Its interesting you mention that actully. because i thought this game had potential as well... until i saw this: if we look at this video. and the first one (i didnt watch the others, after having seen enough with this). most of what we've been shown is cutscenes. and we have lines like "your resistance is futile", or "i am the great Wizen", and so little of the gameplay is actully shown. and where it is shown, we see no skill, no strategy in the combat. all we see is the hero get knocked down, attack the enemy with a button press - then we move to the next cutscene. where we have a lot more talk. and look at the environments - everything is so bland, its like the world ended and the only colour left in the universe is grey. i mean DMC had great gameplay, but it was also filled with this type of thing. just loads and loads of talk. and we have comments for this video saying how this is mesmerising stuff from Capcom once again. i just cant believe this is what makes a good game. fair enough i agree Ninja Theory had some serious problems with Enslaved's gameplay. but the story, the dialogue between characters was meaningful, the environments were stunning, there was a good balance of cutscene to gameplay allocation. DmCs trailer was brillant compared to this. i mean just from the begginning, we can see some type of psycological depth to the story. the character's body language says more in 2 seconds rather than having 30 secs of talk. the trailer was mostly gameplay rather than cutscene. yet everyone is saying that this Asura's Wraith is brillaint and DmC is awful. so my point is, while i can see why fans are upset with Dante's new look, i really wouldnt want another DMC like Asura's Wraith. i was done with the series after DMC4, which i didnt have fun with. but i can see myself becoming seriously engrossed in DmC, and really enjoying it, not as a mindless Japanese button basher. but like a fine gaming experience. |
Oh my God! That trailer for Asuras Wrath was awesome I didn't saw it before, now I'm 100% sold on that game. You know I never talked about gameplay for NT DmC because I can't judge it until I play it but the whole Dante thing looking like a depresed drug addict just turns me off, I'm not liking the whole artistic look of the game and I can't connect with the character.
