Have you watched any footage?
The graphics aren't anything we haven't seen before but the art style, the attention to detail with all the hand placed items on the stall of the market you breeze past in less than 30 seconds, the deforming rice bags that spill and slowly deflate as the rice pours out seemingly physics based rather than static animation, facial and body animations, skin deformation in emotions you can read on their face without them telling you how they feel, the way the fingers conform to the contours of the rock you are holding onto without clipping through, etc..
Nothing is generated by algorithms, everything is meticulously placed by the hand of the level designers.
Nope, i've seen enough of the game, i'm outta here before i change my mind
I don't normally laugh out loud at GIFs but that was brilliant.

Marking with a

You have so many options now when it comes to playing the level.
Replay value going to high .

Agree with this. Also happens when Drake moves through water, the splashes just look "off". Like they're a painted effect.
I'm just picking fault now though. My hype levels are through the roof.
Just the entire section right?
Any cinematic single player game that you'd show 18 minutes of will be spoiled on some level, doesn't mean story, it can spoil locations, conversations, puzzles, everything can be considered a spoiler in this vid.
I remember it was like this in the E3 demo as well, people assumed ND will fix it but there is nothing to be fixed, it's the effect they probably can afford unfortunately if they want steady frame rate.
But I agree it's not a big deal at all, game is gorgeous.
You can't disable it in options?
Thank god
Devs could activate additional tutorials just for this slice of previews, so that journos can easily catch up with the essentials.
The preview event was not done on the final version of the game. So splashes can get better. Maybe...
Ah. Never thought of that.
Cool. Not really a game breaker for me but when your production values are so astronomically high things like this just stand out a bit more.
Thing is though, they've been mostly showing the exact same areas over and over.
In a game that's supposedly 10+ hours long, i'm thinking they are consciously playing their cards very close to their chest on this one.

Even if they don't the game looks so good.
How big that level was really surprise me.
They went much bigger than TLOU .
The action scene at the end got me annoyed at the person playing, as is usually the case with preview vids
I wanted him to do some rope kills and show of the melee
They already revealed 4 locations, we've seen Scotland, Jungle, City, Africa- huge (15+ min) gameplay demos for 3 of them as well.
Plus we've seen bits like the party location (cuts a second after gameplay starts) and other snippets like boat cruise, diving etc...
I wouldn't call it keeping things close to their chest, they revealed A LOT.
Not enough wild animals!
I want to drive through a pack of dinosaurs like this.
The level is yuuuuge! We MGS now!
For a moment I thought that was a screenshot... I was like 0.0

I shouldn't be speaking about this but embargoes were broken and I want to give you a better impression. Imagine that an enemy is alerted by a companion AI. There are multiple stages of being alert. The Enemy is in yellow mode. Before they ever find you, the AI companion takes them out. A truly dynamic and tense experience.
The coolest thing about the new gameplay tools is that AI is dynamic both the enemy and companion in a really neat way that makes them feel human.
I'm not gonna be able to resist, and the sad part is I'll probably end up watching it like 10 times.
It's weird because before a few years ago I wasn't a big Uncharted/ND fan, but after TLoU everything changed. Now I'll probably end up doing a third playthrough of the trilogy later this month.
Same. My mouth was on it's way towards the floor but then I realised..

Ya, a lot have been shown. Unless they have 5 more location, we've already saw half of that.
Oh I am aware. Another leaked preview mentioned it. Would love to see it all in action but that dude was just camping with the sniper
Ah cool. The gameplay previews today will depend largely on how good the player is at demonstrating and using his or her bag of tricks.Oh I am aware. Another leaked preview mentioned it. Would love to see it all in action but that dude was just camping with the sniper
Heard that a lot, TLOU was a game changer for ND, they got lots of new fans from people who didn't like them before, maybe because they've seen their games as shallow on some level, but TLOU changed it for many.

Yea the potential is big, there are many people who thinks that TLOU is a masterpiece and Uncharted is meh, U4 seems to bring the best for everybody.
I agree, but they look lifeless...

yeah you saw some birds and smaller animals but some big ones would be nice.
Could be to heavy on the framerate.

That's what I said, need more
But it's realistic thou, a team of mercenaries just went by, most of the animals fled.
