a lot of people dont care anymore for it when they announced it was F2P.

How? Both look awesome. Especially the animation. Just to bring the point home look how beautifully the mimic in this moves compared to the one in DS. Huge difference.

Looks amazing.
The art style, graphics, enemy design, battle system all look really good. Its really nice to see Capcom and SCEJ taking this project seriously. Now just reveal the f2p scheme and I'm in.
Also this is Capcoms next gen engine isn't it.....imagine a Dragons Dogma sequel in this engine 0_0

Yea you're right, it would probably be one of the most anticipated games as a single player game.
And visually (with 30 FPS) it could look much closer to the original tech demo, that alone would gather a massive amount of hype.

Be wary of chest
Looking mighty fine.
The presentation is the least of my concern for this game. Graphically, it looks fantastic to me.

take your time Capcom this is looking better and better
Plus with the eng/spanish/etc dubs, the resources put it, the fact that it was trademarked by SCEE and SCEA, and the fact that both websites officially advertise it in their upcoming games lists, I expect it to come here completely.

Yeah delay this as long as they need to make it great.
Looks like the engine is getting more polished. Really can't wait to see what they have done with the spell effects.
Excited for this game myself. First real look at what " next-gen " spell effects should look like.
Spell Effects are so good I can't help but imagine a cinematic, turn based JRPG with those kinds of details on the spell effects flying all over the screen. Will never happen, but would be amazing.
I think there is a 100% chance this game hits the west lol. Looks tailor made for it, and well that is where the PS4 userbase is at this time so Capcom would be pretty dumb not to.

i'm ok with 2015 ..no point to release this when the end of 2014 is just so full. i resigned myself when we didn't have a how of this game at E3 that they weren't just ready.*
so i'll wait.
Gameplay looks great as usual

Lighting looks great, gameplay also looks good.
The environments seem to lack a bit of personality, probably due to the procedural nature.
Character models are.. ok, i hoped for more moving parts and better cloth physics (especially compared to the reveal tech demo), but the monsters look very cool.
I would definitely play it if it was ever to come out here in the west.

I always forget about the AssCreed aspect of this game, every time I see or remember it dulls my excitement a little bit.
