Gameplay looks damn fun.
But the character, and his $15 beats headphone knockoff bought from Walgreens, along with the music, forget it.

The game looks visually appealing and a lot of the gameplay mechanics looked ripped straight from Monster Hunter, Freedom Wars, and Soul Sacrifice. The characters design reminds me of new Dante from Dmc. And just.. Interesting.
But.. I don't know, the gameplay looks a lot duller then what I was expecting. And the animation looks very cheap and not well done. (Granted this is Alpha...)
I was very excited for this game, making this and Sunset Overdrive the only reason why I would get the Xbox One. But so far I'm not too impressed with what I saw. It looked like a game ridden with a bunch of cool mechanics of other games that are poorly executed and a pretty package. There isn't really much going on with it. It looks like it lacks substance, I just can't put my finger on it.
I'm really interested to see the reviews for this game, I don't know why but I think it might flop. I really do hope it succeeds though.

Game looks fucking stellar visually and the gameplay will probably ramp up over time so I'm not worried there.

This looks pretty fucking awesome. It's already showing us big boss battles, powers, transformations, ranged and close combat. Good sense of style too.
I honestly don't understand some people's "dudebro" obsession. Alpha bashing has to stop. Some people are extroverted, friendly and enjoy life. There are dozens of us!

I need to stop looking at this thread. I'm far too hyped for this game. It has dragons. Dragons! Ahhhh. Guys, I completed and enjoyed (that's right, I said it) Lair twice (motion controls and analog stick patch). That's how much I love games with dragons. Especially games where you can ride them. Dammit, now I want a sequel to Lair. Someone help.

This has got to be the best visual presentation I've seen of Platinum games yet. But that frame-rate is something they have to really resolve by next holiday. Makes me wonder how much budget has been placed to this title.

Final Fantasy meets Monster Hunter meets Souls meets The Last Guardian meets Xenoblade meets Uncharted(ish dialogue) and if you can ride the beast perhaps even vibes of Panzer Dragoon.
The fuck. How can one game have so many feels.

The only problem I have with the main character is how focus group designed it seems. Used to Kamiya's off-the-wall characters, he seems quite bland and generic. I'm not sure why people peg him as a jerk, other than the visual similarity to Donte; hell, he's better mannered than the original Dante or Bayonetta.
Also, considering Kamiya's love for western action movies, I can't shake this feeling that he fell in love with How to Train Your Dragon and this is the result. Which considering how I love it myself, is pretty cool.
To be fair UI is usually the very last thing to be touched up, they probably won't look anything like that in the final game.

Kamiya said at the beginning, on foot or on the back of a dragon.
Give me my Dragon gameplay Platinum, PUT IT IN MY VEINS.

On top of the dragon dating sim part, yeah, probably.

What if it's not actually all those things meeting and is just a game designer making a game they want to make
Looks like it would be fun to play, but I'd much rather have a mode where you play as the dragon making sarcastic quips at the dumb kid and tearing things up.
The main character needs a mute option, along with some other radio stations for his incongruous headphones. I'd totally listen to classical or kpop or anything other than bad electronica. He's terribly offputting from the little they've shown so far.

I really liked what I saw, the dragon/monster design is really cool, as are the environments. Combat looked a little stiff, but it's Platinum so I've got faith.
The protag looks like an utter douche, which I don't mind too much. At least he wears his ridiculousness on his sleeve. It's stupid, in a somewhat good way. I would have loved a character creator or female option.
It looked fun, and that's the important bit.

Wouldn't Dante be everything you dislike about Dante made into one?
