Jeanne D'Arc is the Best RPG this year
The right analog stick I think is totally redeemed by the RPG elements. I mean I was once a world of warcraft addict and the combat in that game to me was as enjoyable as the combat in any game out there be it ninja gaiden or devil may cry and it had a lot to do with the depth to the skill trees and I just never got over the feeling of putting equipping some cool new item. Too Human appears to be leaning in the direction to do such a thing so only time will tell.
I think what SK is attempting to bring together in this game is a recipe for success they just need to nail it and its looking good so far with polishing needed in places.

It's not my fault they still are selling the game as an action game. WTF do they expect?
Regardless, I don't know their excuse for horrible animations everywhere (cutscenes are barely passable I guess), horrible shadowing, special fx, and particles (fire looks downright awful, but I guess that qualifies as a texture as it is closer to a sprite than anything else).
All they really have to do is as simple as having a jungle in the Sahara. Basically, a complete makeover for some of this crap. Oh, and perhaps change the game description at the official site, 'cause that talks about an action game. I think it's downright ridiculous the information they gave vendors, take ebgames for example.
"Fight as the powerful cybernetic god Baldur battling his way through enemy armies"
"From weaponry and armor to combat techniques and combos"
"Explosive melee and firearms combat."
"Utilize a sophisticated blend of seamless melee and firearms combat to vanquish foes near and far."
"Experience the full excitement of combat through a dynamically driven presentation system that portrays the combat with cinematic quality."
"New level of accessibility through intuitive combat. Perform Baldur’s elaborate and complex combat maneuvers through the press of a button and chain together hundreds of rapid-fire attacks and combos with ease. Through the use of an intuitive combat system, “Too Human” delivers gameplay that is easy to learn and rewarding to master. “Too Human” will introduce combinations of weapons combat on a level that exceeds some fighting games, leaving players in awe."
Is it really my fault that I was expecting something else? Did you see the that last paragraph? WTF is this travesty?
It seems like in mid development they said, "you know what our action game sucks, now let's have the RPG elements take over and say it's an RPG with action elements"
Blah, I guess some of you may enjoy that, but not me--at least not the way it is. Why can't it be both? Why is it so hard to make it at least decent in combat? I'm not asking for an incredibly deep combat system, I just want something that is a bit less of an awful bunch of cut in half animations that really convey no sense of.....action, nothing, the whole gameplay aside from the RPG elements looks pretty much broken.
I'm not writing off this game yet, they have some time, but I'm not holding my breath. They've had soooooo long and it looks like every week the game is fixed in some way and broken in others. I still think it's too early for them to be showing Too Human, it is once again doing more damage than good with a lot of people.
I would even take Conan's combat system than what I'm seeing right now, and believe me, I thought Conan was BAD!
@Denis Dyack and his interview
You get tired to play Ninja Gaiden? LOL. I'm tired of your damn excuses, now that's tiring. "My game is misunderstood!" Not my fault fool.
Mods, stop changing my SIG! I'm going to end up banning you!
Seriously...when Conan's animation is not only better but destroys the animation in your game, something's definitely wrong.
TH also looks like it suffers from lacking any sense of weight to its combat. I'd wonder if that was a result of the poor animation, but HS had the same shortcoming despite great animation.
Ron that would be awesome for a game to have wow's depth and devil may cry and ninja gaiden combat, but I don't know how practical that is. According to Gamespot there are thousands of weapons I can't see anyone putting in that much animation work to be honest :/
Lair looked like a trainwork the entire time it was in development to me and never looked good once. This game on the otherhand admittedly started out looking like a trainwreck, but it looks to be well on the path to redeeming itself. I originally thought the rpg elements would be just a bullet point for the game, but they are over-delivering there I think. Will have to see how the rest ends up it is afterall a 2008 title. I don't expect too much to change, but I do expect improvements and its looking good to me thus far.
I think a large part of the backlash here is that Too Human turns out to not be the type of game some people here were expecting and now that it's fully revealed people refuse to accept it and as a result have lost interest. I knew since the IGN showing it would end not mattering how good or bad this game looked I knew some people weren't going to like it.

I'm pretty sure I could find many other examples of a developer or publisher talking up or overexaggerating aspects of their game to make it sound more amazing. People do that all the time. Normally people don't take them all literally. I mean imagine what factor 5 said about lair? What did midway say about stranglehold? It comes with the territory. We know what SK use to say about Too Human and now we see what they are saying now and we actually have videos to make us see what it is. It's an RPG with action elements gotta move on. Anyway thats my last comment about that if some new footage shows up I'll comment then :)
Wish we got some full cutscenes :(

Well I know how I want to make my armor.
Its a mix between the "iconic" Baldur and the N7 armor from Mass Effect.
All black armor with a different color on the lines and such :D.
Anyway, cool stuff Ops.
Now imagine that and a lot more through DLC :D
PS3: MGS4 - Metal Gear Online - Killzone 2 - Uncharted - Haze - DMC4 - God of War 3
360: Mass Effect - Assassin's Creed - Call of Duty 4 - DMC4 - Dark Sector - Ninja Gaiden 2 - Too Human - Fable 2 - Resident Evil 5

I expect them to toss in one of those moments like how Baldur climbs up on that big troll like enemy with the hammer.
I'll be very interested in seeing what kinds of tricks they have up their sleeves. Another thing I really enjoyed about these videos is the scene I saw in the teamxbox vid where it appears Baldur was after someone the same size as him the guy had one eye it appears. Thats what I like to see them toss a bunch of quests at us, but tie some nicely into the game's story.

If Dyack want epic story with epic battles and such, he HAVE to add that enemy as a gameplay boss, would be awesome.
Ps. I want that poster in my room :D
PS2. Op, the armor I was thinking is already showned off :D

It reminds me of that as well, and God of War, but cooler :P

I agree szaromir this is of course reminding me of why I liked World of Warcraft so much, but I simply didn't have the time for it considering other than all the cool stuff you collect it just keeps going nonstop. Now Too Human I'm very excited about the same things that made me become hooked to WOW, but then there is the unique take on Norse Mythology to think about and the glimpses we've gotten thus far for how SK appears to be handling this game storywise look pretty good to me thus far, but still need to see much more.
As some others have said though if Eternal Darkness is any indication then I suppose we shouldn't be worried and SK is one of those devs that take their stories very seriously so probably it makes no sense to worry about that. They've said before they've had the story planned out well in advance and I'm sure with time things probably got better. All in all really looking forward to this one.
I think they've actually yet to show us one of the giants and the closest they've come to talking about one thus far is probably Jormungandr the World Serpent.
Yea that poster should definitely be included with the game. Yea Sath that armor is incredible.

But seriously, I like the art very much, and that it reminds me of big enemy battles from God of War and SOTC its a good thing.
