I... How can you guys watch this and your initial reaction is "meh, shitty rain and weird facial animations"?


That was fucking fantastic.

Because the faces look bad. KZSF was the it game when it cam to next-gen visuals but that rain and those faces really let me down. lol

Seriously, those faces and their animations stick out like a sore thumb. Especially after watching that Ryse trailer.

Hmm, intrigued at how the story might unfold.
There are hints that we might see things from the Helghan perspective for a change, yet as before they are being painted as "evil" by the ISA.
I really hope that things finally get turned upside down and the ISA scum are exposed as being the real bad guys after all. It certainly would shake up the series quite a bit and make the story a heck of a lot more interesting.
So tired of the "yes sir! no sir! we are the heroes that must protect Vekta and destroy the demons that are the Helghan" formulaic drivel.

Probably not going to happen though, but at least there is a bit of hope...
 
Yes fkn please. This seems to have some good story to it besides just slaughter the bad guys and survive. My body and my soul are ready.
 
Faces look fine overall to me, just lit a little weirdly. At least the visuals are consistent across the assets. Looks like a next gen version of Mercenary. Awesome.

This looks fantastic (aside from the assumption by the trailer's director that explosions are more important that characters), and I hope the story gets the focus it deserves. After a surprising successful pace for the campaign and storytelling in Mercenary, I have high hopes for this game. Obviously the tech is beautiful, and while I fear we may end up with some "rubber mask" gifs highlighting odd moments in facial animations, the detail is there and this team knows its craft.

Great googly-moogly this game looks fun.
 
Not gonna watch as I went and preordered the game just today. Hope its good!

Damn today has been good for story/launch trailers thus far :)

That wasn't an exciting trailer, but I'll take it over nothing. That rain is still the same lol, also some bad facial animations there.

Are you a professional mo-cap artist or animator? If not STFU, it's better than most games out there.

Best Animations we've seen for facial are going to be from naughty dog, as in ones not motion captured. Beyond:Two Souls is almost 100% Mo-capped performance. There' probably curve editing going on for timings, because game rendering isn't the same as film.

The scene at the end with I would guess is your young father, looked good, so did the Girl.

Not the best I'll admit, but I can tell these likeness's are changed in the animation department.


I'll admit I think Ryse animations for facial look fairly impressive comapred to this.

But it's not shit.
