Hard is the new normal I play all games on the hardest setting from the word go.



So fucking hard not too, the story is so tied into everything its hard to talk about anything without stepping on RADs toes. Gameplay really feels like a mix of TLOU and Gears of War. The only complaint I have is that some of the story building (slower moments) tend to go on for a bit too long.

The AI is good enemies take cover and actually try to flank you. Its not super advanced but they don't just stand there and wait on you to shoot them like they did at PSX.

Sorry took so long to respond we got kind of busy.

Nice, and the bolded is actually a positive for me. Like it when games take time to explore the story and universe more and are not constant shoot bang.

Do you have the options to skip the cut scenes?

I completely disagreed with this stance. There have been over the years plenty of single player games in the 8-12 hours range that were great and worth every penny.

And I question the standard to which he holds games. Shouldn't the quality of the game matter at all when judging a game's worth? I'd rather play a 5 hour amazing game that cost $60 than a 20 hour POS that cost $30. Just my opinion though.

How can you possibly dismiss someone elses opinion on what something is worth to them personally?

Games being "great" is a completely subjective thing...as with "worth every penny." I respect that to YOU they are worth it, but to simply dismiss his opinion on the matter is ignorance, not an opinion...

Can't wait for The Order: 1886 BC - Red stones that explode :p



No story spoilers just a brief snippet of combat from a location we haven't seen

Mmmm not worth it, then.

No story spoilers, it's a gunfight in a location that's already revealed but just not this specific portion. It's a continuation of this part if you don't want to see what comes after it.

Ahh, yeah... I remember that location. Will watch. :)
 
A new video was leaked today which showed the February 2013 reveal area from the retail version. Here is a comparison.

Muted color ones are retail version. Probably post-processing added.

IIRC correctly one video had them with their ceremonial outfits and in the latest one they are wearing "infiltration" outfits.



Yeah the brighter ones feel way oversaturated and sharpened. Likely they tuned that down for a more natural look.

Exactly. That's why I'm confused.

Edit: Thanks, that's what I figured, but wasn't sure.

The best graphics ever. What sorcery are they using that even noughty gods seemingly arent? Looks like real life.

Dammit i think im praising a console game in a console exclusive game thread a lil bit too much. I should think of other peoples feelings.

I expect the cavalry to arrive at any time.
 
I think its just the uniforms
They definitely adjusted teh coloor curve to desaturate I think. (look at the skin tones is the best way to tell)
The lighting is definitely improved, how their faces cast shadows on themselves. Unless they simply altered the locations of the light sources
Both have face shadowing (checkout galahands eye socket area in the last image), its just that the images in general are darker and more desaturated so the shadows are easier to see.
They probably also tweaked stuff like lighting direction in some of those scenes.

In the new build (I'm guessing) those are their recon/battle outfits and when the are at the council or what not, they wear all the gold and fancy stuff.

The lighting looks more natural in the newer shots I would say. Looks more coherent.
