| HyrulianScrolls said: It looks gorgeous (even off screen crappy vid quality), but yeah that world was soooo empty! Crazy huge, but empty. Kinda hope they still have a long ways to go, but they're insisting next year so... I for one love the horse mechanics though. Like others have said, you're still controlling its direction, you just don't have to steer it going straight. And that opens up a world of possibility for much more satisfying horseback combat. Let's just hope they take advantage of that. |
Like I said in another thread, I think that most of the emptiness is intentional for the demonstration. Devs do this, restructuring level layoutss and disabling enemies to control demonstrations. They wanted to focus on the world map and controls and travel here I think, so disabling most of the enemies (rather simple to do actually) makes that easier. Bethesda did this as well when they demoed Skyrim: several areas where enemies appear in the final game, they were disabled, and the dungeon they explored emptied out onto the tundra, which isn't where that dungeon empties out in the game. They did that to streamline the progression so that they could show what they wanted at the time. No reason to doubt that's being done here, imo.
