Furthermore the GI article describes huge metroidvania-like levels. That information trump's whatever you'd see in this video.
It doesn't look that bad to me, and the tone of dialogue and given who the writer and director is, suggests the larger picture of the game will deliver I think. It had a somewhat saturday morning cartoon sort of tone which fits in neatly with the fact that the scenario writer is from the Clone Wars show. It was just a sparse demo. Even if the game is ultimately a little monotonous in gameplay I expect a decent adventure from it, better than Tomb Raider Reboot because Crystal Dynamics did not grasp making a game with a writer and frankly, it just wasn't well sewn together. To me it looks like this will be.
But the GI article paints a completely different picture, including Metroidvania style huge open levels.
agreed, but we live in the age of video, way more people will see the footage, than read the article.
I'm not talking about the demo. Which only showed off 13 mins of a level.
Huh? The Game Informer article is written by a journalist who literally played the game for 30 minutes (later than the video in game). It's not marketing material written by EA. (Although obviously it's going to be positive to incentivise people to keep buying magazines and getting hype.)
The GI article describes non linear levels and exploration.
Yeah I need that Metal Gear Rising style slicing action.
And you'll have to excuse me from giving a solid response when you dodge the core point of my post. Which is that watching isn't the same as playing. This has been shown time and time again.
I never miss the opportunity to dunk on misinformed posts about game engines. Please read the following words
Actually it was outstanding in just about every way, especially the visceral satisfaction of slicey dicey combat and environment interaction.
It just feels like people have goldfish memories or, maybe worse, can't read. The GI article literally released in the last couple of hours describes over 30 minutes of gameplay which sounds precisely what everyone here was clearly hankering for. But no one wants to read, so it's ignored.
I'm glad I don't live in your world, damn. I thought it was thrilling from start to finish. I played it many times.
They actually had hands on time with the game... How about go read the article?
If true I hope they show the more interesting parts of the game during E3 then.
Ahahaha, my god! But it looks all the same! Can't you see FIFA in it?
It is true for FS.
I never played it, I just once saw a 3 minute gameplay trailer and just dismissed it as bland, boring, meh and underwhelming without giving it a proper chance.
