Agreed. They seem to have put in a lot of thought into the composition of many of these scenes, which is quite uncommon in such open world sandbox type of games
Even worst ..They were maggots...ugh
Im Hyped though. getting the same feeling as when I saw the Shadow of Mordor drop

Yeah this for sure doesn't look "last gen" overall. The only thing I could see using a bit of work is the character models but overall game looks great graphically.
That lighting. destruction, and weather effects

Looks like fun to me.
I am still confused as to why, as an officially licensed Mad Max game that they couldn't make Max look like...Max (IE either Mel Gibson era Max or the new Tom Hardy Max).
It just makes no sense to me why they made him look so generic and unlike either one (and the voice sounds like neither).

This gif is basically from the MotorStorm CG trailer, only difference is it's actual gameplay.
Exactly what I'm most impressed by the trailer. A lot of normal situations on in that trailer and a lot of it looks so atmospheric and... immense. The giant sandstorm looming at the edge of the gameworld etc... It's alarming how much hype this trailer managed to generate for me. I can see some elements that are questionable to my personal tastes (hand to hand combat: enemies just waiting for the player to pummel one foe at a time?) but the rest of it looks really up my alley.

These screen effects when you fight look annoying as hell
Hope you can turn them off...

Batman Clone?
I must have played a different Batman, I don't remember riding around in a large open desert with vehicle based combat and survival elements (IE Food/water).
Batman wasn't the first game to have that combat it's known for either, it is basically AC's "counter" based combat but they put little "Warning" signs above the heads, then got all the credit for it.

For those wondering there are over 200 unique locations in the game.
Avalanche have spoken about the vast wasteland but they didn't want it to be one big empty sandbox. So the main term they used around the studio for the wasteland is "density". Having a wasteland but cramming it with unique places and scenarios to do while still having some of those "wasteland vistas" you'd expect for a Mad Max game.

The combat looks alright... nothing special. But I do hope we get away from devs falling back on this type of combat because it's "safe." I'd like to see more games take risks and try something new with the combat.
I don't know what else they could have done with him, he looks like Mad Max to me.

Who is this voice actor and where do I know him from?: Youtube trailer

Haha, that's my biggest complaint with what I saw too. Dude looks like an ugly Nathan Drake ripoff.
qué lástima
I dont know. At least try to give him more of a personality in the trailer, or something interesting in some aspect of his design
he's the epitome of videogame guy
good-looking serious angry guy with beard and scruffy voice
regardless of wether or not this fits this particular game's theme / what it's based on, I think we found him. The most uninspired character.
Brad Dourif?

Looks like the game that RAGE was supposed to be. Haven't seen any of the movies, but I definitely want to play this.

Only problem with that, is when I seen that in the trailer I immediately thought "yup Nvidia PhysX". It honestly looks like something that'll be exclusive to Nvidia cards or won't run worth a hoot if you have AMD. (the effect the buggy kicks up)

Looks.....
atrocious!
jk
(actually, he does look pretty bad :/ )
Game itself looks great though, if a little too by the numbers.
Wish they had Hardy do face, voice and mocap.
He looks just like Mad Max (minus the Trade Marked mel gibson face.)
he could very well be whoever. I doubt the game has any real ties to the movies plot
they went for a style that obviously fits with both Mel and Tom Hardy but they could have done whatever they wanted to make him at least a bit more original
to be honest im not really complaining, per se. I dont have the answer to what they could have done with him, im just saying what I see; which is a super bland character, regardless if it fits or doesnt

I am surprised that everybody is so surprised.
Looks even better than I expected, and I was already hyped!

Have you actually seen the films this is based on?

We've reached the point where so many games have aped Max Max that Mad Max doing Mad Max is "generic."
Like seriously, Mel Gibson and Tom Hardy aren't incredibly unique looking faces or personalities in that role. All that matters is that the character wears beat up black leather gear, wields a sawed-off, drives a mean muscle car, and is a badass Australian who doesn't talk a lot.

And the level to which people are blowing it out of proportion is hilarious. "Most generic video game character ever". Yeah. Sure. Come back after playing at least 20 video games.
