Who gives a flying toss if the graphics are shit? Did you forget about the more important thing like um story and uh gameplay!?
This is just a wake up call to how easily we've been enticed by flashy things #deadlypremonition
The graphics look very last-gen, and the setting looks a lot like a Silent Hill game. Top that off with the uber Akira Yamaoka rip off score ... and it looks like we have a Silent Hill clone. I honestly thought this was for the PlayStation 2 there for a second. They could've at least made a better trailer for this. Yikes. #deadlypremonition
@d_r_e: Not suprising, since this game IS Rainy Woods, the Access game that was sent to dev hell for ripping off Lynch/Twin Peaks. New Publisher, New Name, New IP to look just a little too much like......same ugly ass game. It's Sad. #deadlypremonition
@d_r_e: They definitely should've waited until they were further in the development process. If that's how the game is gonna look (not to mention the horrendous glimpse of gameplay), then this game is going to have a hard time selling.
Did anyone else have a hard time believing this game is actually going to be scary? I know it was just a teaser but this has nothing on Dead Space. #deadlypremonition
So many critics and only from the first trailer. Is that what most people have to say, simply to criticize it at first glance. Jeez , people ask for new IP and when a trailer for a new IP comes out, with not even that much information , just a trailer with a couple of seconds of gameplay there are already people complaining. #deadlypremonition
@Gruntybreath: Thanks for mentioning that. I've decided not to watch it based on your comment. I like games like this and I hate it when they give it away in the trailer. #deadlypremonition
@Gruntybreath: OH, whoops, my bad. I totally thought you were serious. Now I feel silly. :) But yeah, I hate when suspense movies basically give it away in the trailer, about "who did it" or whatever. I'm always amazed that they do that. #deadlypremonition
Sora looks like a total badass with Cloud's Buster Sword...
And this is why JRPGs do not interest me anymore. What the hell happened to good character design? Godamn, the 16 bit era had better characters than most of the stuff thats come out in the last 15 years! #arcrisefantasia
I am so tired of Ignition entertainment poaching XSEED's licenses and doing SHITTY localizations.
I was looking forward to this game, but now it's going to the bottom of my list. I had to enjoy Muramasa IN SPITE of that horrible translation - and knowing damn well that I got that because they don't pay a translation staff of their own, they just swiped XSEED's first pass on the script and passed it off as "done".
Also, it is absolutely not true that XSEED "dropped" Muramasa. Ignition went to Marvelous, poached the license, and XSEED was forced to publicly announce they dropped the game so Ignition could claim they "saved" it.
Spread the word by the way - they won't admit it in public (Ignition nor XSEED due to legal issues), but anyone who knows what went down in the background absolutely despises Ignition for their horrible business practices. #arcrisefantasia
Now THAT is what I've been talking about. That looks beautiful. Not for a Wii game, but for a video game. Like I said, if the GC could look nice, the Wii certainly can too.
@Hey_Blinkon: Yeah, this has really impressed me. After seeing screenshots of Epic Mickey in GameInformer, I was pretty disappointed with the Wii, but these shots have turned me right around.
Granted, graphics aren't even half the battle. Some of the most visually impressive games have left me completely bored, and it seems to happen with increasing frequency these days. While I enjoyed Imageepoch's Luminous Arc, I often have a much softer spot for Tactical RPGs than traditional ones. #arcrisefantasia
@Xagest: I totally got the "this is actually kingdom hearts in disguise" feeling when i saw the character. i had to do a double take at the weapon as well. #arcrisefantasia
@LllusionX Mailed the Fission: hay, when carrying something that big, the only realistic way to do it is on your back or sholder. not that jrpgs are known for realisim #arcrisefantasia
Is this by the same people who did Eternal Sonata? The font and overall status display on the combat screens looks very familiar. For me, that's a turn-off. Your mileage may vary.

But then, not every game has to be AAA grade, and I could do with a good Minding F-ing Survival Horror... #deadlypremonition

Marketing 101. If they can't get that right, chances are they didn't get much of the game right. #deadlypremonition
