It kinda bugs me that some of the attacks don't seem to have any impact (in terms of animations) on the enemies... To be honest i hoped to see some bigger improvements than this footage. It's still day 1 for me though.

Only thing that bothers me from this footage is weapons appear to freely swing through walls and stuff???

Some Souls features don't need to be imitated.

Some Souls features don't need to be imitated.

I wouldn't call that a souls feature so much as just an expected behavior.

Weapons not having collisipn on the environment is one of those things that generally bothers me. RUINS MUH MERSION.

At least for games as tactical (if that's the right word for it) as Souls style games tend to be.

 

[Nikodemos]

Weapons tend not to be fully-rendered, due to the huge processing needs compared to the result. It's one of those things like cloth and hair clipping which needs way more resources compared to the effect on consumers.

Looks very improved IMO. Kinda hyped, how it turns out good.

I was hoping for more, but after that closed beta last weekend it seems like they still have some work to do before this game is ready.

Really hope they can pull it together in the end.

Rubbish hitbox, garbage commands menu and boring

Dang. Im gonna wait for release impressions but not hopeful. The look is kinda cool but thats about it. That viceral attack is right out of bloodbourne but is slowed down, i can see that getting annoying. The enemies seem super boring to fight, the animations take way too long even for beginning enemies, and you have help from another character? Weird segment of gameplay to show.

Have we seen a boss fight yet? This game seems like its taking too long to make for what it is.

What made it so bad? How does it compare to the best of the genre?

 

[ClanOfNone]

It definitely looks improved over the initial showing, but the initial showing was kinda crappy...
I dunno, I think it looks alright. I have a tolerance for crappy Souls ripoffs though, having played through Lords of the Fallen and The Surge.
Elden Ring is still a long ways off, I gotta feed the Souls need somehow.

I will say that Surge 2 looks miles better though.

Everything. Its nothing compared to even the baddest of the genre

So you're saying it's worse than Lords of the Fallen?

Fuckin' whoof. Burn.

Fuckin' whoof. Burn.

Exactly that’s the baddest example I meant. LotF

People liked it though but I couldn’t like a second in Code Vein

 

[Juke Joint Jezebel]

Holy shit, that framerate is awful still!

 

[Deleted member 471617]

Played Lords of the Fallen for about 20 hours and actually enjoyed it but im horrible in "souls" type games without my buddy called Save Wizard. Both will be rentals via GameFly so I can't complain. The Surge 2 is another rental/save wizard game for me. Hehehe.

They improved the framerate? Demo was pretty worse on Pro that shows this video

 

[sublimit]

Thank God they ditched the idea of having photorealistic graphics.
