In the gameplay videos they do the same combo's over and over again. They either knock someone in the air and shoot them or knock someone in the air and slam them to the ground.

I'll tell you why it sucks..... 1st of all, its not playable on the PS3.... secondly, you cannot play it on the Wii.... and the 3rd and greatest reason why it'll suck is because you can't play it on the PC.

But couldn't you say that about every WRPG?
Too Human is only half RPG. It supposedly has a deep combat system similar to Devil May Cry and Ninja Gaiden games. It's basically been described as DMC meets WoW by the developers.

I'd like to see the link for that, because I've been following the game pretty religiously and have never heard the combat described as a pure action game like DMC or Ninja Gaiden. It certainly has some characteristics of those games, but at the end of the day Too Human is a WRPG in the same vein as The Witcher and the Diablo titles rather than a pure action title.

too human's combat system is nothing like DMC or the NG series..which is why it's been treated so poorly.
and the developers NEVER compared the game to DMC and WOW.
I think it looks awesome, the like 1000 years it's been in development is really scary though:(-Sniper99-
But you have to consider the context of that development. While yes, Too Human has been in development for the past 10 years, the game was put on hold so Silicon Knights could focus on Eternal Darkness and MGS: Twin Snakes, so serious development didn't start until 2004 IIRC. It's not like Duke Nukem Forever where the development team has spent the better part of the past 10 years playing WoW and Everquest.

Twin Snakes and Eternal Darkness were both fantastic, a couple of my favorite games on the 'Cube last gen.
I think it will do fine... The vids I've seen recently show great promise and all that customizing sounds awesome. I think I'm willing to say 8.5-9.0 on this game... I don't hype offen but it looks really deep.

Exactly. It's not like Silicon Knights has been screwing around for the past 10 years.
I haven't seen any recent videos so I'm guessing my gripe w/ Too Human has probably been majorly improved, but I disliked how combat looked in those videos.

he said diablo and if he spent time working on this game instead of blabbing about it every 5 minutes it would have scored AAA, been out 2 years ago with the sequal ready for winter 08.
PBSnipes weren't you originally a skeptic of Too Human's awesomeness?

Nope, I've been riding the Too Human bandwagon ever since I did some quality research on the game. I suppose I was a little skeptical before seeing the 2nd developer diary (which was a life-changing experience :P), but I've always thought Too Human would turn out to be a quality title.
It just hasn't look that good in the videos I've seen. (I honestly don't remember with videos they were). Cutting the co op from 4 to 2 was a bit disappointing also. Also if it had local co op, I would definently get it.
Seriously, I can't even watch a full trailer of this game. I'm so bored even looking at screenshots of it. I don't know what it is about it. I love RPGs (both J and W), but this one does nothing for me. I don't have anything against it, I'm just not looking foward to it.
Ive never said it will flop or anything but im not hyped for it unless it has co-op offline if it does then im getting it, it reminds me of games like X-Men Legends and Marvel:UA and i love games like that with friends ever though their repetitive for some people

They certainly have compared it to both those games. You should check out some of the Developer Diary's as the comparisons are made in nearly every one, Not to mention the numerous comparisons to Diablo.
I don't see why you are surprised people think the game is going to flop or suck. It happens to every major/big titles that are exclusive to a platform.

You're actually trying to uncover reason behind the actions of fanboys?
The problem with Too Human is that you're on System Wars. Here, every game sucks until it is released, when it is either terrible because it flopped or overrated because it scored well.
Well, unless the game is Portal. Then it's awesome.

I really hope it doesn't. I have The Original Legacy of Kain and Eternal Darkness, I see the game as being a sleeper hit, but hopefully more. I have it reserved and am awaiting as long as it takes for them to do it right.
Then again, Free Radical did let me down recently.
I think the trolls are speculating because of their bad E3 showing 2 years ago, and Silicone's suing EPIC because of the Unreal Engine.
That being said, I have high hopes for Dennis Dyack and team.
Norse Mythology with a Scifi view with a Silicon Knights spin. based on how much I enjoyed the presentation and story of Eternal Darkness, I will enjoy the story in Too Human.
The combat is DMC meets Diablo. Alot of depth, but it isn't point and click combat. OR that garbage from Oblivion. It is a bit more fluid, looks generic, but the RPG elements, the skill system make it seem like it could be an addictive combat system in terms of customization.
The visuals look good, seriousaly I think it looks good.
Multiple cla-sses and COOP are never a bad thing.
So IMO it will be AA worthy when it releases. Do i expect it to turn the world upside down and completely change the face of gaming. No. But it will be a good game.

This game is gonna rock anyhow.
Any developer that tries to push themselves into helping define "the eighth art" has a game worthy of anticipation IMO.
FrozenLiquid
I know I was.
I'm one of those people who likes to know about what I'm bashing on, though, so, as I researched Too Human, I came to realize that it was not deserving of the bashing I was about to dish out, and, in fact, worthy of praise.
I dont bash games I dont play but IMO Too Human's gameplay looks very dull. I hate the fact that the sword action is done with the right thumbstick as oppossed to a button and the juggling and overall action looks very slow.
However I am very interested in the whole mythology concept behind Too Human. The game just looks very dull and unispired to me.

they never described the combat as "Deep." They described it as fast, and similar to DMC in terms of feel. Not depth.
