I see alot of Dark Souls in the art style. I'm wondering if Dark Souls had a baby with Dragon's Dogma here gameplay wise.
Given From's track record, so would the PS4.

dat real-time feel
Yeah, after watching it in 1080p it definitely looks real-time.

make sure the pudding isn't too soggy but that just ruins everything
I think the helicopter sound was just alluding to the fact he was "calling in backup" or a supply drop or something like that.
This game likely will not have an Assassin's Creed futuristic angle...

What isn't there and that you would expect for next-gen (which is probably not there because they are tackling a couple of technical issues at a time, not all day one), is cloth dynamic and hair.This character's clothing should fold as he moves, realistically, and any little piece hanging on him could move physically. Right now it's all static. Same with the hair of the guy with the torch, they are obviously not yet there.
The first things that get upgraded in an engine would be lighting and post effects (motion blur, bloom, etc.). Then shaders (skin, translucency, displacement mapping) and dynamic properties used for cloth, vegetation, breakables.
Can't wait for a new Dark/Demon Souls game on next-gen

I don't believe the fire is real time...
In engine sure, but in engine has nothing to do with the ps4 can actually render in real time.
As for the animations well those obviously won't make it into the game, they never do.

This was easily the best part of the whole conference. Capcom is totally bringing it.
I loveeeeeee how the guy cowers in complete fear behind cover when the dragon first blows fire. I love the art style and the animations and monsters look insane. The fire shield block at the end is one of the most epic shield blocks ever.
And the marketing taglines emphasize fear and cowardice, which seems to be really playing up the horror angle.
This is going to be completely amazing.

Where about is the 1080p version of the trailer?.The YT video on the OT is 720p and slightly compressed. Love to see it at a higher bitrate.

This and the Killzone game looked better than anything I've ever seen in a game, especially the cave/dragon in Deep Down.
I'll admit, this makes me very curious how DMC5 would look.

Its the same one in OP, and it has 1080P option. I think its still compressed a bit.

How does that make any sense? An helicopter in a medieval setting.

Love the fire effects, looks mind blowing actually. No more low resolution fire effects and alpha effects that plague many ps3 games. I take it because of its 176 GB bandwidth?

On ipad it's showing 720p
. Oh well, maybe blimblim (that his name?) will have the trailer in high quality on his website as he usually does.That Dude John

Did someone already make a gif of the warrior blocking the Dragon's fire with his shield that looks like it's melting? That shizz was hype.

This game looks incredible.
And, given the nature of capcom, this game will probably be on the next xbox too.

I really hope you're wrong, honestly, but the trailer was pretty ambiguous. I was hoping that they were trying to show off some of the social features of the game with that Blanka comment, but it could be some sort of "Capcom Land" with this minigame being the Dragon's Dogma portion.

That's the point. I'm talking about the social aspect of the game... the messaging... takes place outside the context of this game's setting.
I think the sound was dumb, and clearly confusing for people... taking it too literally.

Dark Souls wannabe?
I don't understand why this isn't branded under the Dragon's Dogma name. Now they have two new medieval fantasy IPs competing with each other.

This times infinity.
Although DMC5 will never look that good because FPS would be the priority. It would look clean and pretty but not that caliber.
I hope I eat my words on that.

Currently polling second in Australia's federal election (first in the Gold Coast), this feral may one day be your Bogan King.
Whether or not it animates that well in the final build is up in the air, but there's really no reason to believe that level of graphical detail isn't accomplishable on next generation hardware.

Definitely real time. You can see a some bloom/depth of field artifacts and texture filtering steps in the 1080p version.
The sound happened in the text message portion of it, while he was requesting help via what I'm assuming will be social features in the game/on the PS4. I can see where's he's coming from with that, but still the helicopter sound was out of place.

I'm really not quite sure what to make of the whole helicopter/back-up thing at the end. Seems far too deliberate to merely be an allusion to social/online features.

THAT is the best looking game I've seen. on PC or anything. Which is why I doubt it's real...
...but if this is MT Framework then wtf please for the love of god get us DMC5 on this shit. I will die happy.

This and Agni's Philosophy. Just because we'd seen it before it doesn't change that.

I'd imagine that's likely. Ono mentioned the engine as a successor to MT Framework, so everything they make is going be on it. And with the planned hiring, a lot of stuff is going to be made internally. It shur looks purdy, I tel u wat.

Yeah, that and the computer static thing in the titles points to the conceit of the game being a kind of virtual reality.
Like a game within a game.
Probably not unlike Assassin's Creed.
I really hope you are wrong but that bit at the end makes it pretty obvious they are hinting at something :/
There is no way it's a sci-fi game. They are emphasizing death, and cowardice in the marketing. This tells me it's going to be a difficult and intimidating game.
All they're doing is telling casual gamers that you can use new PS4 features to ask for help online, or even ask people on your friend list to play sections of the game you're stuck on.
Blanka's cameo is just a joke. That's really all it is. It's a medieval horror/action/monster hunting game.
