Purkake Posted October 12, 2009 Posted October 12, 2009 That would be like breeding Batman with Aquaman. Bad idea dude!
alanschu Posted October 12, 2009 Posted October 12, 2009 (edited) A mountain being made out of a molehill. It's a CG trailer. I guess in the last 24 hours they've completely rewritten the game to play just like the CG trailer. Furthermore, I don't even know who made that trailer, so you can't say that BioWare should outsource it. BioWare did outsource the SWTOR trailer. But I guess that one is a bit too FF for people too? It's the same kind of deal with some crazy action, including a 1 on 1 fight similar to the beginning of Final Fantasy 8!! EDIT: Batman is cool, dark, awesome, and epic.

Amentep Posted October 12, 2009 Posted October 12, 2009 That would be like breeding Batman with Aquaman. Bad idea dude! That's the kind of mental imagine that you can't unsee. I cannot - yet I must. How do you calculate that? At what point on the graph do "must" and "cannot" meet? Yet I must - but I cannot! ~ Ro-Man

I said some of the combat looks stupid, like jumping ~30 feet into the air. Also, the SW:TOR trailer was pretty good, on par with some of Blizzard's stuff, this is not.

alanschu Posted October 12, 2009 Posted October 12, 2009 I said some of the combat looks stupid, like jumping ~30 feet into the air. By your own admission you're notoriously difficult to please. Also, the SW:TOR trailer was pretty good, on par with some of Blizzard's stuff, this is not. But you're quick to take this trailer and state the BioWare should outsource their trailers because they can't make good ones. I didn't see any credits for who made this trailer. Did you?

That should go without saying. Also, the SW:TOR trailer was pretty good, on par with some of Blizzard's stuff, this is not. But you're quick to take this trailer and state the BioWare should outsource their trailers because they can't make good ones. I didn't see any credits for who made this trailer. Did you? That's what I presumed, if that is not the case they need to go back to the TOR trailer people.
kirottu Posted October 12, 2009 Posted October 12, 2009 Only thing bothering me in that trailer was how everything died so ridiculously easy. Still, it is just CG. This post is not to be enjoyed, discussed, or referenced on company time.
Purkake Posted October 12, 2009 Posted October 12, 2009 In other news, isn't the character creation thingy going to be released tomorrow?

EDIT: Batman is cool, dark, awesome, and epic. By definition, it isn't epic. No big armies or saving the world from Mr Ultimate Evil. If you mean the internet kind of EPIC, then it is. Mostly.

Aristes Posted October 12, 2009 Posted October 12, 2009 I thought the trailer was cool. Second time I've had one sent my way. Actually, the HD I saw from the link here. Anyhow, I liked the flying elf bow chic or whatever. That was cool. Yeah, it's not going to win an academy award, but I don't want filet mignon every night. A good juicy hamburger works just fine for me too.
Pidesco Posted October 12, 2009 Posted October 12, 2009 If playing a mage really was like that it would be awesome. Imagine a DMC type game where you could pull those kinds of moves.

J.E. Sawyer Posted October 13, 2009 Posted October 13, 2009 If playing a mage really was like that it would be awesome. Imagine a DMC type game where you could pull those kinds of moves. Anything done in the DA trailer is basically yawnfest on the DMC scale. Dante uses enemies as skateboards, attacks people with an electric guitar that summons bats, and shoots enemies' bullets in mid-air. The only thing that can top DMC nuttiness is Clover-level nuttiness -- e.g. God Hand, Bayonetta. twitter tyme

Azure79 Posted October 13, 2009 Posted October 13, 2009 I liked the trailer. My question is why do dragons always give up their air superiority, strategic view and speed advantage in the air to land on the ground to be distracted and attacked from the flanks? If I was a dragon I would just fly around and breath fire on everything that moved.
Maria Caliban Posted October 13, 2009 Posted October 13, 2009 Heroes are guys in full plate with swords. Monsters have to act stupid so guys in full plate can attack them with their swords.

Purkake Posted October 13, 2009 Posted October 13, 2009 A dragon that doesn't breath fire is a dragon in name only!

Masterfade Posted October 13, 2009 Posted October 13, 2009 Is the red-haired archer girl a in-game NPC or just a random character conjured up by the CGI team? She kinda reminds me of Catti-brie. As for dragons-always-land-on-the-ground-to-be-killed, I think the answer could be "why you can't see the sky above your head in most CRPGs?"
