[QUOTE="Ravenshout"]You should know that this is not Blizzard quality. NO ONE F*CKING CARES. A lot people out there care. I will create a thread comparing this trailer to the any new CG trailers released during gamescom 2013.[QUOTE="NaveedLife"]In terms of everything. My bro watched it and said "damn, even I want to play this", which is surprising given his lack of interest in singleplayer games.

The story is done and buried, as is Illidian's story. What a wasted potential that was.It would be cool to get another Lich King expansion, the new lich king (Bolvar).

In terms of what? Animation? Detail? The D3 expansion cinematic will blow it away visually.In terms of everything.

Holy hell that was one of the best cinematics I have ever seen.

The Dark Below implies a place, or a new continent, not necessarily the tone.[QUOTE="Ravenshout"]

So 'The Dark Below' is a WoW expansion?
I really hope not. I loved Mists of Pandaria and the lighter themes of the expansion, I really don't think a cartoony game like WoW suits a dark and gritty expansion.

If it is a place, doesn't it suggest that, by default, it will have a dark tone of some sort?
It most probably refer to the realm of Queen Ashara, the former queen of the Elves. She and her kin (the highborne) were twisted by abuse of magic. When they and their demonic ally were defeated, their city sunk into the deep along with their twisted forms.Now I can't relate darkness, pure, evil, satanic darkness with undersea darkness. I just couldn't.

Nice visual is kind of an obsolete statement about a CGI trailer these days. What CGI trailer doesn't have nice visual? Isn't that the main purpose of one?I don´t get this trailer. Geralt was always a grey character, an anti hero. He doesn´t save people for nothing. He just hunts monsters for money and tries to stay off politics.
Why would he save a woman he doesn´t know. I know the scene is tough to look. But this is Middle Ages. The justice wasn´t pretty back then. Will developers will politecorrect this game, introducing western liberal values into a pseudo-history background that shouldn´t have them.
What if she ´s a real murderer and deserves to die. Why interchanging one life for three is a good trade, especially without even knowing the background story of that hanging.
So let me understand this:
Geralt collects his reward, then kills his former employers in order to save a convicted to death murderer. But as she´s a woman, we automatically assume she´s innocent ?
If he walked away, that would be much more interesing twist than a typical hero-to-the-rescue-of-the-maid-in-trouble bullshit.
Conclusion: nice visuals, absurd story and atypical behavior of Geralt of Rivia.

Bad ass in terms of what? Direction? No way. Narrative? It doesn't tell much. Visual? Well, it looks good, but too drab. Animation? Mediocre.[QUOTE="Ravenshout"]

Trailer was fvcking badass. Good to see Geralt move extremely fast like a Witcher is supposed to and not the slow ass tank that he was in TW2

Music? Yes, Badass.
yeah yeah yeah we've talked about your excessive admiration for CG before. No one cares
A lot of people care. You certainly care. You exaggerate every CGI for the games that you are hyped with. I've been observing this pattern among few gamespotters since the Cyberpunk teaser. Also, Platid Image did this piece, not the developer. So credits to them.It doesn't look as good as modern trailers should and the animation is not fluid.
My reaction after the trailer.
