| bobobologna said: New shots look great. I am being cautiously optimistic. I think most people hated Oblivion for a couple reasons. Everything looked the same. There were hundreds of ruins and dungeons to explore, but they all looked the same (either a tomb or a dungeon or a cave). Very cookie cutter. Hopefully this game spends a lot more time actually crafting the world instead of Bethesda's copy and paste method. People also hated the leveling system. Having enemies level with you is stupid. Also, the level up system was retarded. Depending on what skills you set as your major/minor skills, it was very easy to get either way underpowered or ridiculously overpowered. Hopefully this game does a MUCH better job with that. Last, the graphics in Oblivion plain old SUCKED. They looked great as a screenshot, but the minute ANYTHING moved, it looked like utter crap with some of the worst animations in a modern game. I've never played King's Field, so I have no idea really what to expect. But the very little I've seen has me pretty interested. I love the art style so far, especially the new screens just posted. I really hope that this one turns out great. |
absolutely correct
Oblivion loocked very good in screenshots, but after some hours of game time you realize that it just doesn't matter where you are, because everywhere looks exactly the same and feels exactly the same, because they let a computer programm create the "huge world" by random .. what a bad design decision
hand crafted worlds are far more interesting, so I hope this one is atleast 70-80% hand-crafted
and ofcourse the level system in Oblivion is redicules, it actually penelizes you for leveling your main skills, while you get very very strong if you just level your side skills (which won't make you level up -> the enemies stay weak)
if Demons Soul's doesn't have these flaws and only the strength of Oblivion and of JRPGs, then it will be a very good game
