I'm wondering where the heck has all this hype came from the game. It looks like it is going to be a disaster. Most people at e3, didn't complain about the graphics, they complained about it having one of the worst gameplay in a videogame ever. The game is being hyped up as a 'diablo' game, because it has 4 player co-op. But diablo 2 is a point and click action game that was made 8 years ago. This game is a game which uses the joystiq, to kill enemies (like moving the weapon). It appears as if the enemies don't guard your attacks, at all, the enemies are brain dead, and gameplay looks repetitive, boring, and just plain old brain dead easy. The graphics look like a blend between the two GOW (gears of war and god of war) clone, with the worst enemy design ever made (I don't even have idea what to call these things, its, or whatever they look like). They look like an insect, and a robot mixed together. I still don't understand how this game is interesting, and how this game can score hgih.
Has too human shown anything impressive gameplay or graphcially?

[QUOTE="FrozenLiquid"][QUOTE="Meu2k7"]I don't think it looks like a UE3 game as of now. If it did, I'd be rolling my eyes like I did with Mass Effect, Turok, Turning Point etc. --------- Anyway I believe this game will deliver. It's Silicon Knights. They know what they're doing. And the last batch of previews from all the different developers have said this game looks pretty damn good -- a far cry from what was shown in 2006.What you mean that 20 second long strafing hack n slash scene? :lol: why so defensive?
This is not better looking that Gears or UT3, this is a typical looking UE3 game, just brighter with more coloured light filtering.
Infact Unreal Tournement 3 looks better, PC version at least.

If by by that you mean the typical grundge feel? This reminds me alot of Mass Effect, only somewhat applies the grundge to the surroundings but keepts the characters smooth, which is the BANE of most game designs.
Too much enphasis on Characters, not enough on the worlds, granted thats limited by any hardware, since rendering a world to the same design quality as the models takes alot, why games like Crysis chugs, even then it doesnt look near as good when you look at the foliage.
Quite frankly though I question a game thats been in development so long, Its not worth hyping until I can get a demo in my hands... theres just not enough to go by, considering the life span.
Yeah looking at the environments now they do have the feel of UE3 quite a bit. But I was looking at one of the statues that had similarities to that one in Gears of War. But the character models look much different. Baldur speaks for himself (Kinda looks like something out of a JRPG rather than testosterone fuelled UE3 models), but this screen is pretty cool.
I really like this pic because it instantly reminded me of the alien spaceship level in Crysis. I don't know what it is, but I think it may be the lighting on that monster. Rather than wow us with a monotonous bloom lighting that's the name of the game in most UE3 games, 
And here's a pic of Baldur. I must say he looks like one of the most nicely detailed protagonists I've seen yet. You can see the tattoo/face marks on his face that show where he 'lights up'. It really looks like it really was etched into him :? 
I guess you can question a game that's been in development for so long, but you also need to know the why it was so. And it seems to be due to a whole lot of exclusive partnerships and other projects that got in the way of the game.
