No wonder why I can't play it on HD, is Gametrailers it has one the most horrid video players on the internet.

Thanks a lot ! That's much better.

The atmosphere of the game is fabulous. It's both fascinating and eerie. I love it. If the gameplay and story/writing are good, it could turn out to be a great game.

So far I like what I know and see.

thanks...

it looks a lot like Tomb Raider.. if you remove the sword and the eerie parts. i'm talking about the walking part. i loved Heavenly Sword. I'll keep an eye on this game...

[Blasphemy]

I cannot wait until this game comes out! Heavenly Sword was one of my favorite games from last generation!

And yeah hopefully the combat is more fluid in the games final form.

[fermcr]

Gameplay looks absolute crap. Don't like the closeness of the camera and don't like character movements.

[NicSage]

Very odd. Not what I was expecting, but intrigued none the less.

[slate91]

This games looks really unique. I was a huge fan of heavenly sword back when ps3 first launched. I like the new camera angle

[KingKionic]

Its smart how close up the camera is.

Makes the fighting pretty intense. Seems more believable then the for honor game.

In terms of the fighting here it looks nice.

[Malphite]

I have to disagree. The close up really bothers me. and the combat looks like it needs a lot of work imo. I really like the atmosphere though.

[I_am_Batman]

Yeah I don't like the combat either. Hope they can make it more fluid. It doesn't need to be like DmC or Heavenly Sword but this looks really clunky so far.

[OB1Biker]

Yea it needs a lot of work and they dont hide its very early gameplay.
Watching a few times I really like it. Its a different approach that makes it all the more interesting IMO
Only the finished game will tell how well it plays.

[bjmartynhak]

I agree with your disagreement.

I liked the first combat... but then it is exactly the same for the second. It gets too repetitive.

And also, the way it is, it limits your movements and 1 vs. 2 combats.

[Sevir]

I like that they've made the combat visceral and intense by bringing the camera over the shoulder. It feels grounded and weighted.

[brando008]

Looks great!

[PyroPotatoe]

The action looks very interesting, i love it when games venture out on new experiences like that. Hopefully it lives up to they hype

[Bathyj]

I'm not sure about the combat or the camera, need to see more.

But the atmosphere, graphics and especially the sound are all fantastic. Looks like it will an entertaining spiral into madness.

[Maldread]

Yeah, same here. The combat seems a bit clunky, but the rest of the game has a great creepy vibe, that i really like. Hope they can pull it off.

[Maldread]

Double post for some reason. Sorry.

[thricetold]

I dunno, something is really off about the combat and the closeness of the camera. My excitement has dwindled a bit to be honest.

[Master-H]

Looks unique and spooky, but the camera is weird.

[InTheLab]

The atmosphere and graphics look good but that combat. The animations look really bad and the combat itself looks even worse!

Then again, this developer is known for mediocre combat but great stories and characters (DMC excluded).
