The devs still have half a year to iron out those things though. The main problem I have is that the game looks like a corridor/cover shooter. There's so much potential to make something much bigger.

Nope. All realtime/gameplay.
The QTE's look a tad more interactive than usual - in that you have to look around the environment to find what you want to use before being able to press the button prompt. Will be interesting to see how the mechanic works in the event of you failing to find what you need in time.

So...Cogs of War, then?
The setting and game engine do look loverly though. But the character deaths look very stiff, lacking realistic weight and physics. After seeing Deep Down I'm a bit spoiled.

Yeah, that's probably what's actually going on here. Wish we'd get more organic gameplay.

Wow!. Now the controls are not polished!. What more?. The menus are floaty?.

Graphics wise. This game looks absolutely amazing. I'm guessing that where most of the hype is from? Otherwise it doesn't look like anything special. Will wait for more footage to see what new ideas this game has to go with the graphics.
If you go to dailymotion, you can select up to 1080p. Does dailymotion have a better compressor than youtube?
Yes, because a 2-minute clip will show everything a game has to offer. Let's not get silly over here. Resident Evil 4 is just a third person shooter, yet the varying scenarios make it an awesome ride to be on.
Hopefully we'll see more stuff once the embargo actually lifts.
Well, there's is Pavilion that announced PS4 4th person exploratory game. hehehe And I seem to remember a indie shooter game supposed to be in a 4th person perspective also but I can't seem to find it through google. There's an opportunity there
Yup and with apparent supernatural enemies I'm intrigued by how those encounters play out.

-third person cover-based shooting
-heavy focus on graphics and "cinematic" feel admitted by the devs themselves
-qte fights
-emphasis on story and actors despite no evidence of actual storytelling prowess
Games like this literally do nothing for me anymore, regardless of how good they look.

Wait...This is this the whole broll footage? Seems a bit anaemic. They really should have done a gameplay sequence like ND does.

I agree, they could move on to St Giles for something even more gritty and poor or East India docks for some sailor action
This game is looking amazing by the way.
You mean the chimney smoke? I wouldn't expect chimney smoke to have high amounts of updraft. Horizontal, unblocked wind over the rooftops are more likely to move a cape than vertical, slow updraft from chimney smoke, especially after it loses pressure once it escapes the chimney itself.

I hope MS can bring their A-Game at E3.

Got to a computer and watched in 1080p (youtube) and that is one of the best games I've seen. The art style and graphical fidelity work so damn well together.
Looking forward to seeing some of the other kinds of gameplay

And how do you know this already?
I get it if this isn't some peoples type of game because from what we've seen so far we could draw conclusions to it being a TPS, but how people can say things about the story when we know and have seen very little is beyond me.

to be honest my interest level in this game was pretty low after the initial trailer, as the steampunk setting is an aesthetic i'm none too keen on, but seeing this video, I've done a complete 180...
Looks pretty good but I'm not really impressed with the game yet. I haven't been following the development that closely but I hope the gameplay is much more than "just a tps with story". Hopefully that 2014 release date is realistic and they can stick to it.
Compared to old-gen it obviously looks awesome but games have been this good looking for years.

Would vibrant colours be suitable for a game based in London in 1886?
It doesn't have the deferred lighting of MK8 probably!
Do you expect bright colours in a slum?

Uh.... so that it looks like real-life?
I am just in awe...this game.. mean!!
RaD sure did deliver, this looks like a CGI movie, the animation/Motion/Camera everything about this game is just what I expected from Next Gen..I think this will be a great franchise this Gen and if Sony does not acquire RaD soon..they should as MS could wack out the ChequeBook (that is if they dont want to stay independant).
The QTE sections looks to replace what would be a normal Cutscene with some interaction.
Job Well done RaD...Next Gen has arrived!
But games haven't looked this good to on $400 hardware

I am quite sad that (from what we have heard) we won't get to explore much of this amazing setting.
I think its one of the biggest crimes in gaming to give you fantastic environments but have very little of it explorable.
Still, visually this game is incredible.
inFAMOUS will have to be my large environment playground.

Ah ah. This IS gameplay. The game is so beautiful people can't believe it's really gameplay footage.

Well, not vibrant maybe but there were rich and leafy areas in London as well and the weather can be good. Still, it would have been covered in air pollution at that time.
