Im fine with discussing that...and I haven't played it yet so yeah, it could be bad...but I didn't think the demo was bad at all.
It was done using the same engine as FEAR and on consoles at the same time as on the PC. I think Monolith wanted to make sure that
- they didn't spend a gazillion dollars on the game in a time when gaming is putting a lot of smaller devs out of business
- played smooth on all 3 systems and not just PC
- improved on parts 1's faults, which weren't visuals but being repetitive and having the same envirnments
This is why we should see mech combat, quick time events (yuck hope not too often) and varied environments.
