We are already sold on that.
The second cutscene is good, and the stories looks to be on the good side!
I was genuinely curious to see the number of machines they could make and it seems like 26 which is a nice number.

The art direction, style and setting are amazing. The music sounds really nice too. Dialog and voices could be better, but overall the game looks like I could easily just enjoy being in the world. Keeping my pre-order for sure. It does have some FarCry in it, but I loved FarCry 4 and Primal, so I'm good with that.
I can't wait to see how this looks on the PS4 Pro.

Pretty much.

Definitely not an STD, as I'm a pure.
Yep. And there's a lot of them and they all seem to have major roles.
Don't you know? You always focus on the negative. Can't wait to play this. Should be fun.

I wonder how long it will take for GG to react to this thread. I think the cut scenes are pretty damn unpolished compared to the game itself, which is mind boggling to me.
Don't know what I expected from GG when it comes to writing and voice acting, but they still manage to disappoint. Apart from that the game looks really good. Like Tomb Raider meets Far Cry. The visuals are the real draw for me though. This is going to look absolutely stunning on my Pro/4K TV.

Hopefully it's a case of "gameplay so good it trumps the poor story/writing" because man, that writing and cutscene work isn't doing it for me.
Everything else looks great though.

The moment to moment gameplay looks second to none. It looks so fluid and fun to control. Visually, looks stunning. I just can't wait for this.
that one is awful indeed, this one tho, is way better

VA doesn't even bother me that much, it's the really bad writing of that cutscene that bothers me.
This is just one of three or four maps, right? right?
/spoiled by The Witcher 3
jokes aside; I really hope it turns out fun

Yeah still not feeling it at all.
Isn't that cutscene problem pretty common for RPGs as a whole? You can't do detailed facial animation work when there are so many character scenes and dialog. Not that I'm HAPPY with it, but I thought it was pretty par for the course in this genre.
These videos got me really hyped though. I feel a lot more confident in how much of an "RPG" it is, and the visuals are just gorgeous.

Ehm, it doesn't really do anything that wasn't there before ?
Oh boy.
Conversations in general looks kinda ehh, guess I'm used to Naughty Dog animations. I can deal with no-name NPC being worse but even Aloy looks bad.
that's.....not much better

Um... there are some great open world games out there already.
And we only had few gameplay videos of this game.
You know this will be super easy. People were already complaining you had to be competent enough to stay alive until next checkpoint.
The sales they will need from this type of game mean nobody will be left out. Will be super easy most likely. Hope that's not the case and you need some skill but not holding breath.
Hope they get the audiences they are searching for. Wish them well, must be nice to take break from KZ.

Watching people play who don't have a clue their first time through is pointless. They don't give you any indication how to play. They don't know how to use the tools, weapons ect... I would love to see someone play the game who has an understading on how to defeat the enemy in different ways, showcase the on the fly weapon wheel. That 33 minute video was nothing more than a novice with no clue.
I don't give a fuck about cut scenes never have and never will, half the time I'm listening and not watching.

Eh, I think I was a bit harsh on the writing. It's really hit or miss. Some of it is quite good actually.

Good God that cut-scene. Worst fears realised.
Yeah seems pretty standard affair for open world side quest NPC stuff. leagues better than fallout though.

I think the stories told in this video are good, might no be the best writen or acted but they were interesting to me. Good stuff.
Acting varies from terrible to good so I think it depends on the type of side quest or main quest.
Many of us here are too focused on that and we jump at the very first little thing that sounds, reads, or looks off but if I think of my worst fears I think I feel actually great now, there looks to be elaborated quests here.

Sorry. I'm not allowed to be excited.
"Looks like far cry. ubisoft game. Why releasing next to that masterpiece Zelda game of forever yada yada yada.
I hope I covered every concern
i am not a expert but i think it might be storage issue, no open world with ton of characters has good facial animation same with ME:A. For example non-streamed gameplay animations are easily 500MB on current gen consoles. Facial animation with blendshapes consumes lot of memory i assume.
