I see and agree about them overcomparing it to other games, as you pointed out other games do better at certain things because that's the actual genre they belong to and not a FPS. However the Heavenly Sword one is completely moot. It has horrendous AI just like every hack and slash. Stupid enemies that are just slashing fodder for your sword and stand around waiting to be hit. Reach has fully calculating independent AI with no set scripted paths and the abilities to take cover and launch endless different strategies such as baiting and flanking maneuvers. In fact its so advance at such a large scale that if 5 or more Jackels are in combat together they will band together and form a phalanx with their shields to cover other to fire over them. That's some damn impressive AI and Bungie is well know for their AI capabilities. |
With 60 AI on the screen this will serious limit the AI in any game. Total War series has hundreds of men yet there are more simplified by working in groups.
