New El Shaddai Trailer - Woah
- Thread starter sprsk
- Start date
I thought this game looked awful and sounded awful but in motion... jesus. It is stunning!
I mean the main character still looks beyond words terrible, but that's about it. Which makes me wonder if the main character was designed by a completely different person than every other aspect of the art.
In motion the game looks like transcendence, like I just went through the rabbit hole and am speaking to God over a wave of LSD. The acid burned ruins, the incredible use of color and light... I am seriously thinking of starting my shroom crop again just for this game.

Looks great. I know the game is early so I won't harp on the combat too much except to say I hope they add in some visual effects when characters hit each other because it feels a bit antiseptic at the moment.
Also, I'm not enamored with the protagonist's face design. Looks a bit bland amidst a sea of amazing and inventive art direction.
Also, to those saying the protagonist's looks stupid at least it looks unique and not the kind of thing you'd forget or mistake for something else.

There is some sort of confusion going on with this game...I don't know what the real story is, but 1up's article on this said it was being developed by Clover. Clover no longer exists, and was part of Capcom. Most of the talent from Clover went to Platinum Games.
According to IGN this is published by and developed by Ignition. Apparently, the game's Director and Producer though both formerly worked at Capcom and Clover having worked on games like Devil May Cry, Viewtiful Joe and Okami. I have no idea what their roles were on those games.

At first I thought it looked pretty meh.... but hopefully the ex-clover guys can spice it up.
Art style is alright, but the gameplay needs work.

This could really go either way for me. Some shots, like the side-scrolling section in the gif above, look great, and I do get see the (favorable) comparisons to Nier. Other things, like the battles that take place in a nowhere-zone, look cheap and terrible. There's stylishly abstract, and then there's environments that feel empty. Yeah, I know, "not representative of final product", and it does look slightly less like a student project than the first screens/video, but this game is TBA 2010/2011? And they showed it in a state like this at E3?
Lotta work to be done there.

Looks like a bad translation from the trailer. At the end he says "it's been a while, enoch" but the translation just says "what brings you?" It doesn't give any indication that they've met before.

Funny how last year I had never heard of ignition, and this year they have published a bunch of my favorite games for this generation.

Hate the character design with a passion, love the overall art style and the environments.

Finally got around to checking out the trailer ...pretty damn amazing I must say! 
They had like 4-5 trailers at E3, and the convention was plastered with posters of Enoch w/ a pronounced bulge.
Some of the other trailers focus more on the cellphone-toting pre-fall Lucifer, Enoch's guide through his journey.
Talked to Shane about it a bit - minor combat takes place in the game world, but more important encounters take place in Okami foldspace.
It should be playable at TGS, but the vibe I'm getting is... Okami Tensei Gaiden.
The really should just call it "Eyegasm: Something Something Bible Something" in the U.S.
They have three internal studios: one in the UK, one in Florida and one in Tokyo. This, obviously, is the Tokyo production.
