Ehhh okay?
Animation work leaves quite a bit to be desired. Also, the aesthetic overall feels like this needed one or two more passes by the artistic lead before settling on something final.
. . .that said, I've always wanted a "spy game" set in an immersive world, where you had to suss out who was the bad guy (player controlled) and vice-versa for the others. This looks like an interesting spin on the BR or hero-shooter format (not sure which it is), but I have a hard time believing this isn't just going to devolve into the same-old same-old gameplay of the genre.
Because they both have black male leads with stylized 60's character designs right? That's literally the point of this post.

You got me, man.
Yes, the style, music, sound cues and trying to sneakily kill each other reminded me of Deathloop. And now that you mention it: I guess the characters are also the same skin color! Wow.

Cores, shaders and BIOS oh my!
The Ship was fun as a Half-Life mod but it seems none of the stuff that came after it, The Ship 2, Murder Party, Remasted, Bloody Good Time, improved the formula meaningfully. This looks like the same thing too, is the studio comprised of former Outerlight staff or they just loved it that much?

So, art style is only realistic visuals?

The graphics are fine. Gameplay is way more important anyway.

Looks like previews are dropping now.

Preview: Deceive Inc Wild And Crazy Stealth Experience Is An Absolute Blast | MMORPG.com
With its retro 70s Spy aesthetic and interesting take on the social stealth sim, Deceive Inc hits early access today. Bradford had a chance to go hands-on before the beta test and, while still rubbish at stealth games, came away still as hooked on the idea as ever.

Deceive Inc.'s new maps & gameplay spice up the spy action
Deceive Inc.'s Field Upgrades & Loadouts will provide playstyle variety even on the same agent, and the new maps provide a devilish multitude of opportunities.

Not really. Among Us is an extremely social game. Talking with others is one of the core mechanics. This seems to be non social unless you playing teams, and then you only seem to be communicating with teammates.

This looks cool. But this reminds me of Spy Party. Did that game ever come out?

Any impressions? This is arguably the most innovative, creative title of the year.

On GAF, some people are upset because 4k native, ray tracing, and Covid set back the next-gen graphics race a bit. So they take out their frustrations on games that don't look realistic like this one.
Either that, or some of these posters are teenagers/early 20s types who think that a game has to look and be mature for them to feel more mature playing it. It's been a never ending cycle since Wind Waker.

Yeah, I played about 3 hrs. All solo, no teams yet.
Too early to tell but I'm intrigued...which is more than I can say for 99% of this industries games. I do like that waypoint trail they give you. Makes learning these complex levels much more manageable. I'll be playing a bunch this weekend.
What about you?

Looks like it has DLSS and Intel Xess support

Just played 2 rounds. Yeah this is mad fun. Sadly it will probably die out in a month like every good multiplayer nowadays
I've put 7 hours into it the past 2 days. It did enough for me to buy it on release but I'm not confident there will be a playerbase in 6 months. The progression is pretty weak and all the games blend together pretty fast.

What a shame. I was put on to this game by the guys at 4PlayerPodcast. The idea for the game is so cool. There’s no excuse for this game to not have a publisher. I truly believe at this point, if it’s still in early access, then this is all on the developer.
