Forums - Gaming - Too Human, Big in Europe?

Too Human goes deep into Norse mythology and, since that is an integral part of European history, do you think that this will make Too Human more successful in Europe than it would have been otherwise?

Its my opinion (feel welcome to change it with facts or arguments) that Europeans prefer games that, when given the choice, have to do with European history, which is why they like castle-era rpg and action games, European based strategy games (think Total War), and the like more so than their American or Japanese counterparts.

No



If anything it should do well in scandinavia. Whether it translates into significantly increased sales in the rest of europe remains to be seen.



^its not big here either.



No.. you can't generalize Europe that easily...

Well I have to say after playing the demo 3 days ago, I thought it was really good.

The graphics werent amazing but they certainly werent poor. They range from just plain nice to sometimes being wow. It's one of those games for graphics you know? Lots of enemies on screen, and the battle system is very fluid.

I loved Diablo2, and this is like a more pronounced 3d version of Diablo with a different setting. The gameplay is definately top drawer and the story seems great. The RPG element is also a great welcome to the game.

If you dont like diablos kill loads of baddies and get loads of drops kinda gameplay you wont like it. But if you like Diablo you should love this game.

OT: Europeans are funny with games. Genearally sport, RPG's and shooters do well. So with it's RPGness it should do ok.

I concur.

I dont see how its much different than saying that Japanese prefer JRPGs, even though Europeans seem to be more open to other gametypes than the Japanese (from looking at sales of Western RPGs and Japanese RPGs in both places).

I hope you know, that there just living about 24 million people in Scandinavia, who could care about Norse mythology. It's not an integral part of European history.



Many people like it here but not that many. Europe has the best and most mix off games.
