Pretty crazy that it's PS4 exclusive when everyone assumed it was multiplatform.
The engine is impressive.

Super impressed by this game. Even more impressed that Capcom still gives Sony the time of day. As for the multiplayer part, is it gonna be like journey where you can interact with others while playing through a single player story or is it straight up mmo-like>

DR3 is not Panty Raid, no?

This looks awesome but I am not feeling the trailer music 
Highly doubt it since SCE engineers are helping them with this engine.

I want to see a very long gameplay video before getting my hype's level up.

I find the difference in opinions on the visuals interesting.
More likely in the capacity of getting it "to work well" on the PS4 rather than helping develop the engine overall.

So are you suggesting Capcom's next gen engine will stay PS4 exclusive? That was the basis of my previous post, and frankly I think it's a ridiculous assumption.

Naw. This isn't that new, Sony has helped or codeveloped engines before.
Can't really make heads or tails from the video, tbh.
Everyone complaining about online only... One might complain about BF or COD since who honestly buys those games for tacked on SP? Rather than having a tacked-on MP the game is designed with it in mind. I'm keeping an open mind. Not every game has to be the same old thing.

probably just helping them port their pc engine and taking advantage of the ps4's power.

Online only? Multiplayer? Time traveling? Randomized dungeons? Meh, still looking forward to it, just much less so.
Looks great, but why online only?
I'm basically deciding never to get any online only games on any platform now. I hate this trend.
True, and lots of people will have fun with it. Online only is just not to my personal preference. *shrugs*

but would be a coup if indeed that was what Sony were after....
(not saying it is, but its plausible)...
Not at all, I think only Deep Down will stay exclusive and possibly a timed-exclusive at that. I'm also suggesting DR3 not using the same engine that Deep Down is using.
Easy to start with doesn't mean high end development is going to suddenly be easy. Development at this end of the spectrum will still need good talent and lower level hardware awareness.

This doesn't mean it isn't easier, because someone else is helping.
After all, Sony has made the platform, they have the expert knowledge of it and should know even at this early stage how to get as much out of it as possible.
Therefore it makes great sense that they help third parties with their engines as it ensures that the engines that will be used for many PS4 games to come will be up to speed much earlier and should also allow them to begin to take advantage of the unique features of the console from a much earlier stage.

pretty much.
Nope no downgrade and also, hyperbole much?
Randomly generated dungeons are hard to pull off (at least if you want dungeons that are actually fun to play), so people are skeptical.
I'll reserve my judgement until I see more of it.

The music in the trailer is great. It reminds me of some of the music from the OST of this anime, Noir, and this song, Fall Out the Sky by XV.

Well, there may have been a downgrade, but nowhere near as big as people are making it out to be. The scene with the dragon pretty much looked the same graphically.

They made a bunch of big announcements.
It also reminded me of Yuki Kajiura. Maybe it was really by her. The games theme is also kinda Hack Sign like (Kajiura made music for the anime).

True, but combat and customization are also big parts of it.
Capcom having done Dragons Dogma already means they have my support here. Intricate level design was NOT the draw there, just the above plus team based combat using AI. still VERY much worth a buy.
patience my dear gaffer

Combat reminds me of RE6 for some reason.
I like it. But I need to hear more on the online only thing.

Specially the part with the 3-player boss fight.

how crazy would it be if Sony codevelop PhantaRey engine just to share it with everyone like they did with Phyre engine.

If it has good combat and the difficulty of Demon/Dark Souls the randomized loot and dungeon structure with co-op play is going to be addictive as shit.
If however, the difficulty is lame-easy and the combat isn't fun, randomized dungeons aren't fun.
From what I saw, the game looks great. Sony got the better half of Capcom if Deep Down vs. Dead Rising 3 is any indication.
