Oh cool, thanks.
Combat looks better than when the game was first revealed but its still looks average i have to say. You can tell this will be a 6 or 7/10 game with the odd 8/10 thrown in, unless it improves a lot.
Also is it just me or do the characters look really weird in this video?, they look like dwarfs fighting in full size armour or something.
EDIT: Wha the hell happens at 5:20, its like he does some kind of godly electrical attack or something, does this have fantasy elemants in this game?.
Also the graphics are fucking sweet in that arena part.

I like the sword spins when the character is idling. Cool touch.

"You mashin? bad luck son!"
If the animations would not be so twitchy and janky, this would look miles better.
Otherwise I really like what I see so far.
Also they say you can't hold up the shield, only bring it up for some counter-like move.

They said the game would play it self... :'(
Tbh crytek should just release an vidoc or twitch gameplay session stream
Exactly my thoughts. Game looks great, but gameplay looks terribly boring.
some screengrabs from the video
Dude needs to get that dent in his head checked out, haha.

Yeah, I'm a bit put off by some of the animations. Hopefully they tweak them a bit.

I doubt that animations are going to be fixed up before launch. They'll have to fix it in the sequel.

It's a MS exclusive so haters gotta hate. I personally think it's gorgeous and I like the setting. On a graphical standpoint you wouldn't think it's running on weak hardware.
Wonder if you can customize your character for MP. Wanna create my Titus Pullo and wreak havoc in the arena. 13th!!!!

I'm not getting an Xbox One at launch, but Ryze and and Quantic Break have me really jealous. I don't really mind the QTE stuff as long as it's done intuitively, much like it is in Heavy Rain, and if anything the QTE's in Ryze look like a very constructive evolution of the feature.

From what video are those new shots from?

Janky animations or not, Ryse seems like the most interesting launch exclusive on either system imo.
Killzone looks fun and is graphically impressive, but I know what to expect. The same goes for Dead Rising 3. Forza and Driveclub both seem alright, but I'm not sold on either just yet and I'm not interested in any other exclusive games.
Ryse looks like it could be a button mashing borefest, but it could also be quite fun.

Crimson Dragon looks great too.
Are you serious? Those are bullshots.
gaf is so soaked in this juvenile warrior-crap now it's basically impossible to clean it up.
When do the nominations come out again?
Don't think that's the reason, the Dead Rising 3 viewing at Gamescom had plenty of red blood

The animations are actually really good.. it is just that the animation transitions are extremely jarring. One econd a great animation is playing and then suddenly one is playing the next. Needs better transitioning between animations..

There is blood. Check the executions.
If that was the case then why did House of the Dead have to have a green blood setting?

I wonder why the combos have such a hitchy, stop-start-y look to them. It reminds me of Remember Me, but in that game you created your own combos from a list of pre-defined moves. I'm guessing Ryse is going to be your standard thing of pre-defined combo strings - XX, XXX, XXY, that kind of thing - so the stilted look must be an artistic choice. I just don't know why you'd make that choice. The character doesn't carry any momentum from attack to attack, so it looks kind of like one of those low-budget '90s martial arts movies starring some mildly famous kickboxer who got a three movie deal, where nobody got paid enough to think up any interesting choreography 
There's very, very little chance of that happening.

It's possible if Ryse's plot, story and acting is on par or above the movie Gladiator.
If Ryse wins awards, it'll be for the same reasons as Last of Us.
It's just so twitchy, just look at the normal sword swing, the character turns around completely and hits with his sword in like half a second, out of nowhere from the position he is standing. It has no weigth.I wonder why the combos have such a hitchy, stop-start-y look to them. It reminds me of Remember Me, but in that game you created your own combos from a list of pre-defined moves.

Plot, story and acting have always been the weakest parts of Crytek's games.
They have a long, long way to go to match Naughty Dog in that regard. I just can't see it happening.

Now that you say i did saw jupiter placed on the scoreboard.
I have a feeling they sacrificed animations to tighten up the combat. I'm cool with that.
Oh god, synced executions are so bugged right now, so terrible, they should just scrap them over to maintain consistency.
Why everyone playing this game is so terrible? What is with people slashing the air?
And there are really nice reactions from AI, like when guy couldnt even hit a barbarian with shield at the beginning, it was so amusing. AI is even taunting him, hilarious stuff

Its basically mash A to kill nothing
Have you played The Last of Us? Because it's gameplay, especially on hard, is some of the best stealth gaming to date. Winter in particular is some of the most epic gameplay of the entire generation. It isn't post-apoc Uncharted. Unless Crytek completely remakes Ryse in a matter of months it will be leagues behind TLoU in not just story and plot, but also gameplay.

Barbarian was like "Come at me Bro"
Around 2:26 you see bleed fall on the ground stays around for like 30~40 seconds it seems.

It's cool you can determine this without playing one of the games you mention.
