Am I the only one who thinks this looks kind of terrible?
I think it depends on what you're looking for. Sure, there's a "generic art style" to many of the designs, and the voicework and cpu-allies seem a bit wooden. But if you look past that, there's combat and gameplay that looks SO far beyond what most games of this style offer...
Even the personality of what they're adding (such as what kind of magic, and the concept of the world) just looks fit to appeal to what one like me has always wanted from games like this. It's not the most OBVIOUS way of doing it, but I really think this game will offer much of what I'm missing after the first 10 hours of an elder scrolls game, for example.
This game looks fantastic. I'm glad there's no multiplayer, because quite honestly I'm sick of games having it being shoved in there.
I actually kinda agree. I REALLY wanted multiplayer for this game in the beginning, but as they show how much they've worked on the single-player experience, I really think what they're doing fits better, for now.
By this time in this Gen, I have a load of games with multiplayer components that I'll never TRULY play, or that are eclipsed within days of release by something else. While I'd love to see D.Dogma get a weighty MP component, I'd rather see that happen in a sequel, where it can be properly developed, and truly become a deeply-developed aspect of the package.
