Whore of the Orient gameplay footage leaked
- Thread starter excaliburps
- Start date
In fairness, LA Noire did take seven years...

Well I guess that's why it's a leak and not intended for public viewing.
You'd think that years of pre-alpha builds being sold to the public (ie. Minecraft) would get people used to the concept. On a gaming forum, anyway.
Obviously super early, but not looking impressive at all. Seems like groundwork in melee to basically rip off Arkham, generic shooting with waist high walls that would inevitably clash with whatever world they were trying to build as you gun down dozens of mindless drones just like L.A. Noire.
Assassin's Creed meets L.A Noire, this looks really promising, not to mention that L.A Noire was one of my favorite games of this generation.
Talking about AC, they used this song. lol

What are people supposed to be saying in this thread? "Oh I'm sure the final game will look great"? Obviously all comments apply to what we are seeing because we don't have anything else to go on and this thread is about this video.
People know it's not a finished game. Christ.

Can't wait to interrogate someone and select to challenge what they say only for my character to blow the whole thing by saying SHUT THE FUCK UP YOU FILTHY LYING WHORE (of the orient)
Thanks for posting this fellow GAFfer.
First thing I noticed too.
I can't wait for more info. While it's obvious a work in progress the animations already look good, little details when the bodies drop and other things too.

See, this is how I feel. Surely you can only polish a disgustingly repulsive turd so much. More than happy to be corrected, as I don't really know how any of this works.
That being said, LA Noire was mechanically repugnant, so I will forever have zero faith in this game.
EDIT: Just how early is pre-alpha? Would the TLoU's and UC's of the gaming world ever look this underwhelming throughout development?

dat title
I love it! ( Don't like the name)
They take the environment in old Shanghai very seriously,
and the game's main character is Chinese imakes it even better.(And I love L.A.Noire)
Hope this project could survive... if I got a huge amount of money, I'll support them.
Not like modern Shanghai in Dog days, which is more like Hongkong.
While Biohazard 6's Hongkong is much better.

I'm hoping that there's an adventure game in there somewhere, because another shooter isn't really what I want to see from these guys.

Exactly what I was thinking. It's basically Sleeping Dogs:1936.

It actually makes me sad that such a badass title and setting are wasted on bondi.

Looks like it could be promising, hoping it turns out well.
lol at people already passing judgements about the graphics and gameplay...

Still haven't played sleeping dogs but this looks better to me.

Yeah the mount of people I've seen slating this is crazy. If it wasn't even ready to be shown, who's anyone to judge?
Sadly everyone will miss your post and write the game off pretty much sight unseen.
Oh, GAF.

Setting looks interesting, but..... yeah... that wouldn't have worked. Animation and framerate was PS2 Getaway bad. Also, we already have Sleeping Dogs.

VIDEOGAMER.COM - like they personally own the game.
Everyone who can see what elements the design was including. There was jank in there, that can be fixed up, encounters removed or added, etc, etc, but the game looked to be, or include elements of yet another cover shooter--with awesome music, but all that's getting really, really tired, still.
You do realise this is alpha footage right?
Setting looks interesting, music is nice. Gameplay is fairly standard at this point. I'd need to know more about the story before making my mind up.

Looks like a worse sleeping dogs and that game was mediocre so....
Someone said that about the Watch Dogs video the other day, must be the 'In Thing' now!
I know that it wasn't clearly meant to be shown to public so I can look past the animations and framerate but to be honest it looks super underwhelming.
Just a typical bland open world without any of the style. Then again I'm already burnt out on those types of open world games unless they have really fun mechanics (like crackdown).
