Ryse looking gorgeously crappy

So Im not the only one who thinks the game looks gorgeous but the main character has zero charisma and the game focuses too much on 'hack, hack QTE'? At some point it will all get monotonous. This is coming from a hack n slash enthusiast. I'm not even a fan of Crysis. They are great at graphics intensive games but just so weak elsewhere.

From my perspective, It looks "pretty dull", literally. Tech seems ok, art style - very flat.

Unfortunately, Crytek is sinking deeper and deeper, they haven't made anything truly good since FarCry 1 (really big fan of that game).

They seem to have an obsession with hyperrealism to the point where the gameplay suffers for it. Luckily FPS is the best genre for graphics pushers. This Ryse game is going to be a test to see how to they channel their talents into gameplay.
