Think of things where you can shoot things, but they're not purely shooters.
GTA and Sleeping Dogs might not be bad examples, though this will be linear.
I think most are missing the meaning of "filmic" in the context of what he was talking about. I think he's referring to the types of effects they're doing. He specifically mentioned film grain and lens distortion and that other games almost look too clean. I don't think he's saying it's going to be entirely QTE based like Heavy Rain.
Hah hah hah
Yeah. The only PS4 launch title I'm less interested to try than this game is Knack, which still looks like it should be a $20 downloadable game.

I don't understand the disdain concerning "filmic"
What game hasn't been cinematic in scope the last 15+ years?
Ready at Dawn is a good studio. I refuse to dump on them because they used a word that incorporated a sense of storytelling.

So basically it's not a video game.
But hey, it has like a billion polygons and sweet lighting!

If its a cinematic version of Uncharted meets Gears of War then color me excited.

Interesting read. I really can't wait to find out even more about this game. The small teaser did look interesting to me.
TLOU is "not a video game"?
Because imo it has some of the sweetest gameplay of the generation wrapped in a nice "filmic" coat.

Hopefully "filmic" doesn't refer to the framerate

Awesome, a single color toned game based on shooting stuff till they die based on looking like a film... lens flares, water hitting the camera and shaky movement everywhere...
Never seen one of those before. ¬¬

It begins
This gen - "OMG why are games so linear"
Next gen - "OMG why are games so open"

Cool. Glad its 3rd person and is a story game. Would have steer cleared if it was first person. Hate those games.
Uncharted clone then? With generic monsters instead of generic soldiers/mercs?

Filmic...really?
These buzzwords the industry use are getting dumber by the year.

I think Uncharted, TLOU, and all the other clones barely qualify as games.

I don't think it is, I think the guy on the Bombcast said it's all the time.
As is The Evil Within by the way.

I'm really not sure what to say about trying to emulate film to the point of, well, actually emulating film.
The presentation lost me completely during E3 as soon as the steampunk guns came out anyways, but now I'm morbidly curious to see how this ends up.

Your opinions are truly awful then, and I'm glad that these developers aren't catering to you.

With the correct setting and pacing it should be a fun ride. Not every game has to be an open world, genre breaking experience. I'm all for games like these too.

You should try to think less.
Filmic and cinematic aren't themselves 'dumb', but the industry types that throw it around to puff their chests out sure are.

I hope it's like L4D and not like every other TPS/FPS campaign. Now there's a game that is linear, yet always dynamic thanks to the AI director, and manages to become even more "filmic" as a result.

Sounds like Uncharted.

I kinda wanted a free-roaming type of mashup between Killing Floor and Borderlands.

I don't think that they're looking to clone anything. They're just impressed with what ND has done with storytelling. And if you're going to get inspired by anyone in gaming from that area, then you really can't get any better than ND.

TLOU has like 10+ hours of pure gameplay with dynamic encounters that you can approach in several ways and it's not a game. Gotcha. I can see where you're coming from.

They're talking about simulating lenses, distortions and dirt. Filmic is a pretty apt description.
The Fox Engine dudes were saying the same things about their tech as well.

I think he's using the word filmic to emphasize that part of their design is to include things like different lenses, realistic film-like filters, etc. The physical aspect of film. Cinematic usually just means movie-like in terms of game design/story.
Thank you.

This. Except its not my favourite game of this gen.

That's true. I remember a Simpsons episode where a character was talking about how dumb people use certain words to make themselves sound important. Need to find that episode.

1. Are you seriously calling TLoU an Uncharted clone?
2. It doesn't matter what you think, they are games.
Anyway, RaD are awesome and I can't fucking wait to see what they can do with a new IP.
