I wouldn't say it's a spoiler but sometimes it's nice not knowing when the end game events are coming.
Yeah, it looks washed out to me. Everything was too visible even at minimum brightness.
I had to switch to a non-ISF mode and drop the brightness to bring some contrast to the image. Perhaps they are going for the washed out look? I sure hope not as it is not a good fit here.

Demo complete. Impressions
Nowhere near a simple shooter where u run and gun.
Graphics are good but nothing special from what the demo showed, could be the area. The game does a great job of pulling you into the gameplay. The sounds are awesome and great with headphones. Controls are smooth and easy to learn. Play it with listen mode off and you'll get the suspense and real feel of being in this situation.

HYPE RISING!!!!
Each to their own, but it's certainly ridiculous to consider that a spoiler.
I do get that.

Videogamer has already beaten the game?
When I press Start or X to start the download on the countdown screen a message pops up saying "There are no items you can purchase at this time."
I went into the store and downloaded a free TLOU theme to make sure my connection was good and that the store was working, so... wah.

Just found something interesting on accident but I'm not sure if it was a glitch or if it can be replicated, but I think if you restart checkpoint right after you clear the room of enemies it spawns you after the demo ends.
I cleared the room of the runners and then ran up and clubbed the clicker in the head but wanted to try and do it all again with more stealth so right after I killed him I hit restart encounter and next thing I know I'm a floor up and looking at all the dead infected that I just killed. There was a crate blocking the door and Tess and Ellie couldn't get through it so after I moved it and they got through they moved another crate to hold the door open, before I could hop over it and progress the game faded out to the logo real quick like I wasn't supposed to be there.
I'm going to reboot the demo and try it again, see if I can get farther this time haha.
EDIT:
I actually grabbed the last 5 seconds if anyone wants to see it, you can clearly see I'm a floor up.

I have GOW:A but i'm also gonna hold back from the demo. I know when I sit down with the full version its gonna be a good long session, cant play for 20 minutes and stop, will just frustrate me.

Are the digital preorders supposed to be only available for GOW:A people too? Can't find em in the webstore (EU).
The game launches right after E3 so I wouldn't be surprised if they sent it out earlier.
I'm gonna try to do the same thing. I need all the luck that I can get.
Well decided to change Audio settings. By the way if any fellow GAFfer want to change to another Audio you will have to Download more data. This took me about 5 minutes.
And I will stick to English on this one, too. Some games I liked on my own language (Heavy Rain did it right) but this one begs for English Audio for me. Oh no a "clicador!" Nope, nope, nope.

Did you manage to get in earlier when we were all met with errors and it now says that? Because then it could already be added to your download list, so you might want to check that.

Yes.

Listen to the podcast from the very beginning.
Did you checked my earlier post regarding this fellow GAFfer? You can check the pre-order in the Demo (there's an option) on the Store I did not find it but I was in a rush and might have missed it in case it is there.
I posted the Two Pre-order types you can get it.
No, I didn't bother trying then since everyone was reporting issues. When I saw people posting that it was fixed I went and tried it and I've been getting that error.
Cool, thanks.That is correct fellow GAFfer, here it is if you need to make sure:

My guess is Bruisers, Bruters/Brutals(?), Breachers or Breakers... probably some huge ass mofos that pack a powerfull punch

Hehe nice. But the demo is supposed to fade out to the logo in the end. You probably just tricked the demo to spawn you again and give you a little longer to run around.

Hyped but my complaints are:
-My flashlight wasn't noticed by the runners. Humans BETTER investigate/spot me if I'm using a flashlight in the final game.
-Experimenting with the first clicker (basically fucking with it), I found that if you start sprinting, your sidekicks start shooting when it gives chase. Maybe that makes sense but was hoping to experiment without their interference.
-I was hoping the clickers would be a bit more sensitive and aggressive.

Haha thats what I think too but I'm gonna go back there to see if you can get up there on your own somehow or if it was a bug, it took me to a scripted event moving crates between joel ellie and tess that definitely is not in the demo on the next floor up from the room where the melee weapon is.
Obviously its not like theres anything to find up there but a slow fade out and a logo I'm sure but I'm curious
EDIT:
Yup you can walk up there during the fight, if you try to pull the crate and progress it alerts the clicker and they all run up and kill you, so I guess we know the infected can climb haha
ExplainRemember what Bish said about recent fascinating vocal members?
It sounds like it can be shared on multiple accounts because it goes into the download history and doesn't require a disk.
I sure will try. #Teamstrong

I think that was more about members with "hidden" agendas than actual run-of-the-mill trolls.

Pretty sure the infected are blind, so they react to sound rather than light.
According to the cast page on imdb.The 4th stage of the infected are called
bloaters

Runners are supposed to still have their eye sight
They are blind, you are correct.

Just buy the physical disk. It honestly isn't worth the trouble.

So can anyone confirm that the contrast quality is poor when indoors, especially in the dark rooms? I'm pretty sure it wasn't my TV (I have a plasma w/ decent darks), it was pretty bad. Like the darks were 70% grey.
I agree, they are pretty fucking easy to avoid (even on hard).

Afaik runners not only can see, but they still have humans emotions. Those are the ones that see you and charge at you in numbers.

Just remembered a thing about the demo that I found a little amusing, when you have stealthed past the first clicker and jumped over the wall. Why does the clicker not hear them when Joel pushes the big crate out of the way? That sounded quite loud to me

I got a hint when i was creeping up to a runner that they cant see or dont react to your flashlight.
