I'm impressed. It doesn't share the art-farm-like level design that kills so many RPG's for me, it has brutal combat, awesome monster designs, and a really neat mage class. Keepin' my eye on this one.

I find it absolutely crazy that a game with what looks to be 3 permenant sidekicks doesnt have at LEAST 2 player co-op. 4player co-op would have been even better. A skyrim style RPG where you can play alongside your friends...who wouldnt want that?

It looks very interesting, but combat is important to me as usual so I have to try out the demo.
Nice epic battles though, and very good music too.

It looks like it stomps all over Amalur.. just sayin'.

The Witcher still suffers from some pretty claustrophobic level design too (the first did, perhaps they opened the second up some). I do wish this were coming to PC, but I may just pick up the 360 version.

Thats quite obvious, neat hit detection, great combat animations, better art style, bigger scope, truly open world, better graphics, etc....

Anyway this looks great and seems to be very fun but that pop in is just insane, I don't know if I can deal with it.

Uruk is telling me that they're asking for PC players to beg for it, just like Dark Souls did. I guess there's a good chance we'll see a Windows version too then.

Doesn't look good to me, don't get the hype. Pretty dull visuals/art design, ugly interface, mediocre combat, and an uninspiring world.

The only thing that looks remotely cool to me is being able to climb on to massive enemies... but that's it.

I also agree with Korn about co-op - crazy that it wasn't included, given the pawn system they have in place.

"Right now, nothing's off the table yet," admits Kobayashi. "But if the PC users out there really are vocal about having this game, then we can definitely consider it."
Seems like it might come. We'll see. Either way can't wait for the console demos, it shouldn't take too long now.

Sounds good.. I'm plenty busy anyway. It'll be a while before I have time for this game :)

After watching a bunch of videos (thanks Uruk!) I don't get this position at all. The game looks so much better than the majority of last years RPG's. Better art direction (than Skyrim or Amalur for example), better combat than Skyrim for certain, and a completely open world that stomps all over the little cages that other games would put you in. The nighttime gameplay looks friggin' awesome too. It adds a bit of survival horror flair to the whole thing.

Well the art direction is purely subjective and, to me, it just looks generic and bland (I watched the first 30 mins of the game video that Uruk posted). As for the combat, I think it looks pretty standard and pretty clunky. I like that you can climb on enemies now though.

I don't really know enough about the world structure to comment on that aspect.

You should watch the first video i posted, gameplay preview. Check also some nighttime gameplay looks really atmospheric.

Compared to what though? The Witcher? Skyrim? The competition isn't bringing much more compelling combat, sorry. The Witcher 2 is probably the only modern fantasy RPG that I'd recognize as having better art direction, but the monster designs here are much better than anything I've ever killed in the woodlands of Skyrim. I don't really get the criticism.. but like you said, it's like, your opinion man.

That video was my first introduction to the game and pretty much sold me on the whole thing.

I just checked out the gameplay preview - well, like the first 3 mins - and I'm a fan of the levitating mage. Will check the rest out when I have some more free time.

I still think the combat looks incredibly standard and, well, uninspiring. I'm not really comparing it to anything, just saying what I thought when I watched the combat in action. And the design/art of the world itself is one of the most important things for me in a fantasy RPG, and in DD it looks incredibly bland imo.

Oh yes it does, I barely could finish Amalur.
DD looks way more appealing than Amalur, but combatwise...I dont know, I guess playing the demo will tell.

The art is very close to the manga Berserk, have that medieval fantasy look with alot of awesome capes!
But then again, in Japan, pre-ordering gets you the actual Berserk main character equipment in DD and they are using Berserk commercial along this game so its obvious where the devs got its insperation from.

I for one like the realistic look for the art, especially the armor/clothing, gotta love those cape/cloaks, looks and moves great during motion.

Maybe because you are not used to great hit detection and things like that?

Somehow you keep waiting for the sword to go through the enemy with no reaction whatsoever to like it?

I don't know man Im just trying to rationalize your toughts here.

What's that got to do with anything? I haven't come in here declaring Skyrim to have the greatest combat system of all time.

I think this game's combat looks dull, and the world is incredibly uninspiring and bland. I'll look over those vids I haven't viewed yet to see if that changes my mind at all, but that's my opinion based on the numerous videos I've seen.

It just looks dull.

I've seen videos like this:

And just gone... meh. Boring.

Well the genre isn't teeming with great action combat :) It looks to have more action and more diversity than your average action RPG.
