The combat looks fun. Traversal fun. Everything else... I just can't put my finger on it, but feels off.

Environments in this one are some of the most unimaginative I've seen in a modern (supposedly) AAA game. Up there with the likes of Saints Row or Gotham Knights.

This might be the reason it feels off to me. But barren and desolate might be by design for overall mood/feel of the world.

Maybe. There are areas in Elden Ring that are barren and desolated but strong art direction makes them interesting to look at and traverse.

Jesus they made the character's arm cuff a character called CUFF? Sweet fuck, this is what creative bankruptcy looks like.
This game looks like a bad MMO asset flip with those big dead environments, and poorly blended enemies.
This is budget AAA, the company saves a ton of money, and passes the savings onto themselves.

Once this is $40 it will feel like a steal. Looks like a fun open world collection / combat game.

I really want to like this because the magic looks pretty cool. Every thing else looks boring as hell.
Why would they make the environment so...bland. Has that small team indie feel to it. Like all the resources wentto the magic and effects and they didn't have time for anything else.

It's like a bad version of Grimoire Weiss. How you fuck that up I don't know.

The game looks fine but I have zero interest in playing it. Maybe I'm completely wrong but the narrative looks like something intended for Zoomers. Nothing wrong with that but it just doesn't appeal to me in the slightest.
I feel like it's gonna tank but I don't necessarily want it to, it looks quality to me. Just one of those things, simply not interested.

That looks cool. Battle mage stuff is my jam.

Really want to see the performance mode.

The combat and traversal look flashy and cinematic at certain angles, but any time I've seen it without all the slow mo and trailer edits, they look like a mess.
The combat looks jerky and oddly loose at the same time, with way too much slow-mo when you bring up the magic wheel every 5 seconds to switch and align spells; the traversal barely looks like it breaks down any time Frey is moving up some kind of vertical surface. The layout of the very boring environments don't seem to mesh with the type of parkour she's pulling. Animations look odd kicking off from one surface to another.

Its like Prototype and/or Infamous + Control with a dash of Just Cause 3/4. I think it looks very nice visually if a bit technologically dated. I really loved all of those games but the narrative, characters and the rote...ness (can't be bothered to look up a synonym) of the gameplay means I won't play it until its 20 quid or less.

Man the combat in this game looks fantastic.
Visuals look dated as fuck. I wish they had stuck with the fantasy almost cartoony artstyle of FF15. The somewhat realistic setting doesnt really look good.

Agreed. With this trailer, I pre-ordered. Needed to get this early purchase out of the way before I spend a ton in Feb on PSVR 2.

This is my exact thought process and plan of action.

Spell effects still looking cool.
Pretty edgy to have a Mature Rated game only for cursing. We've heard the dialogue already, it's cringe af.

Its the FFXV style environments and jank that feel off. And I don't really like Isekai themes, though Stranger of Paradise was kind of fun. Combat does look good.

Either day I cannot wait for the 24th of Jan. Day 1 for me.

There is going to be an exploration deep dive on the 10th apparantly. People say the world looks barren and unengaging but we should see a more in depth look of the open world features on that day.
Thanks bro. I actually made a whole bunch but didn't wanna post them all on the same page to avoid slow loads lol. Might as well post them more frequently since God of War overshadowed everything anyway xD

I think I need to see more of the villain to rekindle my interest in this.

Will probably put my preorder in for this soon
I hope the next deep dive is quest/story stuff
