The town scenes and other world scenes look great but those battle scenes are just pathetic.

Especially that one in the dark place where they're fighting what looks like a slime.  I have no idea why they would even release that!

Of course they do. But this game is quite ambitious for Gust.

Take a look at their last effort.

 

This is a game for the fans.

There's nothing wrong at all with that screenshot, that one is fantastic.

I would take beautifully painted 2D backgrounds over barren 3D spaces any day.

It's just their first foray into 3D. (About 10 years late)

 

It doesn't really matter that it's their first attempt at 3D, it's still bad.  I hope for their sake that it isn't near final because they are jsut really bad especially when looking at everything else that is so good.

And even assuming those aren't final, why show them when they look so bad?

 

i hope you can do better job at that, having the budget they have. which is doubt ful.

 

Off topic, but that is by far one of most common and most retarded arguments people use.

Person A: x isn't very good.

Person B: well I'd like to see you do better.  fuhuhuhuh

For instance, I call Tony Romo, the Dallas Cowboys quarterbag, a terribly quarterback and then some moron comes back with "well I'd like to you do a better job, HA!"  Well no shit sherlock, I'm not a quarterback so I can't do a fucking better job but I'm also not the one getting paid.

But wait, I am a level designer, and while I can't show you any of my current work, I can show you work that I did as a student:

 

It's no RPG and it's far from perfect, but hey, at least I have stuff going on in the picture and I actually populated the environment.

So there you go, I did better smartass.  :-p

 

i knew you were one, but then why you are so harsh for such a small studio!, it's their first 3d game, and it not even in final stages of development yet.

and they went for cellshaded. not realistic as u did-

First day import for me~ Though it is very likely to be here in the state fairly quickly with NISA's track record lol...

Your pictures are great but I have to say one thing. They have to also do storyline and gameplay as well.

Plus they may not be as talented as you :P



FootballFan - "GT has never been bigger than Halo. Now do a comparison between the two attach ratios and watch GT get stomped by Halo. Reach will sell 5 million more than GT5. Quote me on it."

by the way... I am just curious... is Atelier the longest running Sony Exclusive RPG?? Are there Atelier game for other platforms? O_O



Whoa, twesterm's really bringing the smackdown on this thread, showing off his l33t sk1llz.

There are two for the DS. Database has others too, but out of Japan I think it's been exclusively PS titles that have been released.

All those pictures have storyline and gameplay associated with them, though on a smaller scale since they were student projects and most of those were done in less than a week (except for the black and white one and the Quake 4 one with the two dead guys).

The story of each of those pictures that you can infer from the picture alone:

  • Pic 1: You're stranded on a derelict space ship that the Strogg have ransacked (since it is the Quale 4 universe).  You're probably the only one alive and there are probably Strogg roaming about the ship.
  • Pic 2: You are in the Strogg Putrification Plant and come to a series of belts and machines.  You see a door below you that might be an exit and the only way to reach that exit looks like is to ride these belts and hope the Strogg don't catch you while on them.
  • Pic 3: You're in some sort of underground ancient temple.  Doesn't really have a story since it's a multiplayer only map, but it does provide plenty of setting and atmosphere.
  • Pic 4: You're in a Russian mansion trying to get to what is being kept in the cage on the other side of the room but you have to find a way past the lasers to get to it.

Just because something isn't an RPG doesn't mean it doesn't have story, setting, and atmosphere.

Hey, I also said the other stuff was fantastic.  Sure, it can still use work but I'm still assuming there's plenty of time to work on it.

My main gripe is that those battle screens are just bad and I have no idea why you would release those to the public looking that bad. 

There's showing pics that show potential and show that you're still working on the game and then there's showing pics that just turn people off to the game no matter what stage it's in.
