Why does people think that Demon's Souls 2 won't happen?
Like Sony doesn't know the value of that IP?
And no, Dark Souls is not Demon's Souls 2. Same concept, different approaches.

Again with the tease, I think this basically confirm the real DS2 at TGS right?gonna be a tight fit then
gonna be a tight fit then
The meltdowns from the people that thought it was impossible for From to make another souls game next to Dark souls 2 is going to be glorious.
yep, i'm out.
I love me some exclusives, but I wouldn't go that far.
Some of the most celebrated modern games (not to mention some of my own favorites) were multiplats with PC releases on top of that.

And that video in turn also has bad compression, it's just not as obvious when there are slow tracking shots. In the quick-edit bits, it looks equally terrible. The takeaway is that Youtube compression is killing the image quality.
I mean, just how bad does this look?
Few gameplay grabs from the Sony Playstation Life trailer. Lots of compression (YouTube video), but you can see how fantastic it looks. Can't believe how close they got for an online only game, and with such an early build.
Is that an Augite of Guidence I saw him walking with or is he just happy to see me?
If I had to chose what game, DR3 or Deep Down, to be exclusive to my platform of choice it would be this.
I'm getting the warm and fuzzies on this one.

Multiplayer 3D randomly generated dungeon crawler?
Yes please.
As usually, I remain hopefully optimistic that it doesn't turn out to be shit.

Of course there's always something that can go wrong but if they nail the combat, loot system and random generated dungeons together with the fantastic graphics it could be a megaton pretty early in this gens lifecycle.
Oh my, just thinking of all the co-op fun in an unlimited amount of new dungeons with loot to find makes me dream.

Not sure how I feel about always online. Do they mean a persistent online single-player game like Demon's Souls, or will this game have people running around all over the place and boot you from the game if you get signed out of PSN?
And will the time travel/memories mechanic be enough to totally turn me off of the game? Only time will tell. The stupid conceit turned me off to Assassin's Creed so who knows. Depends on how much we have to deal with what is sure to be the moronic present-day storyline.

Well he did say it was very very early footage.

This needs to be made into a 'deal with it' gif.
It's weird that they focus on that, because it's really not very impressive to look at. And that vaseline slathered look brings back bad memories.
Okay fair enough. There are a lot of multiplatform games that are awesome. I should rather say I hate this multiplatform development. It's lowest common denominator stuff and ignores the unique strengths of each console.

I think they showed that guy with different skin texture and furr (enemy randomization).

Part of the fun of Demon Souls was the planned stages that were so very well laid out in advance.

Exactly. They allow for better balance and enemy placement. Randomly generated stuff is very limited in that regard but it does a good job of remaininig fresh to a degree every time you go back to them

Warframe is an example of a game which has randomly generated content.
It works pretty well (you don't end up playing the same levels over and over again) but the level design and visuals look recycled.

Resident Evil 4 was originally a Gamecube exclusive. Don't believe their lies.

Fantastic. Should be in the OP.

I'm pretty interested in this. Capcom better not mess this up and release this in Japan 8 months ahead of the west. This game looks far more western than Japanese.

man this looks fantastic.
Really impressed with Capcom getting it that close to the Feb 2013 reveal.

So, it's a "Japanese" version of Assassin's Creed? (I know, beaten). I find this mildly interesting.

im interested in the random monsters. i assume all the creation of the monster is based on data that will be random to a certain extent?
Randomized dungeons are cool. Doing the same dungeon again and again can be a bit of a grind. That's what killed Dark Souls for me.

Those that are trying to downplay the visuals are completely crazy. Deep down looks fantastic and it's pretty damned obvious that the first tech demo was "in-engine".

close enough...
Not a fair comparison though, as he's not getting struck by the flame and cowering behind his shield against it in the second screen.

The design is fine but when they reuse assets and similar colour schemes and textures it's all pointless cos it just looks like a different version of the same thing
I think well designed maps are still better

Monster behavior and ai will be more important than how they look, I hope they have some really varied enemy ai to fight against

We will have Dragon's Dogma 2 for all that.

I hope there are some more varied environments in the final game, these brown caves and ruins are gonna get old pretty fast.

Welp, I still feel like I don't know enough a about the game to judge it.
