New Too Human Pics and Blog Post

Wow, looks great. I thought the last batch looked like garbage, but these have me excited again. Character customization looks incredibly robust. I can't wait to buy this game.
 
Combat engagement is supposed to be similar to Devil May Cry, and the way you tailor your character influences things like the amount of knockback an enemy gets when you deal a weapon blow to them. So not all of the customizations are cosmetic.


Take the advanced skill tree development of a Bioware game like Mass Effect, then throw in realtime combat of Devil May Cry. Then combine that with elements of Diablo.
 
I'm glad silicon knights finally found that "screenshot" button, Not sure what I would do with out hundreds of screen shots of basically the same thing.

Actually kind of looking foward to it though.

Nice... looking much better. Hope we keep seeing improvements like this right up until release.


Keep in mind Too Human has 4x A.A., I don't think any other game for the 360 has ever had this level of A.A. before at 720p resolution.
 
Man, perception is a bitch.

MS and Silicon Knights are going to turn this around, they just have to slowly present their case. Screen shots will look better, then we'll get to see in motion stuff that will blow us away. Next comes the story elements, how the game plays and things will be alright.

No one will forget the negative press unfortunately, and even if its reviews are stellar that will hurt the game in the long run.
 
Screenshots look ok. I remember pics that looked better though.
What this game needs is an awesome combat system, to make up for the slightly weird setting.

I think it is time for a reality check.
Here is the game closest to Diablo available on next-gen systems :

Too Human trounces it graphically.[/QUOTE]

Thats a resized shot, try using something native resolution.

Obviously the character models and textures would get a massive improvement by being resized to 720p. I have the game, I like it, but really, it doesn't come close to Too Human's graphics.
 
Im having hard time to see WHAT could be good looking? geometry? low poly ftw. Char models? rofl. Lightning? not even impressive.

looks bad imo

Fuck the haters...

This game will kick ass
I agree. I'm pumped for it. Supposedly the media is playing it in early October, so we should get some more info pretty soon.

Agree. The diablo-esque gameplay and RPG elements,plus coop, look very interesting.

Let´s hope the combat system ends up being worth it and doesnt break the game, it would be a pity having so much potential.

This came into work today (PAL release is this week). The game is absolutely awful...full of glitches and it crashed on three different customers after less than an hour of play! Oh and it looks awful, runs at about 6fps, and has the worst character animation of any game this generation.

I really wanted to buy this game but there's no chance of that happening now


why must you lie in order to make yourself feel special

echo location confirmed.

Other than that, looks awesome.
 
holy fuck. i can't say this enough, but this game is truly turning out to be a work of art. by just looking at those two new pics, i can feel the love that went into making these setpieces and character designs.

2008 can't come soon enough.
 
Damn. New screens look nice.

Edit: No more blog posts till after October press event.

Our mid October press event is coming up quickly. I personally cannot wait to see everyone reactions to how Too Human has come along since our last public exposure. We will be providing game demonstrations, interviews with the directors, screenshots, hands on game time, and direct feed video for the press who are visiting.

We felt it was best to go into a period of radio silence on the blogs until then. We will resume a blog schedule after that time happy . In the mean time enjoy these shots showing off a few loot variants Henry described last blog.

Enjoy!

Demo, Denis. Please. Or, just go ahead and release this thing. Screw all the forum recriminations, I just would like to play this game.

Anything that aspires to be a 3D Diablo has my attention.

true, I think the closest competition in that arena is Hellgate: London but sadly it won't see the consoles.

I'm all for a dungeon crawling, collectathon ARPG.

You have very little credibility here.

WTF.

Did someone make today Opposite Day or something without telling me?

Who the fuck are you people, and what have you done with the real GAF?




agreed!


I really want this game to look like something, but its such a mess.
 
Looks really good indeed. And if the game had another name and came from another developer these shots would be well received all over the line.

Another developer? Eternal Darkness was one of the best games of last-gen....
 
I've been GAFfed. I can no longer tell who's kidding about liking this and who's serious.

The weapon drops sound very Diabloesque, which is good.
 
I wonder what this mid-October press event is all about? Are all press invited or is it another IGN only thing? What can we expect from the press event? Actual gameplay this time or more in-game cutscenes and screenshots.
I'm interested to see the actual game in action and the animation. Both were the only sticking points for me in the past and nothing really has been shown from either of them for quite some time.
