Looks pretty as all hell, but I still don't get what is supposed to make me want to play this instead of just watching someone else play it.

It's funny but I think the same thing about games where everyone has the same experience.  I mean, the lines are all going to be the same, the enemies are all going to spawn at the same points, and the world is going to be mostly static.  Games with linear 'levels' leave me especially cold.  A game where my play-through is going to be unique, though?  Give me that.  I like it when I can't watch a video that will be exactly like what I'm doing because that video doesn't exist.

Thats fair, however the joy in most games that I like isn't in watching other people do something, it is in doing something myself which is what I was getting at. While watching someone else would ruin part of the experience for me, the joy of Mario is actually completing the platforming challenges, the joy of Zelda is figuring out the puzzles and beating the bosses etc. I feel like with this game, theres nothing that makes me want to play. The combat doesn't look too great and theres not really a ton to find other than some pretty pictures while exploring. The experience is visual as opposed to tactile.
