Keyrock Posted August 13, 2014 Share Posted August 13, 2014 (edited) IGN has 4 minutes of off-screen gameplay from Gamescom up. I can't find it on youtube yet, so you'll have to watch it through their page: http://www.ign.com/videos/2014/08/13/4-minutes-ofshadow-realms-gameplay-gamescom-2014 Obviously, that's a small snippet and there's gotta be more to the game than that, but that looks boring as hell.

kirottu Posted August 13, 2014 Share Posted August 13, 2014 Yeah, I stopped watching after 2 minutes out of boredom. It looked like mediocre copy of diablo with much worse camera.

Keyrock Posted August 13, 2014 Share Posted August 13, 2014 To me it looks like a MMO, and not a good one, with the kill a bunch of mobs in a room, lift the barrier, kill a bunch of mobs in a room, lift the barrier, lather, rinse repeat combat. Supposedly it's not a MMO, but 4 vs. 1 online co-op.

Amentep Posted August 13, 2014 Share Posted August 13, 2014 I dunno, I'll need to see more. As an action RPG fan, that footage doesn't win me over or repulse me. 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 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Keyrock Posted August 13, 2014 Share Posted August 13, 2014 Here's the same video on youtube, so now folks can watch it embedded here, and not have to go to IGN: RFK Jr 2024 "Any organization created out of fear must create fear to survive." - Bill Hicks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kgambit Posted August 13, 2014 Share Posted August 13, 2014 I dunno, I'll need to see more. As an action RPG fan, that footage doesn't win me over or repulse me. I'm underwhelmed. It's still early but if this is indeed a co-op then I'm not interested. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blarghagh Posted August 13, 2014 Share Posted August 13, 2014 It being a co-op is the only way it would interest me. Too bad, the trailers looked interesting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mute688 Posted August 13, 2014 Share Posted August 13, 2014 So Bioware have solved the enemies dropping from the sky problem by having them.....pop out of the ground? No interest generated here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GreyFox Posted August 13, 2014 Share Posted August 13, 2014 Yeah, I stopped watching after 2 minutes out of boredom. It looked like mediocre copy of diablo with much worse camera. At least you made it to 2 minutes! I can honestly say I have no idea wtf is going on anymore the only thing that amazed me was just how far away that apple is from the tree.

It's still early but if this is indeed a co-op then I'm not interested. It depends on the type of co-op. I'm out of anything that involved an constant, easy internet connection.

Elerond Posted August 13, 2014 Share Posted August 13, 2014 Bonus points for showing PC controls, but it seems to be some sort online multiplayer hack&slash ARPG combination, so it is possibility that they will not release it on consoles. As game it don't seem such that interest me as I am not big fan of multiplayer only games. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hurlshort Posted August 13, 2014 Share Posted August 13, 2014 Honestly I don't really buy Bioware games for the combat, so this does nothing good or bad for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
archangel979 Posted August 13, 2014 Share Posted August 13, 2014 (edited) At the end there is "You must gather your party before venturing forth" This does not look a game I would play, but it will certainly have its crowd, probably people that liked DDO a lot.

ShadySands Posted August 13, 2014 Author Share Posted August 13, 2014 I haven't had a chance to see the video but if I can't play it by myself (mmo is fine but co-op only is not) then I'm no longer interested.

Hurlshort Posted August 14, 2014 Share Posted August 14, 2014 Honestly that sounds like a minigame, rather than the premise for a full title. Like some sort of multiplayer component they would tack onto Mass Effect. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Humanoid Posted August 14, 2014 Share Posted August 14, 2014 I'd say it sounds like a Wii U game, more specifically like all the 5 player multiplayer games in Nintendoland. L I E S T R O N GL I V E W R O N G Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
