I'm just marveling a bit at the characters. I mean, yeah, protagonst is a white guy in his 30s... but he's such a baller looking white guy in his 30s.

And then the other three:

It's just great, naturalistic character design with really cool, regal uniforms.

 

[Tempesta di Fuoco]

Eh, it looks okay.

 

[DieH@rd]

They did a great job with entire visual style of the game - characters, world, art style and phenomenal rendering engine.

The character design might be nice, but the game itself...no thank you.

Oh, for sure. Their art style is impeccable. Everything looks so moody and gorgeous and just in sync.

Looking at these characters I couldn't tell you a damn thing about them. Nothing about their design communicates their personality, background, profession, nothing. This is an example of really poor character design.

 

[enigmatic_alex44]

Really? All the males look the same to me. At least let one be clean shaven :/

 

[Americanmushroom]

Looks cool, dont like the chick though.

What, the chainmail and colors don't give a regal vibe to you? Almost knightly?

You've played the final version?

I suppose a post paying lip service to reductive, racist criticism of characters designs would have a vapid, superficial sensibility about designs in general.

I like the design.

 

[electric turd]

As much as I like my ps4, it needs exclusives bad. I have a feeling that this is going to bomb though

 

[Spieler Eins]

What am I supposed to see in these designs?

 

[twobear]

Well, um, to each his own I guess.

 

[SarcasticD]

The character design might be nice, but the game itself...no thank you.

What's the review of the full game you played?

 

[jackmurray]

What, the chainmail and colors don't give a regal vibe to you? Almost knightly?

Nope. The only vibe I get from these guys is "we were designed almost entirely based around assassin's creed sales figures"

 

[Tempesta di Fuoco]

What am I supposed to see in these designs?

Generic as hell outfits from the 1800s.

 

[vivekTO]

Enlighten us!! Give your HUMBLE opinion

On Topic: As a 3D character artist, the average look of the face is what more appealing.

 

[Hugstable]

I would wait til the game releases before making claims like this. We haven't seen much of the game, and things can change. No reason to be judging games that haven't released yet, for all we know, the game might be pretty great.

Yeah totally unrealistic, I wear around my full work uniform all the time and also wear funny hats to indicate my humorous personality while wearing a pin that says I heart New York to indicate my background.

First page is off to a great start I see.

 

[Cizeta-Moroder]

What am I supposed to see in these designs?

Good-looking people, I guess.

A lot of thought the same about Sunset Overdrive and I don't think I've seen anyone disappointed about it..

I have a lot of hope for this game!

 

[orava]

They look "plasticy". The skin shaders especially.

 

[TimeEffect]

Everyone needs to grow a beard. It's the next step in character design.

I want Nathan Drake with a beard, dammit. Mario, Master Chief, everyone.

Every character with an already existing beard should also be designed without one.

Scarf Era is over. Beard era starts now.

 

[Lemondish]

Generic as hell outfits from the 1800s.

Ha. This was a good joke.

 

[Dennis]

Yeah, they are nice.

 

[Out of Working Order]

Main character is Nicolas Cage.

 

[danmaku]

They look like random Assassin's Creed characters.

 

[Forkball]

Those are guys in coats alright.

 

[dofry]

Seems like a regular Order thread. OP wants discussion on the cool character designs, reading impaired individuals enter with concern/worry about gameplay. Sigh.

And yes the moustaches and beards look great. Movember the game.

The post is about character design. Character design is meant to tell you something about the character.

[Chamber]

First page is off to a great start I see.

It's a NeoGAF thread about The Order. It's only going down one way.

 

[The Llama]

The visual style is awesome IMO. Eager to see if the rest of the game matches up.

 

[King_Moc]

In his 30's!? He must have had a hard life then.

 

[bombshell]

Main character is Nicolas Cage.

He looks much more like David Beckham to me in the first image.

 

[Tempesta di Fuoco]

It's a NeoGAF thread about The Order. It's only going down one way.

Yep, I think the game looks like dogshit from what has been shown so far, but it's getting pretty annoying to see every Last of Us/The Order/David Cage thread turning into shit posting about them being movies/having no gameplay.

 

[Brutalitops]

A lot of thought the same about Sunset Overdrive and I don't think I've seen anyone disappointed about it..

I have a lot of hope for this game!

I was disappointed with Sunset Overdrive

 

[IAmRandom31]

Yup the art in the game is fantastic.

the setting, lore, weapons, art, etc. are all top notch stuff. It has all the makings of being a quality experience. We'll see how it all turns out in the end

The vitriol is real.

 

[eot]

In his 30's!? He must have had a hard life then.

My first thought too. He's way older.

 

[NotTheGuyYouKill]

I want Nathan Drake wit a beard, dammit.

I found it unbelievable that Drake spent three months in a Turkish prison and came out with only a 5 o'clock shadow.

 

[John Bender]

Eh, it looks okay.

Looks amazing

 

[Prisoner KSC2-303]

Looking at these characters I couldn't tell you a damn thing about them. Nothing about their design communicates their personality, background, profession, nothing. This is an example of really poor character design.

Or it's character design that's intended only to work in tandem with the story being told, rather than trying to communicate obvious traits before a word's been uttered.

 

[DrkSage]

corridor style!

 

[PeskyToaster]

they look really cool, I'll probably pick this game up since I really like the style of game they are creating and the idea of the world. I also really like third person shooters so even if the first try is a little disappointing I'd like to try to give a new IP another chance.

 

[Tempesta di Fuoco]

Looks amazing

If you've never played Assassin's Creed then yeah, it looks amazing.

 

[IcyEyes]

Eh, it looks okay.

No. Looks amazing.

Yep, I think the game looks like dogshit from what has been shown so far, but it's getting pretty annoying to see every Last of Us/The Order/David Cage thread turning into shit posting about them being movies/having no gameplay.

Yhea, sure sure

If you've never played Assassin's Creed then yeah, it looks amazing.

AC characters are awesome, that one from The Orders far superior.

The character design might be nice, but the game itself...no thank you.
