Well I can only make assumptions since it is not released ;)  The 10 minute gameplay clip I have seen made it look quite boring(compared to the other games).

They showed 2 powers so far. But as I said befor, nothing can beat electrical power, which made the previous games that awesome. There might still be a chance that they bring it back later in the game. If not then I can already see myself not enjoying it as much.

I only need to look on a map to see that a flooded New Orleans has more variety than some Seattle.

That Deslin is a major douche should also be already established by all the trailers.

I have very low expectations, which is good because it gives the game a chance to surprise me in a positive way.

Nothing you said changes my points, you are making gross assumptions, as you progress you get more powers, Sp has stated they dont want to show more...... Gameplay will greatly evolve, have you played infamous before?

Deslin a douche?? Another assumption you have no idea how the charcter progresses as the astory goes on nor is that much of any factor in a  games success.

Yes I've played both Infamous games multiple times. There is progress in the powers but nothing that changes gameplay fundamentally.

What's so wrong with impressions? It's not like I have played the game so that's the only thing anyone has so far.

And I'm telling you that my impressions so far are that it's not as fun as the previous games. I don't expect anything that would elevate this game above what I've experienced in the previous games. If it surprises me, good for me and good for the game. If not, nothing lost.

Okay I am confused because if I were to go by your first post stating "And yet it won't get the review ratings it deserves." it seems as if you are saying it looks good and are excited for it. Then you say it has better destruction at the price of "boring" powers which is odd. Because honestly NONE of the powers or gameplay that they have shown looks "boring" what so ever. I mean YOU may PERSONALLY feel that nothing can beat electrical powers but others feel different. I like what they have shown so far the powers are not "typical" powers so they look cool.

As for the "a douche protagonist and a less interesting city to explore." he dpoesn't seem to be a "douche" at all he just seems young and loving his powers while upset at how his "kind"are being treated adn targeted which is a good thing. And we can't speak on the city as of yet so no big deal there.

I guess what you are saying is just confusing, I respect your opinion though either way. And I guess it is good you have love expectations so that the game can surprise you...or it could make it so that you don't enjoy it all because you are already down playing it and have decided that it will eb bad(compared to 1&2). It is a double edged sword but either way I say give the game a try and afterwards make all those conclusions...once it comes out of course lol!

Well I guess I come of as a bit Infamous bashing here.

To make it clear I love infamous. I loved it since I saw the first trailer of the very first game. It was mindblowing and awesome fun. Then I had very high expectations for Infamous 2. They were exceeded. The most fun I ever had in an open world game(yes even more than AC or SR4 , other open world franchises I adore). A big part of this was the electrical power. Something that had never been done before. I love my games unique. In the new Infamous these are traded in for generic fire power and generic energy power. There may be more but I can't judge something I haven't seen.

 Deslin might become something more than just a douche but that still doesn't make him a Cole. A much more relatable character in my opinion.

As for the city, I just don't think you can get more divers than a flooded New Orleans. I just can't see Seattle as such a colorful and varied city.

The trailers and gameplayvideos I saw for Infamous 1 and 2 made me excited and hyped and I was rewarded. The scenes for the new game did not and that makes me doubt the game.

Infamous SS is still my most anticipated game for 2014 by far but with the stuff I've seen so far it will have a hard time beating the first 2 games. And seeing how the previous games have only scored in the low 80s I have not much hope  for the reviews either. Sure they will probably be a bit higher but that's just because of the hype connected to the PS4. I don't think game critics will ever get how amazing this franchise is.
