ha ha ha, I love the dark tones of the trailer. It looks intense. :lol:

 

Too bad the quality is so bad its hard to see anything. :)

 

btw, those trees swaying in the wind is pretty kick arse!

It's got less quality than most short porn movie previews you can find on the net, and it barely shows anything other than shadows, some character models and vague one liners. But why it's only like, 4 megs or something so why not.

I thought it was a good presentation.

 

Remember, this is the first look.

 

There have already been beautiful screenshots (notably of a big red dragon in the US Xmas PC Gamer) so I was looking primarily at the animation, which appeared flawless, at least to my eyes (+2 for long sight, -1 for short sight after long periods of time).

And what's up with scary-factor? :luck:

 

Tormentness without the messy reading lolz.

There has to be a theme to any narrative, and spooky is probably the easiest to pull off successfully (cf comedy). Think Thief in NwN ...

I was quite unimpressed with the teaser.... Thought they show some role-playing and combat, instead I get some lame supposed-to-be-creepy snippets. Meh.

Overall I think it looks pretty promising, and I'm waiting to see the next teaser, which will hopefully have some combat scenes (which also, hopefully, won't be lame). :ermm:

The 'horror' factor was due to the fact it was made and shown around last halloween at the GoPlay event in france. This is just that video (with 6 to 12 month old footage) released to the public.

 

Dev quotes about it on the front page of nwn2news FYI :huh:

"I cannot profess to be a theologian; but it seems to me that Christians who believe in a super human Satan have got themselves into a logical impasse with regard to their own religion. For either God can not prevent the mischief of Satan, in which case he is not omnipotent; or else He could do so if he wished, but will not, in which case He is not benevolent. Fortunately, being a pagan witch, I am not called upon to solve this problem."

Ok, I just saw the teaser (last one in the world to see it, apparently) and I am now certain that someone at Obsidian Entertainment is a huge Gothic fan. I will not rest until I find out who this fan is!
