So far every preview I have read sounds like Too Human is a different kind of game then people are used to. From the controls to the story, to the total package. I for one am looking for something different when it comes to consoles because I am tired of the same old. I will be picking up the game and running through all of the classes. Not to mention if the game is not for casuals the community for it on Xbox Live will actually be good.

Thank you SK for not just making another cookie cutter game.

Agreed! They took a lot of risk in making it different, and, to me, it seems to have paid off.

Yay! First Too Human post above 200!

Lets be honest here this game looks like trash. It dont matter if its been 10yrs, 5yrs, or 3yrs in development for SK to release this game it this stage (sub-par graphics, 2 instead of 4 player coop, cliffhanger story and stiff animation) yes i know it has not released yet but common delay it for a winter release. This was one of the games i was hyped about on a system that i dislike, but you all thinking it will be fun are just going to be let down. I suggest you TH fans to atleast pre-order a rental lol last one was a joke just had to bring smiles to the clowns oops frowns sorry.

[QUOTE="lawlessx"]

anybody remember when reviews of mass effect were givin and people said the game could be finished in 12 hours?...most ended up finishing the game in 20-30 hours :?

i say lets wait untill the game is finally released

Yeah...Sure, you can beat most RPGs rather quickly, but why would you? You should explore, get good equipment, level up, etc. before you take on that nasty final boss.

not really "most"...most RPGs (especially JRPGs) are 20 hours and upwards (in terms of main storyline).

I myself like to beat the final boss as quickly as possible. The last boss would would become a cakewalk by then if you postpone the fight and opt to get the "great" equipments. And we all know that easy bosses destroy the epicness of the battle so i try to avoid those cases. I do the sidequests after finishing off the final boss (if the game is worthy of the extra time) as well.

It may have looked bad in 2006, and we all know what they say about first impressions...

But the game has come a long way since then and, in my opinion, come a long way-it's combat is now decent, its animations are more than passable, its story, though it has a cliffhanger, is said to be well-told, and the RPG mechanics, according to Gamespy, are pretty damn close to top-notch.

Most WRPG's(like Too Human) have a short main story but tons of replayability.

This was already discussed in this thread.

Thats the thing since the 06 trailers i expected big changes. The only changes i have seen is a better camera, better frame-rate, better customization and the omg loot. Customization and loot are big for me i will give you that sounds to be better then diablo's but is that enough and is it enough for SK to take that long on a game? I did forget they did go through legal issues with Epic maybe that took most of there time i am just saying... took a long time.

I have read enough Previews and seen enough Video Previews, some by the devs themselves, who have ALL stated that if you CHOOSE to rush through it, you can in a little over 10, however, if you take advanrage of ALL that the game has to offer, which most who like this kind of game do anyways, it will be WELL over that, more into the 40's or 50's....just like Fable was.

Lame.

The probably broke up a 30 hr game to 3 parts so they can call a trilogy.

Again lame.

Even if the combat is crap, the loot mechanics'll be enough. I didn't play Diablo 2 for the combat :)

The combat, though, is looking to be better than crap. Sue, its no DMC, but its surprisingly deep (see Gamespy's preview).

Ah yes, because the game hasn't undergone any platform changes or genre changes since then. Production stopped for this game in early 2000's. Then in 2005 it started up again, pretty much everything changed from the original game except for the Universe and the name.

I like how people blindly bash these games making themself look like a fool with wrong information.

Listen you, I have been against Too Human since the "06 trailer and I can see to defence between the game than and now. I'm for it now after seeing it in GDC '08. IT'S NOT AN ACTION GAME LIKE DMC OR NG, IT'S AN ACTION RPG. The animation is not going to that degree it like diablo. Before casting judgement wait for the demo.

SK better get this right or there will be no money from MS for sequels. Can't believe they sunk $100 million into this.

Sounds like his major complaint was he had problem getting used to the controls, which has been stated that one needs to get use to.

Other previews have stated that this game is not for everyone, it will defiantly be a love/hate game.
